    CarPro Reload as Standalone Sealant - 2 Massive Fails...Any thoughts?

    I know how Reload is marketed towards a sealant however, I feel its more of a "topper" type of product. It will certainly add lots of gloss to any vehicle but for me personally I don't think there is much longevity to Reload. I will use it for those vehicles that have coatings. I have have...

    Sonax interior cleaner vs Sonax Sonax Multi star all purpose cleaner

    I have and use both products and I can say that with The Dashboard Cleaner ( love the smell) I use that more for cars that are well maintained or not too dirty. For most of my customers vehicles I go with MultiStar. I have found that 1:50 (product:Water) has worked really well for me in just...

    P&S/Renny Doyle Double Black Interior Products (Terminator, Carpet Bomber, Finisher) - Feedback?

    I used both Terminator and Carpet Bomber mostly on the lighter side unless I have a carpet that is heavily soiled. What what will do is spray terminator and let that sit for 3-5 then work it in. Same goes for Carpet Bomber. Finisher spray and let sit.

    P&S/Renny Doyle Double Black Interior Products (Terminator, Carpet Bomber, Finisher) - Feedback?

    Just as a reminder that when suing the Double Black line its best to use all three as a three stage process. Terminator will be your step 1 followed by carpet bomber as step 2 and finally Finisher for your final spray treatment. You will have you best results with all three but as you can see...

    Seems like a scary email, how much would you charge....

    There must a certain line one must draw when it comes what jobs to pass on. First and foremost you should always keep health and safety in mind at all times. When dealing with bodily fluids I would never recommend taking on those unless you have all the proper biohazard safety equipment and...

    Flex 3 inch polisher

    If you have the Flex 3" then get the Flex pads as they would very well with the polisher. Be careful with the small one inch pads as its very easy to put a hologram or get the pad on edge.

    Collinite 845 not working

    Pollen is an absolute beading and sheeting killer even after a heavy rain. Try washing the vehicle and seeing if the beading and sheeting return.

    B&S urotec blue foam pad on flex 3401

    Nope those are not made for forced DA like the flex 3401. Should only be used with the longer throw machines like the flex XFE or the Rupes line

    New Rupes pads and polishes?

    Hmmmm a forced DA like the Flex 3401 this will be interesting to see the comparison. My 3401 is an absolute workhorse and is my usual go to machine for my daily polisher. I have always been a huge fan or the forced rotation machine (still waiting for the other forced rotation Flex...

    Prepping PPF for Cquartz UK

    My suggestion for the film is to do an eraser wipe down of the film. Do a small test spot to make sure you don't have any adverse effects on the film. Also ask the customer if they know what kind of film is on the car.

    Hazy/Cloudy paint with M201

    Sounds like you have some soft paint in this car. My question for you is what kind of white pad are you using (make &model)? Can you bump down the speed even more like 800 or lower? Factory paint or custom paint ? Single stage or basecoat cleaercoat? With the haze it sounds like to me...
