So early last year I went through my stock of Cascade. I could put just about anything in the dishwasher and it would come out clean. The next batch turned all my black plasticware grey with hardwater deposits. I switched to Finish and that stopped things from getting white but got nothing...

All stains being different, what's in your arsenal to tackle the toughest stains? Me: -Megs APC+ -Folex (great on mud stains) -Megs Degreaser -Spot Shot Aerosol -Aquanet Hair Spray (for ink) -WD-40 (awesome on tough grease stains and tar) -Peroxide (for when it won't come out, makes it...

Last winter I decided to do a bit of research as to why I was getting waterspot etching. I strongly suspected Zaino was causing the problem. My goal in this test was to prove that Zaino is more succeptable to waterspotting than other products. I chose several well known products for various...

Accumulator's dialog with me in the car auction thread reminded me of a funny story trying to buy a Porsche Cayman. I'd love to hear other stories of car dealers and their BS. Here is one of many I have. I was thinking about picking up a Porsche Cayman. A Jag dealer close by had an example...

I recently saw a post on another site that said this forum was "dead." I'm not exactly sure why that remark was made, perhaps because we aren't busy leg humping each other about the product of the week or how we just got another 20 gallons of whatever because it was a "BOGO." The reason I...

I keep seeing incredible durability reports... X lasted so long, its been on there almost 6 months!!! Oh, and the car is garage parked. :rolleyes: I'm not trying to be a hater or anything but any LSP on a garaged car lasts forever. I put Optiseal on my dad's Passat two years ago. It was...

So what are your goals for next year? Apply LSPs via machine (I always *THINK* its going to be faster to not drag out the machine, it isn't) Pay more attention to trim Pay more attention to wheels and wheel wells

PITTSBURGH (AP) — A flood of gooey muck dropped from a tanker truck disabled more than 100 cars and damaged an unknown number of other vehicles along a nearly 40-mile stretch of the Pennsylvania Turnpike, officials said. A leaking valve on a tanker spread driveway sealant over the eastbound...

Rarely do I go out on a limb and rave about a product. I can usually find fault with just about any product. That said, I have finally settled on my tire shine of choice. Mothers FX. Things I love about it, from most to least. -When it does wear off, it doesn't leave a mess behind -Very...

2012 New Products & Improved Products Nothing earth shattering. Surprised they finally released a rinseless wash. Too bad its not any cheaper than ONR.

What are some LSP's that give that hardcore laminated plastic look? A few I like looks wise: -Zaino Z2 (non Pro) -Duragloss 111 -Rejex -Menz FMJ

If you could ask a detailing celebrity any question (and get an honest answer) what would it be? I'd ask Sal Zaino: If Zaino didn't exist, what product would you use on your car?

I've been seeing Megs D120 get a lot of airtime on another forum. Honestly, glass is my most hated aspect of detailing. I dread it. I'm terrible at it. It sucks. In desperation, I grabbed a sample size from Rick @ ADS. I've been using invisible glass and a wealth of other stuff that...

First things first, I have to say, mad props to those who are shooting quality videos. Photography is cake compared to good video. For this short clip, I don't want to say how many retakes I had to do. :tongue2: It seems like whenever you hit the record button, you get marbles in your mouth...

I had a huge internal struggle about this stuff. OptiCoat seems great but is it all that? I love shiny paint, I was worried that OptiCoat would not give me the looks I liked. I also love waxing, this was going to take away from that. However this car is parked outdoors 24/7 and there are...

A few nice deals $1.64 $8.48 $5.48 A few other items like red shop towels and a few AA products were on clearance. I checked another target and nothing was on clearance so YMMV.

Just reminding everyone, temps are going to start falling soon and ordering products isn't a grand idea when temps fall below freezing. Many of us have had products arrive that are no longer usable. For many of us the next month or so is the last window before you start taking chances.

VIP Special - Optimum Opti-Coat 2.0 Permanent Paint Coating AG has opticoat as their VIP special $45 is a nice deal

jfelbab posted this link in another thread, though others might want to get a look: Consumer Reports 2011 Car Wax Buying Guide I think they did a nice job finally. Some of the things I liked: -A wax isn't going to improve the shine of a new car (guessing they mean well polished and just...
