    Duragloss PBA Question

    I know this has been addressed on several threads, however, I seem to be at a loss in finding this information. I am going to use PBA/501 on my car and I want to mix the two to instead of one then the other down on the car. I have seen where people said that they use 4 dime size drops of one...

    Sealant And Topper Question

    I'm looking at the DP Poli Coat Sealant and the Collinite 845, would it be better to use Collinite 476 or is there no difference? What are your opinions on this? I was thinking that the 476 may last longer than the 845, but I have no experience with either of these and I am just going off the...

    Coating Application Question

    Thank you. That's what I was thinking from what I had read on different coating in the AG store site, but better safe than sorry. I think that I may just go with a sealant as it is seems easier to use, but I like the longevity of the coatings. I just can't seem to make up my mind on which way...

    Coating Application Question

    I am currently using XMT 360 and I am very happy with it. I previously asked about sealants for the winter, but have since started looking at coatings from some of the replies I had received. Can I put a coating over the XMT 360, or does the coating have to go directly onto the paint? I just...

    Best Winter Sealant?

    If you go with a coating can you still top it with a wax? Also, when using a coating can you put that over XMT 360 or would you use the 360 then house a paint cleaner before applying the coating? Essentially, after correcting the paint should you just use the paint prep of the same brand of the...

    fisrt da project

    Thank you. The roof had oxidation but the 360 cleaned it up really well. My biggest peeve is that around the washer prayers there is a "stain," for lack of a better word, from the washer fluid after the hose came off. When I get it ready for winter I will try to get it off better. I used the...

    fisrt da project

    So I got a DA and used it on my wife's 2003 Escape. I used Pinnacle shampoo, nanoskin on the DA, XMT 360 with a light cutting pad and then topped with Megs NXT 2.0. Also I put aquapel on the front windshield and rear window.

    Bathroom Cleaning

    So has anyone taken their DA to the bathroom, more specifically shower walls? I'm sure I'm not the only one that has thought about it. What did you use and how were the results? Obviously you wouldn't do the floor of the tub/shower as it would become a slippery death tub/shower.

    Best Winter Sealant?

    I saw that there is a DP Poli-Coat Seal/Collinite combo that is only $40 so that's a possibility. I saw some other threads before I posted this one, but I noticed that the ones I found were a few years old. I only asked since new products have come out since then to see if any preferences...

    Best Winter Sealant?

    Thanks guys. Collinite seems like the way I'm leaning. Can't beat it for the price.

    Best Winter Sealant?

    I live in PA in the Harrisburg/Lancaster area and I was wondering what the best sealant is for the winter months? I've been looking at Klasse, Duragloss and Collinite. Any input would be much appreciated. Also, this is for daily drivers that unfortunately are not garage kept since we are...

    What type of clay bar to use?

    I was looking at all the different types/brands of clay bars and wondering what is the best type to use? I would be using it for daily driver cars. In the past I would use the Megs clay bar that you can get at the local auto parts store. When I was with Tuscarora Dave the other day I forgot...

    Well, I went over to TuscaroaDave's today and we had a great day. I learned at least, if not more, a years worth of information from him. He is a great and kind man with lots of knowledge to share if he has the time. He let me use his machines so now I feel comfortable getting my own to...
