    Weathertech Floor Mats

    I hesitated in offering my opinion on WeatherTech mats because, from the reviews, everyone has nothing but good things to say. I purchased a set, through here, last winter and, yes they appear well constructed, but I wasn’t impressed at all with the fit. The snow and salt would just melt and run...

    Meguiars UQD - 2 For $12 (Target)

    Meguiars Ultimate Quik Detailer I know there's been some mixed opinions regarding this product, but I've been happy with the results when using it as a final wipe after a wash. I have a black car and unless it's wishful thinking on my part, this final wipe appears to be giving me a dust free...

    Need Winter Tips & Techniques

    As I watched the local news at lunch today and heard the weather forecast for low twenties tomorrow night, I know snow is right around the corner. I’ve read and appreciate all the advice related to winter paint protection (sealers/wax), but I would also be interested in advice relating to...

    Will ARO Remove WAX/Sealer ?

    Thanks for the quick reply Jason ... I was afraid that would be the answer. I've been thinking that I should make some type of curved shield (maybe covered with a MF) that I could hold to minimize over spray (may have to look around my basement/garage to see what I can come up with). Thanks...

    Will ARO Remove WAX/Sealer ?

    I’m planning on washing the car tomorrow and thought I use the Amazing Rolloff, I just received from AG, to thoroughly clean the wheel wells and underside (1:1). Assuming I’ll have some over spray, I was wondering if ARO will remove my wax (Reflections on AIO about two weeks old). Tom

    Hot Garage = Bad Product?

    Muddy, I’m sure someone will jump in with some scientific evidence to support not storing car care products in an extremely hot garage, but from experience I don’t leave much in terms of car supplies or wood working supplies in my garage in the summer (my work shop is in the garage). I have...

    What To Look for When Picking A Detailer

    Guys, Thanks allot for the good advice. I know you’re right about my need to start some type of exercise routine (hear it from my wife all the time). I’ve been working at this sitting in a chair computer job for way too many years and have gotten lazy (along with allot older). As far as my...

    What To Look for When Picking A Detailer

    As I sat back having a beer, last Sunday, after washing and using Klasse AIO for the first time, I came to the conclusion that I’m “not as young as I once was” (Toby Keith ?) and I was tired. Klasse AIO was easy on – easy off and I can see why this is favorably talked about here. My tired...

    Couple Of Newbie Questions On Interior Detailing

    Dan, Thanks for the quick reply. My car isn't new (guess I didn't make that very clear - 2004 Cadillac Seville). When you say to use DP Interior Cleaner (3:1) on everything is that 3 parts cleaner and one part water or the other way ? You mentioned to stay off the glass, when I get some on...

    Couple Of Newbie Questions On Interior Detailing

    I could use a little help/advice from the detailing experts. I really haven’t done anything to my interior since I bought this used car about 3 months ago except the leather seats with DG cleaner and conditioner. I’m planning on doing a thorough job this weekend and could use some advice on...

    Can You Create A Hologram By Hand ?

    Thanks Thejoyofdriving, I’ve been following the UDM reviews vs the PC and maybe I’ll pull the trigger down the road. I just placed my first AG order last Friday and I’ll need to wait a little while before my next purchase (I needed all the basics so it added up pretty fast). Also ordered some...

    Can You Create A Hologram By Hand ?

    Thanks for the quick replies. So the cause is probably related to my not applying or removing one of the products I’ve recently used correctly. This is probably the case with a couple I’ve used recently …. I know I goofed with the AW (applied way too much) and I guess I was expecting the...

    Can You Create A Hologram By Hand ?

    Is it possible to create a hologram by hand polishing ? I just bought this black car (used) and up until last Saturday never noticed a hologram on my passenger door. I’ve been using a number of products over my last two months of ownership (DG111, S100, AW, Reflections Spray, and a couple of...

    Advice On Polish/Glaze Needed

    I want to take advantage of the 4th Of July sale and place my first AG order (don’t know if any of my items are included in this sale, but hopefully I’ll get free shipping) I have a recently purchased 2004 black Caddy, which I’ve been basically maintaining with OTC products over the last...

    Duragloss AquaWax - WOW!

    Thanks Sparkie and others …. Maybe I read more into the product’s instructions and don’t really understand what this product is actually doing. Based on your application advice, I should just spray lightly and use an AW damp MF to spread and then immediately wipe dry with a dry MF. I’m...

    Duragloss AquaWax - WOW!

    AW Application Procedure ? I used AW for the first time, yesterday, immediately after my final rinse. I didn’t know the exact procedure, so I’ve been interested in the comments in this thread. I think I definitely used too much, if we’re talking about one spray a panel. I guess from reading the...

    Did I Do Something Wrong ?

    As I continue to put together my AG shopping list, I decided to wash and wax my new (used) 2004 black Seville this past weekend with OTC products. I had washed (DG 901) and waxed (DG 111) about two weeks ago, but this time I thought I’d also try some clay (Mothers) and cleanser (S100 Shine...
