Try a small test spot of some diluted DIF used for wallpaper removal, just don't let it sit too long as you want to be able to peel off as a sheet not scraps.

Vinyl wrap the hood!

Got ya... Hard for me to say as I really only use Rupes and even within that system I pretty much stick to wool and yellow foam depending on what I need to cut and finish down a white foam pad... Again just my thought, it has some form of a coating on it correct? I would probably go wool or...

No luck making it up to Stuart? I was kind of hoping it was going to be a on line video course! What machine are you using? I am going to suggest what I would do because I know it works.... Why risk is the coating gone or not.... M105 followed by 205, nobody will be able to say for sure it is...

Neither has been overly hard to apply, I started with Gtechniq's based of Mike's reviews and it was everything he indicated... Cquartz was slightly more time consuming, but nothing that couldn't be done every few weeks if need be, without hassle... It mostly in my head, as I haven't had...

You really can't go wrong with Sonax... This wheels look like they would be a good candidate to come off the car for a deep cleaning package of some sort....

I recently had to deal with a similar issue! I coated of vacation house car, no garage, outdoors all the time etc... I used Gtechniq's Crystal Serum Light and EXO products... Prepped the car the day before, started the coating process at ,5am and was done around 9am mainly to avoid the intense...

Thanks! I gave it the water test, and well its certainly still doing something, just not sure it is protecting much as it tended to initially bead right up but than be semi absorbed, pretty sure if I hadn't wiped it off quickly it would of spotted... I have about 2 more weeks here in the Florida...

Interestingly Gtechniq's technical support says their tri cleaner will not strip leather guard and I will need to use a fairly abrasive cleaner. They however did bot elaborate on what to use...Honestly after applying it, I can't see it being that strong... I am wondering it a solution of 80/20...

Thanks for all the help!

Hiding out at the vacation home so some Gtechniq Tri Cleaner and Detailers Pride Interior Cleaner, but Autogeek is only a day or two delivery if you think I am better off with something else! I am a little paranoid lol, I took what was on the lot but the leather option on this thing was steep...

Thanks! Here is my concern... What would be strong enough to remove what is left of the leather guard, but not harsh enough to harm the leather?

3 month's ago I picked up a new car and treated all the leather components with Gtechniq's leather guard (3 coats)... Recently I treated a few other cars with CarPro's leather coating. It may be in my head, but I am really impressed with CarPro's leather coating and the ease of application. Any...

Congrats and THANKS Mike! Over the years I have spent hundreds of hours reading, learning and trying new products. Enjoy the pool!

Lets just say for arguments sake it is the coating. What on Earth is the coating doing? Coating has long cured, if it cleans up, water and soap reactivates it and it smears? I am sure he is getting the run around no matter from whoever applied the coating, but I would love to know what they are...

My wife's old Mercedes CLA had a similar grille, usually an IPA wipe cleaned it up or a light buff with a cleaner wax... If I remember correctly it was more of a painted plastic insert...

From another perspective... I think the term correction gets thrown around way too much! What you consider true correction vs a customers expectations and budget maybe 2 totally different things! I have seen full 3 plus stages of correction producing near perfect results offered at $1,000 and I...

Sadly, I just finished off the last of mine before Coating this Honda... I will say I am finding South Florida a bit harsher on our cars than the Northeast....

I am in Boca for the summer and have coated more than a few cars if you want a second opinion on whats going on with it....
