    need some tips

    Can you elaborate a little more on your process? How many passes are you making? What about your working area? Are you watching for pad rotation? How much product are you using? there are just so many variables in paint correction that it's hard to just jump up and say what your exact problem...

    cquartz UK Vs Opti Gloss Coat

    Opticoat Pro is the one where you have to be licensed though Optimum to buy & apply it. Gloss Coat is a consumer grade coating. As far as the pricing goes, that's a business decision by that detailer to charge whatever they're charging. Kind of hard to speculate on why other people do what they...

    When Did This Get So Complicated?

    I agree. Once I took a step back and took more care to just understand the process behind each step it was a lot easier to separate the hype from the reality. It's also fortunate that we have so many people who share their findings and review things so that you can just search for "Ultima Paint...

    How to remove fine scratches from a C-Quartz Finest coated film

    CQ Finest and other coatings help - but do not prevent scratches and bird droppings. You still have to treat them like paint and remove droppings in a timely and safe manner and exercise caution when washing/drying. They do speed up both of those processes and make them easier. I can pressure...

    Flex or Rupes?

    There has been a lot of discussion around this in the past. I would highly recommend reading through some of these threads: http://www.autogeekonline.net/forum/auto-detailing-101/71922-my-review-flex-3401-rupes-bigfoot-polishers.html...

    Review: Griot's Garage BOSS Creams and Pads

    Glad to see another satisfied user of the Boss line. I really can't say enough good things about the polisher, the pads, and the products. To be perfectly frank, I originally discounted all of them as just an attempt to catch up with the rest of the industry - then I saw enough positive reviews...

    I bit the bullet.. I just bought a G21

    I've used all those pads on my G21 and have found zero negatives to them at all. They're great pads. I like the new ThinPros as well, and the microfiber pads Griots makes are just as good(if not better) than the Megs / Buff and Shines.

    removing leather dressing?

    Yeah, that was my thought too - err on the side of caution. Probably would just use a dedicated leather product like Bob suggested.

    removing leather dressing?

    Inside has some pretty good cleaning properties. I used it full strength with a brush on my dash to test it and it definitely knocked down my application of Ultima Interior Guard. I've been using DP APC 1:10 on Leather since it came out and I've never had any problems with it and I always...

    Griot's Garage PFM Total Towel Kit and Best of Show Wax

    Great review and pics. Sounds like they really improved the Best of Show Wax - their liquid version is one of my least favorite LSP I have ever tried. Their new Poly Wax is pretty great though. I will always have a soft spot for Griots as they were one of the first brands I branched out into...
