Hey, it's been a REALLY long time since I've logged on but I bought a car with severely neglected american racing torq thrust II's. I really don't know what's good anymore and was thinking I would try and pick up an over the counter wheel polishing kit. I however don't know what the best way to...

I am trying to figure out how to get rid of the residue that #83 left all over my truck. I used an LC yellow pad and kept it clean with #83 and it left a gummy residue all over the paint. I have been using bug and tar remover to get it off...but its beggening to be a pain and was hoping there is...

I have been away from autopia for a long time due to school and work, but between working and school me and dad have been up to no good. We have been building this garage, all by ourselves in the evenings and days we have off. It started about may, and last time we worked on it was last sunday...

Just kinda been sitting around on these before photos for a while, I really had to hustle the night before haloween to get it done. Anyhow, I actually just shot the after pictures weeks after the detail, but its dark out and has been for a good bit (been stormy). The car started out in decent...

Did it a friend of my parents, and took a lot longer than expected. The hardest part was the interior, them being horse owners tracked quite a bit of crud into the car. I used castrol super clean diluted 6:1 to get most of the stains out, and ended up using woolite at 10:1 for the rest. The...

I know this is a n00b question, but I have never done a leather interior before and it kinda confuses me. I used a bug sponge and lexol cleaner to clean a friends seats, but he said I had to be careful not to get into the fibers or the seats would mess up. I'm not really sure what he meant by...

dunno if its always been this cheap bc my usual kmart doesnt carry it; but I found it at a kmart for $7:up

I have seen people say make sure not to go too much on the paint with certain products, but how does one know how thin the paint is getting? How do you measure it? Thanks.

A friend is wanting to pay me to do her 99 lexus gs300, however i have never really detailed a light color metallic car before. The closest I have come is white. Anyhow, here are the products available: #26 S100 AIO Glanz Wax NXt and possibly #16 anyhow, help me decide what to do. What...
