    Help with brown spots on my white paint!

    My white car has around 4000 miles and is protected with Adam's graphene spray coating and properly maintained. Today I discovered 4, yes, 4 brown dots on the car. 3 are on the Xpel PPF and 1 on the bare paint. The 3 on the PPF don't have a demarcated border like the one on the paint surface...

    Glass sealant help!

    Been struggling with the wiper blades chattering/skipping after trying out many products... Here is the story: Just got a new 2021 car a couple of months ago and decided to put Aquapel on the glass areas, as I have been using Aquapel for many many years with no issues of wiper skipping on my...

    Spray bottle thread size?

    Hi all, does anyone know if the regular spray bottle top thread is 22mm? If so, does anyone know where I can find a quick disconnect mechanism like the male/female water hose quick disconnect? Thanks!

    Carbon fiber defect?

    Can anyone tell me what I am looking at? The cloudiness is not on the surface of the clear coat at all. This carbon fiber piece was made using the prepeg dry carbon method and subsequently clear coated. The defect is only visible under certain lightening and is not seen when the light source...

    Are those water spots?

    I don't normally drive this particular car in the rain but a couple of days ago it started raining pretty hard when I was out. I finally got a chance to wash my car today and have discovered what appears to be water spots but they are not. The rear of the car was completely coated with CarPro...

    Gyeon Mohs really sucks (photo)

    Have used Cquartz UK about 3 years ago on this particular car and I thought it was time to try something different. Well, first try it wasn’t successful as the surface area became cloudy/hazy right after I applied the second coat. Please see my other thread about this issue. Then, the second...

    Gyeon Mohs problem

    It is about 56 degrees in my garage with the humidity of 57%. I applied Gyeon Mohs today to the rear bumper of my car following the instructions to the T. After I wiped off the second layer after 1 hour of waiting from the first coat I noticed the paint at some areas is cloudy. I believe...

    Help regarding repairing a chip!

    It's really hard to capture a small chip about 1.5mmx1.5mm so please bear with me. I would like to know if the chip is into primer at all. If it's not, can I just fill the chip with a clear coat only? Whatever that we see here the color is extremely close to the body color, which is Ibis...

    CarPro HydroFoam and 2 bucket washing

    Can the CarPro HydroFoam be used with a 2 bucket wash system? I really don't want to grind all of the dirt and debris around the paint while I foam the car and start gliding the wash mitt right away. I was thinking of using Reset in a foam gun. Foam the whole car, and pressure washer/rinse...

    What's this on my windshield?

    I thought this was some watermark so I whipped out my Griots 6 inch polisher along with their pads and glass polish. This did not do a thing to the "staining" that I am seeing. Is it water etching? The griots glass polisher did remove all of the watermarks on the windshield but I don't think...

    Topping CQuartz with other sealants

    I did an application of CQuartz on an old 5 spoke wheel after machine polish and Eraser. After a day I applied Griots Sealant, Meguiars Ultimate wax, Wolfgang Deep Gloss, and Chemical Guys V7 Hybrid Sealant on 4 of the 5 spokes for testing. CQUARTZ is really not slippery compared to waxes and...

    How many CQuartz layers?

    Today I put 2 coats of CQuartz after I polished using Griot's 6" with Lake Country CCS Orange and white 6.5" and hydro-tech 3". Then wiped down using Eraser. How many layers of CQuartz can I layer? The more the better?

    Proper speed for a 3" pad on a 6" Griot's

    I am using a rotary adapter so I can use a 3" rotary backing on my 6" Griot's, so it's further away from the machine itself. However I feel that at higher speeds at around 5 or even 4.5 it becomes a little unstable. What's the appropriate speed that everyone else is using when they have the...

    TRIX vs. Detailer's Cleanse-All Exterior Cleaner vs. Citrus power

    I have both TRIX and Detailer's all exterior cleaner. Does anyone know if TRIX or Detailer's all exterior cleaner will strip sealants? If left a little dry, they would leave what appears to be etching on the clearcoat, which will require polishing to remove. Does anyone know what that is? Is...

    Klasse AIO+High Gloss VS. Wolfgang Deep Gloss Sealant 3.0

    Has anyone compared the 2 in terms of longevity? I have tried the Deep Gloss Sealant on my R8 and I think it lasts maybe about 3 months. The slickness would be almost gone after I wash the car using a shampoo. It's not a daily driver so I normally just use a detailing spray like the Ultima...
