    wax/sealant after body repair

    Had my quarter panel repainted after an accident, ive seen the consensus is to wait 30-60 days before waxing/sealing, however the body shop used PPG enviro waterbased paint and said it was ok to apply wax right away. I cant find any information from PPGs website and was curious if anyone knew...

    Detailing a guitar

    Thanks all for the feedback, as waxmaster noted, i do have a thick urethane finish. The guitar i have is of a collectors edition so wanted to keep it looking as good as i could given how bad black shows imperfections so easily. I ended up actually claying it, then using using M205 just by...

    rewaxing after sealant wears out

    Curious what most of you do when you initially clay/polish/wax, and after 4-6 months when the sealant wears off, do you just wash and reapply the same sealant/wax or repeat the process all over? Thanks

    Applying Wolfgang Deep Gloss Sealant

    Ive tried to search before asking, but I plan to apply Wolfgang Deep Gloss 3 after buffing with Meguiars 205. Since my car is kept outside, I was curious if after applying one coat, would I benefit from a second or perhaps following up with something like collonite 845? Thanks.

    Removing botched Cquartz Uk coating

    Thank you all for your tips, I went through Mike Phillips (thanks for sharing your tips) videos as to using a DA and was able to get just about all of the Cquartz residue off. I spent about 3 hours going over the car twice with using Meguirs Ultimate compound with a orange pad. I initially...

Im curious if anyone thinks its a good idea to...

    Removing botched Cquartz Uk coating

    Actually, what happened to me, was that the cquartz I believe is going through a solid to hard transition during the first 24 hours and 3 hours into it, it was in a gel like state. As I assumed it had dried by then, I ended up applying it at a bad time when I should have waited for it to...
