    Adjust cut/agressivness with pad or polish?

    Should I exchange my ONR for DP?

    I have had very good luck with ONR but I have read allot of good things about DP's new rinseless wash and gloss. Those of you that have used both, should I send back my unused 32 oz bottle of ONR to try this stuff, or is it not that big of a difference?

    PPG Invisible Wheel Film

    Anyone ever used this product? It looks similar to Michelin Brake Dust Replant which worked well for me, mainly because it was so quick and easy to apply, its becoming hard to find though. I have been having good luck with NXT on wheels, but a wipe on/off product looks appealing
