    best wAX OR SEALANT

    Recently had the pleasure of using the Wolfgang Deep Gloss Sealant 3.0. What a great product, wipe on, wipe off as Mr. Miyagi says. Truly easy to use and great protection. One other nice feature, is that I use to get dust off the car every 2 to 3 days. Now the dust just doesn't seem to stick.

    Stuck On New Polisher FLEX/RUPES

    I haven't used a flex, but I do own a PC. Bought a rupes BF 21 and later the rupes mini. Since that time I have worked on 3 vehicles, one my daughter abused and have to say the rupes worked great. The 21 is so easy to handle, smooth yet enough power for the work I have done. Never had an issue...

    Rupes Mini or Flex 3401

    I also have the 21 rupes and the mini. I like the 21 for the bigger body panels but use the mini a lot. One of my autos is a 2003 ford tbird, not a tall car, and have used the mini a lot on this vehicle. On my other rides, 2 trucks, I use the 21 more than the mini but it is nice to have the...

Clean, like it was new. Great stuff. For the green crowd, small amount of vinegar with water also...

    Rupes 21 polisher, ISSUE!!!!!!!!?????????

    I have used the rupes 21 and the mini and find that I have not had this issue. Granted have only used these on 2 cars, but I find that as a "newbie" the rupes 21 is extremely easy to use and control and is a great machine. The mini seems a be a bit more of a 'tempestuous child', harder to...

    daily driver

    I have a 2006 ridgeline that is dull, that is the paint is dull. New to detailing but my thought is to start with M205 then a sealant, then a polish. I have a rupes bif foot and would most likely start with a yellow pad for the M205. This sound okay? Or a second thought was to go with the Rupes...
