    Recondition Windows? What to use?

    I've used Zaino glass polish with my DA with great results. Followed it up with Mother's Chrome polish, also on the DA. Duragloss makes a similar glass polish. DP Glass Restorer via DA with white pad would probably work just fine, but I haven't tried it yet. None of this will get rid of severe...

    Using ONR after applying Zaino?

    Zaino has always served me well. I like it just fine. Quite a learning curve though as Zaino can be finicky to work with at times. If you look at the Duragloss line here on AG you will find it's pretty much the same stuff, except there are more products to choose from. I guess I'm just ready to...

    Using ONR after applying Zaino?

    I have had no issues with compatibility with Zaino. I am trying to use up all my Zaino stuff, but that stuff goes a long way. In the meantime I wash with ONR. No problem, looks great !! My father uses ONRWW and no problems. We both put Z8 over ONR - Looks Amazing !! I also use OCW over Zaino...

    Rust-Olem Epoxy Garage Floor Paint

    I've been happy with mine. I would just make sure you get a good etch on the floor. I actually used muriatic instead of the citric acid they include with the kit. I also cleared over it. It can be pretty damn slippery if it's wet and you have hard soled shoes on. Be warned, the wife may whine...

    Changing from Zaino-Recommend Something New?

    Man, I love the CTS !! Definitely going to be my next car. The prices of used 09's are starting to become to hard to refuse. Beautiful car. Nice detailing work !!

    Changing from Zaino-Recommend Something New?

    I've been gradually switching to Optimum Polyer Tech stuff. Zaino has always worked well for me, but since trying ONR and being amazed I have started trying their other products. Easy to use, time saving and looks great. It would be hard to go wrong with alot of stuff here at AG. So many choices !!

    I give up detailing cars GOOD BYE

    Yeah, aspire to get a garage! I was always interested in detailing the family vehicles...especially mine...but now with a garage, it's become kind of an illness. Detailing outdoors can definitely try your patience. Biggest problem with the garage is lighting.

    Tire Dressing .. Too many products need help

    I too would like a bit more shine and durability. Optimum Tire Shine seems to work about the best of everything I've tried. The Tuf Shine stuff intrigues me, and I keep seeing commercials for the Dupli-Color Tire Coating. Wonder if it's just clear laquer with flex agents....

    Zaino towels

    The new woobie towel here on AG looks pretty similar to the blonde towel

    Cordless blower

    I have the Ryobi and it works ok on a well sealed car where the water flies off easily. My corded blower works alot better though. However if nooks, crannies, trim etc. are your main concern it would be fine. It is fairly cheap and very handy in my opinion. If you have other Ryobi tools you...

    Pinnacle XMT Polishing Pad Cleaner - Doesn't Work On Sealant?

    I usually pretreat pads with the XMT, but usually soak them in a bucket with strong concentration of Dawn dishwashing liquid. If it will strip sealant off a car, should work on the pads. Works for me.

    Stepping away from Zaino and moving on

    I am also a Zaino user, but am gradually switching over to Optimum Polymer Tech products. Great results with less effort. For correction I usually use M105 and 205, but may try OPT stuff for that as well. I didn't think I would switch away from the Zaino Blonde towels for detailing spray use...

    Is Optimum Poli-Seal enough?

    Your plan sounds awesome to me. I'm using up some other products I have but then I will also be using ONR, OPS, OS, and OCW pretty much exclusively on the daily drivers. I have not used OPS and OS yet, but I'm looking forward to the day. All the other OPT stuff I have started using has amazed...

    Craigslist User Experiences

    I've sold big and small stuff on Craigslist. No big problem. I tried to hold off on giving to much personal info until a couple of communications have occured. Must use common sense. Just have to watch out for the Nigerian scam artists, especially on big ticket items. Google Nigerian scam...

    New Formula ONR vs Dirty Black Paint

    Old ONR ? Well if the pre wash solution ratio is 1 or 2 ounces per quart you will use it up quick. That's crazy !! I've been using the same ratio for my pre soak solution as the actual wash solution. 1 ounce per 2 gallons. I'll try a heavier ratio, but that sounds like an awful lot.

    For those who have used the new OPC and ONR

    I'm relatively new to the ONR game and just bought a gallon right before the new intro. I can't believe how well it works and am not too worried about the upgrade. I may just have to give away a few samples to use it up quicker. I'm so impressed with the old version, that I'm in no rush for the...

    New Version ONR?

    I know I'm now addicted to it !! Had a bottle on the shelf for almost a year and finally decided to try it. Been using it weekly for the last month or so and can't believe how well it works.
