I'm detailing a friends new vette this weekend and have a question. I want to use the stuff I have here, which is excellent quality IMO. I was thinking (after claying)Menzerna FPII followed by Klassie AIO and topped with Klassie SG. Would the FPII be a sufficient polish to begin with or not...

OK, you all are going to think I am nuts here. Sorry for the last thread. I was notified today that the silver Focus the dealership was going to get was unavailable. That was news to me. It worked out better in the end. I signed the paperwork today and they are going over a state to pick up...

I am picking up my brand new car this week and it's CD Silver. I have Klassie AIO and SG. I have never done a silver car before. What would bring it the best shine/protection?

I was wondering about what soap to use when washing mf's. I have been using Micro-Restore or Sonus for this. However, I ran out and was wondering about regular liqued laundry detergent. I think we have something like Liqued Tide w/ color safe bleach. I always clean out the washer real good...

I just had a couple of questions. I am in the process of getting my new Jeep ready for a truck show. It's Light Kahki in color. First I dawned and clayed, then AIO x1 then SG x3 so far. I planed on atleast two more coats of SG. If I put Liqued Soverign over the SG to help it shine more...

OK, I have a little problem. I detailed my Black 03 Ford Focus this past weekend. I used IP x1,k FP x2, NXT x2, and S100 x1. This is the second time I have noticed that after using this combo of NXT and then a S100 Topper that my car is a HUGE dust magnet. :nixweiss The NXT had PLENTY of...

Hey, I thought I'd share an e-mail I just sent out to everybody in my address book. It would be benificial to most of you to use the "OptOut" function. That is unless you enjoy your life being an open book. :eek: Hey, I just thought I'd give yall a heads up. There is a new very...

I need help and in a bad way. I just had a very bad experiance with DACP. I was detailing my moms 99 bright red GMC 1500 Extended Cab Truck this weekend and got it all washed and clayed, then tried DACP. I have rubbing marks all over the painted surface. Their the kinda like swirls, and a...

Hey everybody, had a couple of questions for ya. I'm detailing out my moms bright red 99 GMC 1500. It has been seriously neglected. It's usually garaged, and generally only used as a truck to pull her horse trailer to shows and get hay, ect... I just got done going over the whole thing with...

Ok, I was wondering, to get the full desired effect of my work, and to benifet all the other newer people like me in here I wanted to ask the resident experts a couple of questions. When detailing using the PC, what speeds do you apply sealants and waxes, caranuba's? What speeds do you use...

Here are two Teflon Sealants that I have been able to aquire from two different dealerships. They have worked great for me as far as repeling salt, ect.... during the winter. If I could get some insite from anyone in here who has detailed knowlegde on these two products, that would be great...

Hey all, had a couple of quick questions. I completely detailed my car with my PC about a month ago. I put two sealants on it when I was done, Blackfire. Then about two weeks ago I hand applied some NXT. I was thinking about putting another coat of wax on in the am. I have NXT, #16, and...

I recently detailed my car out and it came out beautiful. However, I really wanted to use the Sonus MF Bonnetts. I tried all four that I had and put them over the Orange Pad as per the destructions, and it crunched in the pads and never had a perfect contact with the paint. This resulted in...

I detailed my car a couple of weeks ago and it came out really nice. I used #9, then Blackfire Polish, a Teflon Based Sealent, Blackfire Sealent, then topped it with S100. My question is how long does that S100 usually last? I wonder, whats better, the S100, or NXT? I plan on using a .25 car...
