    What is a Good Paint Cleaner?

    I am looking for a product to clean off small areas on my vehicle as they appear. I washed and waxed my new 2010 GMC Savana for the first time yesterday and while waxing I noticed some black gunk on the paint behind the tire well. The dealership put some crap on the tires that flew all over...

    What type of mit should I get for washing my car?

    Hang the mitt outside in the breeze. It will dry faster. I just bought the Mother's lambswool wash mitt. I will try it out tomorrow am. It looks very nice and well made. I will use it on select areas of my vehicle and I have Target micro fiber wash mitts also.

    What is the Best way to remove BUGS?

    I'm going to a coin wash tomorrow and spraying them off as best I can and then going over it with the wash mitt. Hopefully that will be enough. And good sponges to remove bugs or other type of product?

    What is the Best way to remove BUGS?

    My front end is covered with bugs after a long trip. What is the best way to clean them off? Is a Micro fiber wash mitt in some Griot's wash soap enough to get it clean?

    What is a GOOD Inexpensive Car Wash Soap/Shampoo

    I am considering purchasing Griot's car wash for my new 2010 but it is so damn expensive. What is a good inexpensive car wash/shampoo that doesn't remove the wax? Anything good that I can get over the counter like Mequire's or something I can find in Walmart or an auto parts store?

    Armorall

    That's how I always felt about AA. I never got any cracks in my dash. I used it in the 80's on my vehicles and never had a problem with dash cracks. I do believe the dashes back in the 70's and 60's where made with thinner harder vinyl plastic which was prone to cracking. I have no exact...

    Armorall

    Does anyone think there was ever any truth to the widespread belief that it would crack your dash?

    Armorall

    I thought I was but Perhaps I wasn't clear. I wasn't asking about the myriad of products they now offer like their tire gel etc. I was referring to the original and still available Armorall spray. Armor All® - Product Detail Do people like it now and use it? Or does it still have a bad rap...

    Armorall

    What is the consensus on it? I always felt it got a bad rap because when it came out in what the 70's? that the cracking of dashes was caused by crappy 70's plastic and not the use of Armorall which got blamed for it. My parents never used Armorall and all our dashes cracked on all our...

    Tire Cleaners?

    I'll pass on anything that I have to be careful with, I have brand new chrome wheels. The tires are new so they won't need much strong cleaning yet. I'll try the soap and water and then 303 I should be ok for now. I think I will get whatever I find in the store when I need a good cleaning of...

    Tire Cleaners?

    What is a good one? What are you using? I want to clean new tires and then treat them with 303 protectant. They are new but I want to clean them real good first. Should I just scrub with Griot's car wash shampoo or should I hit them with a tire/rubber cleaner like Mother's or something similar...

    New Car

    You have hard water spots. Get a water softener. Maybe some product like a car shampoo that you can mix into a wash bucket that reduces hard water spots. Try Griot's car wash it supposed to be the best. I will order it soon and try it myself.

    Klass AIO vs Collinite 845 vs FK1000P

    I heard Klasse AIO goes on/off esy but the Sealant Glaze can be a little tough getting off especially if you apply too much. Finish Kare 1000p is supposed to be good long lasting stuff too.

    Klass AIO vs Collinite 845 vs FK1000P

    Do you have to put the 845 on every month in the winter in PA to maintain paint protection? I can do a pre-winter detail in late fall and wash the vehicle regularly in winter but I can't do monthly waxing....not gonna happen.

    Klass AIO vs Collinite 845 vs FK1000P

    I thought I was going with the Klasse twins for the body and FK1000P for the roof but now I am wavering and thinking about just going with the 845 for the entire vehicle.

    Removing Emblems??? and detailing mystic paint!!

    I just had a flex fuel decal removed by an autobody shop and they left 3 little chips in the paint! I should have done it myself. I have been told to use some monofilament fishing line like 20 pound test and just get it underneath the decal and saw back and forth with the fishing line. Then you...
