Ordered several items from AG using the 20% off VIP and free shipping for Mike P's anni. AG, of course, shipped promptly the next day - July 20. Thought I would have the package by the following Monday. When it didn't arrive I checked the UPS site with the tracking number. By the tracking...

My nephew and I will be doing his grandmother's white 99 Volvo coupe - not sure of the model. I haven't seen the paint, but my nephew's got an OK eye from doing this with me and he notes the paint is not too bad - not too badly swirled or scratched, mostly hazed and just rather dull and...

Hey Bro, Tried to PM bu your mailbox is full. Applicator on its way today. Later dude.

Avi, I understand the issues with CQ and the polymers in rinseless washes. My issue is that rinseless washing is so much faster and less bother than a wash and rinse with regular car shampoo, particularly since I have very hard water. So, can you come up with recommends on how to do a...

Mike, My current process is to use eitiher Meg's UC or WG TSR (depending on how bad the car is hairlined and scuffed) on an orange LC flat pad and then follow with FG on a white pad. Would I get more gloss if I came back with FG a second time on a grey or blue pad? Or do I need to go to 85RD...

Avi, Love the CQ, the shine is gorgeous and the car is so slick it literally repels dirt. All I need to do is a quick wipe with a QD - I use diluted Detailer's Pride No Rinse Car Wash. I'll be doing a full wash this weekend with the DP No Rinse. Will that interfere with the ReLoad? Should I...

Thanks to all who said a prayer. The tumor is a benign cyst that became heavily infected - that explains the wacked enzymes and jaudice. He's still pretty sick on heavy anitbiotics. Thanks again for all your thoughts and prayers.

The kid is 20 yrs old and it looks like he has liver cancer. We're waiting the biopsy results. He's an athlete with a full academic scholarship and pre-acceptance to Yale, Dickinson and Cornell law schools. Thanks for your thoughts.

I polished ad CQ'ed my wife's 2011 Obsidian Black ES350 over the Memeorial Day weekend. It turned out rather nice. Process was wash with Dawn, 2 stage polish with Wolfgang twins (TSR/orange pad, FG/white pad), wash with APC+ 20:1, wipe with distilled water, CQuartz except for the clear bra which...

I did my wife's Lexus over Memorial Day with CQuartz. As Avi suggested, I checked compatibility by putting some CQ on an inconspicuous area of the film (underside of passenger mirror). The CQ did cloud the XPel film so I did not CQ that - it got a coat of Menz Powerlock. Just letting all know...

Like some others here, I've become a big fan of No Rinse car washing. Not only does it eliminate water spotting, but it takes less time and uses far less water. Saturday I was getting ready to do the cars and I looked over and saw the gallon jugs of dehumidifier water my wife collects for...

Hey Avi, any issues with this? My wife's Lexus has a partial hood and fender clear bra.

I realize these haven't been available to the masses for all that long, but I'm looking for an easy to maintain, fairly glossy coating for my nephew's car. He's a law student and doesn't have the time like we do. Sooooo.... Which of these is the easiest to maintain? Which is the glossiest?

My nephew (acutally my grand-nephew, but that makes me feel really old) stopped over yesterday and helped us out around the yard. This kid (21) is a great kid - 3.97 honors student in pre-law, puts himself thru college (with a little help from us) has a full-time job where he was promoted to...

Cee Dog, Thanks again for recommending UTTG. That stuff is amazing. Worked EXACTLY the way you said it would. And I only used DROPS of the product, just like you said. I did the black trim and under the hood on my RAV4. I don't think it looked that good brand new! I ran out of time last...

Wolfgang Twins On the recommend of several forum members, I bought the Wolfgang "Twins" - Total Swirl Remover and Finishing Glaze. Got them on BOGO a few weeks ago. The weather in PA finally cleared enough yesterday to try them out on my metallic charcoal grey 2008 RAV4. The products were...

Mike P, Just wanted to say thanks for all the effort you put into your articles and videos. I polished the RAV4 yesterday and like the title says, your instructions were perfect. I used WG TSR, then WG FG, then Menz Powerlock. Took me about half the car with the TSR to really get the...

I used the AG water softener for the first last nite. Worked quite well, and this is on a dark charcoal grey RAV4. Softened enough that I didn't have the spotting problem I usually have. The water didn't have the "greasy" feel of totally soft water, but then this is just a small ion exchange...

We actually had some decent weather in PA yesterday so I played hooky. First I played 9 holes. After dinner I still felt great so I washed and clayed my RAV4 and then used the PC to put on some 845. It took me about 10 min to get the hang of the right pressure. Wax went on beautifully. It's...

I saw another yet another post asking which products are the most durable for use on a daily driver. As a newb, I had to do a lot of searches to find this info for various products (not complaining, just saying). So, how 'bout you experienced guys chime in on one thread with the most durable...
