Thanks for the replies everyone. I'll try to see if I can get some pictures, esp. of the rainbows I was seeing. It's been raining the last several days so I haven't really inspected the car to see if they are still there or not... Thanks for the tips on products to remove the tar.

Hi all, I'm not a complete novice to detailing, but I'm new (only done about 3 jobs so far - just on my own personal cars). I wanted to winterize my car today but I ran into some problems with the prep work, so I've decided to hold off on waxing until I get some answers. Basic info: Car: 2012...

I did use WG Paintwork Polish Enhancer, but applied it by hand. How does that product differ from other polishes? Is it not a true polish?

Thanks for the replies. I think maybe I'll skip the second coat for now. I've got some other things I need to get done today. Maybe if I do anything I'll just go over the hood and front bumper again, since this is the area that takes the most abuse. I'm kind of curious to see how long just...

Hello to Jim. I am new here too. Love your kitty picture. Could you please expound on the above comment? What makes the "optimum lotion polishes" easier to work with? And cheaper is always good, if it works! I don't mind spending the $$ for a superior product, but I'll admit the WGs was a...

Planning on going it by hand for now. Figured it's a small enough car that hopefully it won't be too exhausting. Plus the products themselves are more expensive than I'm used to (only ever bought just basic car cleaner from the auto parts store) and since I'm new to detailing and have yet to...

Hello all, I just got a new-to-me used car. A 2012 Honda Fit. It's a beautiful color, sort of a robin's egg blue (the Honda color is "Blue Raspberry"). I don't imagine there's alot of people detailing Fits, but this car's paint is in really good shape for a used car, so I want to keep it...
