The label says it can be used on leather. I haven’t tried it, wondering if anyone else has and how they like it.

Whink is my last ditch effort when all else fails. It’s acid so use gloves. I put it on a paper towel to apply it. Then wipe it off with windex. The windex seems to neutralize the acid. Then buff or polish the glass.

I’ve used Lexol cleaner & conditioner for years but haven’t done any leather for a while. Now we have 2 vehicles with leather to take care of. Is there anything better out there that isn’t a real chore to use?

Yes mine was a bit loose as well. Guessing there is a seal on top of bottle or it would have leaked during shipping.

It looks like time will not allow me to do all of my truck at same time. I have to clay, correct & polish each panel after work so I may have to do it in sections which I’m guessing will take about 2 weeks. Will the coating be good for that long once I open it? Longer if I can’t get it all done...

Or wait a week or two and the Poxy will be gone, or close to it. looks good when fresh but not very durable.

Thank You Mike!! You did not need to send me that backing plate but I am glad you did. Looks like it may be a while before they’re back in stock. You said it was a used plate but it looks darn near new to me. Your help, advice and customer service are many of the reasons I support this forum and...

Prius came out nice! I think the only person that likes the new Chevy trucks is the one who designed that ugly thing.

I would think any quality extension cord would work as long as the wires are the same gauge or one size bigger. Cut the female end off and install it. It may void your warranty.

I’m a bit disappointed in how long it lasted. I think it was a combination of deterioration through time and using it. Being a hobbyist I do not use it that often but love it when I do. I guess I will have to call tomorrow and order one of the ones Mike found. They still show out of stock in...

I wet sanded my old gel coat with the Trizact 3000 discs on my Porter Cable before I polished it. Big difference and a lot less work than compounding before polishing. The Marine 31 captains one step compound/polish is good stuff.

One of my friends wants to add a 3” polisher to his collection. I have the Rupes mini and am happy with it. Flex & Griots have come out with new models since I bought my mini. I am not familiar with their 3” tools. I’m guessing he can’t go wrong with any of them. I do like the trigger on the...

Is there any more info on when they will be back in stock? All this time on my hands is making me miss using my 3401.

Any updates on when this will be available ? The store still says out of stock.

Marine 31 UV50 coating. Bit time consuming to apply/remove but looks good with supposed long term durability. Just used it on my 30 year old gel coat. Looks almost new.

WD-40 works well on tar

Won’t be soon enough. The Velcro and foam separated yesterday. Crazy how quick it goes south once it starts deteriorating.

I did the coated hull side with the 3000 Trizact. It did not remove it but it did get rid of the tacky feel. I hit it with the buffer afterwards and it was shiny. I could probably leave it but will most likely put a coat on it from the new bottle since I still have to coat the rest of the hull...

You can do it with the orbital but it will be a bit more work. Most use the rotary to get the worst oxidation & scuffs out and finish with the orbital. If your gel coat is in decent shape, the orbital may do what you want just fine.

I will let ya know. You will still have to remove the wet sand marks but I would think it would be easier than compounding the coating off.
