    Perhaps those that are marring the paint with their towels need better towels.

    Questions about cleaning engine compartment after power steering leak

    Think if I were faced with that problem I would do the following. Get yourself a bottle of Totally Awesome cleaner which is available for as little a $1.00 at Dollar General, Doller Tree, Walmart, etc. Put a spray head on it and liberally apply it to all areas that were fouled with power...

    what's the last car care/detailing video you've just watched?

    The Flex Wax was only the best in one category and not the best detail spray. I believe it was the best in gloss. The product that was I believe was considered his top pick was Feynlab Hybrid Ceramic Detailer. Calling the products a wax, a detailer or a sealer is most likely splitting hairs as...

    ADS...The Story!

    DFB, There is no doubt that hyping many products or hyping ones work skills is commonplace and every company hypes their reputation. However the Car Care Products industry has a long history of over hyping their products. It's not exclusive to ADS or any other products manufacturer. Just look at...

    ADS...The Story!

    Guz, The intention of my inquiry was to see if Amplify could be diluted and then applied to a dry panel after drying the paint via a drying towel. My thinking was if purchased by the gallon and then being capable of being diluted it would make the product more cost friendly which it could stand...

    What did you do today, in regards to detailing?

    Well it is simple to use. This is only second time I used it. The other was on my 21 Mustang GT and I traded that in on the new Tacoma. The Mustang was a garage Queen so not much of a test for durability. It has very good reviews. However as a spray sealant I wouldn't expect it to be as durable...

    ADS...The Story!

    I have never tried any ADS products. From what I've watched and read many of their products perform well and some are just mediocre. But I consider ADS to be boutique products and at the upper end of price/value market. There are certainly products that perform similarly that are much less...

    what's the last car care/detailing video you've just watched?

    Well that video should get one thinking. Lots of common sense. Agree that if using a product for the first time one should get the smallest size available. If it's everything you dreamed of them maybe move to the quart or gallon size.

    What did you do today, in regards to detailing?

    No more underground storage needed. Four winters in the mine for the Mustang. That set up is pretty nice. It's only $80.00 per month and it temperature and humidity controlled. Worked great for my needs. I've still got the Chevelle. That's not going anywhere. The Mustang was a very nice/fun...

    Slickest Traditional Bucket Wash and "Wax" Car Wash Soap

    I think many car soaps are naturally slick when using. If one tries to find a soap that is slick and leaves good protection behind then they are setting themselves up for disappointment. Think you will find a lot of products that don't clean well and don't protect well. The spray on products...

    How would you Dry at a car wash / as an apartment dweller?

    It produces 90 decibels. One nice thing about the Ryobi. You can hold the Ryobi in one hand and a drying towel in the other. Can't do that with the Ego.

    How would you Dry at a car wash / as an apartment dweller?

    I don't use the same drying towel on my wheels that I use on my paint so if it brushes the ground it's no bid deal. They are washed after every use.

    My go to is TEC 582. Does a great job, is simple to use and is very economical. Currently on Amazon it $40.99 per gallon. I dilute it 1:1 with distilled water. Including the cost of the water it breaks down to 17 cents per ounce. I use it liberally and usually use about 8 ounces of the 1:1 on my...

    How would you Dry at a car wash / as an apartment dweller?

    I have two battery powered blowers that I only use for detailing. When I do a foam/bucket wash and am rinsing with a hose I use my full size Ego as there is a lot of water that needs removed before I use my drying towels. However when I do a rinseless wash I can use my compact Ryobi blower...

    What Products For Tonneau Cover

    Some years ago had a Pace Edward's roll top cover on my truck. At the time I exclusively used Aerospace 303 on it and was kind of disappointed in the results. Anybody ever tried the Duragloss "301" product below...
