    Project Planning - Car Detailing

    Excellent, I am glad someone else understands my line of thought. I agree on the variables. No two of us do things in the same manner. However, like Silverfox stated just having a framework could help a lot of people. We could couple the project plan with flow charts to show decision points...

    Headlight Restoration-new UV sealant idea

    I do not think you are waiting long enough for the coating to dry. It takes some time due to the dilution with mineral spirits.

    Project Planning - Car Detailing

    Hello Everyone, By day job I am a project manager to develop new products. Planning a project is critical to ensure I am successful. I was thinking it may be beneficial to the people on the boards if a project plan template with times was posted for everyone to use when detailing. Obviously...

    polishing windows

    I use a LC white pad when I do windows and just use something with a light abrasive such as Megs 205. Menzerna would certainly work as well just is expensive for glass. After I remove the polish I typically apply Klauss AIO and then finish with Opti seal. For interior I think the best thing is...

    Headlight Restoration-new UV sealant idea

    Great idea to practice with a junk yard headlight! I did not like the idea of 150 degrees, so I started with 100 for 5 minutes and kept increasing the time until the seal releases. Like anything, I would start with the least aggressive time/temp that will work. Hummer H2 headlights are the...

    Headlight Restoration-new UV sealant idea

    I have opened headlights before to install "Halo" type lighting as seen as BMW's. Believe it or not, the standard process from the light manufacturer is to place the headlight assembly in the oven at 150 degrees for 15 minutes. This loosens up the sealant between the body and lens enough to...

    New Product - Optimum Opti-Coat 2.0

    I used Opti Guard on the faded plastics of a Hummer H2 and it is amazing stuff. Restored the color perfectly and will be permanent.

    Problems Washing Microfibers

    Hello, I have had a problem lately ruining perfectly good microfibers in the washing machine. I am using cold water and washing with only microfibers using unscented/uncolored detergent but they come out matted and looking nappy. I am line drying them. Any idea of what could be the issue?

    Sprayer Idea for Meguiar's Wheel Brightener

    Hmmmm, that does not sound promising. However, the pumping mechanism on this one is sealed, so I am not sure it could penetrate the pump body. If it fails I may take it apart and put in viton or kalrez seals.

    Sprayer Idea for Meguiar's Wheel Brightener

    Meguiar's wheel brightener is known to eat spray bottles. I went to Home Depot and purchased the spray bottle in the link below. I took it apart the best I could and it appears it does not have any seals or anything that would break down. At $6.98 I figured it could not hurt to try. I will be...

    Megs Wheel Brightner... OMG!

    "Yes WB can hurt the wheels finished. Its not designed to be used all the time." Not trying to question you but it this from experience or did you read it somewhere? I have used it quite a bit with no issues. Could it be diluted further like 8:1 for regular use?
