    Autogard vs Opticoat vs ToughSeal vs Ceramic Pro?

    Not sure if DUB is available over there or not. Likely not since you can't locate it. I'm out of alternatives for you without knowing what brands are available on Aussie websites. Obviously, you can always find alternatives here at Autogeek. I think Carpro Iron x will work too. Not sure of...

    boars hair car washing brush vs microfiber mitt

    There's a big difference between a Boar's hair brush you'd buy and maintain yourself and the one at the coin-op (if they're even real boar's hair at your particular local coin-op) that has who knows what...like tar and grease mixed with all kinds of grit within the bristles. Then again, maybe...

    Autogard vs Opticoat vs ToughSeal vs Ceramic Pro?

    Truer words have never been spoken, and I've seen Bob's ride so I can vouch for him. FK1000P is undoubtedly one of those way more bang for your buck type products. Bob just saved you and many others ~$480. Even a cave man can do it. If you won't OR don't know how to maintain a coating to...

    Got the Hardware but Which Software Now?

    I hope I am misinterpreting what you've stated, but it sounds like you're saying that the OP's choice of products fits his style of car. I'm not trying to put words into your mouth, just trying to read between the lines and perhaps I shouldn't. That Mothers 3step system may not be the best...

    Meguiar's D114 Rinsefree Express Wash Is Discontinued

    So what's your point, Setec? LOL! I have a 1.5 gallon of 901, 4 half gallons of TW Ice soap, 4 half gallon Mothers soap, and at least 12 half gallon bottles of Meg's Gold Class soap that I bought on the dime. Looks like I'm as bas as you when it comes to hoarding. LOL! All for my own...

    4:1 Dilution mark is at different location than other bottle?

    It might depend on how strong the concentrate is from the original gallon containers. A gallon of Hyper Dressing and a gallon of Super Degreaser are probably different strengths inside the original gallons. I can't say for sure, but that seems like it would make sense. Sure for us looking at...

    boars hair car washing brush vs microfiber mitt

    To be fair, when Mike Phillips uses a boars hair brush, isn't he using what he calls his "aggressive" approach to washing since he knows he's going to be compounding and polishing swirls away anyhow? At least that's what I've seen of him. Can't say about his truck because I'm not aware of how...

    Meguiar's D114 Rinsefree Express Wash Is Discontinued

    I wanted to try and locate a couple gallon to purchase today, but I didn't have time to make it happen. I'm going to look in the morning. If anyone has any leads, please pm me, but I'm not paying through the nose for it. I was actually planning on buying some before this announcement, but I...

    Duragloss 501/601 premix

    I don't see why priming the pad with the 4:1 mixture and then continuing to mix on the pad itself would be a problem...then again maybe it would be a problem because 501 is so thin on its own and may be too thin to form a 'whatever' sized dollop on your pad. Bad idea I guess.

    Tail of the Dragon & surrounding roads

    If you're in Pigeon Forge and head out Wears Valley Road to Townsend, TN, which is the back way to Cades Cove, which is a beautiful drive itself...if you take Wears V. Rd. you'll come to an overpass that leads to nowhere...actually it does but the last time I was there it was still closed...but...

    Meguiar's D114 Rinsefree Express Wash Is Discontinued

    Bob, That's a new one on me. I don't get the chance to keep up on this stuff like I was a few years ago. Walnut festival next month, so keep the car show in mind.

    Duragloss 501 and compounding/polishing

    I am familiar with those comments from Mike and that thread, but wasn't thinking about Mike's "wet or heavy" comments when I posted. I was more thinking about more chemical coming into contact with the paint...which is sort of the same thing you mentioned. Just wanted to get richy's comments...

    Duragloss 501/601 premix

    Richy, I still have the bottle you sent to me. Other than nearly getting stuff in my eyes, which was a total surprise, I've had no issues at all...none when I used it then...durability was great...none now with what is still left in that bottle...that's been a couple years ago. It has not...

    Duragloss 501 and compounding/polishing

    Richy, If it's cleaning chemically, then does your amount of product on the pad increase any on a section versus say a cutting polish? I'm wondering if this wouldn't be an instance where more is better...by that I mean a line of product on a section pass instead of pea or dime sized drops. Is...

    Speed Glaze: M80

    Thanks, Guz. I thought it had been discontinued. I thought all the retailers would have sold out by now, but I guess not since I found it above.
