Hey Mike! I realize this isn't a paint correction question, but I couldn't think of anywhere else to ask :props: I just received my Leatherique kit about 2 minutes ago(literally) and I just wanted to get your take on ways to apply the oils and cleaners. I have a fairly good idea of what the...

Hey Mike!, I have question for you on the WB. What stores are you able to buy this product at? Also Ive read the intstructions that its made for clear coated wheels but not for polished aluminum. Now my Audi has polished aluminum alloy wheels, but I was told and have heard that my wheels are...

Hey guys, just curious on some of the things i should cover up and watch out for when I detail my engine. Do you treat turbo charged engines in a specific way? Also, any quality products for engine cleaning that can break up some nasty, sandy sludge lol? I put a flashlight down in the bay and...

When it comes to the intensity of wheel dressings, whether it be Super Glossy all the way down to a nice matte finish, should the color of the car be considered. In a more simple way of asking, do certain color cars look better with super glossy tires? Do certain color cars look better with a...

Well it makes me sad to think that i might have to buy another bottle of 4star UPP. I've noticed that no matter how long and hard i shake the bottle, i cant get the sealant back its its original consistency or color. Right now the sealent is very watery and the color is not solid white...

Now, this may not be clear coat at all, but i was looking at my younger brothers car and noticed on the insides of the doors, to almost be a film that was all over the door. I could see where the edges ended inside the door, which means its covering the entire door. My question is...

I actually cant believe i had never seen this before! I was just wondering if you had any info or experience with this particular buffer. Thanks for ya help mike

I bought a Makita rotary for an early Christmas present and just looking at it makes me happy. However, Im a little confused on which pads to use with my rotary and also backing plates. I have quite a few CCS pads left over from my PC, all of which are 5.5. Ive heard different things, like...

So I come here today because I just now felt my seats and they feel nasty lol. My question is......... I want to really give me a seats a good clean, but I dont really have any special leather care products around except for Megs Gold Class Leather Cleaner/Conditioner and some old BMW crap...

Alrighty, so i recently got the urge to clean everything under the hood. Even though its a little hard to spray down the entire thing with wash( and im worried ill screw something up), I just decided I would hand clean everything that was noticable. My question is, on my manifold, which is...

Well if price is any indication of the quality results you'll get, why is it that the Flex Dual Action Orbital is so much more expensive that its Lightweight Circular Polisher 3403 and the other high powered Flex rotaries?

Since summer is just about here, i need to start fresh on my cars paint. So the magical question is- What is the best paint cleaner I could use so i have a nice clean canvas to start detailing on! hahah :)

Basically, if you could place scratch x in with other polishes from least aggressive to most aggressive, exactly where would scratch x land. Funny thing is, after a wash, i noticed a little bit of marring and swirls, got a white ccs pad and used scratch x and was actually kinda impressed hahah

Well, i just wanted share my first time experience on the rotary. I will say that the rotary gitters faded once it was actually in my hand. I was using a 3m Grey Waffle Polishing Pad with a simple Nano polish to just get the feel for both. First thing i noticed was how the buffer acted when...

Well first off, I've been off the forum for a month due to a bad laptop malfunction. But now on to my new discoveries Basically, i had washed my car and had some light swirlage and some weird looking streaks where i had dried the car off with a guzzler. I knew that i didnt need anything...

I friend of mine bought one but i have never seen that brand before in my life. Does anyone have the scoop on this thing?

I really just wanted to get a fresh new surface to work with that is completely clean. I guess i could clay bar the car, but i didnt know if a paint cleaner would do a better job. If you do know of some good cleaners, id love to know

Ok, well i usually get these streaks( long lines that look holographic) in my paint after i dry it off with my Waffle Weave Cobra Guzzler. I found a spot on the car and thought about doing a little experiment. Since it was basically streaking/swirling left by the towel, i took out some...

Hey guys, I'm thirsty for a rotary, plan and simple. I sorta wanted to see if there were any detailing videos out there that show you step by step how to use a rotary and basic skills you should master. If anyone knows of a good one, id love to hear about it. Spring Break for most college...

Do any of you guys happen to have any good ways of masking up your front ends on darker colored cars. My front bumper is swarmed with bug chips and tiny little pits that i believe are from interstate driving. Of course, it looks great at 5:30 in the afternoon when it gets to dusk, but when the...
