    water spot removal.

    The key with the Chemical Guys water spot remover gel is to use it on a cool surface in the shade and work a small section at a time. Don't let it dry, let it dwell for a minute or two, and remove with a detail spray, car wash soap or a rinseless wash. The gel can be kind of sticky to work with...

    water spot removal.

    Have you tried a liquid or gel water spot remover first? I've had good results with Chemical Guys water spot remover and I hear Labocosmetica Energo also works really good. If that doesn't work, then the next step would be polishing with the least aggressive pad and check the results. If the...

    Ethos Fresh is a really good interior detailer. I like that it's safe on all surfaces including the navigation screen.

    Opinions On ADS Hero

    I did see in the comments of a YouTube video that someone experienced Hero starting to smell funky in a bucket after a few days. Armour responded to the comment and said that they revised the formula based on this feedback with some sort of a preservative, so it doesn't go bad if premixed ahead...

    Rinseless Washes - 2022

    This is how I interpreted it is to do a quick second rinseless wash with Idrosave to get the full protection. Otherwise, it will be diluted with the Preludio. Also, for those who don't mind rinsing with a garden hose or a pressure washer, I can't recommend enough spraying the entire car with...

    Rinseless Washes - 2022

    Talking about Idrosave at the 42-minute mark, Preludio at the 47-minute mark and using Preludio just where needed at the 51-minute mark.

    Rinseless Washes - 2022

    I saw a video with Reggy of Labocosmetica talking about Preludio and he said that you generally won't be spraying the entire car with either the alkaline or the acidic solution. Working panel by panel, it's more that you hit any areas with either product depending on what it needs. The front end...

    P&S Absolute Review

    Thanks for posting the review. I'm sure Absolute is a good product, but I have stayed away from it due to reading a lot of people say that they have had issues mixing it with water. Apparently, it tends to stay in globs.

    Does anyone have a good method for adding a cooling hole to the center of a foam pad?

    Thanks for the input. I found some other information online of someone recommending using a General Tools 1280P 3/4" Hollow Steel Punch. It's about $16 bucks on Amazon. I'm not sure if I will give it a try or not.

    Does anyone have a good method for adding a cooling hole to the center of a foam pad?

    I have some foam pads without the hole in the center. I want to add a 3/4" hole on those pads to help with cooling for use on a 15mm stroke da polisher.

    Rinseless Washes - 2022

    Does anyone know how important it is to wear respiratory protection when using Armour Hero rinseless? They state it under the guide to use section of the product on the Armour website. I'm guessing it's due to the Silica backbone of the product.

    Rinseless Washes - 2022

    If you want to do a bucket wash with protection as the last step of the 3 ph system, then you use Revitax instead of Semper.

    Rinseless Washes - 2022

    By the way, if your paint looks dull, then use Purifica 1:100 in a bucket wash after using Primus 2.0 as a prewash. Purifica is super slick and really makes a dark colored vehicle pop. Then do a quick follow up with your favorite rinseless or bucket wash to neutralize the acid of Purifica. If...

    Rinseless Washes - 2022

    Primus 2.0 is the real deal. It works great as a prewash to a rinseless or bucket wash. I like that you can use it at different dilutions depending on how dirty the car is. I've been using it 1:100 sprayed on the vehicle, let it dwell for a few minutes and then rinse it off. I would say it...

    Did I just ruin my glass or is there any way to fix this (etched or stained)?

    Do you know if the glass was hot when you originally sprayed the product on the windows? Did you contact the company and tell them what happened? If yes, what did they say?

    Machine polish, first attempt question

    I strongly recommend skipping the polishing for now and focus on your wash process. You want the wash process to be as foolproof as possible, otherwise the car will just get swirled up again. After perfecting the wash process, then polish the car and then it's just a matter of keeping it swirl free.

    Bilt Hamber Touch-Less: Sprayer vs Foam

    For whatever the reason a lot of people just love foam even if it doesn't actually work better. If you think about it, a thick layer of foam on a prewash the outer layer of foam doesn't actually touch the vehicle surface since it's just rinsed off. On a contact wash, the extra foam might help by...
