    New Paint Needs Polishing

    Couple weeks ago I posted about a dent in my door. Just got the car back from the body shop, I was told by several pros that PDR would not turn out perfect, so I went with the body shop. While they did a great job on the color matching and the dent removal, I have holograms in my paint for the...

    3m perfectit 3000 ultrafina

    Read a lot about this polish lately, so I looked into it at the local Napa store. After a bit of searching, they found an item number for it, but would have to get it from another warehouse. Cost was $58.00 plus tax for a quart. Thats a bit expensive compared to menzerna and optimum polishes. Is...

    Upholstery Stain

    Have a wash and wax coming up on a cdar, and the owner wants me to tackle a large stain in the seat. Food based stain, couple months old. It was cleaned at the time, not by me, but while the spill was cleaned up, a stain remained. What is the best OTC products to use on this, and do I need to...

    Pink Wax In March

    2 degrees on a sunny day in Nova Scotia, so the Audi got a coat of FK Pink Wax. Easy on and off even at this temperature. Camera doesn't do justice to the cars as it has a deep glow that just don't show up in the pictures. Will give it a good polish in the spring to get rid of the...

    Concave Pads

    When using concave pads, do you put the polish around the outside lip, or in the center? I used one the other day and it took quite a bit of pressure to even bring the center of the pad into play. Is this normal, or do you prefer the flat pads?

    PDR Candidate?

    Came out of the grocery store to find the worst an autpian can find, worse than my wife running away. The dent is below the mirror in the center of passenger door. Do this look like a paintless repair? No paint broken, the scuff marks came off with clay. Not a real deep dent, but unacceptable to...

    Zaino Z5

    Never used Zaino products before and am thinking about placing an order. In reading on their web site it states that Z5 the swirl remover is spread on the car, let dry for an hour or more than buffed off, and that it make take several coats to get rid of all the swirls. My question is, is Z5 a...

    Meguiars #20 or #21

    What is the difference between these two products? Both are called sealants, and both promise almost the same results. Which do you prefer, if either, and why? Thanks.

    Poli-Seal Uses

    I'm expecting a bottle of poli-seal soon and was wondering if anyone used it as a lsp, or as a polish and protect with something else. Is this a better all in one than klasse, or just different. It is supposed to have more correction ability than most AIO. Does anyone just use it as a polish. I...

    Autogeek Order

    Just got an order from AutoGeek, my first order from them. Very reasonable prices, very quick delivery and great customer service and the best shipping charges I have yet to have, and I'm in Nova Scotia so that is usually a concern in placing orders. I also got a 10 % autopia discount," thank...

    Op / 1z Ep / Blackfire

    For the fun of it, I did 2 passes with op with an orange pad on the pc on the hood and roof of the car, than 1 pass with a white pad with 1Z express polish, then put a coat of Blackfire All Finish Paint Protection. When I removed that, I lay the folded microfiber towel on the hood for a moment...

    FMJ Topped with IW

    Would this give a good fairly long lasting coverage? The car in question is a silver / gray Corolla.

    ksg application

    Using Klasse SG, do you use it as a wipe on wipe off, or let it dry first. The bottle says let dry, but I find it fairly hard to remove after it dries, and yea I did put it on very lightly. It is a bit sunny on the car, but not too hot. Maybe this makes it dry too fast and hard to remove. Should...

    Stripped the Car

    You know how you get bored with the same old. So yesterday I decided to start from scratch, washed with Simoniz wash and wax with carnuba, really nice lube in this car wash. Then I used white pad with the pc with einszett express polish on #4. I know this doesn't do much for correction, but the...

    first full JW Acrylic Jett wax job

    just for the fun of it I took off the Insulator wax and topped the car with JW acrylic Jett. First time I did the full car with it. No need for polishing or claying, did it a while ago, no swirls to speak of. My camera isn't much good but I'll try.

    Jeffs Autobady Wash

    Anyone use this product, does it lather well and have great lubrication during use? I have Acrylic Jett and Carnuba Jett and find them very top notch. Is their wash the same?
