Try cleaning a section with OPC 3:1 first, then claying.

Detailing plans???

Applying Opti-Coat is the easy part. There's lots of prep before...

Aquapel worked for me.

Below are the buckets I got a few days ago Grit Guard® Dual Bucket Washing System - CLEAR In the pic below, the guard is pushed as far down in the bucket as reasonably possible. It's difficult to see, but there's enough space under the guard for the detail brush. The guard is not resting on...

Thanks guys. The bucket manufacturer is Leaktite. The exterior diameter of the bottom of the bucket is 10 1/4" There are three problems with the gritguard not going all the way to the bottom of the bucket: - The edges of the gritguard will compress against the sides of the bucket. This makes...

I got the AG grit guard dual bucket washing system recently and the grit guards don't fit all the way in the buckets. Since it called the "Grit Guard ... System" I had assumed... Not good AG!

Ha! I got the AG dual buckets on wheels set and the included grit guards don't fit!

Yes, 3 parts water (distilled is best) and one part OPC. Commander Duck: that sounds like a good plan, didn't realize you were doing the Eraser prior to the OC. Let us know how it turns out!

From Jason @ Deep Gloss Auto Salon: Duragloss 501 marine polish, then 1 part 601 bonding agent mixed with four parts 111 clear coat, then AquaWax. from rwight: "105 has light cleaners in it, 111 has no cleaners. 111 is also a little finicky with humidity in my experience. 501 can be used as a...

I don't have enough experience with OC yet to be sure, but I think you should be ok to do two cars with one syringe. Like other said, I'd wash with something like OPC 3:1 before the OC'ing.

Especially on white or silver. I probably over-apply just to make sure I'm getting it on there.

Can the wheels be locked so it doesn't roll?

Agree with what was said so far. Stay away from living on the east coast Ft Lauderdale and below. Lots of older people on the west coast from Tampa down You better like heat, it's too often uncomfortably hot in Orlando for me. You should test a summer here to make sure. Lots of tourists like...

Plus you can't see the product on the foam applicator so you don't know if it's getting dry or not.

Any polishes that don't stain trim?

Has was the finish on the bus?

Look at 4' T5 High Output florescent lighting, F54T5 HO bulbs. Sterilite makes some inexpensive but decent plastic garage cabinets, shelves and drawers. Lightweight so it's easy to ship, install, wall mount, etc. Waterproof so it's easy to keep clean. Look at UcoatIt for epoxy flooring. I...

I like AG's natural sea sponge Large Natural Sea Sponge It gets into all the cracks and crevices and nook and crannies better than microfiber (MF) or foam. It rinses out better than MF. MF can hold abrasive materials in it's fibers that can be hard to clean out. These materials could end up...

Small natural sea sponges. They mo' better for getting into cracks and crevices because they scrunch up better than MF. Great for pulling thru ducts and tight spaces. More flexible and expand/contract better than foam and end up covering more surface area. Tougher than most foams. Holds lots of...
