    Acrysol good for removing Klasse SG?

    I've been eyeing this product as it seems the perfect thing for removing Klasse SG when necessary. Could I use it to remove SG during a full detail following a wash and claying? Do I just apply it to a mf towel and wipe the paint? TIA

    How's ABC?

    Been reading about Auto Intl/Valugard's ABC system. Does this stuff work well? Can it replace claying or must you still clay while using it? Do you spray it on and let it sit? Does A,B,C only come in gallons? ( Doesn't sound practical for one or two cars) Sorry for the questions but was...

    I still seem to have trouble with dust building up in my dressed wheel wells even with using 303,( think they said it's not supposed to attract dust). Anyway, I was wondering if applying AIO to the plastic parts of the wheel wells is ok. I'm hoping they will retain their sheen a retard dust...

    Anyone know how Novus #1 compares to Plexus?

    Recently visited my Harley dealer and asked for Novus. They only had #1 and no Plexus. I was hoping to get 1,2,3 and Plexus. Any way, I took what they had. Seems Novus #1 is similar to Plexus in it cleans and shines more so than removes scratches. Does anyone have Plexus and Novus #1? How do...

    aggressive compounds: Diamond Cut or 3m Super Duty RC?

    Hi, I'm wondering which of these two most aggressive rubbing compounds you prefer. Judging by the posts I've read here so far, I see Diamond Cut mentioned more than 3m Super Duty RC. Do you prefer Diamond Cut over 3m? Which RC works better by hand? By machine? TIA
