An incident today sparked the idea for this thread. I'm a total non smoker for a couple of reasons including the fact that my father is a lung doctor. Anyone riding in my car would know this, thus, everyone who rides in my car is a non smoker as well. Well, today I was going out to my car after...

Read the above process! This is what I'm thinking of doing to get my car ready for the pre-winter rain season and snow as well. Would this be very durable? I've got all of those products at my disposal, so any suggestions are welcome. I also have EX, EX-P, NXT and I think that's it as far as...

Whew, now I know what you guys are talking about! I didn't last very long (so easy to do!), but believe me, while I was doin it, man, was it some FUN! Can't believe I waited until this long, I feel like a complete idiot. Man, it was so easy too, and no consequences! If you can't figure it...

Hey y'all, I cleaned my car today and I always do the wheels first. Problem is, I cannot for the life of me find a GOOD wheel and tire cleaner. I'm not talking about a spray on hose off deal (those don't work for **** anyway), just something that is good, and with agitation will just make brake...

Man, this guy is like lightning! I ordered on like monday night (so tuesday), got some SSR3, OP, and OC. Got my stuff today, well packaged and just as described. His prices are EXTRAORDINARILY low, and goes above and beyond the norm to make you feel satisfied. I wouldn't hesitate to buy anything...

So I decided to try out NXT wax today. Went to the local autozone, looked around, and saw three different varieties: liquid, paste, and spray. Being a strong carnauba advocate, I decided on the paste wax and the spray for quick wax jobs in between. Little did I know that NXT contains ZERO...

Yes, I've finally got it: detailer's flu. The symptoms are pretty accelerated: 1. Staying up until 1 am to perfect a polishing job 2. Waxing your bathroom counter with Natty's to see some depth and worst of all 3. Actually faking sick so you can detail your running boards There's...

I was thinking about making this thread after I washed my car today. I hadn't really planned anything different (always use Meg's GC), until I saw that my dad had swiped the rest of the soap for his Z :furious: . So, I went to pepboys and debated between turtle wax platinum soap and NXT soap...

Just kidding. Finally took pics after my #26 cured on my 02 civ si. I'm just going to copy and paste what I wrote over on OT.com (don't feel like making anything up again :nixweiss: ) 02 civ si Process: Wash w/meg's GC Clay magic (while washing) SSR2 w/ orange pad poorboy's polish...

Hey all. My first experience with a PC has gone great so far! However, I couldn't fully remove the swirl marks from my car. I'm assuming that I'm being too weak. Using a LC orange pad w/ SSR2. Should I step it up to SSR3, or get a cutting pad? I'm only worried because my car was in good...

Hey all, I got my PC today finally WOOT! Anyway, I was testing it out on my car with some SSR2 with the white pad it comes with. It did take down some of the swirls (I wasn't expecting it to anyway), but that's not the "problem" at hand. The PC seriously like jars my arms. It doesn't like...

I just wanna see what you guys use to make silver flow like water. I have mostly poorboys stuff (ssr 2, poorboys polish, nattys blue, ex, ex-p) and i can get some other goods from the store. Need it by this weekend, so i wont be ordering much anymore this week :( . What do you recommend? Here's...

Hey all, lookin for some advice. I'm an "underground" detailer, but it 's time to step up and get a PC to get the swirls outta my car before winter hits. I want to buy one in a package with most of the pads I'll need. A few questions first: 1. Be honest, can I actually DAMAGE the paint (not...
