    Is it better not to wash your car every week? (Your Thoughts)

    I try to regular bucket wash every week or two weeks max if I didn't get to it - weather permitting. In the winter, it's much less due to the northeast cold, and I resort to ONR when I can no longer take it! I do believe regular washing the car is better than leaving dirt on it. It only...

    Windshield Protection

    Original post said rock chips. OPTI-GLASS is the only product I've ever seen advertised to provide some chip/scratch resistance. This is a major difference to rain repellent only type of products that improve visibility in wet conditions. Whether or not it will provide the 'protection'...

    More Devoted Following: BF vs Collinite?

    I've tried both. IME, Blackfire goes on easier and sheets significantly better than Collinite. BF has ability to hide itself - not a good thing (come back later and see spots I missed buffing off). In my book, Blackfire wins because it is a compelte product line and all should be compatible...

    Tire Dressing Recommendations

    On a Continental and Michelin tires, I have tried both Optibond,UTTG, and TufShine. Optibond - consistency is like a lotion/cream - does not sling if properly applied (anything dressing excessively over-applied will cause some sling imo). UTTG - consistency like an oil - the visual effect to...

    Bf CS or reload

    What I like about BFCS is that I already got a base of BFWD on, and BFCS or BFPS is just going to add more, maintain, or replace what is diminished.

    thanks. DP Coating may be perfect for those areas which one doesn't want to or can't polish or work on anyways, such as the underbody cladding or bumper and heavily creviced areas.

    Up Close & Personal: Detailer's Paint Coating

    I'm a die hard Blackfire fan. I do BFWD once or twice a year, and follow BFWD with crystal seal as needed and BFPS after most washes. What I want to know is if Detailer's Paint Coating will provide a better base lasting longer and providing better release of contaminents than BFWD or...

    Polishing headlights with an AIO - will it remove the factory UV coating?

    I wonder if Optimum opti-lens would be product for you. I have used plastx and tried various sealants on headlights after yellowing and it comes back in a few months. On one hand Opti-lens is not cheap, but on the other hand it may save you time from having to polish again.

    My Advice for Drying a Car

    The problem that I run into when drying is that I will invariably run into a spot (crevices are notorious) where I missed washing. So for me, it's important to use as many sections of the waffle weave folded and multiple towels and not re-use a side. I think metrovac is great for drying too...

    My Bittersweet Experience with Tuf Shine

    I'm sorry to hear about your experience with Tufshine. I have used Tufshine on different tires and got acceptable results. I believe not only condition of tire, but brand (materials) can contribute to the success or failure.
