    I would guess to say that in general some people like to reply weither in a forum or even replying to someone thru a coversation thru text message that not everybody reads everything or the whole message before shooting off a reply. Now that can get annoying too. "Hey dumbass...did you not...

    Decon wash? Help a newbie

    Great question. My mind went straight to decon wash for unclogging/general coating maintanence. Especially since he mentioned he has currently 2 cars coated with cquartz. If thats the case, leave the clay out of the process. Sent from my SM-S901U using Tapatalk
