Thanks for the quick replies everyone. @DUBLOWS6, the paint is smooth to the touch

Hi all! I recently removed the black vinyl wrap on the roof of my wife's 2018 Toyota Prius with white tri-color paint. It was on the car for 4+ years. Shortly after doing so, I noticed that the paint became yellow and discolored. I tried IronX, Clay, light polish, etc. but nothing has helped so...

Thanks for the quick responses guys. Just checked my cabinet and I actually have the Wolfgang Perfekt Vision Glass Polish on-hand (Wolfgang Perfekt Vision Glass Polish polishes and restores auto glass windshields and windows.). Is that about the same as the product you mentioned? I can apply it...

Hi All, The windshield of my girlfriend's Prius gets hazy in the morning per the below image. When using the wipers the haze still remains. It sits on the driveway of our house here in South Florida. Yesterday I did the following but it hasn't helped. - Wash - Clay windshield (wasn't bad...

Thanks Mike! I will use a coarse foam or wool pad with my DA as you describe.

No it’s just topical polishing without cerium oxide. No scratches. Looking for the right pad. Thanks.

BUMP

Hey All! Want to use my Rupes LHR15 Mark II polisher with some Wolfgang Perfekt Vision Glass Polish to polish out my windshield. Was hoping someone could give some pad and process recommendations. Also what's the best way to prime the pad for this kind of work? I've used this polish by hand...

Thanks guys! I went ahead and ordered the Colourlock kit. Will give it a go! Still love Black Label products and have a huge collection too! (Car wash, pad cleaner spray, and tire cleaner are among my favorites)

@Bruno. Yes Tesla originally had real leather in the Model S early years before switching to vegan for all models. Tesla Moves to Fully Vegan, Leather-Free Interiors in Model 3 and Upcoming Model Y.

Thanks for the quick reply guys! So should I use this immediately on new leather? Also how often do you typically retreat?

Hi All, Got a 2015 Tesla Model S with "NextGen" Napa leather seats. Been using the SwissVax Cleaner and Conditioner products mostly and they work ok but don't seem to help much for friction/creasing of the leather and need to be reapplied every few months. Tesla replaced my front passenger seat...

Thanks guys. I will maybe try the 22ple or Pinnacle.

Any other thoughts on which clay is the least aggressive for use on a coated vinyl wrap?

Thanks all. It was just some people spray painting their mailbox. My car was parked maybe 40+ feet away but with the wind I guess some paint particles made it over. I'm looking to confirm what the lightest/softest/smoothest clay option would be. I know the Blue Megs is less aggressive than...

Hi All, Got a vinyl wrap on my Tesla and last week I noticed that it picked up some paint overspray in some areas from work being done in the neighborhood. I clayed the windshield which came out fine. Used Megs Professional Blue clay. Wondering if I should also use that on my vinyl wrap or some...

Thanks for the quick reply. Yes most of my glass towels are waffle weave. Some are other style glass towels from AG.

Hi all, Curious if anyone has tips on washing glass microfiber towels to not leave lint on them. Just wash on cold with detergent / microrenew and airfluff in dryer? I've looked over the microfiber cleaning article here but it doesn't call out glass towels specifically and I feel like I've seen...

Thanks guys. This is helpful. It's on the passenger side. Will see what he wants to do.

Hey all, My buddy picked up these scratches on his front windshield. You can feel them a little bit but the glass isn't actually cracked. Any suggestions? I've looked through Mike's polishing guide and other pages but not sure what is best. Can I try some heavy cut polish by hand to start? Thanks!
