So I though this stuff looked cool, nice bottle, nice label, I should have dug into the reviews some more but I figured if it's been on the shelf at Walmart for more than a year, it has to be pretty good. Let down. Its not slick at all, in fact it doesn't feel like you put anything on the...

I picked up a 94 Mustang GT late last year. Its a driver, not a museum peace, like we used to call them back in the day at the car dealership, a pinata, hit in many places, lots of paintwork, the hood was painted very hastily and has some wrinkling clear, not orange peel, but wrinkles. TW 1...

I definitely think that is a big part of it. Very few innovative products out there, mainly new labels and graphics. Product sellers are very cautious, you don't see many direct comparisons anymore. Mike Phillips nailed it, what two decades ago, focus on results, not products. It does take a...

I ordered a smaller bottle of Uber to test out, definitely some good reviews out there, seems its pretty slick which I like. I did an ONR (vintage version not a new bottle) was the other day and wow was it grabby compared to the DG.

Touchup paint is an art, one that I haven't mastered yet even after, well probably three decades of messing around with it. I haven't used Dr. ColorChip though lots of people seem to like it, but I do like Langka. Honestly you can make your own Langka, its about 3/4 rubbing compound with 1/4...

Not sure what the draw is with social media. It really seems to attract people that can't even do a Google search. I'm glad we have a decent, if small group here.

This is too good to be true, but I still bought it. Clear coat repair. Man if it can work on those deeper scratches not quite down to the color coat.....

I wish I could offer more, but FK425 wasn't any slicker than Optimum instant detailer, it didn't look better either. Any spray wax outlasted it. I never used it on a dirty car, so I can't comment on how it cleaned. I bought a bottle of it and tried so many times to like it. Since you have so...

Just a quick update, I'm really liking this stuff. It is just soooo slick, I don't think there is anything else close. I had some tree sap hit the car pretty good and it literally just wiped of like it landed on a Teflon lined nonstick pan. Crazy. Looks wise, it's very reflective, not deep...

Well after some more use I decided I really liked the One and Done. Napa Online has some stock still at reasonable prices, I picked up enough that it will probably go bad before I'm out of it. This stuff and a topper is all I'm going to need for a while. There is stuff that cuts faster and...

Excellent review. My stance on pressure washers is buy the cheapest one that will do the job for you, they are disposable items, at least the electric ones are. For those of you that haven't discovered it yet, directtoolsoutlet.com is a fantastic place to get Ryobi stuff, if you wait for a...

There is a good chance it was my application method however keep in mind the instructions say you need to do a wet wipe down afterwards, which I did not do. Not a big deal on a silver car but a dark colored car would have probably shown the effects more. I'm excited to wash it soon and see how...

Well, like I predicted the magic pop did wash away with rain, though it wasn't instant like some other consumer products, it was pretty gradual. But what remained was a pretty slick surface. Also before it rained, I could see on the roof of the car where my orbital applicator left some trails...

I know this is going to sound funny, I even waited a few days before posting, but have you tried Turtle Wax One and Done? It finishes as good as M205 without the greasy mess, maybe better. Only catch is, if rumor is true, it has been discontinued. Its really a pleasure to work with, cuts...

I tried how it does on fading hard plastic trim vs my favorite spray wax, OCW, and it did surprisingly well. I think that darkening effect translates into pop on less than well maintained paint.

So I got to use this a few times, it really reminds me of FK425, not super slick when first applied, but once cured it gets nice and slick. It seems to have a balanced look. I can't say I'm head over heels after first use, but it does smell really good, like a pina colada. I got rid of FK425...

I saw the Collinite stuff is getting some good attention, I'll have to keep an eye on it. I'm trying to stick to one new detailing product a month...why does that seem to hard??? Lol....

Well, this one continues to get good reviews so I ordered a gallon. Hope I didn't make a mistake as the small bottle was only $10 cheaper than a whole gallon.

Its been a little while Don, are you still using this stuff? I have mixed feelings about it. I like the look, but the durability for me is just not there. Its hardly better than a normal water based shine, but as you noted its is thick and for me more difficult to apply.

The key in doing this right, no matter what the equipment is to not water log the batting underneath the carpet. Go easy on the liquid and don't drench anything and you will be fine. Stick a box fan or similar in the window for the afternoon in the sun and it will be dry by evening.
