    "Working In" a Sealant?

    In a recent discussion about using a polisher to apply products, a question came up about whether to apply pressure or just let the weight of the polisher supply the pressure. And yes, I know at least some pressure would need to be applied on vertical surfaces. Anyway, a statement was made...

    Linting MF Towels. Why????

    It appears that the MF linting is much more common than I would have ever imagined. I have MF towels from close to a dozen different sources and have never had the problem. This includes some Cobra Juniors and some 530s. It seems like I may have been lucky. So..... What is the cause for such a...

    Polisher replacement parts?

    Having recently read of some brush replacement problems with some polishers made me wonder. (These were not 20 year old machines which might be a problem to get parts for. They were fairly recent models.) Is there a problem getting replacement parts for some polishers? Some wear and...

    Same, different?

    Anyone want to stick their neck out and comment on what they know about the new DA polishers coming out. Not the Flex, but the units by PC, GG, Meg's. Are some of them the same, similar, totally different machines? (Yes is not an acceptable answer.:)) Maybe even state a few pros & cons based on...

    Rinseless washing in the cold?

    Anyone have comments on their results when using rinseless washes in a cold ambient on a cold vehicle? I have used them a lot in cold weather, but the washing was always done in my garage with heat and the temperature has always been in the 60+ range. What happens if the temperature is in the...

    A Rinseless Wash Tip

    I think I have mentioned this before, but it was in response to a question and probably was buried. When doing a rinseless wash, make your first "drying" pass with a damp MF towel. I dip a MF into the solution and wring it as dry as I can by hand. I then wipe up the large puddles of wash...

    Griot's Garage Waterless Spray-On Car Wash?

    This stuff has been around long enough that someone must have some opinions about it. I did find one thread where the user was very unimpressed in the fact that it didn't do anything with his water spots. Water spots are not usually a problem for me and I was wondering at how it did at cleaning...

    BOGO Updated

    Interesting that so many comments are made when the BOGO page isn't changed, yet nothing was mentioned when it was updated a day or so back. Anyway, it does have some different deals now.

    CCS Euro Foam Hand Polish Applicators???

    A search didn't turn up much in the way of information from users of these. They seem like they might be a handy thing to have around for the flaw/blemish that isn't too bad rather than get out the PC, pads, extension cord, etc. How about some comments from those that have used them?

    Ultima Elastrofoam Paint Cleaning System?

    This product has been around for a couple of years with not a lot of discussion. After a search, I have found: 1. That it doesn't mar 2. That it does mar 3. Regular clay is much better 4. The Elastrofoam is much better than regular clay 5. It is too expensive 6. It can be used many times and is...

    Rinseless Wash Pre-Soak?

    Can some of you rinseless washers that do the pre-soak thing answer a few questions? 1. What is the best ratio? I have read to use the regular wash ratio and have also read to use the QD ratio. Quite a difference. 2. Do you really soak/saturate the dirt with the pre-soak solution? 3. Do you...

    WTT: ONR for DP Rinseless Wash & Gloss

    Anyone interested in trading 16 or 32 oz. of the new DP Rinseless Wash & Gloss for the same amount of ONR? I have almost a gallon of ONR on hand and still have about a half gallon of the DP 4 in 1. Trying the new RW&G has some appeal, but I really don't need a lot more rinseless wash product...

    How do you wash your Cobra Bone?

    I have several Cobra Bone MF covered sponges I use for rinseless washing, both Four in One and ONR with good results. How do some of you wash the Cobra Bone? So far, I have only hand washed them and while they get clean enough that I feel comfortable using them, I wonder if machine washing would...

    Cobra Supreme 530 Microfiber Towel for Rinseless Wash Media?

    Have any of you used the Cobra Supreme 530 Microfiber Towel for your Rinseless Wash Media? The thickness and plush feeling would seem to make it an ideal product for that use. I have used several products with good results, but nothing really seemed to stand out as being really better. Maybe...

    Private Message Notification?

    Is e-mail notification and the pop-up window the default setting for PM notifications? I receive mine with no problem, but either the people I am sending PMs aren't getting them or they don't want to talk to me. Bunky and AeroCleanse are two at this time that I have either sent PMs or responded...

    ONR Rinseless Wash Mix?

    Several people have commented on the fact that it takes 1/2 as much ONR as it does DP 4 in 1 to use them for a rinseless wash. Several people also have commented on using ONR at 1 oz. per gallon of water rather than the 1/2 oz, suggested by Optimum. Just out of curioisity, how many ONR user...

    Waterless Wash, Detailer's Pride or Poorboy's?

    In a recent thread, a member mentioned that Detailer's Pride Waterless Wash did a much better jpb of cleaning. Having used several gallons of Poorboy's Spray & Wipe over the years, I find that very surprising, but..... I have never used the DP Waterless Wash and can't really compare them. How...
