    Am I use Aquawax wrong?

    I just checked most of my microfibers against some glass, and it seems most leave some sort of streaking/linting except the cobra waffle weaves. Not sure if that's a MF nap related issue. I only washed my MFs together with proper MF detergent and only dried together with no dryer sheets...

    Am I use Aquawax wrong?

    Any recommendations? The above fellow was having linting issues with high quality brand/towels, I'm curious if the quality control on these towels is so bad they you really get that many duds? If that's the case, that's a little ridiculous. Sure I didn't spend that much for this 3 pack but...

    Am I use Aquawax wrong?

    Is this something another wash might help with? Also I used 2 oz of Micro Restore which is supposed to be for heavier loads and my load was more on the medium/low end. Not sure if that makes a lick of difference I just figured 2 oz = more cleaning power. Aside from that, I'm out of ideas.

    Am I use Aquawax wrong?

    *Correction to first post* These are the towels I bought, I clicked the wrong link originally. It's probably a moot point but here they are anyway. Super Soft Deluxe Green Microfiber Towels with Rolled Edges, microfiber buffing towels, micro fiber

    Am I use Aquawax wrong?

    These are the micro fibers I bought: Super Soft Deluxe Green Microfiber Towels with Rolled Edges, microfiber buffing towels, micro fiber I figured they can't be that bad. The only thing that strikes me as odd, is I had the same linting problem with the Aquawax and a different type/set of...

    Am I use Aquawax wrong?

    If I had to go through the trouble of having to machine wax my car after washing, I'd rather just go with a more durable/longer-lasting product than Aquawax. I just wanted to incorporate the Aquawax into my drying step as a little added protection that might last maybe a month at the most. Just...

    Yes, microfiber towels were only washed with other microfiber towels use only Micro Restore MF detergent.

    Am I use Aquawax wrong?

    Towels were washed with Micro Restore detergent only (Micro-Restore doesn’t just clean microfiber, it restores microfiber!) and were dried on very very low heat/air dry with no dryer sheets. I thought it was the towels but other towels that I've had forever were doing the same thing. I used...

    Am I use Aquawax wrong?

    I tried two different types of microfiber towels with the same effect. I'm pretty sure I'd consider it lint. It's like tiny microfiber hairs being left behind when wiping. I thought it was because the microfiber was new and had to be "broken in" but I tried a well used microfiber that's been...

    Am I use Aquawax wrong?

    So I ordered Aquawax (951) to top with after car washes when I seal my car for the winter with Duragloss 601/105 later this season. I decided to try just the Aquawax a little early. I ordered a bottle of ONR as well so I decided to do my first ever rinse-free car wash this morning. Using a two...

    Up Close & Personal: Detailer's Paint Coating

    Thanks for the input. Reason I asked is because I finally thought I had figured out what exact combination of products I wanted to use, especially to prep the car for winter. Only to dismay, I overlooked a particular product, or in this case product category you could say. Nevertheless, if I do...

    Up Close & Personal: Detailer's Paint Coating

    So I just purchased some Duragloss 105, 601 and AW. Then I stumbled on this thread. I was going to try the combination out for a solid winter prep, and then wondered to myself whether this coating would do the same job and possibly better. Would there be any reason to use a combo like...

    What are my options for this scratch/chip?

    I am located in Connecticut. Also if this were the case, I would have no problem helping and/or paying for the work/expertise. I'm just not looking to pay $500 for a scratch.

    What are my options for this scratch/chip?

    I'm really at a crossroad with this. Although I don't mind putting in time and getting it done slowly so it's barely noticeable, I don't want it to look like crap and stand out especially since this would be my first time attempting something of this nature. On the other hand, I just can't...

    What are my options for this scratch/chip?

    Would there be any issues with the clear bonding with the rest of the clear already on the door? Also would this restore it to an almost flawless finish and relatively unnoticeable? If I went to get this professionally done, what ballpark estimate do you think I could be looking at? I asked my...

    What are my options for this scratch/chip?

    Hey guys, So I have a scratch in my rear driver-side door. Also a rock chip on my passenger-side a-pillar. The scratch clearly fails the fingernail test so it definitely won't buff out. Though, it does looks like there is still some color in the heart of the scratch so maybe it dug in as far as...
