I have Mother's tire brush and I use Mother's tire cleaner. The tire cleaner does an awesome job but I just dislike the brush. It doesn't suit me ergonomically. Is there any other brush that one uses and can recommend? Thanks in advance. Edit: Anyone used hard bristles attachment for a...

I am going to spend around $750 on new rubber for my 2015 Forester. I would like to take care of the side walls so that they do not gather as much salt during winter and prevent browning eventually. I understand that browning is nothing but antioxidants doing their job but it looks ugly. I can...

That also makes very much sense. Almost every parking spot in our development is under the tree. While I take care of most of the sap as soon as I see, I don't check the roof every now and then. On the other hand, at my wife's work, there is not a single tree so whichever sap or bird droppings...

Thank you, folks. Is there any chance that this could spread? I will just leave it like that for now. There is one more spot like this in the middle of the roof. I will have to get the ladder to go up and check it thoroughly.

No, one part cleaner, 3 parts water. The auto detailing world uses exactly the opposite of what is used in chemistry. It confused me a lot until I watched Mike Phillips' video where he showed the bottle and the dilution. I would call it 1:3 and not 3:1.

While doing a biweekly waterless wash, I came across this spot, just above the windshield, behind the moonroof. It is difficult to take a clear shot as it is in the middle of the car. Does it look like cracked clear coat or a rock hitting that area? It is 2015 Subaru Forester. zoomed in...

Wow, thats a total turnaround. I don't understand how people can wait till the cars end up like this! I would REALLY like it if anyone can make a video on this. I would like to clean the hood and trunk channels of my cars but have never been successful.

If this is not the right place, pls move to appropriate section or delete the thread. I was wondering if anyone uses APC for anything other than auto detailing. I am trying to see if I can consolidate cleaners at home. We have a carpet cleaner spray (Folex), carpet cleaner that goes into carpet...

There is a dedicated forum for dashcams. That is one of the best resource. There is no shortage of dashcams and new are coming up daily, with newer features. All depends on which features you are looking for and how much are you willing to spend for that. for consumer grade, I have older...

Yes, it does. I should have mentioned that. I will give a try to q-tip method as well. Thanks.

The red arrow is what I am trying to apply this conditioner to, but on the sides. The picture is a top view and that part can be easily applied to but this seal is wrapped around the sunroof glass. I don't know if it can damage on the side too, the side that is not accessible. This may be the...

Thank you, everyone, for the comments. It is interesting that there are 2 distinct opinions. I washed in hot water but air dried because I do not have washing facilities in the apartment. There are laundromats in the development and I use primarily for washing MF towels only because it has...

I am trying to apply Nextzett Rubber Care Stick Gummi Pflege to the seals around the 2015 Forester sunroof. I can easily apply to the front edge of the seal but the sides and receding edge is not accessible at all (other than the fine edge on the top). Is there any way to apply to these areas...

I use Costco's microfiber towels for most of wiping business. For buffing, I have Rag Company's edgeless towels. I wash these towels using regular Costco brand's detergent. The dirt left on the towel was after the rinseless wash using Wolfgang Uber wash. I usually run the towels through water...

I am aware of the fact that WETS is favorite of the board when it comes to trim sealants, but I still searched a bit on the board. I came across this post (https://www.autogeekonline.net/forum/auto-detailing-101-a/111726-plastic-trim-i-need-help.html#post1512872 and a 4 month follow-up in the...

I am sorry, I should have been clear upfront. I did perform chemical and mechanical decon before Klasse twins application and I do plan to perform for another car too. Thank you for the warning about Ultima spray wax. I will have to go with idiot-proof spray. My issue with Raynaud can get so...

I detailed one of my vehicles with Klasse AIO and Klasse Sealant. I will be detailing another one in next couple of days. I will be performing a rinseless wash on both the vehicles using Wolfgang Uber Rinseless wash every weekend and going to apply KlasseAct's Frankendetailer (1oz of Rinseless...

Thank you, folks. Appreciate all comments. The car hasn't been through Swirl-O-Matic in a couple of years now, since I learned how it scratches the paint and started reading AutoGeek. Our situation is pretty much like your mom, we park under the sky 24/7 and live near a busy street so even if...

Thank you for that information. Pretty sure, the manufacturers must be cutting corners on econoboxes. I don't plan to polish it at all. In the morning, I was very confused with such a dirty pad and thought that I messed up somewhere, hence posted a question.

Thank you, folks. And as always Mike P. to the rescue. Thank you. I suspect, in this process, the rinseless wash didn't do a very good job. After I posted this thread, I went back to do the hood. I repeated the roof process with half of the hood, the same results. (Apologies, it didn't occur...
