That is good to hear. Just hope it works out for you in practice. No it wasn't CCP. I've never dealt with them. ZAS is the Optimum distributor here, so you'd do well not going there.

Danube, you’ve already stated that multiple times so I guess Antonio and the others have got the message. Not much point in over doing it. I’m with you to a great degree as I do think our guys could reduce their prices and be more competitive, but quite obviously they think they are getting...

I agree with your first comment, but your second comment is way over the top and is not required. I'll presume your problems are with M105, not M205, but please don't blame the product, just because some users here just can't seem get to grips with it. I've tested a heap of compounds and...

David, I find these conversations rather pointless in public. I'm presently replying to your last email and your latest theories, you should have it shortly. However now that you have gone public, in the interest of accuracy, I feel it is only fair to quote from Chris's pm to me just to prove...

I suppose I should have expected that type of response from you. You couldn’t possibly be wrong – with you it is always user error, never Chris’s error. You stated in a pm to me Jan 9th that 30 days is sufficient cure time for polishing with Poli-Seal. Of course my results at the time indicated...

In that case we were obviously talking at cross purposes then. My original tests were designed to simulate maintaining an OG/OC surface. As I stated previously light polishing was performed on various panels of a number of OG coated vehicles. The tests that all failed the beading test to...

I think you may have misunderstood my meaning of realistic. Personally, I wouldn’t consider maintaining an Opti-Coated vehicle by hand polishing as realistic. If that was a requirement for an Opti-Coated vehicle then I doubt OC/OG would have many fans. Of course you can make it as complicated as...

Now that you are confident that the OC is still there, why not do a more realistic test with your DA and a soft pad on say part of your bonnet or some other horizontal surface? I’d suggest something milder than Polish II though. Once the area is polished, then do a normal prep and IPA wipe...

According to Dr. G it is fully cured in 30 days.

During my testing on various vehicles with OC/OG I found that even the mildest of polishes would remove the coating. I’ve done various tests, up to 90 days cure time, which I’ve shared with Dr. G and Chris and in all instances the coating was either partially removed or removed. The tests were...

What a mixed bag of answers, some of them just plain ridiculous. Too use M105 successfully with a DA you should first study up on the KBM method. Much has been written about the method so a google search will provide plenty of hits. However to summarize 1. Prime the pad with M105 correctly 2...

Now you are probably ready to find out what 85rd can really do. But first check out the rotary videos on Detailing World by Dave KG, to see how long you can work 85rd. Just don't rush it.. Learning to jewel paint is a great way to learn the in and outs of your new Flex. Try it with a black...

Well that was obvious from your statement. I agree you do get considerably extra cut from 106fa or ff and that is what makes it different to 85rd. You've only got to handle both products between your fingers to realise the Menz rep wasn't up to scratch on their products. Well you are no...

That statement is incorrect. You only have to look at the scale on each label to see that 106fa or ff has more cut than 85rd. The finish is extremely good with 106fa, but 85rd is still the real finishing polish. Both have their uses depending on what you trying to achieve. If you have used...

The following is the procedure I employed to remove an unknown sticky substance from the lumbar panel of the leather of driver’s seat of a Subaru Liberty. This vehicle had been detailed back in November last year, and part of the detail included cleaning the leather of both front seats. The...

I gather it didn't work out for him. I'm surprised because in my experience it is a great product. I've used it countless times on lots of different vehicles with great results. Their Tyre Gel is another great permanent product, which can be used standalone or as a base for any other favourite...

Pulling data from one DB to another is really rather a basic SQL requirement. Data is just data after all. I would guess it more likely to be a lack of understanding in the differences between column types in Oracle as compared to the column types in MS. That is more like an example of poor SQL...

So this is not your personal experience with MS SQL Server, just feedback from others at your work place. I'm a little surprised that experienced SQL guys would actually need support from MS. Thanks any way.

I'm only interested in a Windows platform, therefore could you expand on "rubbed me the wrong way" and what do you mean by "quarks" in respect to MS SQL Server.
