    Westley's Bleche Wite what happened to it?

    After my recent purchase of Tuf Shine Tire Cleaner, I have no need for Westley's - which I have used for years. TS cleans my tires more thoroughly, uses less product, is less harsh on my senses, and the 128oz 1:1 concentrate is now in my AG basket.

    Autowerx CeriGlass Guide

    As I just picked up some CeriGlass, and now need to pick up the CarPro pads, I need some clarification on this critical advice for maintaining optical clarity. Alternate direction as in reverse parallel passes (L/R, R/L, L/R, R/L), or alternate direction as in perpendicular passes (L/R, U/D...

    Seriously

    Mercy for damaging the OP's ~$35,000 car!? You accept the risk (parking your car full of kids next to another), you accept the consequences (paying for the damage your kids caused). If she can afford an Acura, I'll assume she can handle the repair bill. Great awareness and vigilance in...

    2013 Challenger (for car show)

    Gotta love'em new Mopes - especially the Challengers. Kinda looks naked, though, without any stripes or decals. Very clean correction and detail. Classic Detroit muscle looks, made in Canada with a Hemi from Mexico and German blood!

    how do I keep brake dust off wheels ?

    Sealants and coatings will only go so far. So why not look at the SOURCE of the dusting!? Only seems logical. Like to not put swirls in your paint, just don't wash your car with a mitt, sponge, towel, brush, et cetera. Or to not get tire dressing sling, don't apply a gel or thick tire...

    'Best' glass sealer/water repellent for a novice

    Stay away from the Gtechniq G5. I applied it after using the G4 polish, and while wasn't as difficult to apply as the two-stage G1/G2 hydrophobic coating, I still prefer PPG (now Trico?) Aquapel glass treatment - for application and results.

    VENT!: Car range!

    Is it a plain jane C63? Or the kick-you-in-the-pants C63 AMG or rare C63 AMG Black Series!? If one of the latter, I doubt you bought it for efficiency or range. My Challenger's tank capacity is only 2 gallons greater, and my old Mazda Protege5 is actually 4 less. At least when you have to...

    Very Confused

    Gotta love them Hemi Mopars! Definitely take your time perusing the forums, just learning. While you're discovering the various proper TTPs (tools, techniques and procedures) you can utilize, make a list of all the supplies you need. By breaking it down into basic categories, you can start...

    Best kind of wash mit

    Upper Half: single-sided merino wool w/ mesh backed mitt (GTechniq, CarPro) Bottom Half: microfiber chenille/dreadlock mitt I've been cutting out the foam liners in the dreadlock mitts, and am excited because I just ordered a couple MicrofiberTech cuff-less, foam liner-less dreadlock mitts.

    Chemical Guys VRP

    Hardly a week's durability with CG VRP on a 70-mile daily driver out in the sun at least 10 hours a day. Having much better results and durability with Ultima TTG. Pricier though.

    Post Your Unpacking Pictures

    My two June orders. That 3 ounce jar of WG Fuzion? My free Labor Gift!!! Can't complain about a $60 top-of-the-AG-line wax whatsoever. With the DA, I only forgot to add the SurBuf pads, but I've got enough to finally get polishing with.

    What's everyone's go to window cleaner

    Do you mean this? Permanon Glass Surface, permanon glass cleaner, permanon glass supershine Not one review and $114 for 500ml is probably why there's not much praise. At least yet. Just saying. Just recently jumped onto the D120 bandwagon and am converted. Much cheaper than Stoner...

    Called Chemical Guys today...

    I gave up on CG after two failed attempts to get questions answered on the phone, and complete inability to answer four product questions that were clearly and numerically listed in an e-mail. At least in the e-mail reply, with unprofessional slang and lack of proper punctuation, the guy told...

    Will Sonax FE remove Tuf Shine?

    So I'm finally about out of CG Diablo Wheel Gel, and was looking at Sonax Full Effect. However, I just used Tuf Shine system to clean and dress my tires. As Sonax FE drips off the wheel and onto the tire, will it also be destroying the Tuf Shine "Clearcoat"? If Tuf Shine's tire dressing isn't...
