I`ve been reading on autopia for about a month and decided it`s time to buy a kit. I can`t decide which exterior kit from autogeeks will be the best for my car, any help would be greatly appriciated :)

*I* would go with the Forum Favorite. They are both great deals. You can`t really lose.

Seems like a no brainer. The Forum Favorite by a longshot. And a quick look at the kits available from Autopia and Proper Auto Care, the Forum Favorite still holds a clear advantage.



Don`t use too much All-In-One. I`d suggest appliation with a Porter Cable.



If you have the time, use All-In-One a second time. Notice I don`t use the world "coat". The second application of All-In0ne will remove the first, but it will further clean. I`d liken it to washing your car twice, or running the dishwasher two cycles in a row. A perfectly blank canvas will get you the best results for which you can then use Sealant Glaze and Souveran.



Alot is said about waxes/sealants in this forum, but real results will come from making sure you paint is smooth, clean and free of defects. That is the most important part. It`s just that the waxes and sealants get all the glory, but it`s the paint prep products that are the work horses.
