    Freshly painted body panels okay to apply Zaino Z2 or Collinite 845

    I recently had the hood of my Wrangler repainted. I specifically asked the body shop owner how long to wait and mentioned I had read not to wax/seal new paint. His answer was no need to wait anymore. Modern paints and clear coats don't need a waiting period anymore. I still waited 30 days...

    BMW Dakota Leather (2006)-How to soften and rejuvenate?

    2006 BMW 330i. It was not well cared for before I bought it. Leather is very "firm." A leather piece under the seat is very soft and supple. I realize this is the lower end of leather and coated. How can I soften up the leather seats? Will Leatherique Rejuvenator work on this?

    Coating for Boat Glass?

    My wakeboard boat spends all day with water spray on the windshield and I end up with lots of water spots. I have used Rain-X in the past with mediocre results. I also used an AIO with slightly better results. Would a coating help? We are rarely going over 30mph with wake boarding and...

    Need More Cut-Tried HD Speed with LC CCS Orange

    Thank you for the help. I ended up using the Ultimate Compound I already have with an orange pad. Was surprised how well it worked. I also tried the WG Swirl Remover but had better success with the UC. I followed the UC with Wolfgang glaze and a green pad. I got the result i wanted, but a...

    I just ran out of Ultima Tire & Trim Guard Plus. Been using it on my Jeep hard top and Tonneau cover (BAKFlip) with good results for a few years. Looking for another trim protectant, given these are large areas to dress. Coating suitable for these rough surfaces? WETS?

    How to mute the metallic flake?

    I used to use Zaino. It definitely muted the metallic flake on my Acura. I later switched to BFWD and the flakes popped again (which I wanted).

    Poilishing ? black truck

    I just detailed my F-150, Tuxedo Black paint over the weekend. I tried 3D Speed for the first time, using a white lake country ccs pad. I used an orange pad in a few places for a little more correction. I topped with Collinite 885-Fleetwax Paste for winter protection. I loved the results and...

    Vision Investments, LLC Announces the Acquisition of Palm Beach Motoring Group

    Re: Big announcement today! Having worked business deals for 20 years, this is spot on. Of course "something" is going to change, otherwise there would be no reason for the acquisition. New owners ALWAYS have some different ideas, methods etc from prior owners. Profit motives also change...

    Love me some Collinite 845

    I had BFWD on my tuxedo black F150 for 1 month. Then topped it with 845 for winter protection and a long road trip. Looked beautiful. I have no idea if applying 845 removes or diminished the BFWD, but the look and protection have been long-lasting.

    Background too bright. VB mechanic, go check out jeepforum.com. They just did a similar upgrade with lots of complaints about the background color being too bright (white). That forum was changed to a light grey background and much much better now.

    Absolutely no business coming my way!! WHY?

    Sounds like you are waiting for customers to come to you rather than you pounding the pavement for customers. Go to a business complex and go door to door. I work in a business complex. A few years ago a mobile detailer came to every business in the complex every Thursday. We often turned...
