Purchased a Black 2014 Acura MDX in 2017. Been a long time coming but finally decided to approach the front bumper that had a lot of bug damage etched into plastic. I wish I had taken a picture of the before but did not and will not forget to take before pictures in the future. I have just...

...and it worked great. Can someone shed light on what the make up of a car wash is that qualifies it as a rinseless wash? My vehicle is my daily driver which is a silver 2004 Sienna that has just had iron remover, clay barred, and McKees37 AIO last week. I do this 2 times a year. I had skipped...

I am wondering if anyone has a method to clean this trim up. It looks to me as if the finish is no longer there. I have tried Mothers VLR and it did nothing. I tried Gyeon Trim and it also did nothing. I was going to try a heat gun but figured I’d ask for some help on this one. I did read brake...

Hey Mike, I did a complete paint correction on my wife's daily driver which is a 2014 black Acura MDX. I also touched up several rock chips and I will say that I am very happy with the results. I used Acura touch up pen, acetone to wipe off excess, 2000 sand paper, then 3000, then Meguires...

I applied Meguiars UFF to my wifes dd MDX last week. Last night she was driving through the country to spend time with her mom and looked like a million bugs ended up on the front cap and windshield. With diluted McKees37 N-914 at 1:128 all I did was spray it on and within a few seconds wiped...

Does anyone have any recommendation on repairing CA wheel? The car is a 2014 MDX. The weird thing about these rims is that the interior of each fork is metal flake and the outer sections of the fork including the outer rim of the wheel is filled with lines but no metal flake, sort of a two tone...

Has anyone actually done comparisons on dark vehicles to be able to tell (I know, subjectively here) that one product works better than another? Example 3M Perfect-It- Foam Polishing Pad Glaze, or the Black Waxes, etc. On my wife's dd black Acura MDX I currently use Megs 105/205, Megs #7, Megs...

Hey Mike, In the following thread you stated that you did not recommend using M205 with M101. Could you please elaborate? Also, how do I make a post linking to another thread and it show as a title instead of a link? Thanks, Ron...

I was using 3" GG orange polishing pads with M105 and LC white thin pro pads with M205 today and noticed that on the curvy part of my MDX by the rear tail lights my PC would stall at spinning until I adjusted my angle and then at times that did not seem to help much. I could have pulled out my...

Hey Mike, On my black 2014 Acura MDX brake rotors there is a rust colored ring running the inner circumference of the rotor. My Sienna has the same colored ring, and my Maxima has a thicker ring. Have you or anyone else reading this thread ever detailed that ring by either coating it with a...

On my black 2014 Acura MDX brake rotors there is a rust colored ring running the inner circumference of the rotor. My Sienna has the same colored ring, and my Maxima has a thicker ring. Has anyone ever detailed that ring by either coating it with a high temp paint, or something else. While my...

I did not want to hijack another's thread but would like to get some opinions here: I have UC and believe it is very user friendly and works quite well but there were some water spots that the UC did not seem to want to get rid of even after 2 complete cycles of 6 passes. This is when I moved...

If I want to remove my latest wax (2 weeks ago) and compound/polish further to remove water spots/fine scratches that I missed what is the best way to do this? My first thoughts are to use Paint Prep spray (like Griots Garage) or Meguiars M205 with a polishing pad. But, is the M205 necessary...

Today I used my HF 6" DA with orange Hexlogic pads on my 2006 Toyota Sienna. I have definitely neglected this van over the years so it as in pretty bad shape with deep scratches, and too many paint chips on the front hood and bumper to mention. Plus, since I bought my wife the new Acura, and I...

Is there a downside to using a different branded polish and wax over a certain compound? For example, if I am trying to remove some deeper scratches and swirls from an '06 Sienna with Ultimate Compound with a PC7424XP and orange medium cutting foam pad and after a few applications still not...

Hey Mike, and all other forum members who wish to reply, Is there a specific science or reason why you use so many different products to remove swirls and scratches? Example being on one of your videos you use a Pinnacle, and on another you use a Wolfgang product. For me, I usually stick with...

I put some Mother's car wash in my foam gun and went to spraying on my black Acura. Foamed pretty good and I thought heck yeah, this is going great. Then started to wash the car using 2 bucket method with Mother's car wash. The problem began when the sun came out and I could not finish washing...

I cleaned my windows today and then applied Pinnacle's Glass Sealant with a microfiber pad. I let it sit for 15 or so minutes. When I wiped it off using a microfiber towel I noticed some areas was harder to wipe off and then some areas streaked. Could applying too much provide these results? I...

My regular wash on my 2014 Black Acura MDX consists of the 2 bucket method using either Mothers Car Wash or Meguiars Gold Class. During a period of several days of rain I will be using McKee's 37 N-14 diluted as a waterless wash. I have been using Chemical Guys Hybrid V7 as a drying aid/quick...

Just wanted to say hello to all and thank this forum and all the users for posting great info. Ron
