Pep Boys had them if you have one around you.

What`s some of the good stuff that everyone uses on interior, dash etc. I have a black interior and don`t want real shiny or oiliness, just a satin luster. I`d like to have something that would last a couple months if possible.

I have Meguiars 205 I use on our 2 new cars. Meguiars 205 lets you polish until it gets to the level you need, they have a longer work time, many other polishes their particles diminish and only last so long before you have to reapply more polish to the da. The Meguiars 105 compound and the 205...

If you don`t want to do some compounding to remove those scratches you will need to apply a glaze. Glazes have a filling ability to help hide those fine scratches. You apply the glaze before the wax/sealant. If you`ve been using Meguiars then there are many products they have. compounding and...

Ya, I never get to close with it and use a wide tip but I never heard anyone discussing whether p. washers have a detrimental effect on wax/sealant. Now, I`ve got it in my mind that P.Wash. may remove wax. :confused: not good. I was looking to purchase a new P. Washer and was trying to...

It just occurred to me that if you use a pressure washer to wash the car, that`s about 2500 or more will it have a negative effect on the wax/sealer, could the pressure remove some of the wax/sealant?

I`ll make it unanimous the pressure washer is no doubt the key. You must get off all the grains of matter before rubbing on your paint. Once removed then a good quality car soap and wash will do it.

If I remember correctly it`s like 2 1/2 hp. from a standard outlet that you have described, I could be off a bit. But is a 5hp. motor a 5hp motor in the first place? I have a real 5hp motor running one of my compressors, now thats a real 5hp motor. The thing to remember is that these Vacs are...

Meguairs 205 is good stuff....

The Groits paint prep will clean you paint to get it ready for wax/sealant. Next you should do a "plastic bag test", put your hand in a ziplock or any thin plastic, like a grocery bag and wipe the palm of your hand across the paint and if you feel a sandy roughness then you need to clay the car...

Great minds think alike:xyxthumbs:

No that isn`t a problem, sometimes it takes longer to get thick again, plus it is supposed to be a relatively thin liquid or you can`t use it. The way I use it is I purchased some 2 oz. plastic squeeze dispensers at Michaels [ a craft chain ] these are perfect because it only takes 1 oz. to do...

Stripping is using a product that takes off all the waxes/sealants and gets down to the bare paint. You do this so the sealant will bond much better with the paint, it will last longer also. There are paint cleaners, and some liquid solutions made to do this stripping. Some will use a clay...

Lots of confusing threads. First there are 3 types of waxes/sealants... 1. paste 2. liquid. 3 spray wax...........Meguiars Ultimate wax comes in all three.. If you want a spray wax for maintenance to use in between waxes then Megs. Ultimate spray wax is a great product, now if you want to save...

Ah ha....from Honda's to Camaros. Car looks good.

What could one say about the job you do. Pictures are worth a thousand words. I haven`t seen any better. Is there anyone going to ask what your favorite products are. Ok I will.

Liquid detail spray is made by many Mfg`s, it`s used after the wash on the paint it spruces up the paint and is good at adding a bit cleaning to the stubborn contaminants. It has some polymers in it., to re-enforce the wax, it`s a simple mist on and wipe off.

I`ve used NXT for many years and one of the main reasons I used it was it`s simply the easiest sealer to remove that I`ve ever used. I always make sure it`s dry [ usually 20 min. ] by doing a swipe test before I remove it. It has a great shine. And since I put it on with a orbital I can make...

Frankly I think you should offer 3 washes. $20/30/40. 1. $20 exterior with floor vacuum. 2.$30 the above with inside door step plates and a detail spray wipe down. 3. The above plus vacuum seats, wipe dash inside windows. Have a extra $10 liquid spray wax it doesn`t take much longer than a...

The main advantage is, you won`t have to worry about adding air to the tires, Ni. keeps the same tire pressure a long time. Slightly better fuel economy. Alittle better tire wear only if you have the proper tire pressure in from the beginning. Drawback is the ride suffers, harder ride. It`s...
