Pre-Wax Preparation I washed my 2006 Honda Accord using the following: Two bucket method with grit guards, boar’s hair brush, bone sponge and Chemical Guys Citrus Wash at the higher dilution for removing the old wax. I then dried the car using the Guzzler towels. I pulled the car into the...

Just wanted to post a quick update. I received the Scholl Concepts Vintage wax just before going away for the weekend and planned to try it out upon my return. Unfortunately, while we were away some fine gentlemen tried to burglarize our house. Fortunately, the security cameras scared them away...

I top collinite #845 with Liquid Souveran after each weekly (or more frequent) maintenance wash. Looks great and adds a little more shine.

Absolutely Amazing job!

I can't say anything about either of those two as I have never tried them. I can say that I am partial to Meguiar's #5 or #7 glaze. I use them on my Honda which has ridiculously soft paint. It hides any of the swirls that are left on it.

A big thanks to Nick and Autogeek, I can't wait to try out and review the Scholl Concepts Vintage Wax!

I'd love to try the Scholl Concepts Vintage Wax on my cars (1 light colored, 1 medium color and 1 dark color). I've had my eye on trying something other than my standard wax combos lately and this looks like the perfect opportunity. Review and photos will follow!

A very generous offer....PM Sent

Waffle weave glass towel and Megs glass cleaner has been my goto for a while now, couldn't be happier.

I have one of the newer front loading high efficiency washers. I soak and brush my pads (both MF and foam) quickly at the end of a detailing job and then toss them in the washer on the 'handwash' cycle with warm water. They come out perfectly clean and I've seen no durability issues thus far...

I've always believed that surface prep is an important key when using products such as RainX or Aquapel. I have used both products with similarly good results, Aquapel maybe lasting a little longer though. I start by washing my whole car including the glass then dry it with the proper towels. I...

Ironic, but I just dealt with this same situation a few months ago and had great success. Someone vomited in the back seat of my car (and I mean everywhere in the back seat). The vomit unfortunately seeped into nearly every crevice/crack, etc. there was back there. Despite me doing my best to...

+1 for Central Florida/Orlando. Like the previous poster said, hack detailers are a dime a dozen here. Quality detailers can be found but not easily. You could make some serious money here if you wanted to. As for the weather, a lot of true detailers have indoor garages where they do most of the...

I have topped NXT 2.0 with both DP Carnuba, Collinite, etc without any issues. However, I always allow 12-24 hours for the NXT to cure before topping it with anything. To date, I haven't experienced any issues with my cars.

+1 for the Sony noise cancelling headphones. I've had a pair for the last six years, they work great on planes/in noisy environments and are very reasonably priced. I've compared them to the Bose models and find that they are comparable but not quite as good. Price/value ratio is close enough...

+1 for the Lifeproof case. I have had both the Otterbox defender series for my blackberry and iPhone and liked both of them but they are bulky and the rubber membrane eventually stretches and wears out from normal use. The lifeproof case is no where near as bulky and is a solid case without that...

I had the same issue when I first started detailing my cars. I found that I wasn't using enough clay lube while claying. Once I got my technique down I got great results. I would suggest just starting the process over making sure that you inspect your results carefully after each step. If you...

Hi Aray! As a fellow Florida resident I also despise love bug season here. I use a multi-step approach to protecting the finish on my cars. I use Meguiar's synthetic sealant 2.0 topped with Collinite 845 topped with DP MaxWax. Make sure you allow each product to cure for 24 hours after applying...

I have window tint on all my vehicle windows. Here in Florida it's tough not to have it. The sun beats down on cars, heats up the passenger compartment and also fades the interior materials if you don't have tint. I also feel it provides *some* security. I would prefer that everyone not be able...
