Hi Tex!! I've put my order in and am just waiting for my goodies to arrive so I can get going!! I could have used those acronyms a couple of weeks ago. I finally figured out what APC was!! :laughing: Hey, while I'm here, I've got a question. I ordered CarPro DLux to seal/protect the black...

Thanks to all who helped me. I placed my order today!!

I'm going to order and apply the DLux to my plastics including the wheel wells. I figure that taking the time to use a sealant up front will look better and save time and money in the long run over a SOWA.

Okie dokie; that's easy enough and will save me the cost of the Erase.

Okay, so from what I'm reading, I could use straight IPA from the drug store instead of purchasing Car Pro Erase. Is that right?

This is what sold me on the product. I've read a few reviews done by detailers who used it, one of which lives is Florida. Their cars were outside 24/7 and after a year the exterior plastics still look great. My MKC is garaged so I'm expecting the Pro Car DLux to last at least a couple of...

Boy, do I feel dumb!! Now I realize that the Car Pro Erase is the isopropyl alcohol. I will definitely be getting some of that and will apply it after I wash the car. Actually it sounds to me like that should do the trick as it will remove any residual oil or polish from the plastic surfaces...

Do I? Is that to use on the exterior plastics to prep for the DLux application? I wasn't sure as the car is new. I was hoping that maybe all it would need is a thorough rinse and dry before applying the DLux. I started a thread asking about it because almost everyone preps for the...

Thanks for the links. I had already read link #1. He's the guy who used the isopropyl alcohol in his prep. In link #2, the prep is to wash with an APC and then use an eraser - yet ANOTHER way to prep before applying the product. In Link #3, the guy was prepping for more than just an...

I’m going to apply this product to the exterior black plastics on my new MKC. The plastic surface has had nothing applied to it except water when rinsing the car. The car only has 500 miles on it and has been garaged. I have read a couple of reviews and am reading different methods of...

Okay, I guess I'll wait for another sale to place my order. I did order some foam tipped applicators (3 different shapes) on Amazon. I saw a review of the product and the detailer doing the review had used a couple of foam tipped applicators so I know they'll work for small, tight spaces.

Okay, Bill; will do. If I see him coming out with one bucket wearing a spiked belt, I know to run!! LOL!! Seriously though, I truly understand how important it is to be careful. I'm paying good money for this car (the first brand new car for me that I've ever gotten) and I plan to have it...

I didn't even know there was even such a thing as an MKC until I went to a Ford/Lincoln dealer to test drive the Escape and the Edge. Afterward the sales person showed me the MKC and I immediately knew it was "my car". Like I said, I'm mostly driving my old car until I get the MKC detailed...

I didn't think about wrapping the suede applicators around something. What a great idea!! I did think about ordering extra Car Pro suede applicators and think I will do that. I'm starting with the interior because I want to get some confidence doing something that I think I can handle...

Hey, where did everyone go?? :help: I have read some reviews online and am sold on the Car Pro DLux Plastic and Wheel Coating. I even read a review of Car Pro DLux vs the same type of product made by Ultima and the Car Pro fared better. Okay, so I need another recommendation. The grille...

Hmmm.....that doesn't sound too hard. I think that I'll try cleaning and coating/sealing/protecting (whatever you guys call it) the exterior plastics and see how that goes before I decide to tackle the paint. The car has been kept garaged and is kept clean. All I've had to do (and I didn't...

Okay, here's the question about the CarPro DLux (CQuartz DLux Plastic and Wheel Coating Kit - right?) Can a total newbie apply this product correctly? Also, the plastic along the bottom of the car has a 1" chrome strip with a little of the plastic above it and a wider section of plastic below...

Wow!! That's amazing!! I'll definitely be checking out that trim product that you used!!

That's exactly what I want - a product that I can use to coat/seal/protect (whatever the right terminology is) that will prevent fading and last long enough so that my detailing stays "fun" instead of becoming work.

:cry: Does that mean that I can't order it? Or can I order it and they'll send it when it comes in?
