    Where in MD can I find some Engine Kote?

    I remember this thread wherein the pictures were QUITE good of an engine cleaned with Meguiar's APC+ and then shined with "Engine Kote". Where can I find this stuff? I have had no success at all. I live in Maryland, and for the life of me, I can not find it at any professional detailer or...

    I have some very slight micromarring/swirls that need to be removed. I have the Klasse twins, but I also have some 3M Perfect-It Swirl Mark Remover for dark cars. I wanted to just use AIO if possible, but if it won't do the job, I'll bite the bullet and do the 3M first. Any help would be...

    Any idea on shelf-life of Klasse twins?

    As I said about some Souveran I bought 2 summers ago, I am wondering if the Klasse twins go bad in that period of time. I have kept them closed for nearly all of that time except when using it, and I have only used them (before this summer) two times. Any ideas on whether or not they could...

    Stupid question, but quick...

    I recently (about 2 weeks ago) put 2 coats of AIO, 1 coat of SG and a Souveran coat on my Cobra. Just a quick question, but washing first, then redoing the AIO will start me back at square 1, right? In other words, the Souveran and SG will be removed by putting on another coat of AIO, right...

    Souveran purchased 7/12/2002.. Is it bad?

    So I put another coat of Souveran (in the can, not the bottle) on my Cobra today and a few hours later noticed that it is a little bit faded and/or hazy.

    I need an in-car camera mount...

    I need a good in-car camera mount for my 2003 Cobra. The headrests are not the typical 2 post style though, so that bar thing won't work. It has a single flat post. Anybody have any ideas on where to purchase such a thing? I am not adverse to suction cups on the windows either... Please...

    Well I finally finished putting the first coat of SG on my black 2003 Ford SVT Mustang Cobra today.
