    Meguiars Ultimate Compound

    I tried out UC today. I must say I was pretty surprised. I tried to take pictures but its so hard to take pictures of defects on my paint, especially without halogens. These are of the first defect, but I just gave up on trying to capture them after this. My camera is just waay too crappy...

    QD vs Clay Lubricants

    Theres a huge difference. All clay lubes can be used as a "Quick" detailer in that it will wipe away finger smudges, dust, etc, but not all QDs can be used as a clay lube. Quick Detailer is a pretty broad term. Some QDs are used to not only clean up really light dirt but to also add gloss and...

    Meguiars Ultimate Compound

    Hey rasky I know you probably know more about megs than I do but imo the only thing similar about uc and m105 is the type of abrasives. From what I've read UC has a decent work time where as m105s work time on even the pc is pretty short. And the big difference is its cut. Though they don't...

    Brand Loyalty

    What's the reason for only sticking to one brand?.......... I don't see any plus side to doing that, unless of course they were sponsoring you or something. If I had to absolutely choose one line it would probably be optimum at the moment.

    Optimum compared to Meguairs

    I guess that would be hyper compound but I don't think its all that close.

    Help...Deep Gloss Paint Sealant

    Hey jam, that's good to know I'm not the only one to have this problem. Man I thought I was on a bad luck streak or something. That's even better to know the performance wasn't affected. Too be honest if it wasn't for my problems with my optiseal I probably would have just shrugged it off. I'm...

    Help...Deep Gloss Paint Sealant

    Hey matt thank you for the offer. I think I messaged you last time about my optiseal. It sucks that what's causing this is out of our hands. You guys are in florida where I'm sure its not freezing and I'm in san francisco where the coldest its gotten is in the mid 40s. I haven't paid attention...

    Help...Deep Gloss Paint Sealant

    I just received my order from pinnacle today. Included in that order was some DGPS. When I first got it, I shook the bottle and could feel something hard inside. It felt "slushy". Like an Icee. After a minute or two of shaking it felt like everything was smooth. Now when I look at it, theres two...

    I hate my paint!

    Maybe there was contaminants on the foam pad. Dust build up maybe? I keep mine in a ziploc, were yours out in the open? I just don't get how a chemical cleaner could cause marring. I think it may have been the applicators

    I hate my paint!

    How the hell did you finish swirl free if something so gentle as kaio marred it? Black honda paint isn't even that soft. Kaio doesn't even have abrasives. Man I feel sorry for you. That would drive me nuts

    finally got my new compound

    Should you even have to use SIP after m105? The m105/m205 combo has worked perfectly for me.

    Secrets for maintaining black front bumper

    Its an 04 so I'm sure its the same paint on that I30. That's good to hear they changed the paint. I have no complaints about this car but the paint. I wouldn't mind a new fx45. Best looking suv ever.

    First timer with the pc

    Well to be honest, without any pictures of some sort we cant really tell you what those scratches are. They could very well be marring from the orange pad or it could just be scratches that you already have. You might have really hard paint which is why the orange pad didnt do anything, or your...

    Secrets for maintaining black front bumper

    Yea I have an 04 in diamond graphite and the paint chipping is just horrible. I want to get the hood and bumper resprayed but Im worried about matching. Like I said though, Im lucky the primers is grey so its not really all that bad. When I was looking at buying one, ofcourse in black, but those...
