    I live in Arizona and we are on our way to 110 degree temps. I keep my detailing products organized in a plastic container in the garage. How bad is the heat for these products - which includes waxes, sealants, polishes, swirl removers, etc. Does the heat break down these products to where...

    Klasse, Blackfire or Pinnacle - I can't decide!

    Well, I'm ready to detail the outside of my '01 Vette again. Last time I used Meguiar's products topped with Liquid Glass, and got pretty good results (I do still have the minor swirls from when I bought the car over a year ago). BUT, with all the reading I have done on this site, I think I...

    Liquid Glass vs. Meguiars NXT

    I recently bought a 2001 Metallic Navy Blue Corvette. I didn't know what was applied to the paint prior, so I got right on it. I used Kit paint cleaner (wich I really liked), then applied a coat of Liquid Glass. But I didn't quite get the deep gloss shine I hoped for. I was wondering if I...
