    Lets talk about Iron Removers

    I, like most others appreciate an iron remover. I use it as a heavy wheel cleaner as well as a decontamination for paint. And at this point i don't like being without it. Problem is...it's not cheap. IronX Ferrex Sonax are the options on here that i know of. The issue is they are all...

    What is the point of a ceramic coating if you have to maintain it?

    I am considering usong cquartz on my vehicles but I'm sort of scratching my head with it. I see the entire point of coating a car to protect it from the elements like a long term sealant or wax. So... You spend the money. Do the prep. Coat the car. And for 1.5-2 years.... Other than washing...

    Looking for the longest lasting sealant. Not necessarily the best look

    Looking for a High Gloss Tire Shine that doesn't sling.

    I have Opti-Bond but i'd like something with more shine. I tried a store bought Armor All High Shine but it literally dries off the tire in 10 minutes. I know most people like a flat or subtle tire shine....and i have that covered. But here and there i like something louder on the tires...

    What's the latest/greatest sealants out there?

    Last year I use a lot of OCW, UPGP, and Hydroseal. I don't keep up with autogeek like I used to and all the new products out there. What's the hotness in long term sealants these days? Thanks in advance.

    Forum Question. Is there a "Classifieds" section where we can sell/trade products to other members?

    I ask because i have a few pieces of equipment that i don't use that i'd like to sell...but i don't want to break any rules...but i figure this is a good place for people to do so even if members swap products and/or sell stuff they find they aren't using. Thanks.
