I'm going to try a coating and wanted to know if any of them are more protective of toweling marks than the other. AG has the Opti-coat and CQuartz products and I am aware of a couple of other products on the market. Would you please share your experience with the available options, as I...

Hi Guys, I picked up a 2011 alpine white 528i with oyster interior on Thursday. I already got grease on the driver's seat which I removed with Leatherique Pristine Clean. What are your favorites for protecting near white leather from the coming coffee, ink, lipstick, food and occasional...

We finally have a nice warm day (mid-70's) to apply Leatherique Leather Rejuvenator. I applied it to the front and rear seats with extra applied to the seams. I can see where the leather dye has been worn, so the next step will be a redye job in two or three areas. I was told that a white...

I dropped three foam pads on Sunday and now I'm down to one small yellow foam application pad (I think Pinnacle), one Megs yellow foam application pad and one Wolfgang orange foam application pad. I have been experimenting with lots of new products and I need to order some more application pads...

I decided to prep my paint today with UPPP in preparation of using UPGP for the first time. I didn't work anything like I expected. I tried applying UPPP to the hood first with both a tangerine HT pad and a flat white pad with a PCXP. Maybe I used too much? Maybe I didn't work it long enough...

Mark, Please clean out some old PMs. :cool:

What is your favorite method to remove polish and wax stains on black, pebble texture plastic trim?

I just ordered the Aquapel kit and probably should clay and perhaps polish the glass before application. I probably should have ordered the DP glass restorer but didn't. I have clay and a number of polishes and pads (M105, Megs UC, Opt Compound II, Opt Hyper Spray Compound, Opt Hyper Spray...

Introduction: I have been wanting to try Optimum’s Car Wash after being introduced to their products about 12 months ago. I have used a number of their products and have been impressed more times than not. I was lucky that Optimum chose to send me a bottle of Optimum Car Wash to try. Thank...

I was reviewing the AG interior cleaning how-to's and noted that silicone-based interior dressings should be avoided as they may cause longer term problems such as yellowing. So what interior products on the market are silicone-based including both AG and non-AG available dressings?

I first would like to thank Max, Meghan and the rest of the AG staff that make this forum experience so wonderful. I am the blessed person that won the signed gift box and Wolfgang Fuzion Wax from the SEMA show. I already use Fuzion on my personal cars, so getting more of the wax is awesome...

I'm interested in an inexpensive steam cleaner for door jambs, tires, wheels, engine compartments and general around the house use. I will also experiment with carpets and fabric upholstry, as I can't justify an extractor as a hobbiest. I watched a recent video using a Wagner Steam Cleaner (I...

I've been fortunate to try several products recently provided by friends. Mark, thank you again for the 901 sample. Today, I first washed my Artic White '99 BMW 528iT with Duragloss 901 then dried the car using AquaWax spray wax as a quick detailer drying agent. I used ~3 oz of 901 with...

I was looking at my 1/2 full, XMI pad conditioner bottle over the weekend and it has stringy blackish growth inside the bottle. I'm assuming it's some type of fungus. Is this typical and how does it affect product performance. Feed back please Thanks!

I have a 10 month old PCXP and the metal body of the circular random orbiter section seems to get quite hot. While the pad doesn't necessarily feel hot at the foam/paint interface, the backing plate can get very warm. I try to touch the paint from time to time to make sure that it doesn't get...

My buddy's white Honda needs a clay, polish and wax. Do you know if the 93's have CC or single stage paint? Paint seems original and needs some TLC. Thanks!

I picked up the 4oz sample of Optimum Protection Plus a few weeks back. I was pretty excited to try it as I like most of the OPT products that I've used so far. The sample came with a flip top bottle instead of the sprayer bottle. It's a white lotion that reminds me of Opti-Bond. I...

We have a 99 5 series with tan interior. The driver's seat has a worn patch on the left driver's side bolster that I want to get restained/repaired. I have never tried repairing/restaining leather so I'm not sure where to start. Any recommendations for a firm in the Thousand Oaks/Westlake...

A little help please. I need a new spoke brush. I have BMW BBS style spoke wheels which are a pain to clean. I want to clean the spokes and the interior rim at the same time but I don't want to damage them, rotors or calipers. I can no longer source the natural Tampico spoke brushes with a...

I wanted to thank those of you that recommended that I try Fuzion. I finally stripped the WGDGPS and Opt Car Wax, clayed and applied Fuzion to our artic white BMW. What a terrific finish. Glossy, reflective and liquid. The finish seems to get more liquid after a couple of hours. I decided...
