    PB BH + EX-P + Natty Blue on my 2004 Saleen

    So I finished my detail on the Saleen using my new Poorboy's products for the first time. Even though things didn't go quite the way i thought they would, overall i'd say i'm pretty pleased with the results. Blackhole by hand, 2 coats of EX-P (both coats allowed to cure overnight, 2nd coat...

    PoorBoy's HELP!!!

    So the weather where i live finally cooled down enough for me to do a full detail of my car. It's been probably 3 or 4 months since my last full detail of this car, so I did a Dawn wash, pulled into the garage... and proceeded to open my Poorboy's products for the first time. Now, my problem...

    Best QD's, OTC and other

    I was wondering what some of you consider the best Quick Detailer's? Both readily available OTC and special order/boutique. in terms of looks/restored gloss, and in terms of lubricity/cleaning power, and in terms of what you're using it OVER (over a carnauba or sealant LSP) Also, why you think...

    Finally used my AutoGlym HD Wax

    So i finally got around to opening my AG HD Wax... and i must say, I'm fairly pleased with the overall results so far. Application was fairly easy. I found it very easy to apply a thin coat as long as the applicator pad was pretty moist. Tho the applicator did dry out rather quickly and had to...

    Autoglym HD application?

    Has anyone applied AG HD Wax with a foam or MF applicator? Does the applicator need to be moistened regardless if it's the included red app or a yellow foam app? I mainly want to experiment with this wax on a friends car, and don't want to use the included applicators...

    Layering question

    Okay, so I have a newb question involving layering and longevity of products. :help: So products, wether it be LSP wax's, sealants, or glazes... have a limit on longevity on your paint, before reapplication is needed. Correct? :confused: When layering, how does each layer effect the previous...

    Chemical Guys?

    Are they any good? Seems like they have a really wide range of products... The one that caught my eye is the XXX Hard Core Pure White Carnauba paste wax... says it's 47% Brazilian #1 (90% white, 10% yellow) The reason that stands out to me is, it's the same percentage (47%) and mixture (90%...
