Aquapel advertises "Makes it easier to clear ice, snow, and even dirt and bugs" Aquapel Glass Care, Rain repellent, aqua-pel, glass sealer, windshield repellent But it's not going to prevent ice from forming, pretty sure only your physical barrier will do that. Sent from my SM-G935T using...

I have both and havent used any clay bars since I got my mitt. Much quicker and easier. Clay may still have a place for smaller areas that are hard to get a mitt into but for the most part I think clay alternatives are superior. Sent from my SM-G935T using Tapatalk

While nothing can guarantee they won't wash, I think a combination of having the car as clean as possible inside and out with a rear view mirror "don't wash" sign gives one the best chance at avoiding dealer washes. I also have a Cquartz window sticker (coated last summer with UK 2.0) which I...

One thing to consider is a pressure washer hooked to a CR spotless will use less water and help your resin last longer if you went that route. Sent from my SM-G935T using Tapatalk

Matte black > gloss black imo! I also have a matte black carbon bike. I'd use some opti seal or maybe a seal meant for matte paints to protect it and call it a day. Sent from my SM-G935T using Tapatalk

Another vote for OPC, one of my favorite products. Doesnt sud up like super Degreaser but cleans just as well if not better. Sent from my SM-G935T using Tapatalk

I use either Megs Super Degreaser or OPC for tires. Megs suds up nicely but leaves my tire brush coated in nasty. Pic below on left is after 3 tires cleaned with Super Degreaser 4:1 and spraying off with pressure washer. Pic on right after cleaning the fourth tire with Optimum Power Clean 3:1...

I agree, no need to toss towels used in application of reload. But regarding towels used to level coatings, here is an interesting video regarding that topic: YouTube Sent from my SM-G935T using Tapatalk

Paint measured in low 80s around sunroof (in front and behind) with a low of 80 on a 2017 Toyota Rav4, door jams in the 60-70 micron range. Seems pretty low for a new car that hasn't been polished before. Anyone come across a similar situation or is this abnormal for a newer Toyota? Surprised...

When I did mine recently I tried one tip with the included applicator and the other with 0000 steel wool as the applicator and didn't notice much, if any difference. Sent from my SM-G935T using Tapatalk

Hopefully since it's a glaze and not a sealant or wax it won't cause any I'll effects to the paint. Sent from my SM-G935T using Tapatalk

Safe for use in paint areas is different than using it on uncured paint. Hopefully you'll be ok, but you did exactly what you aren't supposed to do on a new paint job. Sent from my SM-G935T using Tapatalk

P21s polishing soap here as well. Really like the ease of use plus great results. Sent from my SM-G935T using Tapatalk

I like Optimum Opti-clean. Cleans well, smells decent and leaves some protection. Optimum Opti Clean Cleaner & Protectant, Opticlean all purpose cleaner protectant Sent from my SM-G935T using Tapatalk

Thanks for all the input guys; I'm leaning toward saving up for the Rupes at this point!

Love my CR Spotless - really takes the stress out of washing. No hurry, no worry about water spots. Definitely worth the money for me. Sent from my SM-G935T using Tapatalk

I currently have several larger random orbital machines, including a 7424 I use with 3" backing plate but I want something for use with 2" and 1" pads. I haven't used a rotary before but I'm willing to learn. I like that the iBrid can function in both rotary and random orbital modes, but is it...

Went on vacation to Newport Beach, CA area last week and the wife booked us on a tour of the harbor. Was kind of zoning out when I heard the guide say, "and that home is owned by Barry Meguiar, owner of Meguiar's car care product company." That brought me to attention and I snapped a couple...

I used last touch cut 1:1. I think any clay lube would be fine. Sent from my SM-G935T using Tapatalk

I just used my nanoskin on my travel trailer and it worked great. I tried to be careful when crossing the stickers and mostly tried to clay lightly on the stickers themselves without too much contact across the edges. Use plenty of clay lube and be gentle around the stickers and you should be...
