    I will get a close up picture on my B-pillars (thanks for educating me AGOatemywallet) and see if it has clear coat. I'm not sure that it does.

    I don't think the clear is failing in them, I'd have to imspect them a little better but I'm pretty sure they r just super dull

Its super faded out and looks HORRIBLE. What products are out there for this? Again I don't want to use a dressing, I...

    Plastic bumpers

    Hey guys, So I attached a picture of my bumper and it's all plastic.. I'm wondering what's the best way to work on it and what's a good product to use on it? Can i just use regular swirl remover products and buff it? I don't want to use any kind of dressing products. Thanks for any advice!

    Doing touch up spots

    Hey guys, So this past weekend I did a full detail restoration to my black Buick Lacrosse. Although I am very happy with the results and the performance of the products used, there's still a LOT of spots on the car that need work. Most spots are scratches that r just too deep (i can catch them...

    Also with the PC I feel as if u only can really apply a good amount of pressure on speed 5-6 and keep it spinning.. When I dropped down to speed 4-3 it's hard to keep it spinning if applying to much pressure.. At times I felt like I wasnt applying enough pressure when on speed 4.. Is this...

    And also, I was very pleased with the results from the products and how my first detail restore came out but I feel like I just didn't go aggressive enough.. The paint on this car has A LOT of defects, most of which can not be removed without a rotary polisher and I'm just not skilled enough for...

So I went Wolfgang TSR (Orange pad speed 5), Wolfgang finishing glaze (Grey pad speed 4.5), and meguiars #21 synthetic sealant (red pad speed 3) and I do have my pad marked and was making sure my pad was spinning (I've watched a lot of ur videos so I know most of the...

    Hey Mike I used the Orange ccs lake country pad for the TSR and a grey for polish and red for wax.. Should I have been using speed 6 for the TSR? The car is an everyday driver and has never been worked on so I can imagine how bad of shape she is in.. Anyway I was on speed 5the whole time and was...

    That's something I did mess up on.. When I applied my sealant I didn't really do section passes, I just kind of spread it on all over the car in a neat fashion. I just set my pc on speed 3.5 and went to town but I realize I should have slowed down and done 2-3 passes while overlapping on...

    Can you see the lines that I'm talking about? Its kind of hard to see in the picture but I looked at it in a brighter light and you can actually see my buffing/pad lines.. Like u can actually see how it looked (without the actual haze of the sealant obviously) before I whipped the sealant off...
