I attempted a search but to no avail, so..... What are the do's and don’ts of matte finishes? Its a stock paint from the 2011 Mercedes designo magno, so I asked the Mercedes dealer but they scratched their heads while saying the following, "Go to AutoZone or peep boys and see what they...

I did a search, but to no avail, so...... I’m a big fan of the Meguiars #26 Hi-Tech Yellow wax as my last step process. I noticed that the Meguiars #26 Hi-Tech Yellow comes in both paste and the liquid. I’m currently using the liquid on a black car, so what is the advantage of paste vs. the...

I ran a search on “soft water”, but to no avail, so……….. We have a complete soft water setup in our home, but regardless of that I still wash my cars in the shade in the early AM away from the sun and I dry them with an electric leaf blower while blowing the water downward toward the ground...

This is a spin off from another thread that lead into a discussion about 3M. 3M will be “upgrading their line of -Perfect It- products while discontinuing another one which is my favorite. I’ve been using the 1qts pt num 06060 Extra Cut 1200 Grit Compound, 06064 Swirl Mark Remover & 06068...
