    Does Dish Soap Really Strip wax?

    This is going to be a near-weekly thread until the end of time - no matter how many people do experiments or demonstrations. This is a pointless thing to get hung up over, too. Water behavior on a surface is not the only indicator that protection is there, and even polished and unprotected...

    Competition Ready Experience

    Definitely a fun experience. There was a fair bit of goofing around behind the scenes - the TV crew was pretty funny. It was a good group to be around for a day. Thanks for sharing.

    For All You Rupes Lovers vs Flex

    Of all the dead horses, this could possibly be one of the most beaten. I sold my Flex after using a Rupes. It's almost like people have difference preferences.

    Anyone use these?

    They're both good products. Can be sliiiiightly harder to wipe off than some of other products but they work well. Minimal dusting, good work time. I've removed 2k grit sanding marks in just a couple passes with the Coarse Gel and a blue Rupes pad. I've been trying to use up my small bottles I...

    anyone use a dash cam?

    I'm going to buy one soon - they turn people honest really quickly. I'm probably going with the A119. Nice and discreet and has some good features for about 100 bucks. Few months ago I had a big moving truck back into me at a stoplight because he was out in the intersection and didn't see me. I...

    MF Rags that shipped with my iBrid

    I have never seen Rupes' cloths available for sale individually on any US sites(there are some other UK-based ones I've seen and I could certainly be wrong), but they usually include them in a couple Rupes bundles on AGO. I got some in my MKII kit and my Nano kit. You might check out Meguiars...

    My water system is finally where I want it!

    Looks awesome. I love watching people come up with their own solutions to stuff like this; I have a lot of trouble imagining an end result and working backwards.

    Griots products and boss system, why I'm switching!

    Really glad to see Griots continue to get their due for what they have done recently. They completely earned me back after I had bad experiences with their early polishes and Best of Show Wax. I love my G21 and reach for it more often than my MKII Rupes. Still working towards replacing my pads...

    Thanksgiving Day Sale! 15% Off Storewide + Free Shipping & Free Fuzion Spray Wax!

    Looking at my black friday orders from last year, AG did 25% off free shipping, no minimum. The free shipping threshold has gone up a bit in the past year but I still expect it to be a pretty great deal here, as it always is on big sales days.

    In my opinion, these are the top 3 mistakes detailers make when performing paint correction

    I like it better this way anyway. There's room for everyone. Anyone who doesn't want to take the time to learn will pay someone to do it, just like literally everything else. The barrier of entry is low in this profession because of the wealth of free knowledge and tools out there, as well as...

    Review of Griot's Garage Liquid Gloss Poly Wax

    Snapped a few pics of the car I applied this on 2.5 weeks ago. Been driven and parked outside daily and it has rained a couple times. Sorry for cell phone quality pics - just wanted to quickly demonstrate how glossy it still looks and how clean it has stayed. Compare the paint to the windshield.

    Review of Griot's Garage Liquid Gloss Poly Wax

    I did a white car a couple weeks ago with it. I'll have to take a look after some hard rains today to see how it looks - usually it gets those ugly "cry" marks under the door handles really easily.

    New car, needs love, what would you do?

    I'm from St. Louis too. I have a ton of extra product. If you find yourself needing something or even a hand just shoot me a PM. I have a ton of machines(G21, Nano, MKII Rupes, etc.) that might help speed your process up, plus plenty of AIO, Compounds, Polishes, Coatings... whatever you'd want...
