    Mother's crummy microfiber towel w/clay kit

    Out of curiosity I got the kit a few weeks back from the @m@zon to my disappointment one the clays came scrambled, used and packed in the ziplock bag. I know only the one company produces the clay for Mothers and others but clay bar is like kid's dough comparing to Megs and Riccardo. The...

    Glass coating fill capability?

    Upsetting part my car has 8k on ODO, and changing WS will cost about $1k. It has a few sensors which have to be unglued and glued back it I doubt someone will do it neatly and properly. If I had access to electric outlet I would definitely try to improve damage with the proper tools.

    Glass coating fill capability?

    I also learned not to traditionally clay bar crated windshield but use the clay alternative. The clay particles can get in the the craters and very hard to get out. They have grey or black clays indeed but an alternative works better and doesn't clog the chips.

    Glass coating fill capability?

    The toothpaste process is more like smoothing sharpness of the tiny craters make them less visible. Remember everything we see in this world IS reflection of the light. In this process if we look under the microscope the craters have a sharp surface, which makes them very visible when sun hits...

    Spray bottles & waterless wash

    I use a 1.5 litter pressure sprayer not sold on AG. I dilute D114 in a gallon container and adding solution as needed to pressure sprayer during the wash. The good part is an unused liquid I can store for later wash. It is very economical, I use a gallon for exterior including wheels washing my...

    Natty Red or Blue?

    I used it on red tri coat it didn't cover or clean anything. My wife scratched brand new microwave with dish sponge, top and sides are grey metallic w/o clear coat. I was able to improve 90% of appearance w/ Black Hole Glaze. What is the point having different color palette for their waxes?

    Natty Red or Blue?

    I have Black Hole glaze and it didn't work at all as it claims to be. I read Natty red is pretty wax with little longevity. Does it at least covers up light marring on red car?

    Another vote for FlyBy30 for 11 months it was going strong then it started degrading and water droplets and water from windshield wipers started etching into the glass, how much better FORTE is?

    Menzerna Powerlock Review (and 5 months after)

    How much better? I used initially 105/601 duragloss, my red soul turned to a pinkish tomato. When I switched to PL I got totally different result which I was trying to achieve long time ago, a saturated bloody deep wet red, so, I cannot imagine how much better WGDGPS would look like. I would...

    Glass coating fill capability?

    I was asking the same question here, but got the same response. With my windshield it virtually impossible to replace with perfection, I have all possible and impossible sensors attached to it. Since car is only 7k miles and the WS looks not acceptable for my standards I came up to this...

    Dent w/ paint scrape on side panel

    Grr, these stories always tickle me. I had 3 dents like these on my previous brand NEW car. After PDR I followed up with DR.Color Chip alternative and worked out almost perfect. On my current NEW car it is started to appear slowly, I got 4 small ones in period of 15 months :(.
