    folding towel 4 ways

    Its all your guys fault. It wasnt until finding this forum that I would use an LED light to look for scratches or find myself folding my restaurant napkin 4 ways, lol. In addition to that I am dead certain my neighbors all think I am nuts. They think I am never finished with the detail and dont...

    Detail Spray

    Do you guys use detail spray to wipe down the car if there is just a light dust on the paint? When I say light I mean after a fresh detail and drove the car once so there is just some stuff that settled on the paint. This is a garaged truck so no morning dew to stick the dust to the paint or...

    is this any good????

    I dont need a blower I have an air compressor for that or a leaf blower. I was thinking of just a wet/dry vac from Lowes but they dont have the attachments and the hose is low quality compared to the Metro. Well I think I may just get it since I currently have nothing at all other then the...

Before I make my choice I want to know if...

    No Rinse & Foam Guns, Why?

    To get soap on the paint before touching it is the main goal for me. I want as much debris to come off before rubbing the paint by hand. With my foam gun I also plan to spray it just ahead of the wash mitt as pictured on the AG store site.

    towels?

    I bought tons of high quality cotton towels because I was told they are no risk for scratching vs MF towels that can trap and not let go of debris. I am having a heck of a time getting the cotton to remove my LSP and the smears I am having I think are related to the cotton towels. Please...

    Great read. I guess a more to the point question is if it was a bad idea or dangerous to use swirl remover because it in fact did remove some clear coat? I imagine all you guys on here that do this means that its not an issue. I just wonder for a better understanding how many times you could...

    So you only use swirl remover once and dont ever do it again? My plan is to use the AIO from here on out unless something new comes up then I can hit that area by hand with the swirl remover. I just wondered about reapplying the polish/wax etc to match that spot to the rest of the car after. I...

    Mike: The Zaino swirl remover was hard to use because when you remove the product it leaves behind a milky look to the paint. Apparently this is normal and obviously once you go to the next step it comes out nice. The issue is its hard to see that all the fine scratches are removed because its...

    To the other Newbies above: I used an orange Lake Country Flat Pad with my swirl remover product. And yes that is my daily driver 2010 corolla in the back ground and right now the only thing clean on it is the hood and bumper because I practiced on it before touching my truck with the PC, lol...

    Well I have to say that although I did not use AG product I did buy lots of stuff from them in terms of tools and pads etc. I was scared to death to use a PC for the first time and I think I drove the forum nuts with questions and the least I can do is throw up some pics and say a BIG THANK...

    Wrong choices?

    I had pretty good success finally. I had to go back to "by hand" because I reaplized after some thought that Zaino is meant to be applied by hand. I did use the ZPC swirl remover by machine and the cut was fine with the orange LC flat pad but the product is thin and meant to be easy to apply by...

    Wrong choices?

    I am getting better at it now but when there are curves if the edge of the pad runs into that curve it stops. My technique is getting better and I am using the 5.5 flat pads. What is driving me crazy is that even though I got rid of most all the fine lines there still are a few here and there...

    Wrong choices?

    Well I broke my cherry and am out working this weekend using the PC. I am starting to wonder if I should have bought the Flex. The fact the PC stops spinning in more challenging areas drives me nuts. I am managing it but I think something like the Flex that doesnt stop rotating would make this...

    How to use Foam gun

    Autogeek Half Gallon Foam Gun with FREE BONUS This is the one I bought. I didnt realize too much soap would degrade the LSP but I feel better using the same product line for my car soap and LSP. I still dont understand what the dial is for on the top. I get what the slider bar does in terms...
