Mike, Great info. Thanks for your help. Regards, Dan.

Spring is here, my collection of detailing products is swelling with new stuff, and it's time to get started using the latest tools and techniques. Our cars have not had much care in the last few years due to house remodeling. One technique I want to use is taping, but I've never taped...

That depends... The HP60 requires a 20 amp grounded circuit and has a 12 gauge grounded cord. A flex 3401 pulls 900 watts - 7 amps. To run both simultaneously probably would require a 10 gauge cord and a 30 amp circuit. I paid $110 for my 100 ft 10 gauge extension cord. I.e. it's pricey...

Agfan, Oddly enough, I agree with you. Solid experience with a product and enough experience with other, similar products to make a good comparative analysis is very important to me. Especially irritating to me are the, "this product ROCKS!" fanboy comments. My point is that a pro's comments...

I've never used nxt, but I think it's just a sealant with a different "marketing" name. (If it waddles like a duck and quacks like a duck...) Regards, Dan.

Ordered last night and shipped this morning. I'll compare it to P21S and see how well it works. I'll take pics and write up a short review. Regards, Dan.

Welcome to the wonderful world of "wax". I stopped using wax something like 20 years ago. IMO, sealants of all types are the way to go unless you're willing to apply wax ever month or so. I use Zaino - Z2Pro and Z5Pro. For the last five years I've had no time to detail my Audis. Even...

I'm not a fan of Griot's stuff. I've tried a few items from their store. Overall the products a decent, but there are better choices out for the same or lower price. They are marketing company not a product company. I prefer product companies. Regards, Dan.

:props: on Mike's book. One of the issues a noob faces is the overall detailig process. Mike covers that very well. Regarding the products... I'm becoming a fan of PakShak towels; they offer a great product at a very good price. I prefer Zaino polishes - Z2Pro and Z5Pro. And also Z6 and...

Corey, Well, It looks like I'll need to get a bottle of Trix to try it out. It will be on my order tonight with some other things. Thanks, Dan.

Nice save! Sometimes I wonder how the younger generation survives to become the older generation. :eek: Dan.

Corey, Great review as always! Any idea how Trix compares with P21 wheel cleaner? Thanks, Dan.

L. Balls??? Dan.

Mike, This is a bit confusing. I got a set of hybrid pads after reading that they are probably a better (best?) option for the 3401. And that they were significantly better than the CCS pads for the 3401. From your post above, it looks like you're recommending the CCS pads. Also, you're...

I use several Zaino products, including their sealers, QD, soap, clay, leather treatment, and towels. It's good stuff. If I find something that better meets my needs, I use that. For example, I'll be comparing Leather Master stuff with Zaino Z9/10 shortly. If the LM stuff is better, I'll switch...

I'm a big fan Menzerna polishes. I've tried other brands and nothing works better for me. However, I've only used the old version of Menzerna. I'd like to get fresh stuff. My current Menzerna is Intensive Polish and Finish Polish II. Those are the only names on the containers. I'd like...
