For a mere $19.99, you can have a wealth of knowledge and a complete guide on how to create a show car finish. Mike Phillips’ The Complete Guide to a Show Car Shine Paperback Book Show car result can be achieved by a novice, but it will take time, patience and an investment in tools and...

I'm thinking McKee's, it's Nick's baby afterall. There was also a difference between this box and previous boxes I have gotten from Nick for review giveaways.

You used way too much product. In the case of BFWD, it was probably still easy to remove and you just may have gotten a little dusting, but you did waste product. My initial amount is normally a very thin spiral from the outer edge of the pad toward the center, as thin as a piece of string...

I'll be waiting a couple days before I try mine. Probably just brandy and the fireplace for the time being.

Iron-x really isn't a wheel cleaner, it's sole function is binding iron and a few other inorganics. It's not going to do anything of value for organics like general dirt or road film; nor petroleum based contaminants like grease and tar. Wheel brightener is a dedicated wheel cleaner, and...

Fanboy, ignorant, marketing, bandwagon, it's gotta be the best if it costs that much...or were you specifically looking for logical reasons?:laughing: I do think the substantial increase in cost is worth the incremental increase in performance in this case (though i have the 16x16 towels as I...

There is a plate filler section that was left off. Very common for the enthusiasts to switch to an RS4 mesh grille and omit the plate filler in lieu of nothing or the tow hook attachment. Everyone loves the mesh grilles. Very nice work pdqgp. Is that Ibis or Glacier white? I did one...

You can always put more layers on. You can only take so much off.

Congrats Nick and best of luck in your new venture. You have been an integral part of this community and I hope to see a new handle, Nick@mckee37, on December 17th. Thank you for all you've done for this group.

You are spoiled with rotation, lol. Note that I've only used a nano for one day. I've used a few different polishes, just need to be very frugal. I don't think I used anything as thin as essence, so that may be part of your problem. HD polish, d300, fg400 m205 were just fine. Tough with a...

An extractor. Anytime I spray an alkaline like megs APC on a carpet, I always use an acidic fiber rinse to neutralize it. This can be used as your extraction fluid or by misting.

I really don't like the smell (though i know this is very subjective). I feel like my work space smelled like a body shop detail bay afterward, and not in a good way. I also don't like how thick is it, I feel like after you pour the concentrate into your water, you need to pour them back a...

Hot water in a little bucket for 3-5 minutes. It will get harder again if used on a cold panel, so you do need to keep reheating occasionally.

I'll always use a clay towel or bar on the glass when I do a car. Though not necessary, I'll use a Heavy duty clay, like 3M, when it's available since there's no concern of marring glass. As for polishing glass: I'm normally not trying to remove swirls. My goal is to remove road film. That...

Note that you didn't ask me the question, I'm simply giving my feedback. I have a 60 gallon 5hp for fixed use and a 6 gallon 2.5 hp for mobile use. With the 6 gallon, I can do just the right size area before wiping off, but then need to wait for the tank to refill. With the 60 gallon, I...

Opinions will differ depending on where you land on the Internet. Here at AGO, based on quite a bit of bench testing and the insight of the resident care car product formulator and chemist, I believe the consensus is to mechanically remove if you need to be 100% sure it's gone. That goes for...

Great review and thanks for putting the bumper at risk with a week of baked bugs, all for our benefit.

Good catch. I misread the question. Perhaps I should care more about lug nuts, but I consider the vast majority to be easily replaced. #lugnutlivesmatter

Thank for the opportunity Nick & the whole AG team.

Yes, I've seen it last entirely through harsh MN winters on some cars and not so on others. Performance & longevity was primarily based on how well the client maintained the vehicle. Some people will wrap the outside of the socket with electrician tape or duct tape. Just be careful, it...
