    My 4-in-1 Review

    I have use S&W which is really good for spot cleaning. Like if there is just a little dirt/dust behind one of my tires. But for doing a large job like this, it would be very inefficient.

    My 4-in-1 Review

    The second bucket was just 1/2 full with water. I just sprayed the real dirty sections of the car to make sure that the dirt was properly lubricated. My car was about as dirty as it ever gets. I would imagine it would do most dirty cars without a problem. If there were lots of caked on dirt...

    My 4-in-1 Review

    Seems like these 4-in-1 (FIO) are coming pretty quickly now. Well it rained here in Fl yesterday and it seems that all the roads in my area are dusty and the car gets gross after a rain shower. So I just got my 1 gal of FIO and went to work in the garage. Took about 45 mins max. Process: -...

    I'm stuck...help please

    You might want to try a clay with a little more bite to it. Probably something like Wolfgang's Elastic Clay or DP Clay. I have some poly clay on order, but I believe it is designed to be used much more frequently and isn't as powerful as a medium clay. Someone with more experience can chime in...

    Super Slick and Suds or Optimum car wash

    Based on others experiences, I ordered a gallon of SS&S without trying it.

    Look what I got - Paste Glaz.

    So why hunt down Paste Glaz as opposed to Pinnacle's new offerings?

    Detailed: 2004 Toyota Tacoma (56k beware)

    It took about 8 hours because I was playing teacher as well as detailer. I only used AIO to take off any wax and other stuff that was on the paint before I put on the DP Shield. I didn't use Liquid Souveran because I don't have any. I use Souveran Paste on my car and we just wanted to protect...

    Detailed: 2004 Toyota Tacoma (56k beware)

    They look similar, but the AA is a little "blingier". It still looks really good though. I wanted to try something different because the Pinnacle is expensive and his tires are huge.

    Detailed: 2004 Toyota Tacoma (56k beware)

    So my neighbor asked if I could help get his new used Tacoma ready for a trip up to SC that he is taking. He bought the truck a month or so ago and it's been kept outside without being washed. I forgot to take some before pictures, but the car was really dirty. The rims where really dark grey...

    What are these lines in my paint??

    Ok, thanks guys. I just wanted to make sure that I didn't burn through my clear. Which I was under the impression is pretty difficult with a PC. I'll try to get them off over the weekend. Would this be remedied with a fine polish (XMT 1 on white pad) or should I use something slightly more...

    What are these lines in my paint??

    I had my car in the sun today for the first time in a week or so and I noticed these lines in my hood. They appear to be lighter in color then the rest of the hood. They happen to be where I tried to get some light swirls out with my PC XMT2/LC Orange pad combo. You can see the lines right next...

    Foam gun test: DP Extreme Foam vs. Megs NXT

    I'd say it is even. However, I doubt that the DP will be as harsh on wax as the NXT was.

    DP 4-in-1 Review-1969 Camaro

    That's a real pretty car and as always you made it look great. I agree with the above poster that those wheels need to be removed. The car is sitting too high and the sidewalls are too thick.

    Megs NXT

    It does. I just did a mini-review type thing. I hit it with some Crystal Mist and the shine popped right back. However, it would be easier to avoid this extra step. I wash my car every week, so this week I am going to try Meg's Gold Class which is supposed to be gentler. Most people here love...

    Foam gun test: DP Extreme Foam vs. Megs NXT

    You guys are correct. Some of my protection does feel like it went away. The slickness of my paint is reduced, but there doesn't seem to be any loss in shine. I have some Meg's GC that I want to try out next. I tried some Zaino wash and it worked good, but it's expensive and I'd rather support...

    Foam gun test: DP Extreme Foam vs. Megs NXT

    I just got my foam gun in the mail last week and it came with a sample of DP Extreme Foam car wash. I posted some pictures in my show and shine post last week and promised that I would try NXT in the gun and report back. Both shampoos were used on the max foam setting. I don't have any...

    M#9 by hand ( Pics in here )

    Awesome car. I think GM is thinking about bringing it to the States. I would definitely look at one. Here's my Holden....for the most part.

    Pics are a little shaky, but it looks real nice. What kind of car is it??

    What's the trick to cleaning inside of windshields?

    I just started using DP Krystal Vision with a Cobra glass towel. I was previously using IG with a MF. The DP was the first cleaner that was able to completely get all the haze out of my windows. It is definitely some amazing stuff.
