Greetings everyone. I recently traded away for some #26 paste from a fellow autopian. It's the 'old style' #26 with the black (not transparent yellow) top. It applies great, comes off great and has great depth, and not quite as shiny as NXT. I like it thus far, but there's one problem. After...

So I have a bottle of MDC#3 carnuba I've been kicking around for awhile. It works ok..not the best in durability or depth, but it's pretty shiny. I'm looking for another all-purpose carnuba for topping and have been looking at #26. A little nagging voice in the back of my head brought up the...

I live in a condo and have to work on my car's finish under a carport. During the day, the fluorescent lights are off and I don't have any direct light to check my progress when I'm battling the cobwebbing with my PC. I'll go to town on a panel for 10 mins or so and then notice that the cobwebs...

I'm plotting my attack on the cobwebbing and other micromarring I picked up over the winter. I'm trying to stay within the means of my budget and use what I already have. Ideally, I'd like to pick up some #80 to use after the #83, and then go to AIO, then SG x 3, then a carnuba. Can I use...

My car has plastic headlamp housings. I've noticed that they seem to have some sort of bonded contaminates stuck to them when I feel them. They feel like paint when it needs a good claying. From what I understand, you're not supposed to use clay on plastic, correct? I used some AIO on them...

Hey everyone. I recently got a brand new set of Centerline RPM wheels in polished finish. I bought them as new old stock, so they have some oxidation in places from being warehoused for awhile. I figured I would use the most gentle product I have, Eagle One Nevr-Dull. After very LIGHTLY using...

When working with Megs #9 SMR, I usually run the PC on 5 or so and work it until it's almost gone. At this point, I grab my MF and wipe away the haze and determine if I need to make another pass. My question is this: If I need to make another pass with the PC on a body panel, do I need to...

The seats in my car have large, vinyl-clad bolsters. Over the past 25,000 miles, the portions of the bolsters that touch my legs have hardened, and one side has even developed a crack in it. I've since had the panel with the crack in it replaced (warranty) but the other side has hardened and I...

Hey everyone! This is my first post here. A little about my car: It's a 2003 Dodge SRT-4 (turbo Neon) and it's black. Wonderful orange-peel production black :). I also live in Seattle, and we just had a fairly 'dirty' winter, with all the sand put on the roads and the typically cruddy weather we...
