    Mini reviews: 303 Tire and Rubber cleaner, 303 Tire Balm and Gyeon Essence

    I just picked up a couple of bottles. Hoping it’s got a little longevity for customers cars

    First Time Using McKee's 37 Gloss Tire Gel

    I like McKees Gloss Tire Gel too. I was using the previous DP product then switched to this after the changeover and it has been all I use for my customers. Good product!

    25% off Earth day order placed.

    Nice! I got tired of waiting and gave in for one of the 15% sales. You got quite a few “dressing” products there.

    One product, complete interior clean - APC?

    Orange88 is a great APC and has a great price. It will clean wheels and tires well at stronger ratios and still seems safe for interiors at lighter ratios. I can’t remember if it streaks or not without a follow behind wipe. McKees High Intensity APC+ is great for being streak free and doubles...

    I like the Grit Guard with their additional washboard.

    Rupes LHR75 3 Inch Pneumatic Random Orbital Polisher

    You would need a large air compressor to be able to use it continuously. A big stationary shop compressor would be the best. If you get a small compressor you will constantly have to wait for the pressure to build back up. By small I mean one around 12CFM at 90psi. Small for the tool’s...

    Meguiars Car Wash Plus (Mini Review)

    To bad it’s gone. I just used this the other day on an fiberglass RV before polishing. It didn’t really remove any oxidation but it cleaned it up well.

    Cabin air intake during engine detail

    It should not be a problem, they should be designed to drain away a decent amount of water. I would not dump a full 5 gallon bucket straight in them but a hose should be fine. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Your favorite product to use as presoak for rinseless wash?

    ^Yep, D114 is/was just awesome. Great cleaner! I just make a couple of gallons of rinseless then fill my Quazar with it. N-914 is ok but it is not D114

    Need to restock some sealant---Is there any WOWO sealant with 1 year durability?

    I use Opti-Seal and UPGP. I not sure if either will make it a year on their own. I think I’ve read where UPGP got close to that for someone(don’t quote me on that). It does seem to hold up well, but I always end up topping it or hitting it with a wash and wax product.

    Ultima Acrylic WW questions from a newbie

    Their Ultima Paint Guard Plus is also a great product. I would get the car cleaned up and apply the above, or another good sealant, and then maintain it with the Acrylic Wash.

    Glass cleaner

    I agree with Don and I do not use a dedicated glass cleaner. I typically use a rinseless/waterless wash product. Something like Stoner’s Invisible Glass would be fine if you don’t have or use those. Stoner Invisible Glass Pump Spray: Non-aerosol formula cleans automotive glass to crystal...

    Part Time Detailer - Steam Cleaner or Extractor?

    You may just want to start with this. You would be surprised how much difference a good cleaner can make. General APCs have their limits and if they are fairly alkaline they can set some stains. I buy a highly concentrated citrus solvent product from a local supply store that I use for a most...

    Cleaning Headlight Projector Lens Internal Face

    If is it is bad I would bake and remove the lens cover and polish the inside. The lens is most likely polycarbonate, most stopped using glass back in the 90’s. I disassembled a poor retrofited light and sanded and polished the inside. It was kinda a pain, and even if your are really good, you...

    opti seal & cqquartz inquiries on applying over a kind of cheaper/lesser known sealant...

    Opti-Seal is so simple and easy to use. It’s almost fun using it as a drying aid. Ultima Paint Guard Plus is also nice. I have not tried Reload.

    Easiest, fastest and economical method?

    I think your plan sounds fine, but it wouldn’t hurt to clay also. It may marr the paint but if you plan to polish with Speed should clear it up. Opti-Seal is is great. Very easy to use and very little is needed. I’m not sure about Black Wow. I like McKees Plastic Trim Restorer. How long will...

    Disappointing getting shipped old stock

    I looks like the headlight coating is a new product and is not an update of the Headlight Protectant Spray. I don’t see the Headlight Coating for sale at AG, I only see it at the McKees site.

    Trying to decide between Meg's D101 and Optimum Power Clean

    3D’s Orange88 Degreaser is another good one at a good price. I’ve used it inside and out with out problems. I use waterless/rinseless products for all sensitive interior areas though. 3D Orange 88 Citrus Degreaser 128 oz. I also like McKees Hi-Intensity APC for interior cleaning at 10-20:1...
