    Why certain threads are deleted, while others left up?

    I also read your post/review from a week or two ago. I also read for the first time FAQ 2nd paragraph. I now know why your post was deleted. I would look for a different site that has more relaxed rules if it bothers you that much. Autopia is a good choice as mentioned above. But, there are...

    Towel management (how OCD are you?)

    RW/Hose - I prefer sponges Everything else gets MF but at different gsm, blend, thickness, softness, mfg, price...depending on the task. WaffleW sometimes for drying.

    Order of prep before CQuartz UK

    The 1 step I would add is after IRON-X (S2), put on a plastic baggie on your hand and feel for any other contaminants even though you clay'd 1 month ago. If some panels feel smooth as glass you are good to Machine Polish. If some panels feel gritty just clay it again.

    Cobra bone wash sponge

    I've been using it for years with the 1-2BM and RW's. Works well due to its mf over sponge construction. You do have to machine wash it when done using a mf detergent to get it clean if soiled. AG has been selling the bone for a long, long time.

    Duragloss Environshield Squeaky Clean question

    DG SQC is a very good paint cleaner. I would have done it as step 3, i.e. clean the paint before correcting it. Do 1 pass. If pad is clean you are done. If pad shows dirt change to a clean pad and do a 2nd pass with SQC to show that all oxidation has been removed.

    Menzerna / Rupes Polishes

    Would not surprise me. Duragloss and Zaino comes to mind. P21S and S100 is another. Some MF towels also look/feel/behave alike. I asked this similar type question months ago on AG or Autopia between Menzerna and Scholl's. I was told that they are both German and perform alike. Not saying that...

    Do your neighbors think you're crazy?

    Don't get any comments because I have an attached garage, a new steel-type garage door with no windows and when fully closed they don't even hear my DA running nor my RW splashing around.

    I've tried and still use all 3 for specific tasks: ONR (as a RW), D114 (as a RW), UWW+ (as a WW). Never used DG.

    Will Einszett cockpit cleaner remove Ultima Interior Guard?

    Maybe try a 10-15 percent IPA solution. I know gtechniq recommends IPA prior to a #4 (trim) or #5 (alloy) coating.

    DP Tire Coating vs Tuf Shine Tire Clearcoat

    Been using TS Tire Cleaner and Clearcoat for 2 years now. Tuf Shine recommends mild soap and water only (after clearcoat has been done). I've used various auto washes like P21S, Meg #00, Griots, D114 RW, Dawn at mild dilution ratios with no issues. A terrific product to say the least. But, every...

    Credit card fees.... who's charging them?

    I was always under the impression that the fee was buried in the cost of the product. Maybe I'm wrong.

    DP Coating Prep Polish Question

    DG SQC is the one you need to wait on before removing. DP CPP setups quickly so I usually do 1/2 or 1/3 on the larger panels.

    Tire Coating and New Tires

    Maybe its the nature of the tire. I bought 2 Bridgestone tires last OCT and cleaned them with Tuff Shine. 3 cleanings later and they were running white foam. Coated them with TS and they lasted 3 months thru the brutal winter in NE. Yep, tires are expensive. $325 for 2 16" tires installed and...

    Is Meguiars D114 Rinse Free Express Wash being discontinued?

    I called Meguiar's USA in CA today and the TS person looked at his discontinued product paperwork and he told me that D114 was not on the sheet. So then I asked him why is D114 not offerrered in smaller sizes and was told that its primarily a pro-only product, meant for body and detail shops. I...

    Has Turtle Wax stopped making rinse free wash and wax?

    1. What's the D114 equivalent to the gtechniq panel wipe? A very strong dilution? 2. Does Meguiar's approve of it?
