My god! What have I done? I just washed my wifes brand new minivan with 40 freaking miles. Put on some tire shine and she drove off before it had a chance to dry. She comes back and the white paint is now totally trashed with yellow spots. I had no idea this could happen. Is there anything I can do?

This is ridiculous. I am detailing a vehicle for a friends brother. It was described as a former company vehicle...a 97 Ford Ranger extended cab with 200k miles. When it showed up, I almost cried. The vehicle was used by a local highway equipment company and spent most of it's life...

I was wondering what everone prefered. They seem to be pretty close in abrasiveness. Based on my experiences with both products. I like the 3M 39009 better. I found it easier to apply with the PC and take off. I also like the fact that it is darker so it is more noticeable on the vehicle. The...

What car wash is safe to use between layers of SG. The car is my daily driver and I want to build up a few layers before winter. I will need to wash in between coats but I know most have some wax in them that might affect the bonding of SG. What should I use?

WHat Zymol products have you used (other than what you can buy at Wal-Mart) and what is your opinion on them. Zymol makes a ton of waxes like Japon wax, Volvo wax, Saab Wax, Carbon Wax, and Zymol titanium (which should be applied with your bare hand like their estate waxes). I have been really...

Someone on another forum I visit is asking about it. I have never heard of it. Has anyone here? http://www.eaglewax.com/products/kamikaze/

Last weekends project was detailing my parent's 95 Lexus ES300. I did 1xDACP, 2x, AIO, 2x SG, and a coat of S100. Monday morning, my dad took it to work and they were paving a parking lot right next to his spot and it was a bit windy. The entire car is covered in tar and some sort of solvent...

I have 2 coats of SG followed by Pinnacle Souveran as a top coat. What do I need to do to add another coat of SG and Pinnacle, since I figure I need to remove the wax somehow. Will washing with Dawn remove all of my previous work with Klasse? WHat do you autopians recommend?

have been doing some part-time detailing on the weekends . I just did a detail on a mid 90s Subaru Outback with 100,000 milesx on it. It hasn't been waxed in a few years and regularly sees the bristle brush at the local car wash Their was alot of clear coat damage that couldn't be removed, but...

I just completed doing my last layer of Klasse SG. I know you shouldn't use anything with wax between layers of SG so it will bond properly. I just used water to rinse it down and Final Inspection SD between coats. I had to drive the vehicle last night so it needs to be washed more...

I was thinking of trying a few coats of Zaino and then some Pinnacle over that. I am curious and wondered if anyone already tried this.

I was wondering which stores carry the PC? Lowe's doesn't, Home Depot doesn't, Sears doesn't! Is buying it online the only option? I would like to actually see it first and possibly get it sooner than having to wait.

I am new here and just ordered The Klasse duo and some Pinnacle to use on my new 04 Jeep Grand Cherokee in silver. I was told there are some tips and tricks for using the Klasse. I have heard it can be difficult to remove. Any advice?
