    Hard Water

    Hello All – it’s been a very long time since I’ve posted, but I’ve recently acquired a new Tahoe (black), and this new acquisition has posed new obstacles in my detailing regime.

    Glaze with Sealant

    I've been considering a glaze the next time I polish my car, more specifically Poorboys Black Hole Show Glaze for Dark Vehicles. I also have Wolfgang Deep Gloss Paint Sealant 3.0, and was wondering how a glaze would affect the paint sealant's durability. As I understand, the glaze goes on...

    Wolfgang 3.0 Paint Sealant Question

    I washed my car recently having applied Wolfgang 3.0 Paint Sealant last week. I blew it dry with my leaf blower (one of the best tips I’ve read on this forum), and after doing so, noticed that the finish wasn’t near as slick as after I applied the sealant. Not that it matters now, but it...

OK, I’ll admit it; I obsess about it...

    Polymers – Fluff vs. Substance

    Ok, this may be a fairly “freshman” question (don’t you hate disclaimers before the question is even asked?), but how exactly do polymers affect the quality of a product? I’ve been reading product descriptions like “German Super Polymers”, “crystalline polymers”, “cutting edge polymers”...

    Looking for Right Combo of Products

    Hello All - I've recently made the transition to detailing with a machine (Flex XC3401) opposed to by hand, and the products I have acquired aren't necessarily producing the results I had expected. By hand, I would swear by Meguiar's 3 step Deep Crystal (Cleaner, Polish, Wax), but with the...
