    Rinseless wash use during a traditional wash?

    I add a cap of ONRWW to my Meg's GC shampoo if I'm not going to spray D156 afterward. Adds a touch of shine and a bit of protection (minimal at best), but can streak if you add too much.

    Subaru STI - DP Coated

    That looks great man, I bet your buddy is stoked! Great info on the prep polish, I was able to ipa before my coat so I haven't cracked that yet. How many passes did the polish take? On the blue there, could you see the paint coat spreading or did it flash extremely fast? I did my Mom's silver...

    NEW! DP Paint, Wheel, & Glass Coatings + Coating Prep Polish!

    Closest true wowo would be Fuzion, which I know isn't the same thing in any way. When I say it flashed fast, I got literally a full swipe or two. Maybe it was spreading more than that, but if so, I couldn't see it in any way. That being the case, I felt I had to spray additional to ensure...

    NEW! DP Paint, Wheel, & Glass Coatings + Coating Prep Polish!

    6-8 for this small hood, each door was 4 or so, and they're small doors. for me, it flashed almost immediately after 1-2 "swipes" on a section, it doesn't drag or soak an applicator like we're used to wax doing. That's why I felt like I had to use so many sprays. I buffed after every section.

    NEW! DP Paint, Wheel, & Glass Coatings + Coating Prep Polish!

    Used the paint coat today right after it came via fedex! The hard part about the process in my opinion is spreading the product as Nick and Mike have described. I was working on a silver 2000 corolla, pretty small panels, and it was taking well more than the 4-5 sprays for hood/roof and 2 or 3...

    critique my website

    Any tools and supplies that you have neatly organized and put together should be featured (with you in the foreground, if at all) People are naturally amazed at variety, and more importantly, the premium buyer knows that your industry is not "one size fits all." A show of your supplies will give...

    Bird Sh*t!

    This is proof that they gun for ya!! I use my Pinnacle WW with Carnuba, spray it and wipe it, turn and buff. Any ONR mixed as QD works good in that application as well.

    Just a "Thank You" to the great team at PBMG

    Like many of you, I found my way to AG when googling something about car care at some point in time. Compared to most of you, I'm as rookie as rookie gets, but with the help of a good community brought together in a singular location, hosted by a tremendous staff, I will continue to improve upon...

    Doing a car that hasn't been washed in years...

    Yeah, I can't lie, I'm not looking particularly forward to all Tue cat and prep work just so it can sit under a maple tree, but hey it's for mom. Hopefully my technique and product line up will eliminate the need for luck? Sent from my HTC One using Tapatalk 2

    Doing a car that hasn't been washed in years...

    I've gone overboard with purchasing products. I only do mine and wife's cars regularly, but I saw my moms the other day and almost shed a tear, partially because I haven't done it for her sooner. I'll have to start doing friends cars just to pay for my addiction! Sent from my HTC One using...

    Why only your bumpers Chris? Is the Corolla already coated, or do you not want a coating on the body paint?

    Doing a car that hasn't been washed in years...

    Morning Geeks. Next weekend I am stealing my Mom's 02 Corolla from her and hooking that car up like it has never seen before. (in all honesty that'd only require a thorough wash) It sits outside all day, she only drives a few times a week. The car is silver, well, kinda silver since it sits...
