    Best tire dressings?

    M40 says it cleans/protects while leaving a natural sheen. Just curious if you cleaned with someone else and then used M40 for that result, or only used M40? Also, looks great!

    Griots Speed Shine Question

    Strangely, it is maybe the only product I've tried from them that I haven't liked very much. I felt like it would streak more easily than I like. I could have been the problem, though. I am interested in seeing that too. I imagine it will be more lubricity less "wax". Not quite sure where it...

    Do you NEED to prep before waxing?

    Lets say you detail a car to your satisfaction and you have put some wax on it. Then you park the car indoors until the wax goes away (I'm assuming it eventually would, but correct me if I'm wrong). Now you want to reapply the wax. Do you need to prep the surface? I imagine claying might be a...

    Can car wash shampoo be diluted to a rinseless wash?

    This is pretty obvious in hindsight now, but I didn't put two and two together. Thanks.

    Can car wash shampoo be diluted to a rinseless wash?

    Hello, I am wondering if anyone has information or experiences to share regarding diluting car wash shampoo to a rinse less wash? Is this possible, or are there issues? I realize car wash shampoos almost surely have less lubricity then a rinseless wash. But perhaps this can be remedied by...

    Review: Pinnacle Black Label Waterless Wash and Protect

    I'm not 100% clear on what you mean by "open sides" but the key takeaway seems to be moving the contact point, which is what I try to do in these situations. I was just wondering whether Mike does so as well, or if he feels it isn't necessary due to the nap, or maybe he simply has a different...

    Review: Pinnacle Black Label Waterless Wash and Protect

    Thanks for the article, Mike. When I am doing a rinse less or waterless wash on a car that has "larger" dirt on it (like those bug turds on your Golden Eagle) I always worry that somehow they will get dragged across the paint. For example, suppose that bug turds were at the start of a fresh...

    Small dirt in Wookie's fist: worth cleaning?

    After using the Wookie's Fist I go through it and check for anything trapped in the fibers. Usually all I find is some small flecks of dirt deep in the mitt (which means the Grit Guard and the mitt are both doing their job). Since the Wookie's fist is so thick though, finding and picking out...

    Supreme 530 and Super plush junior

    Is there a reason to have both of these towels (aside from having different colored towels for different purposes)? Or is the choice between them just personal preference? On the microfiber chart they have the same uses listed.

    Removing swirls from coating and then not re-coating?

    Hi, I picked up a (black) car a few years back and it had a coating on it. It has since developed some light swirls that I wish to remove. However, I do not intend to re-coat after polishing (One reason for not re-coating is that I don't know which coating was applied). Instead, I will apply a...

    Leather care: Using Wolfgang cleaner with Pinnacle protectant

    Hi, What are the opinions on using a Wolfgang leather cleaner with Pinnacle protectant? (specifically "Wolfgang Leather Care Cleaner" with "Pinnacle Black Label Leather and Vinyl Coating") I figure theres not issue with this, but would I be foregoing some benefits of using just one of the...

    Is this how a natural chamois should be?

    So I ordered a 6.5 sq. ft natural chamois a while back -- admittedly not from auto geek, which is perhaps why I'm unsure of the towel's condition -- and have two questions regarding it. Both these questions deal with how the towel was when I first got it (and how the towel still is); I am not...

    Applying wax over Wolfgang DGPS

    I am planning to apply wax over wolfgang Deep gloss paint sealant. I am just wondering if I should apply it after the DGPS cures for 12 hours, or before? I'm assuming after.
