For at least the past year, my Tahoe has had something dripping out from between the rear glass and hatch. I have cleaned multiple times with 3D APC, HD TOTAL, and other cleaners in the area the drippage comes from, but it won't go away permanently. The rear hatch/glass was replaced in 2005 due...

I bought these last week and had some time to work on them today. Here are some befores of the worst rim: Then I cleaned and wet sanded them on Friday and Saturday. Here is an after of the same rim pictured above: Still not too pretty, but definitely prettier. I'm...

Today I picked up these GS rims (similar design to AMG hammer rims) at a very nice price from an Acura Legend Forum member. I was planning on having them painted a metallic silver color, but first I want to try to bring back the original finish as much as possible to see if I can deal with it...

Tools used: -HD UNO -sand paper -HD TOTAL -tooth brushes -screw drivers I went to Pick Your Part this morning "just because." I found a Legend that was really torn apart, but it surprisingly had relatively uncracked burl wood. I paid $7 for it (sans ash tray, cigarette lighter, and...

I polished my the clear coated burl wood in my car last week with hD UNO 2.0 and then applied AG SRP. The burl wood has some cracks in it from the sun, and now those cracks are white. Any tips on how to remove this? I am going to try HD TOTAL and a tooth brush when I get home.

first question is about RIDS: I keep finding RIDS only on the top of my trunk. Is there something I can be doing to cause them only there? Power washing? I'm at a loss as to why they are there. and M26: I applied AG SRP and topped it with M26 and my car looks great. Something I noticed...

I polished out some minor wash marring via rotary today on my green Acura with Meg's #9 and there are no visible holograms I could find using a LED light or the sun. I tried using an APC afterwards and then HD TOTAL in the same spot and no holograms reappeared, leading me to believe either there...

My grandma was driving the previously 95%+ mint Tahoe and was going into the left turn lane. Unfortunately, she got a teeny bit too close and broke a Chevrolet Silverado's mirror off with the Tahoe's. Carnage: Nothing was removing the black transfer (Tried HD UNO and Meg's Ultimate...

I have a friend that had his car repainted and initially he said it just looked like it wasn't sanded and buffed correctly. I drove over to his house to give it a perfect finish and find out there are heavy runs all over, sanding marks that I later found out were low grit, underneath and on top...

I received my order of 4 HD products and 4 3D products today (shipped in 2 days with the cheapest shipping!). I will be updating this thread with my reviews of these products. List of what I bought: -HD Uno -HD Interior kit (like this: How to clean & protect the interior or a dirty Ferrari...

I was washing my Aunt's Mini Cooper S in the driveway while my cars were parked in the open garage. My oldest cousin (30) comes out and starts talking to me. I see her leaning on the rear bumper of the Legend and politely ask her to stop it. She simply says "No." I'm sort of surprised so I say...

On 303 Aerospace and some other dressings/protectants, it gives you instructions and says "WIPE COMPLETELY DRY!" at the end. Why is this? does your plastic/vinyl/leather self-destruct if you don't?

I normally only detail my own cars, but sometimes my neighbors or friends ask for a wash and wax. I "wash and waxed" my neighbor's 2005 Tahoe for $30 the first time in its life a few months ago, and it is really disappointing having to put twice the amount of work as one of my cars into it and...

My clear coat started like this: And then I posted this picture a while after it was polished: And yesterday I wetsanded, compounded, and polished it to this: I know it is most likely not a permanent solution, but it is way better now than before, and it slows down the...

Long story short, I was in my Acura Legend pulling out of a parking space that I backed into and a kid in a Honda Oddysey backed up into me when I was 1/3 the way out and took off. I got the idiot's license plate number and the police got his parents to contact me. The kid only hit my front...

For some reason, I decided I was too good to tape up my black trim while compounding and polishing my Acura Legend's paint back in May. This resulted in nasty white stains that peanut butter wouldn't touch and steel wool barely impacted. The white stains merely laughed at Mother's back to black...

I got a new iPhone 3G a few weeks ago. It was working great until I updated from the 4.0.1 to the 4.0.2 software. I can't hear out of the speaker that you hear out of when you put your face up to the phone, and the proximity sensor stopped working. The weird thing is, it only does this half the...

My iPhone 3G turned itself off on Memorial Day and never turned back on. It was way out of warranty (about 9 months out of warranty), but I decided to send Apple a letter last week telling them (in a nutshell) if they replace my iPhone for free, out of warranty, I will continue to stay loyal to...

It seems like Mercedes' Ceramiclear doesn't help with swirls or scratches, so I was just wondering why they went through all the trouble of creating it?
