I am about to tackle my new boat, a 1996 Bayliner Cierra 2655. Basically, it is in pretty good shape, but I want to polish and seal it. My question regarding wet sanding is how to go about it; is this a process done with a PC (I have one - quite a bit of car detailing experience) or is it a...

Happy Thanksgiving to all of our Canadian members. As everyone knows (or maybe doesn't know), Thanksgiving is a celebration of a bountiful harvest and dates back to the Pilgrims early arrival in America (befor there were actual countries here). Since Canada's climate is more severe than that...

Okay. So I have some time on my hands and thought I would see if I can cause some trouble here. It's about an acronym - more specifically, the acronym for 'microfiber'. Currently, the use of "MF" is automatically (usually) associated with microfiber. However, it also has other connotations...

My black beauty, 2000 Accord, was previously owned by a salesman who put a lot of highway miles on it. The windshield has picked up a LOT of very small rock chips. They cannot normally be seen except when driving into the sun or at night in oncoming lights. Except for all these 'scars' the...

I asked this question over on DC - I'm just trying to cover all the bases so don't shoot me. I have decided to take the plunge and buy a rotary. There seems to be a lot to choose from, but like everything else, I am sure that there are some preferred packages. I think I would like a...

I have decided to take the plunge and buy a rotary, so I can play with the big boys. There seems to be a lot on the market - what is a popular brand & model amongst the DC fraternity?

Anyone have any advice/preference for a glaze to use under EX or EX-P; or am I out to lunch, as usual.

Finally figured out this camera thingy. I think. Here is my ride after: 1. SSR3 w/PC 2. DACP w/PC 3. SSR1 w/PC 4. PPP by hand 5. EX x 2 by hand, 24 hours apart 6. EX-P x 1 by hand 24 hours after EX Now if I can just get this photo attached

I have an Accord with leather interior. Except it's not ALL leather, right? Some of the seat is leather and some isn't? Am I right about this?? So, here's my question. How do I clean and treat? How do I tell where the leather ends and the vinyl begins? Will it hurt the vinyl to clean and...

I know it has probably been on here a thousand times, but can anyone tell me how to get a muffler and tailpipe extension looking clean and shiny. I have a 2000 Accord and the muffler sags down under the rear bumper like it was a designer's afterthought. I love the car, but this has to be...

Hope this doesn't sound like a knock against Megs, but I just finished QD'ing my black beauty with Megs QD (over EX-P) and, to my utter dismay, the finish seemed to be cloudy and dull. To be certain, I put on another layer of EX-P on half my trunk deck, and sure enough, the Megs side was...

This is for my fellow Canucks, and our American cousins too! I had an order from "CarCareSmart" of Burnaby BC <www.carcaresmart.com> and wanted to put in a plug for the great service I received from Alex and the staff. Two pads that I purchased came apart after the first use and after...

I am firmly convinced that there is little, if any, real difference between the different brands of car wash liquids available in the market today. There is usually some kind of sale on some kind or other brand whenever you go into Walmart, Target, or whatever and buying the cheapest thing...

Help!! I have just ruined two white pads!!##$$ They both tore around the velcro pad on the back. Don't know what I did wrong, but wasn't doing anything 'rugged' in either case. Had them on my PC and believe the damage may have occured when I was running at '6' using SSR1 (in both cases)...

I know this had been discussed (maybe to death), but I can't remember the advice. Can Poorboys EX-P be layered? and if so, what is the wait/cure time? Also, can EX-P be topped with EX? Also, again, does anyone know the reason for the recommended 60 minute wait time before removing PPP? Just...

Good morning. I ran across a product called "Auto Magic" marketed by "Sparkle Auto Detailing Products". It looks like it's reasonably priced. Does anyone have any experience with it?

This is Ron from Calgary, Canada. I'm new to DC and new to detailing, although I have been a car nut all my life. Just getting aquanted with the 'art and science' of detailing and am enjoying every minute of it!! I have a 2000 Honda Accord - black and loaded. I love it and try to take care...

I have a 2000 Honda Accord with a front bumper that resembles a teenager with bad acne (stone chips, etc). Can anyone tell me how to get this looking like new again?
