This stuff is definitely addicting ... or is it the OCD making me put more coats on? LOL I` m up to about 4 now, with no signs of stopping my weekly wash/applications.

My Mother-in-Law`s 2013 Ford Edge. It`s not been washed since LAST YEAR. At least there were no washing/drying swirls and no Swirl-o-matic damages to the paint, but it was DULL. I used a Meguiar`s thin maroon cutting pad and D151 over the entire car, then a thin coat of KSG that I let cure...

I decided to go a 2nd round with the Klasse. This time, I decided to use a small UFO sponge applicator LIGHTLY dampened with the heavily diluted D115 mix, and only used a few drops of KSG per panel section. I applied it to the whole car and let it set up for about 2 hours. Using two clean...

Well, I decided to go ahead and use the KSG on the Camaro and use the PC to apply it. I started with using a severely watered-down mix of D115 to dampen a foam polishing pad after a few panels, there was enough KSG in the pad that reapplying the D115 to the pad wasn`t necessary. Well, the...

It was too hot to wash the car (89* + 90% humidity) but I had "The Itch" so I broke out some D115 (watered down from 8:1 to about 20:1) and cleaned off my trunk lid and spoiler. I`ve been reading up on KSG since I haven`t been able to order the Gyeon CanCoat & related goodies to coat my car and...

It`s been a long time since I`ve used KSG, but wasn`t there a trick to aid in removing it? Like using a lightly damp microfiber cloth?

The Camaro was last polished in the Fall using Meguiar`s D151, fast forward to last Sunday and I coated it with McKee`s 37 Paint Coating. No prep work this time around except for a wash with Deep Crystal soap. I plan on doing a full polish/coating when I receive my McKee`s Paint Coating V2 in...

The Brand Passenger light - LED, driver`s side - halogen Both lights LED LEDs daylight LEDs at night OBVIOUSLY, I`m going to have to adjust them down a bit, but as you can see, they are bright as hell ... bonus, they were only $25 on Ebay.

I posted earlier about my wife`s Explorer and for advice on pulling the throttle body for cleaning - my Camaro was nasty at 73,000 - so I figured hers had to be disgusting ... I was right. Yesterday, I worked and it was t-shirt weather, today I`m off and it`s freezing with snow flurries -...

Recently I did a MAF sensor/throttle body cleaning (off the car) on my Camaro. Even with only 73,000 miles on the engine, there was a noticeable difference. So I decided that this weekend, I would do the same to my wife`s 2003 Ford Explorer 4.0 SOHC. It has over 115,000 mile and has only had...

I am trying to quit smoking and since I spend a lot of time driving my Camaro, I needed to get the smell out AND clean the interior glass of all the smoke residue and oils and other gunk. I`ve tried multiple glass cleaners and all of them had the same effect - kind of clean, but really smeary...

We had our first real snowfall two days ago, about 4" which means that the streets were snow covered (packed) and slushy in some areas from the salt. It was still coming down heavy and traffic was terrible, it took me over two hours to make a 45 minute drive home. Speeds averaged 20 mph with the...

Well, since I broke down and gave the car a regular wash today, I decided to scrub the new Falkens ... not that much scrubbing was needed for new tires, and try out a new (to me) tire dressing, Megs Endurance. Following the directions for a more muted shine, I wiped ... ok, slopped the gel on...

They recently installed a brand new touchless car wash less than a mile from my house. Temps here have been in the low 40`s and too cold for this old man to wash his car ... even when using a bucket of hot soapy water. The result is a filthy, daily driven Camaro that is just horrendous to look...

Before anyone says anything, I know the car and the tires are filthy and need washed (and dressed), but after taking my sheepdog to the groomer and taking care of other daddy business, I ran out of light and I only took today off to get the tires. All in all, I`m happy, I`ve got new tread...

I have been shopping for tires for the Camaro and have gone a few different places to have them evaluate my current tires to see if they are is as bad of shape as I think. Yesterday, I went to a huge, non-chain tire store and after being asked just how much dressing I used on the tires (I...

D151 Paint Rejuvenation Cream + NEW pics Since this is probably going to be one of the last nice weekends here in NE Ohio, I decided to polish out the Camaro and then reapply the Ultimate Fast Finish. I`ve used the D151 on a few production details and was really impressed with how well it...

I gave myself a long weekend since Monday is my birthday (51) and my wife is taking care of her grandmother this weekend, as long as I have my chores done, the rest of the time I can play with my car. Friday I did a good wash on the car w/Meg`s Gold Class, sheeted the water off and dried it...

My friend had a little oops with his daughter`s brand new car ... he kind of backed into it with his car. No real damage but some real nasty scuff marks. He asked me how much to fix and I just laughed at him. Seriously? Charge a friend for a 12" x 12" scuff mark? PLEASE. He lives about an...

As the title says, I used too much UFF last time I applied it to the car and now I have high spots/streaking all over. In order to remove them, should I: 1) Rewash the car and reapply the Ult Fast Finish thinner and immediately buff it off section by section, OR 2) Will something like D115 @ 8:1...
