    Best products for new cars that go through automatic car washes frequently?

    Well since you cant wash in direct sunlight or rain, this means you have to have a foam cannon, over head cover, and it NEVER rains in your area sure, but that's not the case in Michigan. It rains at LEAST twice a week, EVERY week for starters, secondly, when it's not raining it's direct...

    Best products for new cars that go through automatic car washes frequently?

    This is it? The most relevant and important question on the entire board and it gets 5 posts? lol. I want to know more, as I now don't have time to spend 4 hours hand washing my car every week. I was told by a guy that said touchless washes can be harsher because the soaps have to be...

    Wax safe windshield washer fluid?

    Ok so what about the waxes though? If there are alcohols in the washer fluid, wont that strip the wax on the car? I ask because this car has headlight washers and they spray the fluid all over the car when you hit the windshield wipers. Does common wiper solvent strip wax?

    Quick California Duster question.

    Ok, I see that it's pretty much frowned upon to use this ancient piece of technology, but my question is, how much worse can this be over a microfiber towel brushing off the dust instead?

    Headlight polishing: how deep?

    Had the vehicle's headlights polished and there was a touch of that oxidation left over that I could see, that he said would be "taken care of by the sealer" kind of like when you wax an oxidized black car it looks "newer" until the wax wears off of course, and I wasn't fully satisfied with...

    Glass specific towels question for you guys

    I received a few towels made specifically for glass as presents a few years back and I must say they work pretty good. They're those towels you see that have no nap, and are kind of shiny in a way. But from what I read on here, I'm seeing that most use a white waffle micro fiber for their...

    Wax safe windshield washer fluid?

    Does anyone know of any wiper fluid that is easier on wax or windshield coatings/treatments by chance? I hear waxing the windshield is kind of pointless because the wipers and it's wiper fluid just wash it away in a few days anyways. If this is true, are there any known fluids that are wax or...

    Acronym frustration on this board lol

    [B] Acronyms never have a place lol. They only have their place to people that can't type, or spell. Period (laughing out loud lol). I've never had a problem typing out what I feel entirely. Honestly, even the average typist only saves a second or less by converting a word or two to...

    Review: Griots Fine Glass Polish - How to remove water spots and road film off car glass

    I've read that some manufacturers throw another coating on the outside of the glass for more protection and sound deadening. Is there a way to test for this?

    Buick Grand National One step polish.

    Even better is a Grand National on stock wheels; :) Could you have used a glaze under a good sealant in lieu of cutting so much?

    Need something for black plastic on mirrors

    Huh? You said Dlux doesn't last, but then you say the only way to get it off was polishing.... So... lol. I'm lost. If something's so good that you need compound to get it off, doesn't mean it's awesome and it IS lasting?

    Review: Griots Fine Glass Polish - How to remove water spots and road film off car glass

    I'm confused on abrasive polish on glass. How are you not thinning out or ruining the thin plastic coating that coats all windshields to protect it from spraying thousands of little glass squares all over the place when it's impacted? And what ever happened to "Glass Scrub"? I can't find it...

    Acronym frustration on this board lol

    Would it be possible to do away with acronyms on this board? lol. I've taught myself in my job that is acronym intensive to not use them whatsoever when typing because of the massive amount of confusion they ALWAYS create; especially if another group has the same acronym but different meaning...
