    What did I do to this Alloy wheel and How can I fix it?

    Hi Lauren. Just saw your post, I have had good results using WENOL Metal Polish. Very easy to use. It quickly removes surface rust, oxidation, stains, hard water spots and soap stains. Let me know if it works for you. Good luck.

    4* leather cleaner and conditioner.

    The products you mentioned are quality ones. However, I guess I am from the old school. I have tried many products over the years but I always go back to LEXOL. Always good results, no problems. It has been around a long, long time. The seats in my Vette and Acura are extremely soft, no...

    If you are not using a buffer, let us know why!

    I prefer hand polishing. In my opinion, I get better results. No swirls. I guess it is how I was taught by an old time detailer. I have tried a buffer, while it is much faster and results are good I still prefer hand polishing. Just my opinion. Have done detailing on the side for many years...

    How long to wait between coats of carnauba?

    If you use just a carnauba it is ok to apply the second coat immediately, this will not harm the paint. i personally spray the car with cold water after the first coat and reapply the next day. Have done this for years and very pleased with results. However, if you use a sealant it is best to...

    is it OK to use a quick detailer everyday?

    I have used a Ca. duster on my vette and acura for years follow with a quality quick detailer, never had a problem. Only caution would be if your vehicle is dirty, then a wash is in order. Quick detailer can be used as often as you want will only keep it looking good. Im the MAN
