Has anyone had a problem with Aquawax getting hazy/foggy? I'm having this intermittant problem with the hood getting foggy like a windshield does. I wipe it with my finger, and it's a smeared mess. I had it happen back in early July the first time I used it after I had polished/waxed a week...

Here is a little show of my dad's 1970 Corvette that I did last week. I only had the time to work on the paint, and it actually wasn't even washed, so the rest of the car still needs a little tlc to get it to proper standards. I only had four hours to spend that day, so I concentrated on...

Now that the convertible is done, I went back to work on my '03 Bonneville. As Rydawg will attest, this paint is not easy to work with. The old version of Hyper Compound couldn't even remove the swirls with two steps on a yellow pad, but the Menzerna just blew it away with one pass on a low...

I just finished up on the baby, 1968 Cutlass. I still need to tackle trying to improve the trim, but that could take all summer, so here she is after the bulk of it is done. The car was in good shape, never polished by me anyway. When looking at the paint under the halogens, it was actually...

OK, I got a chance to test out the SIP versus my old formula of Hyper Compound. Below are pics from two different cars. Since I got two Menzerna polishes I had two of the low profile orange pads to keep things as equal as possible. I did both test areas the same, four passes in perpendicular...

Thanks so much Rydawg and others that echoed the suggestion of getting the Super Intensive Polish! I ordered it along with the Micro Polish (my wallet didn't like the price tag of the 106ff), and received it today from AG. I just took a quick moment to do a test panel with the SIP on the low...

I'll be getting in my order of SIP and 87MC from AG today, and from my recollection of posts it sounds like I won't need much, if any more polish on the pad compared to Optimum. Is this true?

I'm thinking of trying Menzerna now that AG is carrying it. What can you guys suggest for a good cutting compound/polish as well as a finishing polish? I have the old version of OHC and it is just not cutting it for me. I've tried it on a LC orange and yellow pads, and it takes at least two...

I just bought some AW on sale, and used it this weekend. It looks good, but I want to make sure I used the best method of application. I sprayed it on a couple panels, and lightly wiped it with a MF to the point where the panels were almost, but not quite dry. Then after wiping down the...

I searched and didn't really find anything on this product so I thought I would pass it along. I got this wheel mitt at Target for like $1.99 made by Vroom. It's a triangular shaped mitt with a netting on one side and MF on the other. I have to say it's a great little mitt for the price...

I never used to use tire dressing, but last fall I got a can of Megs Hot Shine aerosol spray. I like it fine, but I've only used it like three times and the can feels like I'm only going to get a couple more cars out of it, which seems ridiculous. So I'd like to know what to get that is more...

For anyone in West Michigan and surrounding areas that enjoy car shows, I just want to invite you to our show in Muskegon. It's the Main Street Car Show and benefits the Make-A-Wish Foundation. The date is Saturday June 23, and runs from 9-3. Pre registration is $8, and $10 the day of the...

I'm sure this has been discussed many times, but I didn't find any posts in a quick search, so bare with me asking.... When should an alchohol or such wipe down be done to remove any sealant/wax? I'll be polishing my car here soon, so I will be starting fresh, but what about in the middle of...

Now that many of us are coming out of winter and can get back to keeping our cars looking good, what new product do you plan to try? I'm going to try XMT Glaze topped with Nattys Blue on my black Bonneville.

OK, so I just received my LC 5.25" CCS Orange pad from Danase a couple weeks ago and had the chance to try it out this afternoon. I wanted to see what kind of a comparison I could get with the regular 6.5" pad. I also threw in the yellow 6.5" pad that I got over Christmas and hadn't used yet...

I just thought I would post up a little review of Bob's Turbo Shine that I tried this afternoon. I apologize, I don't have any pictures because I just did a quick wash before I had to pick up my kids, and now the car is dirty again from our melting snow covered roads. I'll get some up in the...

I just thought I would post about something I tried this weekend. I washed all of my towels this weekend after my first try with ONR, and had several dirty ones including my white Walmart WW that was rather brown. My wife had just bought a refill bottle of Spray N Wash with Resolve. So...

I got my ONR yesterday, and I got to thinking it will probably be rather awkward to use (it's the gallon size). I was thinking that the kind that screws into the mouth of the bottle and has the pump dispenser would be perfect. Can anyone point me to where I might find one locally?

Got my ONR from Bob yesterday along with a Shmitt. I know the basic process on washing with ONR, but are there any tips anyone can give me with regards to doing it with the Shmitt? I plan to hit the coin op to rinse off the heavy salt first. Then I'll do the wash, with two buckets, one small...

I finally got the chance to order for the first time from Bob and I have to say he will definitely be getting my business in the future! He went the extra mile on helping me decide on products. I finally placed the order at like 9 PM last night, and when I checked my email just now I already...
