I'm thinking about giving my car another full detail while the weather is enjoyable at the moment, but I'm not exactly sure if I want to strip all the protection from the paint and start fresh or just put some sealant on the paint after it's clayed. The paint currently has one layer of...

This just happened less than a few minutes ago. Every time I try to go to YouTube, I get this message: 500 Internal Server Error Sorry, something went wrong. A team of highly trained monkeys has been dispatched to deal with this situation. If you see them, show them this information: I...

I have two electric guitars for sale. One is an ESP Eclipse II, the other is an (ESP) LTD F-400FM. If I'm breaking forum rules, sorry, I'm just kind of wanting to sell either one or both of them, as I need the extra money, and my girlfriend's car is turning into a money pit, so the extra money...

I just recently got myself a 5 liter jug of Sonax Full Effect and a 16 oz. bottle of CG Glozzworkz Shampoo. Just got done trying them both. :) Boy, the Sonax is the worst smelling product I've ever smelled so far. :laughing: It smells like 100 cats marked their territory in the cleaner mixed...

You know how everyone has one thing that can just make you cringe, something that can really just gross you out? For me... that's teeth, lol. Bones, too, specifically broken bones, but I'm on about teeth right now. I just had a wisdom tooth pulled because it broke on me and started acting...

What's up with Chemical Guys putting all kinds of clueless bimbos in their videos? It only takes attention from what they're trying to sell and the girls look like sluts anyway. [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W7NNq7RQjXQ]Dust Monster Merino Wool Auto Duster - Chemical Guys Car Care Sexy...

I'm thinking I'll be on the hunt for a new paint sealant. So far I've used 3M Performance Finish, Menzerna Power Lock, and now Meguiar's ULW. I need some suggestions and advice on some really good paint sealants. So far with the ULW, not really sure that I'm liking it. Why? The scent of it. It...

I've been doing some research on this product for a bit and there are many different opinions as to whether FE works on paint as well as wheels. I've read reviews saying it doesn't work at all on paint, but then I've seen actual pics of FE on a white car and it was melting the iron bits right...

Can I use the above applicator for applying sealant to paint? It's marketed as a tire gel applicator, but the gray foam is really soft and it has a nice egg crate design and the grip would help me out a lot. I'm just wondering if it would be suitable for applying sealant.

So I just tried Meguiar's Ultimate Liquid Wax today and I'll ramble a bit on my thoughts about it. Stuff smells pretty good, I guess that "enhances" the experience...? It spreads really easily, but I've noticed that this sealant nearly disappeared into the paint. Maybe because the paint is...

Has anyone tried the Ultimate Wax and what do you think about it? I've pretty much given up on Menzerna Power Lock as its performance is kinda... eh... lately. I went back to 3M Performance Finish which is holding up nicely and gets topped with Meg's D156 during the drying stage and another...

Just got some new microfibers from AMMONYC, used them today while detailing a friend's car, worked fine, feel great, but I gave them a hand wash today and two cycles on low tumble dry, no fabric softener or scent sheets, and the corners of the two towels I washed are kind of unraveling, exposing...

...for detailing or car care in general. I remember the days I used to get up early and find my car covered in that dew in the muggy mornings. I used to take a bath towel and wipe the car clean, but only after I washed it, but still... :laughing: Can't believe I did that...

I'm really considering going with a permanent coating for my 2013 Scion tC. The more I watch and read on these coatings, the better it sounds. I love maintaining my car, but I've been trying to not let it consume me so much, so I'm looking for ways to make it easier and quicker for me to detail...

I was watching some videos on YouTube from that DipYourCar channel and I seriously want to get my car Dipped. Sounds like it's damn near maintenance-free! It'll save me a lot of work, and if I get tired of it, off it comes. There's a place in Tampa that quoted me around 700 bucks for a full dip...

I've been looking into Opti-Coat, greatly considering getting it for myself, but also for my dad's 2006 Toyota Tacoma. The cab and hood of his truck has been having some bad CC failure, so it's in the process of getting repainted. I told him once the paint was fully cured, I'd help him out by...

Just wanted to say that I'm pretty much throwing in the towel when it comes to detailing. I'm sick of it. I'm pretty much sick of everything at this point... work... life... it's all a damn joke. What little bit of sanity I have left is somehow keeping me from quitting my job, keying the hell...

I've been considering trying MCL because I love MPL so much, I figured MCL would be a nice addition. Is paint protected with just sealant any less protected than with sealant and carnauba? I've basically be sticking with sealants and left carnauba behind. But lately I've been wanting to use a...

Got a busy day tomorrow. Fishing early in the morning with my dad and the car gets a bath in the evening time. I can't wait to clean it. :D
