    Product testers needed: Prototype Rinseless Wash

    Without access to a hose, about 99% of my car washes are either rinseless or waterless. The other 1% is the rare occurrence for me to perform an Iron-X decon. I have tried the following: ONR v1 as rinseless ONR v1 as waterless (in QD ratio, I know it's not recommended but I still tried it)...

    Easy contest

    My vote goes for the name Max. Inspiration: Jessica Alba's character in Dark Angel was Max Guevara. Your description reminded me of the show.

    Hybrid waxes and bonding

    True. But one could argue that it could be more important in a real world setting. If you discover issues in a lab environment with ideal conditions, the real world conditions could accelerate and/or exacerbate those issues. I agree. I was more curious about products that are marketed as...

    Hybrid waxes and bonding

    Cool! That's actually what I was expecting and hoping to hear. So that's the thing. The overall chemical formula for Fuzion would promote the polymers in it to crosslink with each other. I understand that the carnauba portion of both waxes is the same. So let's take a step back. Taking out the...

    Hybrid waxes and bonding

    Since hybrid waxes have synthetic polymers in addition to carnauba wax in the formula; they are, in theory, supposed to have more longevity. So, this got me thinking about potential bonding issues when applying a hybrid wax over another hybrid wax. For example, one day you decide to wash, clay...

    Lexus RCF Ultrasonic Mica Blue 2.0, 4-Stage Paint Wax Recommendations?

    Congrats on the new car! That's a cool color. Out of curiosity, what made you choose an RC-F instead of an M3/M4, an RS-5, or a Cayman S? I think there is some terminology confusion here. Initially, when I read your thread title, I read it as you were planning on performing a 4-stage detail...

    Perfect time to buy a FLEX Polisher - Pre Labor Day Sale at PinnacleWax.com

    Doh! I wish I didn't see this. I just placed an order a few days ago. I'm sure I'll love it, but knowing I could have saved some money by waiting a few days hurts a little...

    Window Tint Adhesive Removal?

    If you've already peeled the film off the front two windows, then use some soapy water and a razor blade to remove the adhesive. Be careful not to go overboard and accidentally cut any plastic or rubber, but this would be the quickest way to remove the adhesive. Make sure the glass is wet when...

    alpha Detailed: 08 S2000 GPW CR - In Progress & Help Requested

    I do have to agree with akimel. Taking the wheels off makes cleaning the arches much, much easier on the s2000. To clarify on my earlier post, I normally wouldn't take the wheels off just for regular washes, but I would take them off for full details like this. Anyways, another update: I...

    It's not necessary. I just wanted to give it a thorough cleaning and felt like taking the wheels off.

    alpha Detailed: 08 S2000 GPW CR - In Progress & Help Requested

    Here's some after pics pre-LSP. I'm going to apply a layer of sealant tonight, let it cure overnight, apply another layer tomorrow, let it cure, and then apply a layer of SSII. The second pic is of the hood.. It's not 100% corrected, but it's probably about 95% if not a little more corrected...

    alpha Detailed: 08 S2000 GPW CR - In Progress & Help Requested

    Thanks for the quick response. I only mentioned the Swirl X and Step2 Polish because I have it from before when I used to do things by hand. I have some Wolfgang's Total Swirl Remover 3.0 and Wolfgang's Finishing Glaze 3.0 (came with a PC kit I bought). So I'm using these two instead of the...

    alpha Detailed: 08 S2000 GPW CR - In Progress & Help Requested

    Hello All, This is my first time using a PC. I bought a 7424XP, but I had to send it back for an exchange since it was defective. Anyways, I found out that one of my friends has a 7336SP and he let me borrow it. I have some questions, and some in progress photos. This isn't my first detail...
