They appear to be your average shoe scuff marks. I used power clean 3:1, let it soak a bit then wiped with mf. They lightened. Then i tried it at full strength and agitated with a bristle brush. The marks will not come out. Any ideas?

Dilemma- 2 car garage, 3 car family So I own a Porsche and a Lexus GS. My wife has a new Camry. Typically the Porsche shares the garage with the Cam as the lil lady will not be scrapping windows in the morning. But lately, I'm getting tired of scrapping windows and sitting in an ice cold...

Just curious. In most professions a certain percentage of the work is due to the skill of the individual and another is due to the tool being used. i.e. A good race car drivers car may account for 35% while his ability to control it at high speeds may be the other 65% that wins him the race...

The problem area is my mattress. We recently purchased a king sized pillow top mattress for my back. It was a higher end mattress. (If you've been mattress shopping in the past 3 years you know how over priced these things are). The other day our daughter wasn't feeling well. Stomach problems...

A good friend of mine just totaled his car (he was not hurt). Fell asleep behind the wheel while driving home from work after 8:00PM. Guard rail saved him from going completely off the road but did an unbelievable amount of damage to his car. I know that feeling all too well. You pull a long...

I've read the write up under Auto Paint Glazes but still need a little clarification. I'm ordering a few products now that will make my shine pop and was interested in using/owning a glaze, I've never used one. But after reading on them it appears that a good sealant followed by a wax...

I'm looking to get a good shampoo with an added wax agent . I have used one in the past (it was a friends) and was amazed at the results. I cant recall the brand. I read a recent post here today and it re-sparked my interest in this 2 in one item. So what have you tried and liked?

Before :Picture:- My gawd, what a dump! I’ll be using a light colored paint on the walls and would like to add a bit of contrast where the wall bumps out. I could use some suggestions on a color that pops. Not sure what to do with the floor but I’m...

Perhaps this detailing business isn't for me. It takes me days to get a finished paint correction that I'm proud of. I have tried corrections using the same stuff you guys use and following the videos to a "T". The car looks better but it never looks like I want it. Its never "video worthy"...

Looking to buy a small electric power washer. I'll primarily use this for washing cars. But I‘d like to get more use out of it as well. Such as spraying the house siding and blasting the driveway clean from time to time. I was looking at one that had 1600 PSI. Would this do the trick?

2002 BMW 330I While detailing the car I got some water in my trunk carpet. I noticed it was wet so I left the trunk up so it could air dry. When I was done it felt dry so I closed the trunk. 5 days later I reopen the trunk to a strong mildew smell. I have now removed the reversible trunk...

I have read all the scare post about burning through paint and decided to head to the junk yard and grab a panel to practice on. To my surprise they had the same make and model porches as mine. I stripped off the sunroof for my practice panel. Once home I taped it off into sections and ran the...

I plan on using my CP for some stubborn water damage. Using compound with my GG and a orange pad on speed 6 just isn't getting them out. I would like to "see" a how to rather then read one as the movement and technique is easier understood.
