    Interior Guard is a really good protectant on the leather and other areas. A little goes a long way. It has kept my wifes Lexus seats silky feeling for a long time. HUMP

    What actually happens when you top a ceramic coating with a wax or sealant?

    I don't think it is a bad thing perse', but as others have stated, the wax will gum up the molecular structure of the coating, so you will see a change in behavior until the wax is removed. I would rather stick with the coating manufacturer's designed protocol to get the best life out of the...

    Help picking a sealant

    Menzerna Powerlok has always been an easy to use sealant. Of course, you could use Opti-Seal as a drying aid or after which would be really easy to apply. HUMP

    New Product Recommendations for heavy defect removal.

    In the Megs line, M101 is still a defect killer,M100 is a great one as well. Griots makes Fast Correcting Creme that is a really good compound that can finish dang near perfect. There are others on the market that I dont think AG carries. If you want something close to 105, it would probably be...

    Soft Black Paint

    I had a funny thing happen last night while working on a black Grand National. The paint is soft, and mars easily. I also am getting paint readings that are lower than I would like to be able to go with a heavier compound. The past evening, I decided to try something different. I grabbed my...

    Constant bonded contaminates on daily driver

    The wash itself may not be removing enough of the road gunk. As the picture shows, you are in snow, which means brine and salt on the road. This can build up really easily on any vehicle. You may need to use something that can break down this road grime. Depending on the coating, it should not...

    Coating Question for Detailers

    One of the reasons we don't see durability on vehicles farther than say 3-4 years, is because most of these companies are just now getting to America. They have been used in Asia for a lot longer and most have been put thru accelerated testing to gain a range of durability. Same thing is done...

    3™ Trizact™ Foam Discs 5000 FAQs

    http://www.autogeekonline.net/forum/show-n-shine/87629-goat.html This project used the 3000/5000 system and although it did not eliminate the compounding step, the level of uniformity in defects made the finished product that much better. I will use this system again without hesitation. HUMP
