    Pro detailers in eastern Washington?

    Just curious if any of you pros are in my general vicinity should I opt to go that route in the future. If so, I may have some follow up questions that we can take to email or PM. Thanks!

    Liquid WOWA sealant enough protection for Pacific Northwest winter?

    I haven't looked at UPGP. Is it more durable than the Blackfire and Wolfgang options?

    Liquid WOWA sealant enough protection for Pacific Northwest winter?

    I've been a consistent user of Blackfire Wet Diamond and Wolfgang Deep Gloss sealants and have been very happy with the results. I've really been wanting to try one of their liquid variants. The thought of being able to do my entire car in 15 minutes or so sounds great. It's time to prep...

    Road trip kit suggestions

    I have a road trip coming up this summer with the family and really don't want to pack my huge bag with most of my car care supplies in it. I've done that in the past, and it just takes up too much space. For general around town driving, I always have a ziplock bag in the glove box with a...

    Best car scent

    While I can't attest to what may work as far as sprays and such for a customer's vehicle, in my personal vehicle I use a black "Scentportable" vent clip holder from Bath and Body Works. It blends in well to my interior clipped to the far left vent. I dislike many of the refill scents they...

    Thinking about buying a Legacy or Fusion - any thoughts?

    I've been very happy with my 2014 titanium awd Fusion. So happy in fact, that we decided to purchase it this month at the end of our lease. We looked at all the other comparable vehicles before choosing the Fusion. The Legacy's interior felt and looked cheaper, it was noisier inside, the...

    Thanks, we've been really happy with it. Our three year lease just ended and we purchased it earlier this month.

    Thanks Wolfgang!

    Thanks for the kind words! My wife and neighbors may think I'm crazy with all the time I spend taking care of the car, but it's worth it! I may break down this spring and finally buy a polisher to save some time though...

    Thanks Wolfgang!

    Six months since the last detail and sealant coat. Lasted all through winter and still going strong. Just a quick wash this morning, and she looked too good walking out of work to not take a quick picture.

    Question about tire dressing application

    New tires came in yesterday and went on this morning. Problem solved. I had hoped to get another year out of the stock tires, but it's money well spent to get rid of that awful noise. On a side note, Pilot Super Sports are amazing!

    Question about tire dressing application

    I am still running the OEM wheels and tires (19" h-spoke wheels and Continental tires). The vehicle is a 2014 Ford Fusion. This problem didn't show up until about 6 months ago. It's definitely wheel/tire related, as the noise was gone all winter when I was running my winter wheels/tires. I...

    Question about tire dressing application

    Forgot to add that the specific product I've been using for quite some time on these tires is Sonax tire gel.

    Question about tire dressing application

    When applying a tire dressing, is everyone using their applicator to really get the product onto the angled bead portion of the tire next to the rim, or are you just applying product to the main part of the tire's sidewall? I've been using the edge of the applicator to get it down all the way...

    Spotless rinse at car wash

    I live in the pacific northwest and have a snow covered vehicle currently. While I don't particularly want to use the touchless car wash's actual wash products, I've been considering going through and using just the water function to melt off all the snow and ice, followed up by their "spotless...

    Need some suggestions for removing grease

    The tires aren't coming off the rims. My snow tires are mounted on different wheels. These tires stay on these wheels. Would mineral spirits or lacquer thinner be safe for the tires and the painted/clearcoated wheel surfaces?

    Need some suggestions for removing grease

    I absolutely agree with this sentiment, I just have concerns about ruining future relations with them and then having them be less than cooperative with me on future plans I have for the car. I'm also concerned about allowing them to do any more work on the wheels and tires. If I do it, I know...

    Need some suggestions for removing grease

    I'm switching over to my winter wheels/tires on Friday. I'll give the ZEP a shot when I have these wheels off the car. Thanks.
