Just stumbled across this when looking up Final Polish, seems like a longer lasting version. Has anyone tried it? How does it compare to "regular" Final Polish"? http://carpolishes.safeshopper.com/11/51.htm?599

I just stumbled across this site that states it is very important to let Congress know that those of us who want to perform DIY maintenance on our cars should continue to have the right to do so without the auto manufacturers interfering. Please have a look: http://www.righttorepair.org/

Hey, I'd like to put some fresh oil in my Audi 1.8T and I have found my existing oil filter wrench ( sorta like a tong type) to be insufficent at keeping a grip on my filter. Luckily I can reach my filter by standing over the engine and not having to drop the splash shield, etc, etc...

I'm having trouble finding Prepsol or a similar product locally. I assume it packs a bit more punch than using isopropyl alcohol, so I think it would be a good idea to have it on hand when needed. I know TOL's product called Klean has been mentioned here and seems to be a similar product...

A recent thread discussed Menzerna's polish for Ceramiclear paint ( a new innovative paint system by PPG that has debuted on new Mercedes Benzes). It seems that this paint could be distinct as to require a special polishing application ( i.e. special polish) to effectively and safely care for...

I stumbled across another kind of section cup that is supposed to be used for pulling out dents and dings. I'm pessimistic about its effectiveness. I wonder if it would work any better than Ding King. By chance,anyone have a set of these...

TOL says they do not fit the Lake Country pads? Hmm..What to do? I don't see how they don't, putting them over,say a Megs pad shouldn't make much difference :confused: http://store.yahoo.com/tolae/miculbon1.html

I just got back from a local Pep Boys and saw a compact 160 mph car dryer that can also be used inside the car. Comes with a carry bag for $30. I tried recalling the website but forgot and cannot find it after numerous Google searches. Brookstone.com carries the same item but it is out of them...

The leather in the seat of my gf's Honda Accord appears to havestretched or come loose some how to the point that a "bubble" has formed in the center. I'm not sure if this is comonplace for this type of car's seats or if any product regimen could help improve it, the only thing I thought of...

I believe I read a while back Autoglym is the only mfr right now that has polishes for this paint. I looked at the site but saw no mention of Ceramiclear. Can anyone tell me which polishes are the correct ones for this finish and I how/where I can purchase. Thanks!

Hi, Today I saw a new SL 55 AMG. I only detail for pay for this owner. I've detailed other SLs he owned in the past. This new SL55 is beautiful to say the least but he got it with those tough to clean wheels. My strategy would be to clean them regularly with car wash and the appropriate brush...

I just tested out a sample of a tire dressing called Hi Top Tire dressing by Huey Chemical Corporation. (http://www.hueychemical.com) Seems to be a unique dressing that offers the best of both worlds of tire dressings: is water based ,has no sling but offers a high gloss of clear...

I heard about this product a while ago but this is the first time i saw it. Sure seems like a hassle saver. Does anyone have an EZ Lug and does it really work well? http://www.browsermall.com/ezlug/

Can you use the 3m Perfect It Foam Polish Pad (pn 05725) with any backing plate, I assume it has a velcro backing like the rest of the pads we use?

I installed Xpel headlight protective film on my headlights back in October. I saw some mositure bubbles trapped between the material and the light when I was finished. I repeatedly tried to smooth them out with the provided squegee while having the high beams on and using a blow dryer. I got...

I just learned about rain barrels, sounds like a good idea especially if rain water isn't too contaminated to use in one's area: http://www.epa.gov/reg3p2p2/what-is-rainbarrel.pdf http://www.epa.gov/reg3p2p2/make-rainbarrel.pdf

I'm going to need something for my tarnished mid exhaust pipe. Before I order something like Heavy Metal Polish coarse grade, I learned about this polish, I could get it locally. Although designed for boats, I hope it can do the trick. Anyone use 3m Marine Metal Restorer and Polish...

The quantity of compounds/polishes on the market today is endless :rolleyes: Here's yet another one for your consideration. Anyone heard of it , use it, what do you think? http://autobodystore.net/Merchant2/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD&Product_Code=TFQ&Category_Code=M3

Heh, just as we were discussing the Cyclo and having one as well as a PC, I read about this Makita polisher: http://www.autogeek.net/bo6040.html Now I'm wondering if this polisher can solve the issue some non rotary users who want rotary results but are too terified to try one on their...
