    Clay Alternatives

    I have been doing some research on clay alternatives like the Nano Skin Mitts/Towels and most of the threads I am finds are over a year ago when these products came out.  Many people said after using these, they believe their clay bars will start collecting dust.  Just curious since a year has...

    ONR Wash and Wax on Tires

    In most cases, my wheels are tires are not too bad so I can just was my normal wash on them instead of resorting to APC's and such.  My normal wash is ONR which does a fine job.  This bottle of ONR is about to run out so I will be getting the new (to me anyways) ONR Wash and Wax.  The only...

    Tornador Black Versus Optimum Spray Gun

    Please excuse my ignorance, but what can the Tornador Black do or do better that the Optimum Spray Gun could not? The Tornador Black is a bit more expensive so I am guessing it has more capabilities but I am not sure what they are.

    LC System 2000 Pad Washer & Grit Guard Universal Pad Washer

    Has anyone tried both? Which did you prefer? If all you use is foam I am guessing the Grit Guard would be better since agitation against the grit guard would be a little more effective than against the spurs of the LC System 2000. On the other hand, if you use wool also, how well would a...

    Finish Kare 1000P

    Several months ago FK1000P was all the rage with posters panicing when the old site went down. Lately I haven't heard anything of the product. Is this a case that pretty much enough has been said about it but people still love it or was 1000P a fad and posters have moved on to something else...

    Snow Skis and Boots

    Are Axium skis and Nordica boots a decent brand? Someone is selling 177 Axium skis and size 13 Nordica Boots (I am a big guy) for $175. This would be my first pair of skis and boots (have always rented when I went). I ski a few times a year, not a skiing nut who travels all over the...

    Chemical Guys Hose Free Eco Wash Review

    Last Spring I decided I was going to go completely rinsless on my weekly maintenance washes once I used up traditional wash due to how much I liked using ONR last winter and how much easier it was. Well, it is winter now and I still have some of my traditional wash left but since it is getting...

    Use an AIO/Paint Cleaner with Poxy?

    Hey David, I am generally in the habit of using a paint cleaner or All-In-One before applying a sealant or wax. Would Sonus Paint Cleaner or Klasse All In One be good to use before Poxy or is Poxy best to be used on bare, freshly clayed paint?

    Leatherique on Motorcycle Leather

    Just yesterday I used Leatherique on the 10 year old leather in my car and was quite impressed. I followed the normal instructions on here to apply the Rejuvenator Oil early in the day and let the car sit in the sun for several hours to produce a "steam room" affect. Later that evening I...

    Customers asking for specific products.

    AESOP F1's thread about Zaino had me wondering. For those of you who detail for money, how often do you have customers who ask you to use a specific product? I think if I were a customer, I would want a detailer to use his best judgement to use the products he thinks would be best for my car...

    Paint Decon on Boat Hull OK?

    A friend of mine has a 1998 Monterrey (however you spell it) and it could use some claying before being polished and waxed this Spring. As big as the hull is, claying will take all day. I am wondering if it could be decontaminated instead? Is it OK to decon a boat's gel coat?

    I found an old bottle of SW about 1/4 full but frozen solid. Is it ruined or once it defrosts it is fine?

    Can touch up paint be thinned?

    I have about a half a bottle of touch up paint which is several years old. I have one chip I tried fix but the touch up paint has become to thick to really work with, so thick that the capillary action will not take place. So can I thin the touch up paint a bit? I want to try to avoid buying...

    Will APC clean cat urine and the smell?

    A friend of mine's cat got ticked off at he and his wife and decided to get revenge by spraying the couch (not sure of the cat's condition at the moment but I assume it regretts doing so - assuming it is still alive). They have tried to clean up the stain but cannot get rid of the smell. Would...
