    QEW as a spray and wipe ....

    I've mixed up some QEW in a QD bottle-an ounce or two per bottle and use it for bird bombs. It seems to work fairly well. I haven't noticed any micromarring. I let it sit for a few seconds before wiping it. The soap content must be fairly strong as it dissolves bird bombs pretty effectively...

    Unkown autopian quality products...

    I'll start. SEAL ALL -a multipurpose glue that can be found at WalMart. It can be used reglue pads and for odd jobs. I even used it to fix trim on a convertible top. What are some others?

    Is Z5...

    99 plus percent optically clear like Z2Pro? The reason I ask is it seems to have a darker, less reflective look then Z2Pro.

    rethinking silicone.....

    I know silicone has been debated several times-and we know that there is a difference between silicone oils and silicone polymers. Some people are under the impression that silicone polymers are a low cost, low quality ingredient. I found something quite interesting. Plasti-Kote mades a HI- TEMP...

    Z5 vs Z2 Pro on darks...

    Anyone prefer Z5 to Z2 Pro on dark colors? I just tried some Z5 with Z1 on my hood and about an hour afterward it started to rain. I'm probably going to apply another coat of either Z5 or Z2 Pro- what are some opinions?

    Wd-40

    My pastor was using WD-40 as a sermon illustration of not quitting- the WD (water displacement) and 40 (number of formulations before being successful). He listed some of the "other" uses that WD-40 fans use the product for. The one that interested me the most was -leather softening. Anyone who...

    micromarring from Optimum HC?

    Last week I used some OHC with both an Edge Yellow med. cut pad and a Megs Burgandy pad on a rotary and got micromarring. I'm assuming that the pads weren't the problem and its a user error issue. I've read a couple posts about people encountering the same problem but I don't know what pads...

    Edge yellow medium cutting pad... on rotary review

    I used my Edge Yellow MC pad with OHC today. This pad produces almost no splatter. However I did have a problem with buffer hop and holograms. I'm thinking that's a sign of not using enough product. I followed up with ZPC on an orbital but next time I'll probably try a less aggressive rotary...

    Zaino ZPC first test......

    First let me say that I had read some posts that complained about this product leaving micromarring on blacks. I used it on NBM with a Megs yellow polishing pad and a small orbital. I applied the product around the pad in small dots and went to work. I was able to work the product for quite a...

    Gold Class vs NXT soap....

    picked up some GC soap at Costco. First impressions are that it is very slick feeling to the touch and it supplies a large amount of suds. But IMO the NXT soap provides better lubrication in hard water.

    picking product and pad combos...

    for micromarring and moderate defects how would you pick combos... yellow cutting with Mothers Powerpolish/Megs 80 or ZPC or green light cut with Optimum HC/DACP or Menzerna IP? Rotary usage.

    water idea for the mobile guys....

    read this suggestion on another forum. If you're a mobile detailer working in an area without a water supply and need water for QEW get a 5 gallon water cooler like they use for sporting events. Don't have to worry about spillage :doh

    Do SFX polishes contain cleaners?

    i thought I read that the Swirlbuster polish doesn't have cleaners in it-what about the others? If not what is the reasoning behind this?
