    A Belated Christmas Present - Paint Correction & 22ple Application on my Dad's Acura TSX

    From one Lightroom user to another, nice work with the camera AND with the car! Sounds like your Lightroom process is very close to mine. When shooting a vehicle or something important, RAW is definitely the way to go! I'm about to start correcting my black Acura TL. I think I'll follow your...

    4 Star UPP

    Has anybody tried the spray version? (Four Star Ultimate Spray Wax Plus) I'll be putting CQuartz on my black Acura soon and am thinking about using USWP as a topper wax. I could use OCW but I've seen so little about USWP that I'm wondering if anyone can give an opinion on it. Best, Steve

    Best DA Polisher for Beginner

    I purchased both a PC and a Griots at pretty much the same time and like the Griots best. I'd recommend 5" pads for most work but do use my 6" pads on my wife's vehicle, a nice big Lincoln Navigator.

    How to detail after Opti-Guard?

    Sounds like you have quite a bit of course debris on the vehicle. Maybe you can carefully pick most of the debris off by hand before washing, then use the mitts/chemicals that these fine gentleman have recommended. Good luck!

    Your Opinion Needed: Wash Mitt vs Multiple Towels

    A good reminder for all of us, I think. After instilling some swirls into my soft paint with rinseless washing using 2 buckets and a mitt, I'm ready to give this a try. Ha! What are you gonna name that! I'd get right on that and trademark it before somebody beats you to it!

    Your Opinion Needed: Wash Mitt vs Multiple Towels

    Your call on that, I guess. I was assuming a maintenance wash with paint in good condition, with the goal of not marring or adding swirls, but if I had to say, I'd probably do those either as first step or would inspect after the foam is rinsed off. Would be happy for any advice on that.

    Your Opinion Needed: Wash Mitt vs Multiple Towels

    Hi guys, With spring approaching, I'm looking forward to getting outside, getting out the hose, and giving my car a thorough wash again. I've been reading about wash mitt preferences on several sites and saw where Garry Dean posted a method where he doesn't use a mitt but uses several MF...

    Best clay to remove overspray

    Thanks for the replies, guys. Just went outside and tried to scrape up a few of the overspray dots with my fingernail without success, makes me worry that even more aggressive clay or the prep towel won't do it. If neither the aggressive clay or the prep towel works, I'll be $100 into this job...

    Best clay to remove overspray

    Hi guys, I'm having trouble removing some overspray. So far, I've tried Griots detailing clay and also the Ultima Elastrofoam block. As a lube, I used the Ultima Cleaning Lubricant in both cases. Neither combination got rid of the overspray. Do I need to get more agressive? Change the lube or...
