    Tree Sap

    Hey guys - So on Saturday I spent 7 hours detailing my SUV and had it looking fantastic. Finished it with some CarPro Reflect and a coat of Mez Power Lock. Amazing combo. Anyway, my wife took the SUV for an hour and came back with tree sap all over it. UGH!! All the drops are very tiny but...

    Post Wash Product

    Both vehicles have great paint at this point. My truck was lacking but I just did a two-stage polish and two coats of Powerlock and it looks fantastic. I wish I had some photos to share but I forgot to take them. I actually notice a difference when I use a detalier/wax after a wash. It brings...

    Finishing Polish

    Good to know. Seeing how Reflect is the cheaper option I'll probably go that route. Are there any tricks to applying it? Thanks!

    Finishing Polish

    Hey guys - I've been searching for a great finishing polish and was hoping for your recommendation. I plan to use M205 and but then wanted to follow it up with a ultra polish to really make the paint pop. So far from what I've seen... one of the best is SF4500. Are there any other good options...

    Sealant and Wax

    Hey guys - I'm new to this and have a question regarding sealants and wax. I've noticed some, not all, people use a combination of both so they get protection and the look they want. What I have also noticed is usually people who use both use an expensive sealant and a top end wax. Can you...

    New Car - Need Product Advice

    The paint is clean. I did a bag test on the paint this weekend when I washed the car and it felt great. I don't see any swirling so I'm thinking a non-abrasive polish and then either the Menzerna or Wolfgang. After seeing photos and reviews of both products.. I don't think that I can go wrong...

    New Car - Need Product Advice

    Thanks for the link to the tutorial. Ok, I thought people used an AIO basically as their polisher. At least that's what I gathered from reading the forums. Although as with anything.. everyone has their own opinion. It did confuse me why people use AIO and then sealant. I do plan on purchasing a...

    New Car - Need Product Advice

    Honestly, just from reading the forum it sounded like it's what most people used. AIO to clean and slightly protect.. then a sealant for protection and a wax for that great deep look. It confused me why people use a AIO and sealant but as I said... just kinda seemed what people use.
