I'm up for some advice on the rotary. Scary, huh? I got the Makita 9227C and because I wanted some pads quickly I got the Meg's W8000 and W7000 locally. I've got Hi-Temp Medium and Light Cut, Menzerna twins, PB SSR1&2.5, 4* UPC & SMR, and Klasse AIO on hand. I've used my PC, but miner spider...

Today was time for the spring shine & polish. I was interested in trying Hi-Temp products because the prices are so good. I used IP with white pad and followed with HTLC on a white pad. Then I applied some HT Paint Sealant by hand with the new red/white foam pad red side. I am impressed with...

I just bought some Light Power Cut Leveler to try because it seemed to get good reviews here. Reading the label it says to use Prep Wash or Prep Solve after using and before applying sealer or wax. My question is: Is it really necessary to use anything before applying a sealer? PB's, 4*, and...

About a month ago I had a bottle of Eagle One wheel cleaner that fell from about six feet onto concrete and busted wide open. Because of the circumstances I didn't think too much of it. I wasn't happy about it breaking, but, I was willing to give the bottle the benefit of any doubt because of...

I saw this statement over on AutoGeek. It was on the Klasse AIO product description and usage page. Has anyone ever tried this? How did it work?

I'm sorry if this is not the right place to post this. I noticed Charlie's Soap, laundry and APC are on sale right now. I bought a couple of gallons of each because I also read some where that UPS rates are going up in January and I figured since Charlie's isn't charging any shipping now that...

Today I did my son's corvette. He had it all cleaned up and clayed it about a week ago. Since it is kept in the garage and only driven on nice days, it was ready to polish when I got there. I used the PC and Sonus white pad with AIO starting from front to back including the windows. When I got...

I'm about to use SSR1 for the first time and would like some pointers/advice. It'll be on a less than one year old car that's been pretty well cared for so I don't expect much paint damage. Probably some light swirls. It's a silver grey metallic color. Mercury Marauder. I'm planning on using a...

I see there hasn't been any discussion about Charlie's Soap sincce 2001. Is anyone still using it? It was from that old discussion that I first heard about it. It sounded pretty good so I thought I'd try it. I ordered a gallon of the liquid Laundry Soap and a gallon of the APC. I had some MF...

Anyone going here this year? http://www.seattleautoshow.com/ I'll be down there after lunch on Nov. 4th for a couple of hours.

These sponges apply paste wax so thin it's incredible. I tried it with Nattys and #16 both. I dampened it slightly. They're perfect! And smooth... I cut the scrub part off with a knife and it leaves you with a sponge about 7/8th of an inch thick.

I decided to do a little experiment with various MF towels. I only have three brands so I'll ask that those of you that have other brands please add to the list. Since it's hard to get a feel for them viewing them on a monitor I decided to weigh them. Here's what I did. I have a postal scale and...

Received free sample to try out. Very nice 4oz spray bottle. Label and directions/description first rate. Pink in color and about the same consistancy as water. Smell is good initially, but gets a little over bearing after awhile. Purely a personal taste thing. While I NEVER put anything on my...
