    I just bought a red 1986 300zx. The car is in excellent shape but the paint is very chalky/oxidized. I'm looking for a good pricess to use to revive the paint. Maybe something like PowerFinish (Menz 203) followed up by Meguiars #7 to restore oils to the paint? Anyone know a good process to...

    AG and Meguiars Wheel Brightener Plug

    Hey guys, Here is a link to a sportbike forum I frequent, I have a 2008 Suzuki GSXR 600.

It's not the monster many...

    Favorite Waxes for Each Color

    I was wondering what everybody's favorite LSP was for specific paint colors. What is your favorite LSP for white, black, silver, red, royal blue, yellow, etc. Does metallic flake in the paint change your choice of LSP as well and if so, would you choose a different LSP for say a blue car with...

    Megs Ultimate Quik Wax/Detailer vs. UPGP

    I was wondering if anyone has tried both the new Meguiars Quik Wax or Ultimate Quik Detailer and Ultima Paint Guard Plus. I have personally used the UQD and think it is a great product as it beads up after numerous washes and looks brilliant. I have not tried UPGP, but the is a large...

There are also...

    APC for interior cleaning

    I've been using the DP interior cleaner for quite a while now. I recently ran out and decided to dilute some Megs APC+ to 10:1 and it worked very well. By having the ability to dilute the Megs APC+ to 10:1, the DP interior cleaner would cost $400 for the same amount of cleaner, as it costs...

    The Forgotten Wash

    While the washing step of a detail is by far the most mundane step in the detailing process, it is undoubtedly the most important step. There is certainly more glamour in a thread about the best products to use for swirl removal or the best LSP, but I have not seen a good thread about the best...

    Wool Pads?

    When would a wool pad be used in the paint correction process? Does a wool pad have more cut than the yellow CCS pad? I'm just trying to figure out where a wool pad would come in handy.
