    Too cold to wax a car?

    I applied Fuzion and Souveran paste waxes as low as +5 celcius (41F) while being outside and it was fine. I used the yellow handgrip and a gray lake country pad and with the friction it was easy to spread and then buff. I wouldn't go colder than that. I onced washed a car at +2 celcius (35F) and...

    The Best Paste Wax is...

    I do :) I bought a while ago the sampler #2 that contains Concours\Destiny\Atlantique. I tried all 3 and for the price Concours (if bought alone) would represent the best deal of the 3 Zymol waxes mentioned above and by far. To me the shine is pretty much the same and highly dependant of the...

    non-polymer\wax detailer ?

    Hey folks, is there a surface prep spray other than Meguiars Final Inspection (M34) that is good to use before waxing the car. I mean a detailer that doesnt contain any wax or polymers. thanks

    How are you removing compound/polish? Any tips?

    I wipe it right after my section is done. My current car is very prone to do marring when I wipe polish \ compound (even with 70\30 towel) so I usually use Meguiars M34 Final Inspection to help wipe off my completed section.

    Review: Black Label Diamond Paint Coating

    Hi Mike, I only have one car and when I used it I had a 2009 Cadillac CTS black raven (non metallic paint). I had very noticable less shine with the Wolfgang Sealant versus using something like Souveran Paste Wax, Swissvax Concorsco and Autoglym HD Wax. I topped the car with Souveran and it did...

    Zymol cleaner wax question...

    I have used Cleaner Wax in the past and I was spreading thin so I did not require detailer to take it off. Going thin is the secret. If it's thick and hard to remove then I would use a bit of detailer to help buff it off. I have a paint that scratches easily so when I apply compound or prewax...

    Pinnacle Black Label Paste Wax

    With all those recent relases of the Black Label lineup... are there plans to make a Black Label Paste Wax that would be above the Souveran in terms of shine and durability ? Just curious :)

    Review: Black Label Diamond Paint Coating

    Outstanding results ! other than lesser durability, will the Pinnacle Black Label Diamond Paint Sealant produce similar results of Pinnacle Black Label Diamond Surface Coating ? During winter time I use the Wolfgang Paint Sealant but I find the shine to be average. I'm assuming that the...

    Let's talk about Expensive wax here (+300$)

    If you are looking to try new things for that price range you should try the Zymol Sampler kit #2, you would get 2oz of concours, 2oz of Destiny and 2oz of Atlantique + a towel and they usually include a little bottle of hd cleanse. So far I tried Destiny last year and Atlantique...

    Let's talk about Expensive wax here (+300$)

    To me Pinnacle Souveran is the best "deal" and easiest to use. I have tried Swissvax Mirage and Concorso, Zymol Destiny and Atlantique from samples. Mirage doesnt seem any better than Souveran in any aspects. Concorso, Destiny and Atlantique seem shinier, better sheeting and are longer lasting...

    xmt 360 topped with what??

    +1 on the Souveran topping over XMT Last fall I topped Souveran over the Wolfgang deep paint gloss sealant and worked great, I'm sure it would also work great over XMT

    What did I do wrong? New car paint now has scratches!

    The fine swirls could also be coming from your drying step. Reason I mention this is that on my black non metallic paint I have been creating tiny scratches visible only at direct sunlight just by drying the car. My paint is very sensitive so to dry the car I have to use quick detailer and a...

    drying car

    I have a California blade but I find it doesnt work that great and still have to use towels to take out water. Best for me is doing a final rinse with the hose without any gun on it, assuming you car is already waxed then not much water remains on the car. I then use Cobra purple towels (the...

    The Uber expensive waxes...what are they REALLY?

    Personally I always had dark color cars and for years I was not using proper techniques and was basically just washing then waxing the car, no paint correction. And all I was using was M26 or NXT wax. I was satisfied because I did not know any better. I discovered the virtues of paint correction...
