For those that are using in Tire Spray product, what's an ideal material of the applicator. After I clean a tire, I am experimenting with various spray products. I'm not happy with the spray and set method, it seems to waste too much product and sling a little. I'd like to use an applicator...

Iron X spray because I'm new to caring for my car and trying new products. Iron X is on my " to buy list " for future products. I want to try them all. Thanks

Cool, When I layer 2nd or 3rd layer of the Klasse SG, what is the application process. * Do I just wash and buff dry and go straight to applying 2nd layer Sealant Glaze application. - or - * Do I wash, dry, and apply AIO then SG to build a second coat on top the the existing coat...

My concern was that I didn't apply enough Klasse product. Or that the lubricant from Clay treatment was keeping the product from bonding to paint. I just buffed the panel after claybar and went straight to Klasse Twins.

I did my test application of Klasse Twins tonight. 1) I washed a panel 2) Used Mothers Clay Bar Kit. Clay went smoothely. Being my first clay, the process went easier than I had anticipated. I made sure to use plenty of lubricant during the process. When I got done, the panel was smoothe...

I'm gonna skip the polish and do the Claybar - Klasse Twins tonight and see how it goes. Thanks for all the suggestions

Planning on worrying about scratches next summer. So you suggesting I can get away just Klasse Twins and skip polish for now?

Never been polished before. I plan to do a paint correction next summer, but with no buffer, I'll learn that after Winter rolls around. For now, just want the best paint by hand before I seal her up. 1) Should I polish ... after clay .... or before ? 2) Since I'm not correcting paint, I'm...

I'm looking to do my first Clay / Klasse Twins / Collinite to protect car for Winter. 10 year old dark paint car, hasn't been waxed in 8 years, with little washing over past several years. Currently, the paint has nice gloss and shine when washed and with no sealant or wax. I plan to...

Curious what kindof mess this leaves under the car when done? If someone were to do this on a home driveway, would it leave a greasy mess of gunk that a little rain or hose could not remove. Or is it just a bit of dirt that needs to be hosed away? I'd like to detail my engine...

I had a similar situation recently and was a bit adventuresome. I got some green auto tape to surround the scuff really tight and sanded the rust off using 1000 grit sandpaper. I sanded into the edge of the chip a little to get any rust that might be under the chip. Then re-taped the chip...

Thanks for all the advice. Looking forward to working through a few suggestions til I find a product I like.

I'll try that first next time I get the chance. I always have a can around the house. Re: The paint thinner, won't that harm the factory paint finish?

Car Care is something I've recently picked up. Washed a friend's truck today, and while wiping the lower part of the truck, I found a bunch of splattered black stuff. Probably tar from the road if I had to guess. It wasn't alot, but it was all across the bottom of both sides. Macguiar's...

I'm very new to this. I'm still experimenting. Right now, I'm cleaning weekly. I'll settle into a schedule as I learn more what it takes to keep the daily drivers where I want em.

I've read about that. It's what led to starting this thread. I'm going to play around with sealing the wheels this winter to see what kindof results I get and I'll know more by spring. The cleaner I have been using is safe for Aluminum wheels. Was hoping to get an alternative for it that...

I just started taking care of a few cars. Been using Eagle Aluminum wheel cleaner that I picked up @ Autozone and the wheels look shiny and great after cleaning. Needed a little more agitating that I'd like, but it was a first wash, and I don't think weekly washes will be as bad at the first...

I inspected the paint when washed the car last weekend. There are some very minor swirls a little roughness in the paint for the Clay Bar to smooth out. The car hasn't been run through any automatic car washes, so any minor scratches are from mother nature & a hand sponge & hand drying. I'm...

I'm not polishing. Paint is pretty shiny right now after a car wash. I'm just doing a clay bar, wash, AIO + SG ( 2 coats ), then < maybe > Collinite. No paint correction or machine work on the finish. Paint hasn't been waxed or detailed in years. I have read that the Klasse SG doesn't have...

Still working on getting the Klasse Combo on car before Winter. Would like to try some collinite 915 too for the extra shine / protection. I want to try both products figured I could use em both on same car. Visiting Collinite website, it says 915 is not a cleaner or abrasive. Would this...
