Well, that's one way to sell a new product, must have been a heck of a sale! :laughing:Im the MAN

I'm an Optimum Car Wash guy myself :)

I've been waiting for a mix-and-match BOGO on Blackfire for awhile now, I'd love to stock up on a few things!

You're not doing anything wrong, as I've had the same experiences with my Nanoskin sponges. They seem to stick a lot, and I've pretty much accepted it as a fact-of-life when using them. What I think happens is that there's not a lot of surface area on them, so they basically hydrolock themselves...

I have a theory on this- it may have something to do with the forced rotation of the Flex over-working the product. I have found that Essence does about the same thing if worked too hard. Its kind of like applying lotion on your skin- you don't work it in by rubbing ferociously, you simply...

I agree to do an excellent review of The Belt! I'm actually just really tired of stuffing microfibers in my pockets all the time :laughing:

Simple answer: shipping costs have increased quite a bit in the past year or so. AG does a lot of shipping with UPS, as does the place I work at, and thanks to places (Amazon in particular) shipping things in needlessly huge boxes (at least 3x the size they need to be), UPS has started to crack...

Excellent review! Your GTO wears Cosmic well, I hope it lasts a long time for you. I keep saying I need to pick some of this up for my AMGs as a treat for them, but I keep forgetting to. How does the paint feel afterwards, as far as slickness goes? I keep going back to BFWD in chasing that...

For a one-step on black paint, my favorite one to reach for is Menzerna PF2500 (still 2500). I have Speed and Adapt as well, but I still reach for the Menzerna for some reason.

As simple as it is: Stoner's Invisible Glass. I've always been horrible at doing windows, no matter what I did they've never come out like I'd have liked. I'd never tried Stoner's before this week, but it's truly magic in a bottle.

I just stick to OTC products when asked, most that usually ask me want to do a quick wash and wax and that's about all. For a wash product I recommend Meg's Ultimate Wash and Wax, and for a wax product I tell them Meg's 26. Both are available at the local Autozone, so it's easily gotten. That...

Been there, done that... Now I just detail a random neighbor's car while they sleep at night. You should see the look on their faces when they walk out to their car in the morning! J/K :laughing::buffing:

Thanks for posting your experience with Cut+, I haven't tried it yet so it's nice to hear about your real-world experience. I just recently decided to try HD products (Adapt, Speed, and Poxy) after hearing so many positive reviews. I have been more than satisfied with Menzerna as my go-to, but I...

Nice work! My significant other has actually never complained about my detailing purchases, although she has found: -Menzerna and Blackfire turned her dull, grey-blue paint back into a gorgeous Indigo Blue Metallic -Optimum Car Wash smells "like the most amazing blueberries" and -Optimum Power...

Wow, I'm glad I picked up Adapt when I did. I also can't help but wonder if this has anything to do with Cut and Polish's recent formula updates/tweaks, perhaps one closes the gap?

Amazing work bringing this one back from the brink! I'm glad the owner has come around and gave better than the "90%" he did last time. You're right, there is just something 'special' about AMGs... especially silver ones :p

Nice E550! FWIW, on my SL65's hood (also has the 4-light arrangement), I have found that the contours really don't like anything bigger than a 3" pad, especially on a DA. It's a very complex area to polish, I usually use my rotary and a careful touch for these areas. I have no problems using my...

Thanks for the comments, everyone! I was again floored by AG's customer service today. At the same time, I had ordered a few other things, including 16oz of HD Adapt which turned out to be on backorder. Things happen, and I wasn't in a rush so it wasn't a big deal waiting until they had it back...

If it were me, I would touch up that particular area with some black POR15 instead of regular touch-up paint. It's pretty wicked stuff and darn near bulletproof, but make sure to use it in a well-ventilated area as it is cyanide-based if my memory serves me correctly.

My go-to is Blackfire Interior Protectant, it leaves a nice sheen without looking artificial.
