I took off a small area of silver finish on a plastic piece on my steering wheel on my 2007 Nissan pathfinder. This is the same steering wheel used to 350z, armadas, and frontiers for example.I have a pic but can't figure out how to upload from my phone. Any repair ideas? This is a soft...

Have a 2007 Nissan Pathfinder in black. Had repaint on driver door and thought I took out sanding marks/swirls marks/ and holograms. Used 105 with cutting pad on PC and 205 on finishing pad. 2 IPA wipedowns, everything checked out. Couple of washes later and winter came, started noticing all...

I've finally had some time to play with 85rd on my 2007 Black Nissan Pathinfinder recently. I started to get low on my FPII bottle and decided to restock with 85rd after reading so much about it. One BIG difference between the two is the residue that 85rd leaves behind compared to FPII. With...

I've tried this wax several times and it definitely is not one of my favorites. HOWEVER, I have about half a bottle left and will use it till its finished. I recently did a spring cleanup two days ago, washed, clayed, polished, IPA wipedown, Klasse AIO, then 2.0. It rained today and...

First off, my car just got back from being repaired by a body shop for a keyed door. It was nice of them to use a filler to cover up there work on 2 doors! Really nice after researching them, talking to them, just like every other shop here in VA. Anyways, perfect time to do some quick...

Spent all weekend almost ordering a couple orders with all this black friday madness ending tomorrow. I'm almost out of IP and FPII and looking to replace and maybe try something new here and there. I started to order 105 and 205 as well as 85rd. I'm torn with the wolfgang duo 16 oz at...

Need some input on the new total swirl remover 3.0 and finishing polish 3.0. I'm about out of IP and FPII. They are on sale at autogeek and looking for something to replace them or just buy IP and 85rd to try out. Also considering 105/205 out of curiousity but don't think I need 105 based...

This past weekend I detailed a silver Mazda earl 2000's truck and newer blue Kia Sportage. I did my normal correction with a PC 2 step with Mothers Powerpolish (had an unused bottle that I wanted to try) and FPII. I had some time left over and needed to touch up a few spots from being at a...

I'm almost out of FPII and love it. I've been itching to try 85rd but want to ask if they both finish equally? I've done lots of searching and reading but got tired of going through endless threads so I thought I'd make my own :chuckle: This will be mainly used on my 07' Black Pathfinder...

I'm started to think my paint is super soft on my 07 black Pathfinder. I always use quality products when washing, polishing, waxing etc. My wash routine usually is: - pre-spray - 2 bucket - DG 901 - grout spongs -leaf blower -qd/high quality microfiber/waffle weaves About 3-4...

I really want 5.5 flat pads and i'm having a terrible time finding any. Seems like CCS pads are losing their flavor and I've never used them. I have some old flat 6.5 LC pads that I love but are needing replacing. I really want 5.5 pads that are flat. I have a bunch of 4 inch flad correction...

I think I might be going crazy looking at all the pollen and tree sap everywhere. I don't remember it being this bad this early here in VA. I have about enough time once a week to clean things up. With the pace of this weather I will be performing a wash, clay and wax every weekend until it...

Just a quick little review as I have finished using my first of two 64oz jugs. This wash provides decent suds and average cleaning. I picked up a deal months ago buying two 64 oz for $5 if I remember. The wash seems to leave a little protection behind as I learned when I recently did a...

Any input on Swirl X? Anything besides "its good" or "it cleans up well." UC is gettin a lot of airtime and just wanted to hear any feedback on this product. I've still got some IP/FPII and been eyeing M105/205 as a replacement but been hearing such stellar input on UC that I'm curious...

I'm looking a new cheap OTC carwash and saw this locally. Anybody try it yet? I have some boutique washes and recently ran out of my otc subsitute I like to use. Its ony a few bucks but didn't want to be stuck with a huge jug of it if its a waste. Any experience with this yet?
