Matt, The same person posted over on Green Hybrid. I asked them the same question and they never have answered. It was the first post for this person on both forums.

TSI, He was asking about applying a wax, not a polish.

Sqeeky, The wax should lube the pad well enough without a spritz. If you want to however, any QD would work. Polishes however do need a little help at the start....

Water with a little soap

Funny you should ask. Tried this last night after buying a bottle. It seemed to work OK using the directions on the bottle (2 OZ for a full load). The wife DID make me run a rinse cycle after though to make sure all of my "silly detergent" was out of "her" washer. As long as you do not use it...

Once you are setup, it should take anywhere from 30 minutes (easy) to an hour (medium) up to an hour and a half (bad news) for the pair. Just remember to do both at the same time. Don't finish one and stop to admire the good job you did. Sand both with one grit, change grits, sand both, polish...

Jay, I wet sand by hand only. Depending on how bad the plastic is, I start with 600 or 800 grit paper. Going from there to 1000, 1200, 1500 and maybe 2000 (depending on the plastic). Make sure that each grade of paper is done 90 degrees to the last grade. IE 800 grit left to right, 1000 grit up...

Just a guess, a light meter from a photography store? You will need to have the vehicle in a dark garage without any other ambient light sources. You can then measure the light output at a given distance (10 feet?) in different areas of the light beam. Compare to a new or refinished light and...

PB's Super Slick and Suds or Meg's Gold Class if I happen to run out.

tnek, It's just a personal choice about whether to use the sealer or not. I do because I like the warmth and depth of a good carnauba layered over the sealant. Other opinions are sealant only or carnauba only. Congrats on the new car. Don't forget Jimmie's post above. You would be surprised...

6 volts are for golf carts. In my case, gun carts as I shoot sporting clays....:)

Boy oh boy.... I learn something new here each day. All this time I thought the 50/50 rubdown was a double shot each of branchwater and a good scotch topped off with a Thai massage AFTER the detail was done.

I'll eat almost anything. My favorite starter is fried baby squid, I like most fish but believe it or not, I like Nasi Goreng more than anything (leave off the fried egg though). Chicken is fair game but other food depends on who I am with and whether we were eating at a Hindi, Muslim or...

Welcome aja, Where in Indonesia are you located? Used to have an office near Slipi in Jakarta and enjoyed my trips there (especially the food).

Supercharged, While I agree with quite a few of your opinions, your delivery MIGHT have seemed a little harsh to most. This is the "off topic" section of the forum and fair game for anything but I know that I would appreciate it if your responses were above the belt and civil. Most of the...

Give what you have a try. You might be VERY surprised at the results. I use Natty's (white, blue and red), have used SS II (just ordered some more last week) and will be trying Souv next week when the next order comes in. I like (and use) a lot of PB products and like (and use) Pinnacle, WG and...

nrengle, No problem here, even though all of my family is from the TN,GA,AL corner of the world, I was born at Wright-Patt AFB near Dayton (Dad was a lifer). Others may have differing viewpoints from yours but you should never forget those that have gone before and those still serving to...

nrengle, As a Georgia "redneck", I think that Kay Hutchinson of Texas might have been a better choice but Condie Rice would have been my pick. She has too much baggage now after being with GB this long but I still like her views on the world. By the way, I am an over 50, life member of the...

To late.... I bought those last week. I decided to get some Menz instead. I swear between the wife, two daughters and Megan, women will be my downfall into ruination.....
