    Corvette Wheel Lug Nut Cleaning & Polishing Brush

    I used on last night on my Impreza it does work well. How long it will last ???, but with an extra foam head included and costing under CDN $ 9.00 you could buy one every 6 months and it would not break the bank.

    The Colour Blue --- Light or Dark

    I am aware of prep work. I spend 4 to 6 hours on the exterior of a Miata to do a three stage job. What I am trying to get at, is in reading here about product selection, you see 'On your black car you must use Brand X' or 'you have a red car, Product Y will make your colour pop'.

    Hello from Vancouver Canada

    Just dropped by to say hello. Not new to detailing (by hand) but just bought a PC to bring the work up a few notches. (The '92 Miata is easy to do by hand (4 hours) but just bought a '09 Impreza and the better half drives a Vibe and those cars are big and take forever to do.) I have been...

    Canadian who would like to order from AUTOGEEK

    I to am from Canada and am checking prices between AG and eShine. Can I say the prices are all over the map eShine has better pricing Pinnacle (if you count free shipping, exchange and possible duty) but on Wolfgang AG is far better especially if you buy a swirl kit. All this just makes the...
