Thanks Mike! I feel honored that you took the time to post in this thread. The paint on my car is very soft. I'm a relative novice to detailing and it took me forever to get the paint right. I've been very diligent in how I wash (2 bucket, typically a new wash towel every 2nd panel) and...

The wheel barrels on my factory Mustang wheels aren't painted but may have a clear coat on them, I'm not sure. One of them is pretty beat up inside from road salt or something (but looks perfect on the front) so I figure I'll try the magic eraser on that one.

Back at ya! :)

I doubt that it strips anything. As was mentioned, V7 will streak like mad on bare paint. That's one way I know that it's time to reapply sealant/wax.

Maybe he just uses it on the insides of the wheels?

That's a great idea. Thank you, sir!

Hahahaha, I was thinking to myself "what the hell is a common tub?". I use Megs APC, the orange is what I have. Open the window and turn the fan on. Maybe use the APC with the drill setup. Let us know how the drill works, I may try that.

It's Dark Highland Green and it's EXTREMELY

I think I pushed down too hard. The marring came right out with a light buff of M205 The car is garaged, driven maybe a couple of times a week and I'm obsessive about keeping it clean. With my hand, I felt no roughness, which prompted me to use a baggie. Yep, live and learn. I used...

I use a Daytona brush for regular washes and pull my wheels every few months for a more thorough cleaning and sealing. Sonax Full Effect wheel cleaner and then Poor Boys Wheel Sealant. The brush hasn't harmed my wheels. I like the magic eraser idea! Anti chrome

Great review and I agree with your assessment. I use V7 after every wash. A little goes a long way so the $40 I spent on the gallon size was justified. My dog loves the smell of it, too. Anti chrome

Anyone else experience this? I've been meticulous in how I wash my car and it has paid off. 6 months and no swirls/marring except in a few small areas. In the process of cleaning the paint to reapply sealant I felt the paint with my bare hand it was smooth as can be. I then used the baggie...

I have a Metro and really like it. The only drawbacks are the aforementioned small bag and you can't lift liquids with it. The fact that the bag is washable is nice. Anti chrome

What is a common tub? I have an old porcelain tub and use really hot water and one of those green 3M scrub pads to cut the soap scum. Then I use Megs APC diluted 5:1. Does nothing for mildew/mold but really cleans the tub. Anti chrome

I have a Proheat and find the suction to be very poor and the brush feature utterly useless. I use a scrub brush instead. When my budget allows it will be replaced by something better. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I use Pinnacle speed clay with ONR/distilled water and BF clay extender and haven't had any problems. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I 100% agree with you on the V8/Stick combo. Until I bought my '09 Bullitt, I hadn't owned a car with a V8 in 20+ years. Small displacement imports were my thing. Until I drove a Mustang, that is. Yes, it's big but the power more than makes up for it. It's nice to have that power on tap...

Congrats on the purchase! Track Pack is the way to go. I wanted to upgrade from an '09 to '13 or '14 but my budget won't allow. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I toss mine in a bucket of hot water, let the wax/sealant get soft then spray with Dawn Power Dissolver, work it in and let them sit for a few minutes. Then I use a pad brush to remove as much sealant/wax as i can and rinse them with the hottest water I can stand. I then spray with Simple Green...

For my wife's car, which is a DD and sits outside 24/7 durability matters. But for my car, not so much since it's rarely driven in bad weather and sits in a heated/cooled garage 99% of the time. I would like a wheel sealant that lasts a long time. I hate cleaning wheels. Sent from my iPhone...
