For those of you with a LOT of experience with the 360 I was wondering how flexible you found it to be when it comes to matching with different pads to achieve the best cut. I have used it a handful of times, mostly on cars with very light swirls & scratches. I am planning on doing an older...

So I understand that with clearcoated or painted wheels that you can (some say should) use the same polish that you would use on the body of the car to give it a nice cleaning. Has anyone ever tired XMT360 on a powerball on clearcoated wheels?

I just bought a powerball mini and I want to give it a try on some nasty wheels belonging on some family members. Some have chrome wheels, some polished alumimum, some coated...etc. I have been doing some reading of the products here at AG (there are A LOT) of them, looking for a general...

So I was washing my mother in laws car today ad noticed that she had a TON of little tiny pits in her windshield. The car is 15 years old so I know it is never going to be perfect but I'd like to try to get as much out as possible. Would claying do the trick? Any other tips/tricks?

So I received an AG Foam gun for Fathers day and so far I am not too impressed at all, in fact I might sell it. :( The first time I used it I only used 1 oz od DP Extreme Foam and 1-1.5 ozs of NST7 soap since I only had the 2oz DP Extreme Foam trial tube. The foam was pretty cool but I...

It looks like I maybe detailing a family members older Mercedes and wanted to know if there was any bits of info I might need a heads up on before I start. The car is probably 15 years old or so and it is that fairly popular goldish/light tan color that MB had for a long time. She says that...

I know that sounds like an odd question but there seems to be a bit of debate whether or not Ford's Mineral Grey contains metal flake. I am asking because it very well may help steer towards a specific final wax. So what do the experts here think? Metal Flake or no Metal Flake?

So far I have been using Natty's Blue as my final layer after using XMT360 and it has always worked out very well. I am wondernig though if there is another set of products out there that would give me an ever better, wetter, deeper shine. I have heard/read great stuff about the Pinnacle...

So I pulled out my new 03 Cobra and gave it a good bath with my new Foam Gun and DP Extreme Foam, which by the way worked well. Just don't bother trying NST7 in it, it doesn't work well. Anyway the paint was already in mint conidition with lots of Zaino on it so I didn't feel the need to clean...

I was curious what the experts here think about gold colored paint. Is it a dark paint or light paint? I am curious because I used Nattys Blue on my old dark blue Mustang and it worked beautifully. Now I have a mineral grey (below) Cobra and my wife's car is a gold colored minivan (below)...

About a 10 days ago I bought a PC and a bunch of goods from AG. I had never really done much with my cars other than a hose, dish soap and turtle wax by hand. My car for being 5 years old was in pretty decent shape, some swirls and light scrathed, a few chips from rocks and a previous owners...

So I am getting ready to do my first legit detail on my car this weekend and I thought I had it pretty much planned out in my head. wash..clay..rinse & dry with MF...mxt360..nattys blue But then I started reading about using isopropyl alcohol (IA). Since all the previous waxings have been 1...

Hello all, I am obviously new to this forum and to detailing as well so I wanted to see if I could get some opinions on this "package" of products I have in my shopping cart. To give you a little background I am like many who thought dish soap and good old turtle wax 1-2 times a year by hand...
