Dang, that APC is cheap to. $13 for a gallon? Nice... I have Clear Coated rims. Would the APC be good for them? Now, when you say 10:1 or 4:1. I know it means parts, but whats the best way to get it right? Say I got one of the 32oz spray bottles, how would I messure out say 10:1? This thread...

I will deffenitly look into the ONR. That seems like a good addition to help keep whatever dirt that does get into the wash bucket suspended. Not very expensive as well. What APC have you used for the wheels that works the best when diluted? I have been looking at buying some of the Gel...

I use seperate wash mitts for the rims for sure. I also use the two bucket method and throw out the rinse bucket before doing the car. I have been using the same wash bucket, but never have I put a dirty mitt into the wash bucket.

Well, I kinda eliminated part of the problem.... Just gave in a purchased a Foam Master gun :buffing: It seems my major problem has bee getting enough soap on the car to really clean and not scratch. I did a full polish a little over 2 months ago and I already have swirls again. Hopefully this...

So... i just recently purchased some Optimum soap. It says to use one ounce per gallon. I also got one of the 5 gallon buckets. Now, my question is; How do I know how much to use? Im obviously not filling the entire bucket with water, so I am not using 5 ounces. I usally use about 3 cap fulls...

Just used this product with a Lake Country Orange pad on my back windshield. My back windshield was loaded with water spots and film that just would not come off. I clay bared the windows each time I did the car but it was to no good. I had to do about three passes and then a final pass with a...

Thanks for the tip. I know it will not be perfect since I am only doing one or two products, then the glaze ect... just want a touch up from what the weather and the stupid cats have caused.

So about 2 months ago I did a complete polish on my car. First time ever, and I used the XMT line, Poorboy's Glaze/sealant/wax. Well the car is a DD and due to the harsh weather around here and my cats (bein fixed this week as I finish the garage) walking on it, I have some new light...

I hear ya man. I need to order some more polish and pads. Would like to get some Tire/Wheel cleaner and a Speed Brush. Money is to limited for this hobby!

Thanks for all the responses everyone. I decided to go with Optimum's soap for now. Will see how it works :xyxthumbs:

After looking at the Optimum, that seems like a good choice. Does 1oz of it really provide enough suds? If so, thats 32 weeks of washes. I mainly just want something that is going to be really lubricated so I down cause any scratchs or swirls. Bawiy1904, I don't detail as a job or anything. All...

So, I have been using Meguiar's Gold Class from Wally world forever. I want to try and find something a little more powerful, but not striping powerful. I live in South MS so winters are not to harse (this one has been tho). Summer time is the worse with the heat, dust/sand, and it rains a lot...

Pick me Autogeek.net!

You have sheep in your car! Might want to get that checked out :D I just went from the bottom through the hood as to not damage the paint from the drill slipping. The hood was vibrating a good bit after I raised it due to the bumper, hence why I added the pins hehe.

Alright, thanks. I plan to buy some of the good Cobra ones eventually, just short on money after spending $200 on all the chemical stuff and buying Christmas for awhile. I live by the saying "You get what you pay for" so I wanted to make sure they were quality MF that would not make the...

Ohhh ya, because all V6s are slow right? :bash: I have a Cobra front bumper. The 03/04 Cobra bumpers do not fit right under my hood style and therefore the hood had to be lifted about half an inch for clearance. This caused a vibration issue when going at highway speeds, so I added the pins for...

I noticed this thread has not been updated since October, so hope im not bumping a thread that it to old... Was wondering if anyone had some views on the towels? I need to purchase some good quality towels for my upcoming polishing session and these seemed like a good price for two 4 packs...

Well, finally decided to join the forums here. I have been browsing through Autogeek for some time and made a few orders. I just purchased over $200 worth of polishing supplied for my car, a Red 2003 Mustang V6. I have the best GF in the world who is buying me a PC 7427XP for Christmas :props...
