In recreationally detailing my vehicles I want to ask the forum if there comes a time when detailing the paint finish should just be left alone. I wash w/ 2 bucket method w/grit gaurds after foaming and rinsing first. Prepared the surface by iron x then clayed. The paint is sealed w/ dp...

I have just taken what I consider to be a significant step forward in my microfiber world. I'm a total hacker/newbie and have been tinkering with my new scion fr-s since purchasing it in July. My skill level consists of two bucket washes w/grit gaurds, foam gun, clay, dp policoat sealant and...

I'm searching for iron-x to buy locally at a retail location. Boston and I need it today, this morning actually. A local supply detailing company said that they carry iron buster. Unless the woman misspoke I can't find any info on iron buster. Is this a suitable alternative to iron-x...

Time to switch out the winter wheels for regular wheels and wanted to a practical question. Heading to NYC (4 hour drive) for an overnight trip. Is there any reason to wait or should I just switch em today. I'm anxious to get the winter snow dogs off but wanted to hear some opinions. My...

What is/was teh daylight sale? I have been waiting for the time (cheapest time) to buy a griots 6" da polisher. Are there any tips on how to get the best price for the new polisher? I need a 5" backing plate and pads also. This is my first foray into da polishers.

Thanks for the information. I am begining to absorb theory and concepts of buffing and polishing. There seem so many different ways to go here. I'm still treading through the different mfr's and products. Can somebody provide their opinion or breakdown of quality/price in a tiered manner...

I plan to get an assortment of LC pads but not sure which type to get. CSS, foam etc etc. I was thinking of ordering 2 of each color that I choose for starters. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I need to remove swirls (my spring '14 project) on a black Jetta. The severity is moderate or medium. So, my mind is centered on Wolf Gang Total Swirl Remover 3.0 but I'm open to any other suggestions. Can I use the WG TSR 3.0 on a boat? I would like to streamline if possible and avoid...

Thanks for the response Mike P, and others. This is EXACTLY the info that I wanted. And, I will study the process and product write ups. It's good to know where to start and that getting a 5 inch backing plate is necessary. Like with any enthusiast subject all different the products seem...

I'm new to the electric polisher game and want to make the right choice in purchasing this piece of equipment. My intended uses are as follows: 1. Wife's black 2010 Jetta- extensive swirl marks, pretty bad actually as we bought the car used. 2. My new silver Scion FR-S sports coupe. only 6...

The Northeast winter is approaching. I have frost-free outdoor hose spigots so water is not a problem. My Scion FR-S 10-series (sliver) was driven off the lot by me on July 10. I have done nothing except wash the car using the 2 bucket method with a small amt. of ONR added to soap bucket and...
