    Hard / Medium / Soft - Paint ???

    Thanks for clearing things for me. I guess I've heard white paint was added titanium

    Hard / Medium / Soft - Paint ???

    I can understand UC as it is less abrasive than the other two but you mention M101 too. Isn't M101 as abrasive as M105, and remove as much in the inexperienced hands? Don't get me wrong, I did the same an got M101, but still would like to learn why this was the right decision :)

    D151 Pad Choice

    Is there a possibility that d151 can leave holograms behind and cover these marks until the protective layer vanishes by time or cleaned by a solvent? I've seen some videos people using wool plus D151 and getting good correction plus a good shine. I guess wool inflicts its own scratches anyway...

    2nd Buffer?

    Why not getting a rotary as the second machine? You can compound using the rotary and finish with the DA, of DA by itself isn't enough for the job.

    Lake Country Pad Question

    Don't they trap fresh compound and prevent it broken down into finer particles? I guess they would be better with SMAT polishes and AIO sealants etc.

    Sonax Carnauba Wax

    Well, I haven't touched it yet but there is one in the mail. The reviews I could find address that this is an easy wax to use, has decent durability although nowhere near a Collinite but around 2-3 months, and the looks are told to be like P21s Concourse like. The box seems to have an MF and...

    And thanks for that. I'm buying a bottle of Hydro Wash for the first thing I order from the UK.

    1Z Einszett Glanz Shampoo?

    Would like to confirm if we really can use Perls shampoo as a waterless wash, and how. Thanks.

    Whats your favorite car shampoo?

    Ok, it says no polymers in descriptions so I stand corrected at this point. On another forum I found a description for Hydro Wash given by Prima itself: "Hydro Wash was designed specifically to compliment Hydro Seal. They work together to repel and remove dirt from your protected surfaces...

    Whats your favorite car shampoo?

    Have anyone tried Prima Hydro Wash as a maintenance shampoo? They say it's a fabulous one but its manufacturer says it may strip waxes and put its own polymers.

    Positive Meguiars Experience

    I always loved the way Meguiar's products work. They are easy and usually focus only on what a customer would ask for. Like my experience with Nxt2.0 wax. It wasn't that long lived in durability department but being such an easy product you can apply it every month. And swirl filling is its best...

    Collonite Marine waxes

    Aren't they really the same formulas as their automobile waxes? Like Fleetwax Paste Wax is the same as 476s.

    Misting Your Pads With Water

    Water usually cuts through the lacking lubrication in a drying compoud and the abrasive particles run more un-buffered. This results more cut with a cutting compound, while may result to lower sharpness with a finishing compound.

    Sun/Heat Safe Products

    Megs NXT2.0 worked out great last time I used. But must add Mark-V Dazzle. It went on and off butter smooth on a bright, sunny day. While Autoglym Ultra Deep Shine went concrete at and instance. Tried Poorboys Natty's Blue Paste once but it wasn't that easy under the sun, though were nowhere...

    What do you do with old foam polisher pads?

    They make nice and safe Frisbees for kids :) Or I cut them into four and use them to apply trim or tire dressings. You can always stick the backing back on a not totally spent pad, though. A waterproof, elastic contact adhesive works out great. Spray ones may work even better.

    Dodo Juice Tyromania Review - TLC Auto Detail

    I used a trim safe carnauba wax on the wheels this week and although it wasn't built solely for tyres it left a really natural look on them. I feel confident that I'll love this paste too if I get it one day. Interested to see the durability too.

    Best finishing polish I've ever used on soft paint..

    I can't find the cleaner in local rep's list but have those #1, #2 and #3 waxes instead. So which AIO do you think this cleaner matches in cleaning and correction would you say?

    Best finishing polish I've ever used on soft paint..

    The definition says it fills with nano particles and this can mask the holograms hugely. Have you stripped the fillers for inspection?

    Are boat products different than automotive stuff?

    Thanks for the replies. I know, I've met some questions on the same topic before, but many were asking if their car wax would work on their boat. I found a test on boat sealants and some sealants really were said to have good self cleaning abilities lasting almost a year. Most of these long...

    Dodo Juice Tyromania Review - TLC Auto Detail

    Nice reviews. I may order a pot of this. I applied a shiny dressing yesterday and my car looks cheap to me today. Shiny doesn't fit my daily driver.
