I used Poli-Seal after Meguiars M205 today. I applied the Poli-Seal with a PC and back LC CCS pad. SUPER CLOSE-UP (yes, those are the metallic flakes) I see small clumps like this in some areas. They aren't easy to remove. I tried ONR and then finally IPA to get them off. Any...

Been experimenting in 2009 with all of the new developments in DA specific products. I've locked in a few processes that are making the cut. All washed with Citrus Wash & clear via foam gun. First: Bad paint, DA only, Zaino finish M105 M205 Z5pro Z8 (12h post curing) Second...

I have used 3M, Edge, and Lake Country CCS. Im looking for something new for the Porter Cable and the rotary. Was planning on going back to the Edge, but not too sure of the longevity of the line now that its 3M. The Megs pads with the diamonds look decent, so do flat Lake Country. I just...

I have been using water based tire dressings since joining Autopia. Previously, I used Car Brite Blue Magic. Blue Magic used to last through rain, snow, and it would shine for weeks in good weather. Z16 has my favorite appearance. I barely use my Jeep and a double application wore off...

ELECTRIC BLOWER JETSPEED DRYER BLOW DRYER Does anyone use this? I have used a leaf blower in the past, but unless the ground around the car is wet, debris blows all over the car. I like the size, and price, but can anyone comment on the power?

The owner of this vehicle contacted me through recommendation by this forum. He was looking to have this car returned as close to its original state as possible. The body has had no damage in 5 years of use and was well maintained. Its lowered with a Tien coil over suspension and had a...

More to follow. Needless to say, I am happy.

Anyone here in the states use this? Interesting as it doesn't fall into the standard Do Do line along with Double Wax, another interesting candidate. I'm looking to try something new in the spring and pull away from Concorso and Mystery. Any input either positive or negative?

In reading about the Kevin Brown Process, I have come up with a basic understanding, but am still waiting for the final document to be released. I believe the idea is to turn the foam pad into a sheet of variable grit sandpaper. Non-diminishing grit is housed in the pad, then via pressure it...

Does anyone exclusively use Optimum polishes for paint? I used the old formulas until I finished the 32oz bottles, then jumped on the Menzerna bandwagon. No regrets in either, just interested in the percentage of full-time users of Optimum vs. Menzerna.

I was just reading about Menzerna polishes on the Optimum forum, and this came up. "I've seen a few threads on other forums where people have stated that swirls came back after using Menzerna but that it was flawless when they had finished. So it's possible that it may temporarily swell...
