I'm wondering if I need a more aggressive kit, like 3M, or something (easier?) like the Diamondite or Wolfgang kits. Here are a couple of shots I took from above. The front of the lenses are actually in pretty good shape, but the tops look fairly bad, especially right around the edges. Any...

My wife just got a new car tonight and I'm thinking of trying OptiCoat on it. Since it's a brand new car, what do you recommend for the prep? Mainly I was wondering if I should still polish even though it's a new car? I was thinking after washing that I should still do a quick polish using my...

Thanks for the suggestions. I did a very soft, slow wipe down without QD. I'll see how it looks tomorrow in the sun and if I still see streaks then I'll do it again with QD

I just posted the results of my latest detail here http://www.autogeekonline.net/forum/show-n-shine/24964-my-2007-yukon-xl-denali.html. Overall I think it turned out very good and I was able to virtually eliminate all noticeable swirls. My only concern was with the final wax. I applied the...

This was exhausting. Close to 24 hours of work over the course of four days. It's a big truck :buffing:. I've only done serious detailing like this a couple of times and this was by far the most I've ever done. I do have a small issue with the final wax but I'm going to post about that next...

Another vote for the guzzlers :props:

So I just recently bought some WG leather conditioner but haven't used it yet. When you say "coated", what is it coated with and how can I tell if the WG conditioner will be beneficial? The WG product description says nothing about this.

Will applying a second coat of wolfgang deep gloss sealant achieve any benefit (e.g. more protection) or is that just over kill?

I'd rather buy Autogeek Applicators, but I can't pass up a giveaway!

Also, although I don't have a ton of experience, I have read a lot and it seems strange that no polish product description page or instructional video that I have seen on AG has mentioned this??? I'm not criticizing because I think this site is great but just suggesting that, if this is...

Thanks for posting this. I have only polished a couple of times and did not know about IPA wipe downs! But I'm getting ready to polish again so this is perfect timing :goodpost:

I have used maguires gold class spray cleaner/conditioner a few times but was considering trying the wolfgang combo Wolfgang Leather Care Combo, Wolfgang Leather Cleaner, Wolfgang Leather Conditioner For those of that have tried it, what is your opinion? Are the WG products easy to apply? My...

Sorry, I'm still learning acronyms. WOWO = ? I use pinnacle souveran paste wax. And I'm thinking of trying the wolfgang deep gloss sealant and then a layer of souveran.

I have heard that some tire dressings that contain alcohols, like armor all, can in fact cause the rubber to dry out. That's anecdotal but I've heard that from several sources.

I usually apply and remove my wax (souveran paste wax) with my PC7424. For removal, I use a mf bonnet over lambs wool. But I was just reading one of the descriptions of a mf bonnet which said for best results, I should use a terry cloth bonnet for removal and then do final buffing using mf...

Yeah, I have used it a couple of other times. I haven't tried any other high-quality waxes but since I already have this and have been happy with the results, I'll stick to it for now. I'm assuming you're talking about a DA polisher with a foam pad, right? Yes, I have a PC 7424 with a...

I was pretty mortified when I watched a "hand wash" worker dunk a long-handled brush in a bucket, scrub a wheel and wheel well, and then immediately scrub the back panel of the truck.

The main thing I thought made the application of Klasse HG a little harder was that you have to put sooo little on that it is difficult to know for sure that I had even coverage - really can't see it. If I did see it then I assumed I put on too much since it was harder to take off. I'm...

Thanks for the advice. Also, I used the Klasse High Gloss once before. I was pretty happy with the results but I'm also interested in trying another sealant/glaze that is easier to apply? Suggestions?

I'm planning on detailing my truck soon. I was planning on the following steps: 1. clay bar 2. Pinnacle advanced swirl remover (my truck is black and there is a fair bit of swirls/light scratches) 3. Pinnacle finishing polish 4. Klasse AIO 5. Klasse High Gloss sealant/glaze 6. Pinnacle Souveran...
