    What is your favorite Spray on Wax??

    Same here. D156 is truly an awesome product, especially at the $20/gal that it was being sold for. It is not finicky and works streak-free in just about every environmental condition. A lot of spray waxes are finicky, but Meguiars really did their homework on this one and came out with something...

    Favorite QD for Coated Cars?

    I'm looking for a QD for coated cars - something that adds lubrication, some slickness and some gloss. I'm considering Meguiars M135, Optimum Instant Detailer and HD Touch. What are you folks using?

    Menzerna SIP or PF2500 as a one step?

    2500 if I had to. But take a look at the new Rupes UHS system (pad and compound) when it launches in a week or two - its supposed to be a killer good one step.

    NBP Honda Turnaround - 3-Step Correction & CQuartz UK

    This car belongs to a co-worker of mine – her concern was that the paint was very “swirled-up.” Needless to say, you could see the swirls in the shade. Yes, it was that bad. The before and 50/50 shots below sorta tell the story. The car was booked for a correction and coating - and it...

    Flex vs Rupes

    Rupes 21 for the larger sections and 75e for the smaller areas. Almost all of the pro detailers that I am in contact with are using the Rupes and not the Flex. You can cut and finish out better with the Rupes 21 once you learn how to properly use the machine. The forced-rotation advantage of the...

    Best glass coating

    CarPro Forte is still the best one I've used. Easy application, incredible dirt repellency and great beading/sheeting. I applied it on a customer's vehicle and during the one-week follow-up, she made a point to tell me that her windshield was staying noticeably cleaner than before.

    Observations/questions from first customers 2 step

    It appears to me that you performed a one-step correction, not a two-step. I don't know who came up with the idea that applying a sealant or coating is a "step," but it's one of the silliest things I've heard. 8 hours is about what I would expect for this type of work. With some more...

    REVIEW: CarPro Reload 2014 "New & Improved"

    I've had my own share of challenges with Reload. Thanks for your review and comments. For me, temperature has been the main issue. If the product is applied in low temperatures (under 70F), none of the streaking issues will occur.

    Bulletproof coating how bulletproof?

    It's not a product sold by autogeek, so I don't think we're allowed to discuss it.

    2014 Carpro Reload

    I've noticed that the streaking issue is much less prevalent when the ambient temp is less than 80F. If the temperature is higher than that level, the Reload will often bond and streak instantly upon being sprayed - before you even have a chance to spread it. I will try diluting 1:1 when I'm...
