    Why am I getting these water spots?

    Yes definitely looks like water drying but I suspect it’s from between washes. After a rainfall and the water spots dry, or morning dew that’s dried as the day warms up. The dew or raindrops likely contain some level of fallout, chemicals, dust and/or minerals, which is left behind once the...

    MF towel types and uses...?

    Yes... #3 is the Cobra, I checked my old orders and I got them in a package kit with my GG DA polisher. So far my favorite towel, I will definitely get a few more. #1 is a drying towel, a competitor to the PFM, and I will continue to use it for drying. #2 towels will be relegated solely for...

    MF towel types and uses...?

    I’ve never gotten the Griot’s PFM but I’ve read so much about how great they are. The main reason is that I have several towels already and some have not even been used. Judging from pictures, I suspect #3 might be similar to the PFM, can’t remember where or how I got those though. I also use...

    MF towel types and uses...?

    I’m trying to be a simple hobbyist and not a full blown detailing enthusiast but... I did a minor correction and sealant yesterday with BF One Step and PNS and I had a hard time choosing the best towel to use for each application. There’s the (1) classic drying towel (2) long, soft nap, (3)...

    A little PNS experiment coming up

    PNS, very versatile. I'm itching to go with a DIY ceramic coating, but can't convince myself it's worth it while I still have PNS on my shelf. Your bimmer looks great!

    What did you do today, in regards to detailing?

    I’ve come to realize that I prefer heavy downpours, or solid rain on several consecutive days, rather than a light shower once or twice a week. With the heavy showers everything washes away and does not adhere to the surface of the car. With light showers the water on the road remains dirty...

    A little PNS experiment coming up

    Sorry for the late response... I last applied the PNS 15 months and 15K miles ago. But my paint still looks fresh, clean and shiny; even though I tell myself it’s time for mild correction and a new coat of PNS, I have so many reasons not to: - like I said, the paint still looks good - car is...

    A little PNS experiment coming up

    I have never used another product that repels water and dirt as well as PNS. Because of how well it works, I’ve not made the switch to ceramic coatings as of yet. Topped with BSD, I think it’s the perfect combination for me and the conditions under which I drive and maintain my car. This is...

    Getting into the nooks and crannies around emblems...

    You know what? There might actually be one of those hanging around my closet... I’ll go take a look. Good idea! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Both brush ideas sound doable. Thanks!

    Getting into the nooks and crannies around emblems...

    Steam cleaner sounds like the ticket, but I don’t have one. Thinking now about rubbing alcohol in some hot water, 1:1, with a small detail brush. Maybe some APC in hot water as well. Any other ideas? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Getting into the nooks and crannies around emblems...

    Debadging was a thought but I was thinking of pursuing a cleaning method before going in that direction.

    Getting into the nooks and crannies around emblems...

    I would usually just use a detailing brush with the car soap every other wash or so to clean the emblems, up, down, circular, over and over, to really get into the nooks and crannies. Then after a close examination during drying, I went to town with the corner of MF towel, but there’s still crud...
