    Questions from a newbie...

    Hey guys, I was unable to do my car last week but did get my dad's truck done. Amazing what these products can do. I do have a question about my car. I have some light scratches on my hood, roof and trunk lid. They appears to just be surface scratches. What's the best OCT product to fix these...

    Questions from a newbie...

    I got the terry applicator pads, are these ok for the DG stuff? I saw MF ones but they were double the price and did not think they were that necessary.

    Sounds good, I wish my wheel covers came off easily but you have to remove lugnuts and all. I will test it and see what it does and if to string I'll dilute it a bit. Sent from my SPH-L710 using Tapatalk 4 Beta

    Questions from a newbie...

    I did read about it, seems a little odd when you first read about it lol. I'll be sure to grab those as well. I know I asked earlier but I don't think you awnsered. Are MF towels good for interior detailing as well? The rain seems to have stopped but there's a 60% chance of rain today and...

    Thanks again, I'll head to the stores in the morning but my detailing might be delayed a day or two. Its rained for a month straight and have had about 15in in that time.

    Is it OK to use the clay on headlights as well? And for the plastic chrome can that be clayed, sealed and waxed? Sent from my SPH-L710 using Tapatalk 4 Beta

    Something Painful to Watch From a Car "Expert"

    Can't believe I just wasted my time watching that lol, I'm no expert but even I know that he has no clue. That sponge he used did more damage to the paint than anything. I hate that people like this actually have TV shows... I'm so glad I stumbled across this site. It has changed my whole...

    Questions from a newbie...

    Will do, I was hoping to get a shopping list together before I venture out tomorrow. I hate shopping blind. I've pretty much decided on the Mother's Golds Clay Kit, how many times can you use the clay before it needs to be replaced? Sorry if I am being a pain, I just don't want to waste money...

    Ok guys... @MarkD51 would you mind putting together a list for me? I want to detail the interior and on the outside I want to clay, seal and wax as well as get my tires taken care of as well as the engine bay. Also need to get the water spots off the glass but I can use the clay for that...

    Questions from a newbie...

    Well I took a closer look at my tires and as you said, Armor All causes rubber to crack. My tires look like they have been sitting in a desert for the past month. I know there is not much I can do to repair that but is there are conditioner of some sort that will slow down the process?

    Questions from a newbie...

    Great info as always. Well if I get to the car wash early enough I can use it as shade. Since my interior is pretty much plastic and vinyl just use the vinyl cleaner on these with a microfiber towel? Do you have any tricks for cup holders? I hate cleaning them and their a pain. Will these leave...

    Oh and I read somewhere you should start on the interior first then do the exterior. Does this matter? Sent from my SPH-L710 using Tapatalk 4 Beta
