As it seems I'm never satisfied, I'm approaching the end of my CG Diablo gel, looking for recommendations on a new wheel cleaner to try. What I want is something that: 1.) is strong enough to cut through Brembo dust (nastiest muck on the planet) 2.) requires very minimal agitation - preferably...

Doing my first Volvo - the new XC90 in onyx black metallic. Anyone worked with this paint before and, if so, am I in for a world of pain (eg hard paint)? Tips as always appreciated

Curious if others had seen this, what are your thoughts, and if AG will eventually carry this or a like sized bag badged in one of the PBAuto brands? Seems like a good bag to carry for waterless washes. Concours Bag - Bags, Creepers, Carts - In Your Garage - Griot's Garage

Just used the BF BlackICE paste wax again yesterday and think the buzz has worn off - but man is it good. Today I maintain with the BF Poly spray but I know another company makes a spray wax for black cars which has the montan included in the mix. Wondering if the idea has been broached by...

So a buddy of mine over the weekend asked if he could try my pinnacle black label coating on his new car (beautiful new black Mustang GT) so I agreed. Told him he needed to have it polished and cleaned up perfect and I'd help him apply and knock down high spots. Well as we were applying I was...

Hey all, Wondering if anyone has done this setup - adding the inline softener filter from AGO to the CR Spotless or GG Deionizer systems? In my search I've seen it suggested but never anyone with a review of how it actually goes together. I have massively hard water at my house (550-650ppm...

Hey all, As I am mostly just an enthusiast who does work for friends I have a question. I was doing a full polish / wax (no interior) detail for a friend of a friend and he asked if I accept a tip on top of my price. On a detail like this, given it costs a bit, I usually don't expect one. For...

Hey all, I know I've seen topics that address the issue I'm having but can't find them. On my foam cannon, for the last two washes, it hasn't been operating well. I have changed nothing in my products or process, but rather than laying out a solid stream of foam it just seems to glob out a lazy...

Curious - has anyone tried this out yet? I've used a blower and QD or Spray Wax as a drying aid but am interested to see if others have tried this product and found it better?

Is not possible that it actually smells WORSE than regular iron-x? It's like walking into a bathroom after someone who just tried one of those spray fresheners over their work and it is just an awful mix. Thoughts?

Working on a specific trouble area on a car and can't seem to get this corrected. It's my dad's ride (2012 BMW 5 series in graphite metallic) and he claims this happened when he was cleaning off bird droppings. He just used a wet paper towel (doh!) and when he wiped away these scratches were...

Looking at the dilution amounts for concentrated waterless wash offerings I am shocked at the differences between Pinnacle (1:32) and Blackfire (1:4). While BF costs $5 less or 1/2 gallon, Pinnacle will produce significantly more usable product. I am running low on my Pinnacle wash I got on...

I'm planning to start helping out some friends / family with detailing theirs cars on the weekend, I'm looking for ways to make my products more mobile than the plastic tub I keep them in now. As such, from people who own one of the AG (or proprietary brand labeled) bags, I am hoping to get a...

I think I must be cursed due to how much I care about my car - universe likes to get a laugh at my torment. After just doing my full detail just a few weeks ago, yesterday a valet (which I never do except location was valet only) parked my car next to a planter where sprinklers came on and...

I apologize in advance as I am sure there are several informative threads which already exist on this topic but was hoping to clarify a few things which remain unclear to me after reading many of the product descriptions and user reviews. 1.) In formulation, what is the fundamental difference...

In most threads, it's seems people are die-hard on these product lines. Who has used both and which did you end up preferring long-term?

Looking for opinions and experiences with different spray/quick waxes. For the last few years I have been using a combo of Megs UQW during drying (attempting to minimize swirls) followed by a wipe down with Megs GC Quik Wax to add pop after every wash. However, now that I switched my detail...
