Depends wholly on the severity of the etching but Uric acid (the nasty stuff in bird droppings) can be deep if not removed quickly. Starting with the least aggressive method may be best. Therefore, i might begin with Ultimate Polish. It all depends on the etching which i cannot see. A...

There can be no single paint correction formula to solve all types of paint! Even two cars painted back to back in the same factory can have DRASTICALLY differing paint down the road. For example... Two of the exact model cars, say 5 years old, painted back to back in the same factory can...

Keep in mind a few steps to help effectively remove dirt from carpet: 1] to vacuum then loose debris off first 2] vigorously dry brush the carpet in a cos hatching fashion -- east to west then north to south. Then re-vacuum. Doing this can remove up to 72% of all dirt particles from the...

YESSSSS!!!! +100000 /rant this is also why i ALWAYS suggest AGAINST dark rims when people ask my opinion. Sure they look GREAT in boxes at the shop, but after weeks of weather and driving and no cleaning they are a nightmare. Plus, on German cars especially, that brake dust can make them look...

Richy, youre starting to bore me with this consistent high level of work. Why dont you step it up already ?!?!? :laughing: :caflag:

Another for D156 here. Not only is it a VERY durable standalone LSP, its TRIM SAFE..... and BEST BANG FOR THE BUCK!!!! :cheers:

I would definitely switch ASAP the 5" pads as Bobby G said because: With any pad, the further away the edge of the pad is from the center-point the less pressure and support it will have. Think about trying to support a regular piece of paper with 2 hands. Should be easy enough to keep it...

Its Impossible to have an all in one solution for Carpet, just as is the case with paint... Therefore a whole new mentality is needed to realize that soiling inside the car has 3 pain causes. These are: 1] Tannins [organic plant matter] 2] Protein based stains 3] Oil & Grease Therefore, what...

I wasnt implying that he wasnt doing test spots.... It was more of the stream of consciousness writing and generalized thought process for anyone following the thread

IF i missed this then disregard.. But why not use M205 AFTER M101 to gloss that baby up? Time restraint? M101 is lightning rocks in a bottle. Its literally the king of aggressive compounds. I can only imagine how much more clarity and gloss would have be obtained with a few passes per panel...

Sounds like softer paint to me. If a finish polish or towel is leaving scratches then the paint would tend to be soft. Secondly, use LESS polish. If finicky and wipe off is an issue, reduce this problem by lowering the amount of product. ESPECIALLY on softer paints. The more product used the...

Are you talking about edge work? If so, in general, i prefer to edge first with the 3 inch, then blend with the larger throw of my 21 to have a more consistent look throughout the job.

:iagree: Just be careful of the D143 on aluminum and powder coated rims.. its good for all OEM with clear coats on them

Re: Detailing for the non-enthusiastsp I agree. DO the work and push the level of your craft for YOURSELF. Those of us who do this professionally ALL know that the majority of people simply dont understand or dont care. I mean look at the average car. Its in swirl and bird etch purgatory...

:iagree: x100 Mine as well.. For a spray wax it is properties as an LSP rival many traditional paste waxes and its completely trim safe... Great for any professional detailing arsenal :pc7424:

1. DRY BRUSH ALL CARPETED SURFACES.... BEFORE & AFTER..... remove the MAJORITY dirt from the carpet and mats BEFORE adding water. This will make for less working time and more efficient cleaning of the surface. Then after the rinsing of a shampoo session, back brush the carpet to enable the...

Meguiars D114 if im performing paint correction. D115 for anything else where gloss enhancing properties are ok.

Pipuk im in your camp.... but alas no matter how many time the subject is talked about and surface tension, residue films left behind and the chemical composition of things. People for some reason REFUSE to give up on the notion that certain car washes/detergents can strip. I have no idea...
