    How many MF towels do you use?

    If you arent sure about re-using a towel, DONT! Like you said you dont want to put swirl back in the clear. Basiclly, use a new one for every chemical you apply and remove.

Its like heaven for washing cars. Oh, and QD are a must this time of year. There is no way to get a...

    What are your all time favorite MF towels

    QuikShine Alternative

    Souveran spray wax is very good! But, it is too expensive for twice a week washing. You cant let it get wet for at least 6h. Sometimes in Orlando that is a problem. I save it for special occasions. :D I have never tryed DP final gloss, everything else I have used from DP has been great. Why...

    What do you like better and why: DG AW or CK QS?

    :iagree: FK425 is the best of both worlds, it cleans and shines very well. The anti-static is great. This weekend I drove from Orlando to Palm beach (160m). It rained the whole way down... Alot of dirt did not stick to my car, I have never seen it look that clean after 2 hours in a FL rain...

    Removing Menz, dust/oils

    <> I was wondering if anyone has used a strong soap to remove the oils and dust that menzerna leaves behind? <> And if so what soap and at what dilution rate? So far all I have been using a 50:50 alcohol wipe, and then washing with a regular dilution of soap. I want to make 2 steps into...

    When to use a paint cleanser?

    U have some options. You can use a cleanser (pinn, or PB) To remove all old wax and sealant. I personaly like this method beause I know my sealant and wax will stick to the clean surface. U can also just use a wax over your old sealant. This is ok, but it is not as good as sealing and waxing a...

    DP Clay

    So what is the verdict? CCS pads or good ole' flat pads?

    I like using the 5.5 inch pads for cutting. And the 6.5 for polishing/finishing. The 5.5 are flat, and low profile. And the 6.5 are CCS pads. I am beginning to think that pads are a matter of personal prefrence. But, you should give ccs another chance, sounds like you got a strange version...

    Pre-wax cleaner/polish?

    I like using cleansing lotions after polishing. If I am not going to use a AIO type product like 360 or 101. But, if I am going to go strait to sealing or waxing. The cleanser really evens out the finish, and removes all the polish residue. If you are going to use a AIO product usually that will...

    What To Look for When Picking A Detailer

    This seems like good advice... Espesialy, look for someone who is independent, and does this for a living. Not, the bargain place down the street that has 5-10 high school kids drying and waxing cars. I am a personal trainer, and it sounds like it would be a big help for you to get in the gym...

    least cure time?, DG101

    I guess a 12h cure time this is one of those rules you just cant break. I will have to let the 101 stay on for at least a day. Thanks for the advice. Mike

    least cure time?, DG101

    Hey, I just used use my foam gun for the first time. It was fun, it will take some getting used to. I started to get the 'lead the mitt' technique. My shmitt did not get very dirty at all on the lower panels. I think that the constant foam helped draw the dirt away from the mitt. I will try it...
