    Tire Dressings vs. Tire Brands

    Hello all, I have a long-term review of a tire dressing I'm almost done with and I've noticed something interesting (that I'm sure the pros know about extensively): Tire dressings seem to behave differently on different brands of tire--sometimes drastically. I've tried the dressing on 6-7...

    First Look: Mothers Waterless Wash & Wax

    First off, my apologies for the late review--been crazy busy for the past month. I was one of a lucky few picked by Nick to review the new Mothers Waterless Wah & Wax product. I used this product on a section of my wife's very dirty Honda Pilot (hadn't been washed in a month) which was coated...

    Recommendations - New Tires in 2015

    Hello All, Looking for a good budget (preferably ~$100 or less) all-season tire recommendation for 2011 Toyota Camry SE (4cyl). I live in NC, so we have hot/humid summers and "ehhh" winters that have a habit of dealing out 1 or 2 surprise heavy snow falls or ice storms. I'm a "spirited"...

    Sonax Polymer Netshield...new application method?

    Has anyone seen the video where they spray PNS directly on the surface and then buff off with a towel? I happened to see it today--have never seen that before. Search for "Sonax - All Season Detail Kit - Product Showcase" on youtube.

    Getting the Gunk off Window Tint

    So after having a lively discussion a couple weeks back about when it's ok to get a new car, I ended up replacing my 14 yr old Altima yesterday (she was costing me $3k/year to keep running). Got a new-to-me 2011 Toyota Camry SE in Magnetic Grey Metallic--I must say, the flake in the paint is...

    Any and All BMW Owners...

    How has it been owning one? Not the driving experience--more so the cost of ownership? As they get past that 50k mile mark, do you find they have a lot of issues? Just curious...

    Meguiar's DUB products

    Anyone seen these yet? I picked up some Megs UQD/UQW the other day and saw them for the first time. I almost jumped on them but wasn't sure. I read on the Meguiars forum that they are not hydrophobic like Ultimate line, but very close to the Gold Class (not an exact formula copy tho). The...

    Review for Hobbyists: Chemical Guys Hybrid V07 (Application & First Impressions)

    I’ll start by saying this is my first formal review on AG, so please excuse any points I overlook. I’ll be titling my reviews as “…for Hobbyists” because I’m not a pro—just a guy who enjoys using auto detailing products and making his car(s) look nice. CG Hybrid V07 is a product I avoided...

    Trying Paste Wax for the First Time

    I'm considering trying a paste wax for the first time--I've only used liquid waxes and Collinite #845 has been my go to for the longest. I was looking at the Dodo Juice line & my car is Sandrift Beige (there's metallic flake in there). I attached a pic [not my car] but I don't have a clean...

    "Consumer" Polishing - Mothers vs Meguiar's

    Was doing some research on some polishes and had a question: Does Mothers have an equal product line to Meguiar's Ultimate Compound + Ultimate Polish combo? I've seen California Gold line Pure Polish + Micro-Polishing Glaze combo; is that the same thing? Does it perform the same? Can you...

    Hello All, Been lurking around for some years now and just decided to register. I'm a simple enthusiast who decided to take detailing my ride more seriously when it became apparent I'd have it for the long haul--was an all over-the-counter guy until I discovered Collinite #845 on Autogeek some...
