    Instead of using Iron-X and then Tar-X, Ive started using the TRIX combo product...I use it a few times a year on my coated vehicle and it works pretty well. Just wondering if anyone else makes a similar, or even better, combo product like this. Just for convenience and time savings.

    Anyone have thoughts on Kamikaze Coatings...

    As spring gets near, I'll be applying a new coating to my dark gray truck. I recently saw the Kamikaze coatings. I like sharp reflection versus deep (wax like) gloss...so the Miyabi coating is the one I was considering. In the past I've used CQUK and Opti-Coat. I know CQUK lasts for a long...

    Anyone putting something OVER a coating?

    I applied CQUK to a vehicle, and although it's nice...I've seen better. It had a darkening effect on the metallic gray color, but I feel that I've lost the sharp reflections that I used to get with sealant product like Prima HydroMAX, Opti-Seal, etc, etc. I like the maintenance aspect of the...

    Is BF Wet-Ice Over Fire that great?

    I have a dark gray Audi and have been looking for something that has both depth and razor-shire. Is this product (or combo) as great as it sounds? This car doesn't see much rain at all, driven on nice days, and is garage kept. Longevity isn't as important as the appearance.

    Best Powerwasher Advice?

    I've never had a powerwasher before, and was curious about what everyone is using (for washing vehicle specific). Gas or Electric? Everyone I've ever known with gas has had engine issues eventually. Brand? Specs? Seems like the electric (other than the cord) would be a little nicer and...

    Too new to wax, seal, coat??? How new is too new?

    I'm picking up a new Audi this weekend. This vehicle was ordered specific in early September...so I'm not sure exactly when painting occurs in the process of the build. Obviously this is a factory baked finish...but is it too soon to put an LSP on? I've asked the dealer NOT to prep or detail...

    Recommends for new Audi paint...appearance is priority.
