    Lake Country Force Pads at AG?

    AG is still selling the older LC Hybrid Pads for forced-rotation polishers, but they have been effectively replaced by LC Force Pads featuring Hybrid Foam which have been out for around 6 months now. LC doesn't even list Hybrid pads on their site anymore. Do we know if/when AG will be selling...

    Maintenance wash shampoo?

    What shampoos do you like and are safe to use during a maintenance wash (not rinseless or waterless) that won't remove your LSP? Would you want them to have protection qualities to them or no? Keep in mind I also use D156 as a drying aid on all of my maintenance washes and to help boost my LSP...

    Meguiar's Mirror Bright vs DUB wheel cleaner

    It's been a while since I've contributed anything to the community, so I decided to do a very quick comparison of the new Meguiar's Mirror Bright wheel cleaner against the outgoing DUB wheel cleaner. They're both color changing wheel cleaners. They're both developed by Meguiar's. It's easy to...

    Meguiar's D156 on a dry or wet car?

    My maintenance wash will normally consist of a normal or rinseless wash, dry, and application f D156 to help boost whatever LSP (usually M21) was used on my last major detail. Again, I'll normally dry the car entirely before applying D156 and buffing it off. Inversely, I've read some people just...

    Microfiber care before wash?

    I'm not a fan of running the washer for just a handful of microfiber towels, so I let them build up a little bit so I can wash one significant load. When you guys are done with your dirtied up microfiber towels directly after use, what do you do with them between that time and when you wash...

    Pro Blend Bottle Proportioner 128 oz Review

    When I buy product, I usually buy it in the larger, super concentrated sizes. From there, I'll pour the product into smaller bottles to work directly with. A lot of the time, I will only need an ounce at a time to dilute it properly, but it's always been difficult for me to pour from 128 oz jugs...

    Sprayers for what?

    I recently stocked up on some Meguiar's APC, Super Degreaser, Glass Cleaner, and Hyper Dressing. Picked up the spray bottles and spray heads as well. All of it came today. The spray heads were packed loosely and there were two different kind. The problem is I don't know if the sprayer heads are...

    But wait... there's more!!!

    I thought this would be fun. Someone recently posted on a car care product that was marketed as the magic thing that could solve all of life's problems on top of making your car look good. It made me think of all the car care products out there that play on consumer's ignorance. The ones that...

    Garage storage solutions?

    I'm going to be ripping out my current workbench in my garage and replacing it with a new garage storage solution. Workbench, cabinets, racks, shelving, ect. I don't mind paying for quality stuff and I have no brand loyalties. What would you guys recommend?

    Mytee S-300 Tempo carpet extractor?

    My SO is still trying to figure out what to get me for Xmas and I immediately thought carpet extractor. It doesn't need to be hot water because I have a steamer for that. Doing a search around here on the Mytee S-300 Tempo, there hasn't been a lot of talk about it lately. So, is this still a...

    Xmas auto care gift recommendations for my Dad...

    I thought this would be a fun little thread that people could contribute to and, in turn, help me work through a little puzzle. Some background. My 70 year old dad loves cars, just retired this year, and has nothing but time. He use to get all of his vehicles detailed from by a friend and local...

    Forum rules?

    Hey all. Is there a place on AGO that lists the forum rules or standards of conduct? I'm needing clarification on a certain issue and would like to see if I missed something.

    Pouring liquid product from gallon bottles without spills?

    When I buy new liquid product, such as waterless or rinseless wash, I usually buy it from AG in the larger gallon containers. From there, I'll pour the product into smaller spray bottles and what not. A lot of the time, I will only need an ounce at a time, but this is very difficult for me to do...

    Flex XCE 9-8 150

    Alright guys. I was getting kinda frustrated with the inconsistent and incomplete info about Flex's new forced-rotation DA, so I just went and got the information myself. Here's what I've found. The XCE 9-8 150 is a new forced-rotation dual-action polisher from Flex. It is an update of the XC...

    2015 Honda Fit in White Orchid Pearl

    I took our new commuter car and gave it a good detail. You might think new car, not too many problems, right? Well this one was sitting on the lot for a while and the paint was definitely neglected. Lots of swirls. Lots of water etching. As cheap of a car as this is, the body on it is fairly...

    More forced-rotation DA options...

    In a previous post, I was choosing what polisher to move up to from a PC and landed on the 3401 for several reasons you can read in the original post. http://www.autogeekonline.net/forum/auto-detailing-tools-accessories/91203-upgrading-porter-cable-7424xp.html That got me thinking and asking...

    Upgrading from Porter Cable 7424XP

    I'm an enthusiast and had my PC 7424 for several years before upgrading that to the 7424XP in 2009, so I've been working with the PC for over a decade now. Probably gone through several dozens worth of cars with it. It's definitely been enough rounds to have intimate knowledge of the tool that I...

    Foam cannon for AR383...

    I'm looking for a good foam cannon that will work for the AR383. I've read that a lot of foam cannons will not work out of the box with the AR383, so I'm looking to see what my options are with very minimal customization. I know I could always go with AR's own cannon, but I'd like to see if...
