Well I have a new problem with my car. I noticed that on the outside of all the windows of my car, the headlights and tail lights, and the grill/mirrors/doorhandles (all of which were not re-painted), all have some sort of funky stuff on them. On the painted pieces, it almost looks like...

Hi all, I'm wondering if Mothers Carnauba Cleaner Wax will remove Oxidation? Thanks:)

I know there is a debate (or maybe not so much of a debate;)) as to how well Z5 fills swirls. Z5 filled my swirls, but I was told this was because they were the light. Anyrate, I'm wondering if anyone can explain how polymer sealants like Z5, and NXT, fill swirl marks?:confused: What's...

I put several coats of Z5 with Zfx on my car about a week ago, but I still have a lot of the stuff still left over, and I don't have the heart to throw it out. Can the Z5 w/ Zfx sit in my fridge for a couple weeks, and still be good? Or should I just chuck it?

First off, I owe so much thanks for every member on this message board for all the shared knowledge:bow . I tried the "newspaper" method of polishing my windows, and boy does it look killer. Looks awesome, and puts my old newspapers to good use, what's not to like? Anyrate, my question was...

I plan to get a nice car when I graduate from college in two years, and make my Civic my daily driver. Of all of these cars, which is the most reliable? And secondly, what do you all think is the coolest? I'm leaning towards the Nissan Z or the Z4.

I'm confused on the difference between the Ultimate Detailing towel and the Concours Buffing Towel (other than the fact that one is WW MF and the other one isn't), and when I should use one and when I should use the other.

Hey all, can you wash all of these things together? Blue Perl microfiber applicator pads Ultimate Drying Towel Ultimate Detailing Towel I'm in love with the Autopia Ultimate Drying Towel:D Can't wait to order the Blue Perl microfiber applicator pads and Ultimate Detailing Towels.:D

I'm thinking about topping my multiple coats of Zaino with P21S. I have two questions though about it. 1. Will the P21S fill swirls? (yeah I know I should polish them out, but for the sake of argument I just want to know if it'll fill it)... In the past, I've used el-cheapo waxes (zymol...

Can you apply Z5 with ZFX in the evening, and let it dry overnight and buff off in the morning? I applied it about an hour ago but I'm tired and it got cold and I don't feel like messing with it tonight if I don't have to lol.

Ack, I just washed my car and put some of the new Z5 on it and the car looks god aweful. I had a feeling it would, since it's swirled up pretty bad. The yahoos who re-painted my car buffed it but didn't bother to polish it. In addition, after 3 months, I see my paint has suffered alot. It's...

I saw an episode on Mythbusters, a show on the discovery channel, where they tested the myth that soda cleaned metal better than metal cleaners. The myth goes, that soda rubbed on metal with aluminum foil is supposed to shine metal. They did a test and they found that this did shine metal...

I've taken Sal's suggestions in the past and have used nothing but 100% white cotton towels, and stayed away from MF towels. OK, I must admit that I tried MF towels once that I got from Wal-Mart and they just streaked and soaked up hardly any water at all. But...my good cotten towels feel like...

Ok, I know this has probably been debated time and time again, but what Zaino product looks best on a black car? Z2 or Z5?

I looked uner the "reviews" section, but I didn't see any reviews on this. Anyone tried Z-12 Clear-View Glass Polish , and if so what are your thoughts on it?

Hi everyone, I'm going to do a big pre-spring detail job on my car in a couple weeks and I have a question. I have had my windshield replaced about 2 months ago, and I notice that it has a sticky residue on the outside of it. When I am driving in rain, I notice that my wipers streak the glass...

Hi all, I currently have one of those fast and the furious fart mufflers on my car, and I guess I'm finally aging out of rice:o. I am going to take it off, but I want to go the other route. I want a mega-quiet exaust, or as quiet as possible. I still have my factory muffler, so I can just put...

Hey all, I'm tired of modding my engine and exterior of my car, and am going to bring my Civic back to stock with the exception of the window tint and rims in the next couple of months. I was thinking about buying dynamat or something similiar and lining the doors, floor, and firewall with...

I just got my car repainted and I'm not positive but I believe I have buffer marks all over my car, either that or the body shop waxed/washed it and swirled it up heavily. I guess the only test will be once the paint has cured enough then I can put on some type of filler wax and see what that...

Hi all, Happy holidays! I'm in the mood to do some interior detailing due to the nice weather today and tomorrow. I've been using some low-gloss armor all dash board cleaner/conditioner and I'm generally pleased. I know the saying "if it ain't broke then don't fix it", and the...
