Does anyone here use JaxWax products? They have a full line and they say they are a manufacturer.

Why doesn`t the Store acknowledge that the DMT towels are Poorboy`s?

It`s going to be a proud moment for the U.S. when we inaugurate a woman for president after the landslide victory in November. Europe, South America, and the Pacific have been way ahead of us on this for decades. Eight years of a black president then a woman... Seems we`re finally growing up.

I`ve had two posts deleted. Most recently asking about Sonus products. Admin should at least send a private message saying why it was deleted.

What`s up with Sonus? Are they the real deal? By that, I mean are they a company that bottles their own formulas? Or, are they just a bigger company`s other offering? PBMG? CarPro? Menzerna? Ultima? Why does CarPro sell this brand on their site? At any rate, I`ve never been disappointed in a...

Is Uber AOI getting any love around here? I had 1/2 bottle from a trade and it changes my mind about AOI`s. I loved it. But, AOI`s are difficult to please people because of varying expectations. I did an entire New Beetle with it and the shine was so nice I hated to top it. I`ve had bad luck...

As the title suggests, I`m looking for any novel advice on correcting RIDS - those extremely isolated, somewhat-deeper-than-a-swirl-mark scratches. It seems that "chasing RIDS" has got me sacrificing paint depth on too-large of an area. My technique is 4" orange pad, DA, with compound. By the...

Copycating the CG thread. What about Adams? I`m a recovering QD addict, and Adams Detailer was/is a favorite. I also have Butter Wax and it leaves a great look, better than some expensive waxes, but longevity... meh. Any fans?

As the title suggests, I`d like to have a polish like Menzerna 2500 but with a bit more cut. Similar, in terms of performance, behavior, and predictability. Reflect? Profaline? HD?

Hi friends. It's been a LONG time since I've posted. When life pulls you into the vortex, and you're spinning around not knowing which way is up, the polisher, the Menz, the exotic waxes - it all quickly fades into the background. I haven't properly detailed a car in six months. Luckily, the...

Hi all. So I have a friend who has had a life-changing event and needs money. She wanted to get money out of her traditional IRA held by a local bank. She's well aware of the taxes and penalty. She doesn't qualitfy for any of the pre-59.5 withdrawal liberites. From what I understand, she...

I was in Sam Ash yesterday, and saw a bottle on the counter where the contents looked just like S&W. While no one was looking, I opened it and smelled. ahhhh Yes! Unmistakably Spray & Wipe. They use it on $2000+ acoustic guitars! I told the guy behind the counter that I knew what that stuff...

So I was idly surfing a popular auction site for QD's and Spray Waxes to add to my collection, and began to think, it's insane out there. Here's a list of brands I didn't recognize that make and/or sell spray waxes and QD's. See any good sleepers in here? I see a lot of Wurth and Chemical Guys...

First: Is D156 Synthetic X-Press Spray Wax the same thing as the retail product UQW? Secondly: Is the retail product Ultimate Wash and Wax Anywhere any good? By "any good", I mean, could go up against UWW+? Thirdly: Is Ultimate Wash and Wax Anywhere the same thing as the Detailers gallon size...

Is there a wash method that anyone uses to remedy towels that tend to lint? I have some good Korean towels (Kona Blue from ADS) and they lint horribly on just-waxed surfaces, even spray waxing and QD. I like the towels other than the lint, and would like to "fix" them if possible. On a side...

I have successfully RESTORED ugly headlights on a few cars, but I have never polished headlights that still look good but might have some light marring or swirls. I'm worried that by doing so, I'll remove the factory protective coating (assuming there is one), and then I'll be stuck in an...

With so much love for FK425 and 1000P, I was wondering, are there any other amazing sleepers in the line? Sealants, tire dressings, compound, polishes, soaps... They pretty much have it all, but some items are large quantity. I personally love these type of low-hype companies that quietly make...

I like spray waxes, but more so, I like QD's that double as spray waxes. If you're in my boat, I like all the ones you probably do: FK425, PB QD+, CG V7, etc. Enter Polish Angel Presto: It calls itself a QD, but is much more like a spray wax than anything I've ever used. Here's some claims from...

Welp, we've had a mild weekend with morning temps in the mid 70's, which is such a tease, because once May starts, we're locked into 6 months of hot. Come mid June through October, the humidity monster will make it intolerable in the garage. Yep, in the same vane of the Dreaming of spring...
