Has anyone tried the Detailers Preference sheepskin mitt from WM? It says 100% Genuine Australian merino sheepskin all for $4.98. I tried it and it the car looks better then a sponge wash, and also you can feel the curves and crevices getting into them to wash the nooks better.

I've been reading the reviews on here about the car wash. Eagle one got a good review in the red formula. All I can find is the blue, is there a difference in the 2, and does anybody know what store carries the red? I've been using the megs deep crystal and saw it didn't get the best comments...

Can you use the PC7424 for sanding? The back post on the drivers car door is missing half the paint and it's down to bare metal. It's the part where people push on to shut the doors. The lady that owned it before us wore huge rings on all her fingers and I'm guessing that is what did the...

I started detailing my wifes Chrysler 300 late yesterday, did the usual, wash, clay, polish. It started getting late so I ended with the bonding agent followed by 1 coat of 105 DG. With all the bugs out I decided not to use my light and buff it off in the morning. Much to my amazement when I...

Is there any Autopians in and around Cedar Rapids? I need an opinion on my daughters car.

We built a house in 2004 with a two year warrenty, which we are having all the problems fixed now under that deal. One problem was a bad patch in the garage, about a 1/4" deep and the size of a football. They tried to patch it when they were finishing the floor but the patch didn't hold. The...

How long do these products last? The polish and sealant went bad before I could use it all up. While cleaning out my cabinet I found the wash and enhancer in the back, I'm guessing there are about 7 years old and still look good.
