    First two coats of z-5 and z6

    I am posting a few pics of two of my cars. Both cars have AIOx1, SG x 3 or 4 (forgot:o ). They were Klassed about a month ago. The BMW has a fresh coat of Souveran on it and the Mustang a fresh coat of Blitz. I also included a pic of the Z-16 on a tire and also on the black trim on the hood...

    Wet Diamond application questions...

    I saw a minor blemish probably from a pebble, in the paint on the side of the windshield about a week ago. I was going to have them touched up at BMW's body shop but when I looked closely I saw......RUST!!!!!!!!!!! :eek: There are 3 chips each about the size of a pin head all grouped together...

    Chat Night Tonight: No Toolbar needed: Ask Jack any questions about PAC

    I have 5 layers of Klasse on two of my cars and 2 layers of Zaino on another. The Klasse I will strip with ABC before re-applying and the Zaino I guess I will just keep layering forever. :) How thick can this stuff get? Or is it really infinitesimal compared to the clear coat? H

    Zaino application: Use Z-6 immediately before 2nd coat?

    I just Zaino'd my son's Silver Accord. Did Z1 and Z2. Can I use Z6 tonight and then use Z2 tomorrow or should I wait until tomorrow for the Z6 and then Z2 immediately after? BTW the first coat looks pretty good. A little easier to use than Klasse mostly due to its ease of removal. Paint...

    Nalgene Aerosol Spray Bottle

    I have looked at the book from BMW but still can't figure out what the correct tire pressures should be. The front and rear tires are different and the book mentions this but is not really clear what the pressures should be. The front and rear are both at 30psi at the moment, but I think the...

    UPDATED: Menzerna/Lake Country Polish Range Charts

    I just got the Water Bandit from Kleanride. It comes in a nice plastic storage bin and is slightly damp. I am curious as to how it is best used. I suppose it can be used like a towel...folded up and swipe the water off. Or perhaps more like a chamois where you lay it flat and pull it across...

    PS Detailed: 2007 Black Porsche Carrera 4S Cabriolet

    I used my new PC today to polish my windshield with Zaino glass polish. It was waaaaaaaay easier than doing it by hand. The PC is incredibly balanced. I used one hand for most of the job. Nice results, put on a layer of Z-2 (by hand) and it's done. Now with nothing else to detail, I did...

    Thinking out loud... [Luster, have a look too]

    I just picked up a new shop lite from Costco. It's a pretty bright, flat, 1 foot square flourescent light with a handle and a base. The reason I bought it is that I do almost all my detailing in the garage which has and overhead flourescent in addition to the garage opener light on the...

    What method do you use for cleaning carpets?

    I am ordering the PC 7424 from Coastal Tool and the accessory kit from CMA. I noticed that the PC from Coastal tool is listed as coming with a counter weight which supports a 5" backing pad. However the CMA kit is a 6" backing pad. Is it necessary to switch the counterweight to prevent...

    Should old wax be stripped

    I Klassed my dark green Mustang several weeks ago and put a Souveran topper on. Yesterday, I washed with Pinnacle shampoo and then QD'd with Crystal mist using a Viper MF towel. When I took a look this morning with the light just right, I noticed what looked like 3 D Swirls. :eek: Upon...

    UPDATED: Lake County vs. Meguiar's Comparison Chart

    Last night I was driving '98 Mustang and I noticed that there were hundreds of tiny little white spots in the windshield when light hit it in a certain way. I had used a Miracle Towel to buff once and had tiny fibers that caused this. I had to re-wipe with a lint free cloth which got rid of...

    Slot car tracks

    I just polished my windshield with Zaino Glass Polish. I guess I don't have to go to the gym today, maybe the physical therapist! All kidding aside, with a little bit of elbow grease and the Z, I was able to polish out almost all of the water spots. It did very little for the wiper marks, but...

    PS Detailed Quickie writeup S65 AMG F430 LS460l and BMW 750li All black and one red.

    I made a mistake by applying Pinnacle Vinyl Protectant on my convertible top. It looked fantastic, until I drove in the rain. :eek: Thats when it all dripped down everywhere!! I have used 303 in the past but was wondering if that is a good product for a top or if there is anything better?? H

    Question about Dodge Charger

    After doing some work on my car with Pinnacle Paintwork Cleansing lotion, Klasse AIO and SG, I think I am ready for some power machine help! I have seen references to the PC 7424 here and would like to know if this can damage (burn) paint like regular rotary buffers. Since I am not a pro, I am...

    Best Leather Brush?

    I have read all the great things that Klasse products can do but find no references to Liquid Glass. LG is a similar cross linking acrylic polymer which can be layered. It seems that it can also be used on glass similar to RainX. I was just wondering how it compares to Klasse AIO or SG... I...
