Re: Wolfgang products question's Sounds about right to me. Those are the steps I took. Rinse, wash, clay, rinse, WG TSR, Finishing glaze, and then, finally, the WG DGPS. I took another step, after curing, and applied a nice thin coat of wax.

These look really cool. Battery technology has come a long way, since a few years ago. I suspect the reason they give you 2 batteries is because you can work with one, while charging the other. This way, when one is done, switch out the fresh one, and put the spent one on the charger. Since...

Hey Mike, it's with a heavy heart that I'm not going to be able to make it this time around. Family member passed away...double whammy, unfortunately. Both sadden me. :( Though, I'll keep my spirits high in that I sure hope there is a next time. :) MC.

Nice! :)

I'm in the Jax/St. Augustine area, too, and it's definitely much cooler than a few weeks ago. Not cold, like it was when I lived in NY. Maybe look into amazon for some really good water proof gloves -...

^^Thanks for the info. As for convincing, I meant I have to convince the wife to let me head down that way. But, I understand, completely. :)

One option, of many - https://www.autogeek.net/lake-country-ccs-pack2.html

Hey Mike, what's involved for the people that attend? I just have some convincing to do. :)

Will try that, once this little bottle runs out. Thanks for the suggestion. :)

Man, I wish I could come down...that'd be awesome to see.

With the 303 alone, the tire just had a slight matte finish, no gloss at all. Once I washed the car/tires, the tire itself looked about the same as when it had 303 on it...and then, finally, the latest rendition. I'll see how long it holds up...

Finally had a chance to dress up the tires. Neck muscles have been locked up for a few days, so, did something easy. Anyhow, I bought a sample of the MK37 GTG, and had previously cleaned the tire(s) and applied a small amount of 303. Then, washed the car and cleaned the tires again, and...

Sounds about right. Took me a few hours for my sedan...lots of contours. I was tired, at the end of it all, no doubt!

Having lived in the NE, for many a year, I feel for you guys/gals that still live up there. I don't miss the snow/salt/black ice/the cold...brrr... Sorry, rubbin' it in, ain't I? :laughing: Interesting concept, though, the touchless. Down close to my house, they still use those leather (or...

Yeap, just use minimal product, unless your car is really bad. In any case, this was a great read...as are most of Mike's how-to's. https://www.autogeekonline.net/forum/porter-cable-7424xp-dual-action-orbital-polisher/38399-da-polisher-articles-help-newbies-machine-polishing.html

^^ +2. Also, if you want, use a spray mist to lubricate the pad, as well while working. So, prime pad, then, add a couple more 'dots' of liquid on the pad (configuration per your liking (star pattern, circle on edge of pad, etc)). apply to the car, and while you are working the PC and pad...

If you're paint doesn't have many 'defects' such as swirls, water spotting, etc., then, you can use something like this https://www.autogeek.net/wg2000.html (amongst all the other products recommended/tested/tried) to just remove the old wax/sealant, rather than having to use a swirl remover...

haha, so true. Mine is not a new obsession, just an enhanced obsession, with better tools! The porter cable, for a first time user (while initially confusing), becomes pretty second nature after having used a buffer for sealing/waxing in the past. It's a bit more time consuming, initially...

Also, might read through this forum, for some tips -> https://www.autogeekonline.net/forum/how-make-money-detailing-cars/

Cool stuff. Good to know, for the next time I need sealant. Will be a while, though, that's for sure. Side note...now you have me wanting to install fans in the garage! haha.
