Hey all, Since we're all pretty much stuck at home, I decided to be productive and do a real thorough detail on my Mercedes AMG. I'm really happy with the results and will post some pics and the full routine after I can take some better outdoor shots. In the meantime, I have a question about...

Hi all...Since I'm stuck in the house for the foreseeable future, I thought it would be a great opportunity to really take my time and do my Spring details. I am having one problem though. I cannot find IPA anywhere to perform my wipe down after polishing. Does anyone out there have any...

Hey all...I'm a relative amateur here and really only do work on my own cars. I recently took delivery of a Mercedes AMG C43. I LOVE the car. The prep from the dealer was actually pretty good but I needed to spend some time to make it as close to perfect as possible. Luckily we had a pretty...

THanks...we love it so far.

Thanks! Yah I'm pretty excited. I'm coming out of a BMW M235 which I love. It was time for something a little different. And the HP bump and new facelift on the C43 this year make it even more potent. It's going to be a long two months.

Thanks for the advice. I'll be sure to do better decontamination after the winter. I ordered a '19 C43 AMG in Selenite Gray with black interior. Pretty psyched. I got the night package just like this car. I'm going to run the same process when it arrives to get ready for the Illinois...

Thank you, sir. My wife is happy. Gives me an excuse to work on mine, :)

Hey all...I'm a relative amateur here and haven't really done a good detail in years. However, my wife and picked up this Mercedes GLA last week. It was a demo car and came to us with just over 1000 miles on it. Overall, it was in pretty good shape, but under the lights you could see some fine...

I do have Blackfire in my arsenal. I'll give it a shot. Thanks!

Thanks Mike. No I didn't get the differential. The only compromise I had to make was to get the Xdrive model. With the driving, I do and the climate, there is little I can do to avoid it. I could just imagine my wife turning this guy around in a snowy corner with RWD. I'd love a sealant...

I live in Guilford. Are you close? Feel free to PM me.

Thanks. I've been using Pinnacle Crystal Mist, but I'll try the Megs at less than a third of the price!

Thanks man...I love it so far.

Hi there...I thought I'd share a refreshing story for once. I've taken delivery on a number of new cars over the years and the condition I've received the cars in has varied. I've had some that are pretty good and some that were simply hacked. So I thought I'd share a good experience for once...

Sorry if I wasn't clear. I don't want to polish the car with 101 or 105 first pass, but I want to use it periodically if the paint needs correction. I was going to go to 205 and then to a sealant and wax. Make sense? Or should I look at a different product?

Hey all...new to this forum but done a lot of detailing in the past. I just ordered a new BMW M235 in Alpine White so I'm dusting off my equipment to get ready. I have both a DA and rotary. I've used Menzerna products on my other cars, but I think I'm going to try M101/205 on my bimmer since I...

Thanks guys. I've been really happy with Menzerna 203, so it sounds like I'll give that a try on this paint. It's in fairly good shape with a few fine lines from what was more than likely a bad wash at the dealer - shocker. 203 with a green pad should take care of that. I might switch from...

Hey there...I just brought home a 2013 328xi in Mineral Gray. I was wondering if anyone out there has any experience with this paint they'd like to share before I undertake the first detail? I'm looking for products that seem to work well for others. I have both a rotary and D/A polisher and...
