When I used AW the paint had quite a few little drops here and there. Same situation as the GG. Did not see any difference in drying time or drying effectiveness. I do my glass surfaces (inc solar roof and moon roof) first with a nice gold MF towel then the remainder of the drops on the paint I...

A few months ago I cleaned the car up and put on WG 3.0 sealant and next dayed it with Pin Liq Souv. Really looked great. After the first wash I decided to apply GG spray on wax after blading most water off. First time I'd used a spray on and I was really happy with it's ease and results. But...

exactly Rsurfer....got a little wound up I s'pose. I know better.....searching now......thanks!

On the front of my car is the typical painted plastic bumper, rubberized plastic, whatever. One spot shows a cut or a slice and another spot shows more of a rip from some highway debris I'd guess. Pics enclosed. It is a new car, paint is in great shape, and I keep it clean, sealed, and waxed. If...

Yes. I agree. Xlnt choice for overall package. Drive it like you stole it and keep it shiny!

Getting the MPG you do is fantastic! We went from a 16 MPG unit and now think we're the cat's ass. My GF and I are in our mid 50's so our car needs have changed. The hatchback thing fit's our rapidly slowing lifestyle. I think it's great to have a car that looks as hot as yours does AND get...

Yeah. If you're not gonna get real good mileage anyway, might as well go with the nice wheels. haha. Good pics of a nice wheel/tire. Which tire goo do you use?

Yikes! A ton of great reference material for a hack like me. Thanks all!

Yeah. They're pretty nice (from about 300 yards away). Stayed with the stock 15" wheels/covers instead of upgrade to 17" and nicer wheels. The mpg is based on the 15", wanted the mpg. Did get solar roof w-a/c remote cool. More worried about stereo upgrades. Spend most of our time driving the car...

I have no water issues here. After a foam gun, rinse, foam gun, sponge off, rinse, I use the blade to remove most of the water. This Prius has a solar panel and sunroof of tinted glass so I get to that right away with nice drying towels. Then I spray on a little GG spray wax per panel and use...

Klasse Act - I recently got one from a different manufacturer. Love it. I got it looking pretty good but that silver one and the wheels/tires looks real nice. Way to go. I remember many years ago when I had a '91 Mercedes...somebody told me to put in some Klasse AIO in with my sudsy water and it...

100% natural boar bristle easy to manipulate xlnt product-holding capability or use dry for dusting $5.45

It was awesome of Forrest to do that. I've become a bit overwhelmed with some other projects recently but am planning on getting to the reason I got that stuff and posting results.

appreciate the input. sounds like (as I expected) experience is the answer. I'm happy to hear that people with experience have a value. I was an elevator mechanic for 34 years and was released. I've been interested in detailing for only a few months and have learned alot, but paint?...I can...

As I cruise thru this site I constantly hear of people saying "this kinda car has normally got softer paint" or "those cars after this year are single stage paints" or "these are a harder ceramic type coating". My terminology is not correct but you get the idea. Sounds like experience talking...

CR-Z....is that one a dem hy-breed thangs?

davidc - so these "spray on waxes" can be used in between details as is or right after a wash? Or a quick LSP of sorts?

As an elevator mechanic I used to pick thru the rags we would buy for the non-poly stuff. Might as well use a squeege.
