I saw several videos where they used Meguiar’s Wheel Brightener diluted 50/50 with water to remove stubborn water and bird dropping spots. I’m looking for the consumer equivalent since I can’t find the small qty I need locally. I have a black 96 SVT Cobra Mustang with otherwise excellent...

After a wash, clay, wash, Ultimate Polish, some scratch correction, and an rinseless wipedown I put down a coating of UPGP. Then reading about layering it, I laid down 2 more coats, 3 on the hood and front quarters. Once this all cures I'd like to do a final buffing or jeweling to a high...

It's too late on a Friday to call Ultima. How long must I wait between coats of UPGP or to add another LSP? Thank you in advance, Dave Sent from my iPhone using Autogeekonline mobile app

I'm a somewhat experienced hobbyist detailer for my own vehicles. I'm prepping my black 96 SVT Cobra mustang for Carlisle PA Ford show Saturday. Today I stripped off old product with a mix of Meguiar's Gold car wash & small amount of Dawn. 2 buckets & mitt. Followed with ONR Wipe down. I...

We lost our car in a hail storm. We stumbled upon what could be a great deal, a 2001 Acura 3.2 with 31,000 actual miles. It's in great shape except my wife thinks it smells of smoke. I think it's more a smell of a coverup from smoke. The original owner of 12 years supposedly didn't smoke. The...

I posted this on What did you detail today thread and didn't receive a reply. Need advice so I can move on. Product used was ULTIMA Paint Guard Plus sealant, WOWA. I buffed out swirls & water spots on my 96 SVT Cobra. It's black and scratches easily. Since I've got a bad back I have to do it...

Hi, I bought the concentrate of UWW, I think it's 16-18 ounces here on AG. Today I did my first WW ever. I used our new to us 2012 Ford Fusion Candy Red as the test subject. I mixed up per the instructions 1/2 oz to 22 oz distilled water in a ZEP spray bottle. I used MF towels purchased from...

I'm going to switch to classic car insurance before I take our 96 SVT Cobra back out on the road. My main reason is agreed value. My current insurer State Farm won't do agreed value. I've been in talks with both and would like to sign the papers on Monday. I don't want to take the car out...

I thought I brought all of my product in for the winter. But I looked in my car trunk and found an almost full bottle of Ultima Detail Spray Plus froze solid. We had some nights where it went to -10. Is this still good or is it shot? Thanks, Spiney-Dave

I made a beginners mistake and buffed over the black chrome ring around my door lock on my 96 SVT Cobra. Is there a spray on or brush only, or trick to tone down the chrome back to black chrome. It's a minor thing, but it bugs me and reminds me of a dumb mistake. Thanks, Spiney-Dave

The new season has started. For the love of God please show Wayne some new top tips! They are wasting a great oppourtunity and boring us who are into detailing and watch every show. Otherwise, great job, just tired of seeing the Green Hornet paint brought back to life, lol.

I have a 96 SVT Cobra, black. In my opinion it scratches easily. I detailed it for a show last weekend. I have another this weekend. The car is lightly dusty with some bugs from traveling. What is the best way to clean it without reintroducing scratches and swirl marks. After I corrected...

I take my car to the local dragstrip, Maple Grove near Reading PA, a couple of times for fun. They put a number on your windshield and side window with some sort of window paint or shoe polish. At the end of the night or next day it's hard as hell to get off. No regular window product seems...

I'm going to prep my black Cobra Mustang for a show this weekend. Probably working in garage because its supposed to rain next few days. It's already washed. So I want to clay it. What to use for wipe down after clay? Next using Meg's MF DA system. After that another wash or 20% IPA ...

Here is my Ford Ranger with rain water beading on Colonite 845 @ 6 months. Plus the truck is dirty too. I'm satisfied. Truck was Clayed with Meg's clay, onr lube, 845 put on with Griots DA CL pad white I think. Put on during a warm day in January.

I was at a product demo a year ago and a product rep from Meguiars was there. He was working under a EZ UP Type canopy. It worked well. I want to buy a canopy. Do you know the size they use? I'm guessing it was larger than 10x10'. Thanks, Dave

I've got a new shipment of Cobra MF towels and a new bag of another brand towels. I also purchased my first bottle of MF cleaner/rejuvenator from AG. Blackfire I think. Should I wash the towels before my first use? If so can I machine dry on low? I have a show to prep for today and I don't...

I may be buying a vgc used Volvo 850 tomorrow. There are 2 issues my wife is concerned about. The trim has all gone to faded gray. What's the best product for plastic trim and rubber seals/ strips etc. I tried Mother's Back to Black on our current Volvo wagon and it has no staying power. I...

I want to buy an EZ UP type canopy this weekend. This is just for personal detailing. There are some on sale until Saturday 10x10. What size is large enough for an average compact car? My mustang which is my main concern is 15' long and approx 6' wide. Thanks, Spiney-Dave

I want to take advantage of the free shipping. I have a 96 Cobra, black. Paint is in pretty good shape but has swirls, a few rids, and some water spots. No deep scratches. I bought the Meg's DA MF system last year along with a Griots 6" DA. The kit came with 2 each of the correction and...
