    How to remove these stains from the rims?

    I think the stain is actually the paint primer, I tried MUC on a test spot and ended up with some black flake spots which I think is the paint that is gone (the flakes are smooth with no raised/dip edge), now I think the original stains are not really stains, it's the primer that is visible:(. I...

    Newbie learning paint correction/glazing, Looking for knowledge and opinion

    It’s not that bad but not good either, plus it took me three stages to take it to this level which I don’t think is good for the paint and plus I spent at least hour and half to do just the hood! Lol!

    Newbie learning paint correction/glazing, Looking for knowledge and opinion

    Yea I noticed the machine only goes up to 4 rather than 6 and I knew about the marking the backer by reading the articles here but I guess I never thought about it the way you explained. So do you think the DA is still ok to do my project with right pad? I appreciate you Mike, I will PM you my...

    Newbie learning paint correction/glazing, Looking for knowledge and opinion

    Thanks Mike, as I was suspicious and you mentioned and the subject treads, no quality pads and polish was the main reason of not getting the results I was expecting. My DA is Torq 10FX with 5.5 backing, I guess now I need to get the right pads and compound that was pointed out in the treads to...

    How to remove these stains from the rims?

    Yes it’s their fault, but I haven’t brought it up to them yet as I haven’t took it for first service yet but also as PaulMys said they may make it worst or just offer to repaint them which is the last thing I want them to do. I will give the polish a try, I am not sure if it works as it looks...

    How to remove these stains from the rims?

    I purchased a new Infiniti 3 months ago and dealer had the tires dressed with some cheap material that must have spilled on the rim and stained them, so far my detailer used even some wheel acid with no luck and he did not want to push it more and cause any damage to its clear coat. Only one...

    How to remove Meguier’s Hybrid ceramic wax from skin?!

    I applied Meguiars HCW to my car and even though I had gloves during the process of cleaning towels some must have got on my hands and now I have this rubbery feeling on the skin :)). Is there any practical way to clean it from skin? I tried Orange gel, it’s better but not gone.

    Water Etching with Ceramic Coated PPF

    Before attempting to recoat with Halo, I want to try CarPro Water spot remover and see how deep are the marks, if they are easy to come off and just need some minor maintenance after each hand wash then I may stick to EXO until next maintenance schedule that I will have with my detailer. The...

    Water Etching with Ceramic Coated PPF

    Thanks for your input Mike. I actually forgot to mention after application of EXO and getting water marks on the fenders, he came and buffed the water marks off and applied C2 Spray on product rather than EXO and it seems that it has kind of resolved the issue on the fenders, that's why I am...

    Water Etching with Ceramic Coated PPF

    Hi There, I have a black Infiniti Q70 with full nose Suntek Ultra PPF, I had a local detailer ceramic coated the car except the PPF with Gtechniq Lite and applied Gtechniq Exo to the PPF as Lite was not bonding to the film. Now I have a new issue with this combination on the PPF, whenever it...

    Is this reasonable quote for Ceramic?

    I agree with you, IMO paint correction and prep work is the most important part, and not to downplay ceramic application but I would think 90% of the ceramic application process is in the prep work. Also a lot of detailers only say they will apply ceramic let say for $450 but all you get is a...
