    After the rain

    A scenario that seems to be common enough for me that I should have a standard procedure. So I drive 35 nasty highway miles in a pouring rain. Like any good Autogeek I recently put Fuizon over a couple week old coat of WGPS3.0 so when I stopped hard in the garage nearly all the rain rolled off...

    Winter Wheels and Tires

    I run a dedicated set of winter wheels and tires on my car and I bought a new car so I had to buy new wheels. They are BBS SR painted in the Anthracite color. (Kind of a gun metal gray but I digress) I am considering what I should do with them as I am a few months from installing them. I was...

    New Cadillac not shiny enough!

    So I bought a Griot's 6" DA with Meguar's 105/205 in a package here. I don't remember why exactly I chose that particular package but I agonized a long time. I had a 2014 Chevrolet Diesel Cruze finished in Black Granite Metallic. After following all the directions here I topped it with WGDGP3...

    Wolgang Uber Rinseless

    Was it really that easy? I bought a new car and it immediately got rained on twice. I had the Uber Rinseless sitting in a cabinet since last fall. I finally tried it. HOLY EASY. Seriously, three gallons of water? Carefully doing one panel at a time gave me the unintended bonus of carefully...

    Ultimate winter protection?

    I have a 2014 Chevrolet Cruze. It is black. I drive it 50 miles a day through some dirty environments. I live in Michigan. Several months ago I put Wolfgang Paint Sealant on my car after doing a pretty good paint detail. It looked positively stunning. I two bucket washed the car once a week...

    Preservation of WGPS over Winter

    Hi Guys, I hope this question isn't horribly redundant but winter is approaching here in lovely Michigan and the salt will be a'flying well before the snow. I have a near month old coat of WGPS3 on my black Chevy Cruze daily driver and it is performing well beyond expectations. I habitually...

    First real try

    Hi All, The forum encouraged me to post. I wasn't sure where to put this so here it is. First off, thank you to everyone. I have always enjoyed washing my car and with your help I feel like I have moved up to a new level. I am by no means a pro but I have gotten unsolicited compliments on my...

    Drank the Koolaid

    So, I came here after googling something about detailing. I read and read and read. I bought Mike's book and read and read. I watched the DVD. I searched and searched this forum. Finally I returned the stuff I bought off of amazon and ordered a DA from here. I have a 2014 Chevrolet Cruze...

    Anyone else drive a diesel daily?

    I traded a half-ton pick up (ironically? weighing about 3 tons) for a 1.9 ton diesel burning car. So please forgive me if I randomly geek out about it. I filled up this morning and managed to squeeze in an additional 2.53 US gallons after the initial pump click off. I am averaging 42 miles to...

    Road trip prep

    New guy here - please excuse my newbness. I have a new car. It is a 2104 Chevrolet Cruze in Black Granite Metallic. It sat on the dealer lot for nearly sixty days and has the obvious witness marks from a automated car wash. I washed it twice with meg's gold whatever. The water did not bead at...

    New from Michigan

    Hello all, thanks for the approval! I am an automotive engineer and live in South Eastern Michigan. I just took delivery of a 2014 Chevrolet Cruze CTD finished in Black Granite Metallic. It is not an incredibly special or beautiful vehicle but I very much like the paint and I see no reason that...
