a few years back After watching another Ammo NYC video, i decided to try lather, larry's interior cleaner. I loved it back then, and used it to rescue the interior on an old truck I bought at the time. More recently, I used it to clean my new car interior prior to apply c6 matt dash. It reminded...

Hi all, Thought I would give a short review on ADS hero now that my bottle is almost gone. Ill give a short summary, that will probably get me some hate. It's fine, but I don't think it's the standout product all the youtube reviews make it out to be. Value: I think the price is fine, its...

Hi all, Has anyone used Koch Chemie Ceramic All Around C0.02? I am planning to do 3 cars in the near future, and I love my KCX products. Interested in feedback. There is very little info on it that I can find, but KCX has excellent chemist in my experience. I also like the idea of a German...

I recently applied C6 Matt Dash and L1 leather guard to the interior of my (now gone) Ford Maverick. The interior on the maverick is prone to scuffing, and both of these products are supposedly abrasion resistant. I am going to say now, I dont know if they added protection, or improved...

Hi all, I am 04lss. I am an enthusiast, definitely not a pro, though I like to try and get pro results. I started "Detailing" in maybe 2013 when i was in my late teens with the first car I bought on my own. It started with a Meguiars "new car care" kit. Some car wash, a claybar and some wax...

Like the title suggests, I am considering using an exterior coating on interior Piano black trim. My new GTI has an acre of Piano black trim on the center console. Its not a reflection hazard. I know from experience it is super easy to scratch and swirl and would like to put some protection on...

Hi all, I now have two white cars that need to be coated. A 2025 GTI in Opal white pearl, and a 2023 vw GLI in the more standard white. I know white isnt the most responsive color to coatings, but I know that the right paint protection will add a glass look, and others silky. I know there are...

Hi all, I recently purchased a 2025 Ford Maverick in Sand. I was planning to ceramic coat the car I traded in, so I luckily had almost everything I needed to quickly lock in that new car goodness. First, let me say thank the lord the weather was PERFECT. Low 70s, low humidity, and clouds to...

Hi all, This weekend I plan to apply c6 Matte dash to my new maverick. I want to give it the best chance of adhesion. I have a few interior cleaners to choose from and im wondering which makes the most sense in terms of residue etc. Should I follow the clean up with a damp microfiber to...

Hi all, I just picked up a Sand color Ford maverick. I was able to prevent the Dealer from washing it, and the paint is close to pristine. I want to keep it that way. I took it straight to the local pay and spray and did a bucket wash and used a spray coating as a drying aid. (Glassparency...

Hi all, Let me start off by saying KC is one of my favorite brands, so I am a bit biased here. Pol Star is the fabric/textile/leather cleaner from KCX. it has a dilution between 1:20 and 1:5 depending on soiling. . It works well on textiles, helps with odors, and cleans well. I like the...

Hi all, Spring is upon us, and I want to re-coat my GLI and put a coating on my new to me MDX. I have a few coatings in mind and I would love feedback. A few notes: I'd like to avoid water spotting as much as i can. I live in an apartment (for now), and both cars live outside. I have...

I have tried a few glass bottle window coatings on my car, but have either not been happy with the application process, or the durability/water characteristics. About 2 months ago, i applied a single layer of Adams Graphene glass coating to my Acura. I clayed, polished, prepped the glass...

Hi all, My "5 year" apex coating died a year and a half into its run, and ive been using various coatings and sealants ever since. I want to re-coat the car. The paint is in relatively good shape, with a few swirls / very light water spotting in places. My plan is to do a quick polish with Uno...

Hi all, Let me preface this by saying I am reviewing this from a personal use perspective and not as a pro detailer. I Detail my cars for fun. I have used a lot of products over the years and have a reasonable understanding of what most things will do. I knew it was going to snow recently...

Hi all, Let me preface this with a few points. 1. I am not a pro Detailer. I just enjoy keeping my cars looking their best and at times my friends cars. 2. My point of comparison is the Griots G9 with a 6.5 inch backing plate. Any time I get a new to me car, I go a little crazy and add to...

Hi all, Back in November i picked up a black Acura MDX (2019). The paint was swirled like crazy. Ive slowly been working on bringing it back to life. I started with Rupes DA coarse and blue microfiber pad. My second step was Sonax perfect finish on a Yellow wool pad. The car looks much...

Hi all, For once I dont have a bunch of mechanical projects going into the winter. I polished and properly ceramic coated my daily over the summer.now i get to focus on my "other" car. Its a 2014 S4, ive kept the paint decent, but i think it could be better before a 5 year coating. To that...

Hi All, When i bought my car in December, i put Gtechniq C1 on the windshield. Probably the most aggravating application of any product ive ever used. I got a solid 7 months of hydrophobic, but it came with occasional wiper judder, and that horrid application. I am looking for a new option...

Hi all, im wondering if anyone has noticed that certain detailing products seem to attack bugs. Notably I used PNS absolute rinseless wash recently. Its a solid product (though maybe not my favorite rinesless), but I noticed every time i use it, bugs seem to land on my car. There were...
