    Headlight plastic stone marred

    Good evening...looking at purchasing a used Jetta GLI and it appears that it drove through a sand storm on a few occasions. I am confident I can make the paint look acceptable with my Porter Cable but the headlights concern me. This is a 2016 model and they are clear, but when you run your...

    2004 Mach 1 Mustang

    Good read Mike...I guess what has confused me is I have read many of the product reviews on autogeek about various sealants and have noticed several people talk about applying a final wax application on top of what should be a last step sealant. Not that I am not happy with Wolfgang 3.0 from...

    2004 Mach 1 Mustang

    If I go with Collinite's 845, are there any detail mists that can be used in conjunction with it? The car isn't driven in the rain so my bug removal and light dust touch up has generally been done with Meguires Ultimate Quick Detailer. Just want to make sure they will work together or is there...

    2004 Mach 1 Mustang

    Thanks...the low miles are the result of a six day a week job(doesn't get driven to work) in the summer and three and seven year old girls that demand quite a bit of Daddy time. Don't even think I put 1,000 miles on it this year. No harm...probably not depreciating much anymore.

    2004 Mach 1 Mustang

    I think the issue is the fact I haven't been finishing with a wax...just been using Wolfgang 3.0 and that is it. I have about half a jar of P21s remaining...should I try that first or is something like Dodo Juice or Signature Series 2 going to provide a better finish? Thanks for the helping a...

    Will SS2 work well on top of the Wolfgang 3.0 sealant if have?

    2004 Mach 1 Mustang

    Greetings...about 5 years ago I got the paint on my 2004 Mach 1 about perfect with using XMT products and finished with P21S wax for a few months, tried Zaino Z-2 for a few months, and most recently have been using Wolfgang 3.0 sealant on it. I have been happy with Wolfgang but wondering if...

    Scratched the Mach

    I couldn't wait until Monday for my Mernzerna SIP to show up so I tried my neighbors Pinnacle Advanced Swirl Remover tonight. I used an orange pad as directed and set the speed to #5 on the Porter Cable. I broke it down for at least 10 minutes. Did pretty well on the scratches but still not...

    Scratched the Mach

    I did do one dawn wash and went from there. The bottom line is think I put it on too thick and never really got it buffed off completely nor did I probably allow it to dry long enough. When i applied it extremely lightly the other day it looked pretty good and in the sunlight I could tell it...

    Scratched the Mach

    With a Lake Country white pad and the porter cable 7424 can unfixable damage be done with Menzerna SIP if I use the product as directed? I am kind of a perfectionist with the car and although I don't want to get it repainted I would consider it over living with scratches if I do damage it...

    Scratched the Mach

    I like your car...I am a big fan of the Azure Blue too. My color and yours are my favorite colors on the car. What does LSP mean? I am a detail noobie. My mach is the first car I have done any serious work on. I have spent way more hours on it that I want to admit to my wife. Originally...

    Scratched the Mach

    Thanks for the info...for the finishing polishing I am confident I can get it looking pretty good with either the XMT #2 or #1. With the SIP should I expect to get some micro marring with the mustang's finish? Also, I kind of figured I had been putting the Zaino on too thick. I just did...

    Scratched the Mach

    Here is the history of the paint on my torch red 04 Mach 1 Mustang. I purchased the car used with 5,000 miles on it three years ago and the car now has 10,000 miles. The paint was decent when I got it, but under parking lot lights noticed some clearcoat scratches. I ordered a Porter Cable from...
