    Acid Rain Spots on New Car Finishes

    Any of you ever heard of a new car with acid rain drop stains in the paint, under the clear coat? My auto dealer is telling me that it is not uncommon for this to happen, and the only fix is to either wet sand it out or totally repaint. In some other threads I've described problems I've had...

    Protecting Surface Under Bra

    I want to protect the nose of my daily driver from chips, etc. I drive about 150 miles daily with about 2/3 of that on back roads (in farm country) so there is a higher likelihood of getting big bad bug splats and rock chips than normal highway driving. I have a bra for the car, but rarely use...

    Optimum Polish by Hand?

    For the faint of heart, or those that may not have a pc and still want to use a high quality polish, is it possible to use Optimum Polish by hand? Or how difficult to attain good results? The reason I ask is that I have not yet gotten up the nerve to use my newly purchased PC on my 2 new...

    SS&S & UPP Compatibility Prob???

    This morning I washed my UPP'd car with SS&S, and after I dried it there was absolutely no slickness. Just squeeky clean as if I stripped everything off. I have (or had?) 3 or 4 layers of UPP on the car and everytime I washed it with 4* Auto Wash the slickness remained. I was careful not to...

    My First Time!

    I waited until the last moment to order all my WG stuff from Autogeek (my penalty is that overnight Saturday delivery costs an extra 6 arms, ugh!), and then waited with baited breath for the package to arrive via UPS. In the meantime, I kept going back to Autogeek.net and Detailcity.com looking...
