Had a bit of a melt-down today. I ‘think’ I’m on the right path. Guidance / advice / encouragement appreciated. Garage Queen. PPG Base / Clear Jet Black. I corrected the bejeezus out of this paint last season and applied 2 coats of Wolfgang Spray Ceramic Sealant. This is the liquid in the...

Placed an order on March 22. Everything showed as in stock and ready to ship. Payed with the bank account linked to my PayPal acct, money transferred immediately. Received a confirmation email - but no shipping email. Logged into my account and the order does not appear as a current or pending...

Those familiar with both, sell me on one or the other…

Just coated my black car with Wolfgang Spray Ceramic Coating after 2-Step correction and prep with Wolfgang Perfect Finish. I backed the car out into the Sun for final walk-around and catching any haze or high spots. Extremely pleased with the results. So, is there any advantage to applying a...

Went down the Auto Detailing rabbit hole a few months back watching youtube videos on the Kamikaze line of polishes and coatings. At one point, I stumbled across a glaze type product which I am 90+% sure was also form a Japanese line - but it is not a Kamikaze product. Anyway, it was super...

Just ordered some brand new re-production plastic lenses to replace the scratched, cloudy lenses on the dash gauges of my 73 Trans Am. The re-pops look really good - but several of the reviews say that they scratch very easily. Is it OK to use a ceramic coating on clear plastic? I know that’s...

Wow. I’ve done traditional waxes (at several price points) I’ve done synthetic sealants (can’t beat Wolfgang Deep Gloss) and I’ve done consumer ceramics. I have a new car that will be my weekend cruise nite - local show car. My only hesitation to a full ceramic is that when they do show...

Griot’s Garage used to make a product called ‘Pre-Wax Cleanser’ which was marketed for use as a final wipe down before applying wax or sealant. It is now discontinued, and I have been unable to find any NOS on any retailers shelves. I absolutely loved this product. It was clear and had no...

Relatively experienced weekend detailer. Decent paint correction experience. Good tools, good products. Correcting black old-school base/clear on my weekend only garage queen. Used Flex 3401 with Orange Light Cut LC pad and Wolfgang’s Uber Compound followed by Rupes 15mm, White Rupes Pad and...

Weekend / fair weather only cruise - local show car. Just finished 8+ hrs of 2-stage correction. I’m going old school wax with this car. Teetering between Blackfire Midnight Sun Paste + Blackfire Spray Carnauba and Wolfgang Fuzion Paste + Fuzion Spray. Opinions? Preferences?

Weekend cruiser / fair weather only / local show car. Just finished 8+ hrs of 2-stage correction on black base/clear finish. Decided to go old school and hit her with Midnight Sun Paste Wax. What is the difference / consensus between the Blackfire Spray Carnauba Wax and the Blackfire Spray...

Just finished 2-stage correction on a black old-school base coat / clear coat painted hot rod. Looks better than I had expected. I will have paint film installed behind all 4 wheels, and strategically on the spoilers and front nose where rock ships are most likely to occur. Then I need to...

Struggling with correction on 2016 MB with Scratch Resistant Clear Coat. Many compounds and polishes that work flawlessly on traditional single stage and Base/Clear finishes simply do not touch the high ceramic content scratch resistant clear coat on newer Mercedes vehicles. I have used 3M SRC...

Just wondering what the moderators and members would think of a place on this forum for members to trade or exchange products? For example, I may have a bottle of ‘X’ that I tried and - for whatever reason - it just didn’t work for me. But that might be another members absolute favorite...

Looking for the ‘current’ best / softest MF towel that will NOT leave lint all over the paint. Particularly - what seems to be the current consensus best choice for leveling high spots as ceramic flashes? I can imagine the nightmare that a linting MF towel would cause while buffing out /...

I know that when applying a dedicated ceramic 'coating' your applicator is good for one application. Period. After the application, the coating hardens on the applicator - just like it does on your paint. But what about these new(er) SiO2 spray sealants? Do you need to discard the MF towel...

Mid winter polish and re-seal of the wife-mobile.

Has anyone out there found a microfiber towel that does NOT lint? I have dumped too much $$$ into very expensive MF towels advertised not to lint only to have lint all over any panel the towel touches. I'm no penny pincher - I'll drop the dough no problem IF the towel doesn't leave lint all over...

Wolfgang Convert. Dumping - trashing my entire cabinet of X-brand products and replacing with Wolfgang equivalent. Absolutely love the Liquid Seal product. So easy to apply and such sharp, clear reflections. Considering properly corrected paint and wiped down with a pre-wax cleanser or IPA, and...

Ive seen several of Mike's threads where he hits the entire vehicle with WG Uber Compound and then finishes with WG Finishing Glaze - essentially skipping over the WG Total Swirl Remover. I started my detailing addiction with the 3M Compound/Swirl Remover/Ultrafina trio of products in that...
