Hey Guys, New car coming. CX-5 or a Rav4. The wife and I have not decided just yet. I'm looking to coat the cladding and rims only. I would like to do the whole car but I do not have 24 hour access to a pristine garage to do the prep and coating over the course of a few days. I also enjoy...

I just wanted to say hello again to everyone. It's been way too long. We have had a lot of family medical issues over the last two years and the desire to detail just got out of my blood. I actually never thought I would start again. Then boom family tragedy and I turn right to my favorite...

Hey Everyone, I had to do the my wife's car in a rush and it was way to cold for 845. I went with Epic. I like it but I want my 845. Anyone have any ideas about tossing some 845 on top. I still have enough Epic to do her car twice but I want to make sure the 845 is on there for winter. She has...

I know OPC can be used on paint. Has any one tried it as a wipe down before LSP application. I'm okay with IPA but I usually have to go over it several times before a panel is squeaky clean. It also takes a while for IPA to evaporate. My goal here is to minimize product on hand and maximize...

Hey guys, My dad just picked one up white roof and mirrors cosmic blue body panels. I'm trying to put together a first detail plan together. He's picking up all the cost on products I don't have so that's awesome. It will be garage kept except when out being driven. He is 73 so he does not go...

Just wanted to let the fellow Geek's know that right now it's 2 for $10 at Advanced Autoparts here on the east coast. I heard mixed reviews but I'm running low on 1Z and Sonax so with the left over money on a gift card I was able to find one bottle and I only paid $2.35. Hey even if it ends up...

I was hoping to pick up some Deironizer to avoid some of the more expensive ones. The only place I see it available is in Canada. I know they came out with a V4 which you are supposed to let dry and pressure wash off. Can anyone shed some light on where they went in the US. I want them back.

I have experience with 3M vinyl graphics. Most jobs were full wraps so we took them off and detailed the car. I have a Tundra coming up and the graphics are failing. The paint underneath is 3 years old the rest of the paint is 7. I detail this truck yearly. The question is this. Detail the rest...

Okay I'm leaning toward Wolf's deironizer since it's on sale and I can use it for decon as well as wheels. Then I noticed the HD wheel cleaner which is also a good price. Anyone have any opinions. I know I will get dual purpose out of the Wolf's that is why I am leaning towards it.

I'm running low on pad primer and I know that you can use QD's for this purpose. Has anyone ever used Detail Juice as a primer and how did it work out? I have plenty of it and the last thing I want to do is buy a new bottle of something.

This past week I had some issues with my PC acting up. Speed six it spins fine lower speeds it spins but depending on the angle or curve of a panel it stops spinning. The other issue is when I put the least amount of pressure on it I can make it stop at speed six. I mean a little bit. I'm not...

I just wanted to share for all dog fans out there. Our pending adoption has gone through. The best is the story. She is a 2 year old Plott Hound. Her and her sister were found roaming the Kentucky suburbs. The neighbors would put out food and water for them and one morning a local who happened...

Great news! I got a call for a job interview that if it's all fine a dandy would move me to a day job in NJ and off of nights in Philadelphia. Yeah worst time. I'm out of my FT job on disability because of a possible slipped, bulging or blown disc in my back. I'm still going on the interview to...
