    Shelf Life of Menzerna P091E Polish

    Forgot to add that polish has been stored in an unheated garage, but I seriously doubt the temp has ever dropped below freezing. It does get down to upper 30s. I keep up with this since half the garage is a work shop where I spend alot of time.

    I've got an unopened bottle of Menzerna P091E that has been on my shelf for about 5 years. Anyone know of about the shelf-life?

    Daily Use of Car Cover

    I don't use a cover but am considering it. Not daily but pretty close. My vehicle is a white truck. Not sure what difference the color makes but will follow the thread closely.

    New vehicle delivery questions

    I'd definitely go with touchless or nothing at all. I took my truck through one of those washes where the cloth (?) strips flap all over the vehicle a few weeks ago. My truck took a beating but I didn't notice any damage. My truck is a 2006 and white doesn't show alot. I'd never have done...

    Looking for a new Polisher

    I've only gotten real serious about keeping my vehicles in tip top condition within the past year. I had an old Wen 10" Orbital and a Dewalt 849x. The Wen was basically useless to me and I was afraid to use the Dewalt. I only had the wool pads and didn't know that I could get foam pads. I...

    Sheeting of water, Black and Decker 240/180 mph, 385 cfm electric leaf blower, touch up with Meguiar's waffle weave microfiber towel, light coat of Meguiar's Quick Wax (most of the time). Just learned about the rinseless wash today and may give it a try soon.

    how is my technique and supplies

    I'm going to try youtube and google but can you explain (or tell me where to get info) on this technique. I don't want to sound too stupid, but I'm not familiar with it. I understand the distilled water but not the rinse less wash. P.S. Never mind. I just found something on this website...

    how is my technique and supplies

    Unfortunately, I have the same problem with hard water. I just try to get the stuff off before it dries. I recently added an electric leaf blower (180/240 mph, 385 cfm) to my washing routine and it seems to be working fine. Not sure how much it speeds things up but it does a pretty good job...

    Wheel Damage

    Rubbed against a curb and slightly damaged a wheel on my Altima SV. I don't think the repair will be difficult but I'd like to know if anyone has advice. I posted a couple of pictures. My primary question is how to find the color/type of touch up paint to use. I've seen some of the kits from...

    Best vacuum?

    I use my Ridgid 5 hp, 16 gallon shop vac with the Ridgid Premium car cleaning kit accessory. The accessory has a fairly long, smaller than standard, flexible hose. The attachments are useful as well. The hose is alot easier to work with than the standard and attachments are designed for car...

    My name is Gary and I'm from Murfreesboro, TN, about 35 miles southeast of Nashville. I'm 61 and have some health issues but I do enjoy keeping our vehicles in decent shape.
