Anyone using DIY Detail products?

[noorth]

The Guz enjoys using their primer polishes - fine, medium, course. The nice thing about their primer polishes you don`t need to wait for them to cure before you apply the LSP/coating. Labocosmetica`s super fine polish fiero is the same.

Expensive products however. Dr. Beasley`s. Not sure if its across the board but the products i looked at were all on the higher end of the market.

Personally, I`m moving the vast majority of my products over to labocosmetica - a number of my products are up for re-stock. For a DIYer they have some very good concentrated products. Leale their medium polish is just as good as sonax perfect finish. I think it might cut a bit more as well.

I already have primus, purifica, omina, vitreo, semper and leale. All excellent products.

The iron remover looks to be the best on the market if it does what they say it does. And it too is concentrated.

They have a new tire dressing coming out soon that will be my next dressing. And under their manic line they are releasing a new Rinseless wash. Again my next rinseless for sure. (Initially i liked absolute but its not the easiest to dry and it just feels cheap to me - like all the P&S stuff. I prefer DIY between the two.)

The new packaging is some of the coolest packaging I ever seen as well. Which frankly is something i look for in a brand.

Mike Phillips was not at autoforge that long. Seems like he is jumping around a lot as of lately. Now he is at Dr. Beasley’s. Do they have good products. Thanks

Mike left 3D because they sold to a holding company and due to That not working out in the past he left ASAP. Don’t no why it didn’t work at AutoForge, guessing difference of opinions with Bob or Nick. He has always been a fan but f Dr Beasley’s and there owner so thinking it is his last stop.


I’ve been let down by Plasma Coat, advance coat gloss and bead hero. Bead hero may HCW been my fault due to prep.

I like their story and have heard nothing but good things about their Matte products.

Heard good about NSP polishes as well bet seems there is a learning curve with them.

"Good product line overall with a good blend of contract chemists for formulations.
Turtle Wax - Rinseless wash, incredible suds, ceramic gloss, tire dressing
3D Car Care - Gold Standard Polish (probably Owner`s Pride is identical)
ECP Inc. - 3/5/8 Year Ceramic coatings, interior ceramic, interior clean and protect
Technician`s Choice (ECP Inc.) - Quick Beads (TEC582 concentrate + graphite flakes + DI water)
Generic products - Iron remover (identical to Owner`s Pride DeconX), All Clean (same as Owner`s Pride), Panel Prep (IPA), Water Spot Remover (vinegar), Tree Sap remover (methanol).
The only thing that is worth mentioning is that the iron remover is sodium mercaptoacetate based rather than the more potent ammonium mercaptoacetate. That means a clay towel can be used in combination with their iron remover. Also Yvan is coming out with a professional only C6 coating line which is also made by ECP Inc. (Auto Armor, The Protector, Technician`s Choice, Tornador, etc.)"

"Well if you read the SDS sheet for DIY Quick Beads, the blender ECP Inc. (Technician`s Choice) kind of goofed and left the a small part of the ECP logo in the header. I don`t think we will ever know the dilution ratio with deionized water but you can try different ratios!"

I am still using the Einszett/Nextzett Cockpit Premium product, and it still works great!!!
If the Interior plastic is really dirty, I like their Deep Plastic Cleaner = it works fast, gets it really clean and leaves a nice fragrance that does not linger..
Follow with Cockpit Premium, and there you have it...
Really nice, finished, nice fragrance Interior Plastics..

Interesting. Its a shame when some of these companies like owner`s pride charge some inflated prices for there products.

I had a feeling that there polish called "Compound" was rebranded 3D One. Open up the SDS and you can see HD 400 on the header. 3D One has the number 400 on the bottle and they used to use HD(High Definition) also.

I was going to order "Compound" one time....i would of been pissed.

I cant` confirm the accuracy of that list. In fact, I`m told parts are very inaccurate so take it with a grain of salt.
