My buddy put a bottle of that stuff in his passenger seat and it leaked out onto the leather, causing this horrendous stain. It won't come out with the common leather cleaning products, any ideas?

So this thread was supposed to be about my 1990 Firebird: It's a survivor, a 74k miler with factory t-tops and such.. But whomever did the most recent paint job did some crap work... Good from far, but FAR from good. Turns out there were actually horrible runs in the paint and some really...

We have a paint booth at our store and I just had a conversation with the painter about waxing/sealing a vehicle after it's been freshly repaired and painted. He mentioned on one breath that he "will sometimes hand glaze them on their way out" and in the next breath he mentioned that we...

Okay, it's one of the worst eyesores on my Yukon: (No, not the dealer sticker, the peeling coating on the tail light?) What are my options?

You may remember my mention of my wheel plight: http://www.autogeekonline.net/forum/ask-expert-featuring-mike-phillips/61511-damage-control-wheels.html well I've also got a step-son who has been abusing some really nice chrome wheels for a while now... I decided that the best plan of action...

What a lucky fellow Ivan must be, to have won a home with me in an Autogeek online contest! I quickly drummed up an order so that I could get my Ivan AND a few goodies that were (all of the sudden) must haves for my detailing collection. Just like that, Ivan was whisked away from...

I am a car salesman and I see swirls... Everywhere. :nomore: When I came to AutoGeek it was following a google search for how to repair what I have come to know as "swirls" from improper wash techniques and the "holograms" that were the proposed "fix". What a ride it has been, so far. I now...

My wheels on my Yukon, they are good from far: But far from good: I need a (preferably DIY inexpensive) plan of attack to: Clean them as best as possible Remove oxidation and rust Remove peeling from barrels, refinish Polish face of wheel As mentioned, I am not opposed to tackling this...

2013 Buick Regal in Black Diamond Tri-coat Really metallic and brilliant: After I clay it and check it over, which one of my waxes/sealants in my arsenal would you use? Bear in mind that my objective is (what else?) to make the metallic color POP. I've got, in no particular order: Collinite...

I know there's got to be a huge contingent of people out there snapping photos right now.. Here's a few I've snapped of the truck: Anybody else got a few to share?

I literally just finished doing the Yukon full process: ultimate compound, ultimate polish two-step process and then Wolfgang's paint sealant 3.0.. And the hail dents were bothering me. So I am picking it up at the dent guys shop and As I walk in I see him hand compounding the hood with a...

Hey, sorta copying off of a similar thread, I was wondering if I were to set up a weekly/monthly/annual get together at the new car Dealership I work for, would there be any interest? Feed back please

The above is a statement made on another forum that I am a member of. I'm just curious as to how you would respond to this? Oh, and make no mistake, it's the beginning of a sales pitch for a sealant/coating that he claims lasts for years and won't "swirl" like waxes and sealants. Seems like a...

So we took this lil gem on trade about 6 months ago, only 35K miles on a 2006 and it was swirled out.. It got the standard "hand glaze" after the production detail and it looked great until the wax wore off. Now, its covered in dirt from not having a rinse off for a few weeks and sitting out...

I had an idea to pick up some extra cash and make some new friends, maybe advertising paint correction, either online or at the car shows and stuff? Here's what I've got so far, the idea was to solicit "paint correction", not "my kids are messy" detailing jobs, if that makes sense.. Include a...

I swear I screw something up on every order! I read and read to make sure and get the right stuff, then I screw up anyway. I decided to get the Hydrotech pad system and downsize to a 5 inch plate and 5.5 pad, like so many here suggest.. I also wanted to get an even smaller backing plate for...

Wolfgang Deep Gloss Paint Sealant 3.0. I ordered the free sample with my latest order and I also popped the $6 or whatever for another sample.. My question is how much overall surface can I cover with this much? I'd like to do the Wrangler (all the plastic!!! Argh!), will there be enough...
