    CQUK removal process

    So, I got rear ended this Wednesday on my way to work. Damage is very minimal - indentation in the bumper, micro cracks in the paint.

    Essensse as a primer

    Hello folks. I wonder how many of you pro’s are using essense as a primer? Do you do a wipe down right after polishing or just put the coating on the top right away? Or perhaps wait a few hours to let the oils evaporate? I had a weird experience with it. Polished the hood of my pilot and put...

    Sonax PF+Essense+CQUK

    Figure I’ll test this combo and Polished the hood on my Honda Pilot. It was pretty badly swirled as per my standard. Pilot paint is totally different from my Civic’s - it literally took two quick passes with orange force pad and PF to get the paint pretty much 99% corrected. Clear is soft as...
