So I had never used an iron remover before, but as I had gone much longer between details than normal, I added this step to my routine yesterday evening. I used Gyeon iron, and it seemed to provide great results. Wheels and all brake components were hit with the product as well, let it dwell...

I've used can coat several times, but have always had a garage for it to cure in the past. I had no access to one this time, and applied it outdoors. We had no rain in the forecast, but ended up with a thunderstorm and a brief but strong downpour a little over four hours after the application...

Just curious if any of you pros are in my general vicinity should I opt to go that route in the future. If so, I may have some follow up questions that we can take to email or PM. Thanks!

I've been a consistent user of Blackfire Wet Diamond and Wolfgang Deep Gloss sealants and have been very happy with the results. I've really been wanting to try one of their liquid variants. The thought of being able to do my entire car in 15 minutes or so sounds great. It's time to prep...

I have a road trip coming up this summer with the family and really don't want to pack my huge bag with most of my car care supplies in it. I've done that in the past, and it just takes up too much space. For general around town driving, I always have a ziplock bag in the glove box with a...

Six months since the last detail and sealant coat. Lasted all through winter and still going strong. Just a quick wash this morning, and she looked too good walking out of work to not take a quick picture.

When applying a tire dressing, is everyone using their applicator to really get the product onto the angled bead portion of the tire next to the rim, or are you just applying product to the main part of the tire's sidewall? I've been using the edge of the applicator to get it down all the way...

Protection going strong four months after application and subjected to harsh winter conditions!

I live in the pacific northwest and have a snow covered vehicle currently. While I don't particularly want to use the touchless car wash's actual wash products, I've been considering going through and using just the water function to melt off all the snow and ice, followed up by their "spotless...

I'll try to condense this story... I've been hearing a rotational rubbing noise from the wheel area on my 2014 Ford Fusion for a while, had it in to the dealer several times to figure out the problem. They finally heard it too and told me it was "the tires flexing on the wheels". I know, I...

My son threw up in the backseat on perforated leather. I cleaned it up as best I could with water and rags, followed by a good cleaning with Blackfire interior cleaner. I can still smell the vomit, and it seems likely to have seeped through the perforations into the seat cushion below. Is...

I've always used Blackfire Wet Diamond sealant on my car and have been very happy with the results. I do everything by hand, and although this takes me a long time, the end result has always been well worth the effort. I've been reading about Hydro2 and watching videos, and it just seems...

Somewhat off topic...I will be purchasing snow tires and wheels for my 2014 Ford Fusion in the next week or so. I previously drove a 4WD truck so didn't switch out summer/winter tires. This got me thinking about what the best way to store the summer wheels and tires would be. My garage is...

Got her all prepped for winter. Wash, Iron-x, clay, Blackfire gloss enhancing polish, and Blackfire wet diamond sealant. Glass also got Aquapel, and tried out Blackfire crystal seal on the wheels.

The product description on AG says it's safe for painted/clearcoated wheels, but on the product label itself, it doesn't mention that type of wheel, just aluminum and alloys. I just wanted to confirm with someone who has used it on painted/clearcoated wheels to make sure it's safe before I...

I treated my windshield with Aquapel today. I think perhaps I was moving too slowly and maybe also because I was in the sun, but at first it really clouded up the whole windshield. I followed the directions using paper towels to take it off, but it was tough and required quite a bit of elbow...

Hey everyone, I'm not a pro by any means, just a guy who likes to spend time on his car. This was my first attempt at a real exterior detail on a vehicle. My Fusion is just a few weeks old. I don't have any machines (yet) so everything was done by hand. - Wash with Chemical Guys Mr. Pink -...

Hi everyone. I'm detailing my 2014 Ford Fusion tomorrow. I've had the car about two weeks. For the exterior, I'll be washing, claying, then using Blackfire gloss enhancing polish, followed by Blackfire wet diamond sealant. My schedule is very full, and tomorrow is the only time in the...
