    Polishing Pads - organizing them

    Right along with the OCD that plagues many of us, I had too many totes for different pad types, sizes, etc.. Many of those totes were underutilized, only 1/2 full due to odd pad sizes, or were just weren't big enough to accommodate all of one size/type. I decided to consolidate into one big...

    Wolfgang DGPS prep work

    Is it ok to use M205 or Menzera 4500 prior to WGDGPS 3.0 without using the paintwork polish enhancer? Will the product bond? Or can I follow the menz or Meg's polish with IPA, then DGPS? Thanks in advance for your help!

    Optimum Power Clean - 3/1 on leather (50/50 shots)

    So I was planning to vacuum, and do a quick detail on the interior of my garage queen(below). It also doubles as a hunting truck, dog kennel, etc so it's not always perfect and gets used, but I spend a considerable amount of time taking care of it, inside and out. I vacuumed the dog hair...

    So I planned to wash my car last weekend, ended up spending much more time on my Explorer, it's a newer White pearlcoat finish, with a decent, but not overwhelming amount of metallic in it. I've been using Colinnite 845 & 915 and the paint is in excellent shape. I used the swirl remover to...
