I will admitt to one quirky habit when washing my vehicles. Do my washing in my driveway. My garage is integral to my house which means there is just a wall that separates my basement from my garage. My basement happens To be finished and also contains my laundry room which I also use during...

In December-March will many times switch from rinseless washing to traditional two bucket wash. This time period is when our cars get much dirtier. In an effort to keep things simple was wondering about the following.Using a pump sprayer to do a pre soak with the same wash soap that's in my wash...

Curious about a fairly new rinseless wash which as title says is Hero. Is it significantly better than all the other well known rinseless washes? Because it is priced as a premium product and is almost double the cost of other good rinseless washes. Admittedly I am skeptical of the car care...

Looking for a smaller pump sprayer, such as an IK multi Pro 2 just for rinsing wheels and tires after scrubbing with wheel and tire cleaner when not using a hose. Also of course to rinse off same prior to applying the wheel and tire cleaners. Not looking for a foamer. The obvious choices are...

I recently bought an IK Pro 12 mostly to use for pre soaking during washes. Nice piece of equipment. One issue I have noticed is the wand hose becomes loose especially were it connects to the bottom of the tank. Several times before I have noticed the hose fitting is loose, half of the presoak...

Wanted to pass along this deal I got for anyone that is interested. I got (delivered) two rinseless wash sponges for $4.00. Can't recall exact price but the delivered price was between $4.00 & $5.00. I got this deal at Ali Express and may have been a first time buyers deal. They did offer some...

So if I apply an SIO2 wax or sealant and then during maintenance washes use a drying aid should that drying aid be an SIO2 based product as well. What if anything would happen if the drying aid was not ceramic based?

So I just used some 1500, then 2500, then Meguiars 105 followed by 205 on my 2013 Tacoma head lights. This is first time they ever had this treatment and although it lives outdoors 24/7/365, they were really only mildly hazy. They cleaned up quite nicely. So I then contemplated treating them...

Wanted to share the following with the folks that frequent this site as can't think of anyone else that would know what I was talking about much less give a hoot. I just bought a brand new IK Multi Pro 12 off of one of those resale websites and it was local to me so I just picked it up. Didn't...

Would like to hear some others take on their routines. I do both rinseless washes and traditional 2 bucket contact washes depending on which vehicle and other factors. For the rinseless washes I use the sponge and for the traditional shampoo washes I prefer wash mitts. For both methods I use...

Kind of have an idea on doing maintenance washing of the fabric convertible top on my Mustang. Now this top is freshly treated with Aerospace 303 Fabric. Trying to avoid using a hose as rest of car is washed with ONR. So my method would be pretreat the top with ONR 128-1 in a pump sprayer. After...

Want to try prerinsing with ONR when washing my daily drivers via the two bucket method with car soap.Especially this time of year when they get driven on slushy roads etc.On my other vehicles I do rinseless method with ONR but they don't come out in Winter. Anyway would like to hear opinions on...

Forgive my ignorance but I have a couple questions about Zaino products. 1. Are there any other products that work as Z5 does. By that I am referring to the ability of the product to fill minor swirls and scratches without having to do a traditional polishing with a DA polisher. 2. When using Z5...

Was wondering if there is any reason that one could not use single stage paint on a base/clear paint job that has a few chips in it. I am referring to single stage paint that is same paint code/color as the base clear. If fact would it not be easier to not have to apply two separate products?
