    3M clear bra's and detailing>>

    I'm having a full 3M clear bra kit put on the car along with window tint before I pick it up from the dealer.... I've never dealt with clear bra's before.... can you use a PC on them? what about SMR, paint cleaners, glazes, polishes and waxes? thanks!

    I have really bad back/shoulders... would a PC work better than hand? never used one!

    the 'other' blackfire products... wheel/tire and interior stuff?

    All my searches for blackfire gave results for the polish/wax only.. has anyone used the interior kit? How about the wheel/tire stuff?? How does it compare to other stuff on the market (303, sonus, p21s etc)?? TIA

    303 on interior... faded spots where dash has been touched?

    after dusting and cleaning my dash I apply 303 with a terry applicator and then buff with a MF towel.... It always looks great when I finish!! However, after a day or two I notice anywhere the dash or doors have been touched, the nice satin finish is gone? Is this normal of 303? or am I...

    Is there a good paint cleaner you can use with Zaino??

    Something thats not harsh... Just to get mild contaminants off the paint. I've noticed after my initial claying and three coats of zaino... the first time I washed the car after that the paint had a slightly rough finish. anything I can use before my next zaino application that wont...

    Whats the best leather conditioner for really dry climates?

    I've been using zaino... but it seems to make the leather shiny more than it does hydrate it... and on top of that its a very streaky shine. humidity here ranges from 9% to 25% on a really humid day... temps are running in the high 90's

    Zaino or Blackfire?? who's used both?

    which holds up better? (meaning protection, shine and smoothness) which looks better?? My car is light colored (light lime like green) I'd always used zaino on my dark green mustang... and loved everything but the application times, which are cured now with ZFX.... I've always...
