How can I remove nitro seal? I'm going to install a clear bra on my bumper and the instructions say to remove any wax or sealant. Will dawn or 3m adhesive remover do it?

I haven't detailing in a while, because my previous car was pretty messed up from some rock damage, etc. Now I have a new car and want to start fresh on it. 1. Wash it - I have ONR for this 2. Clay it - I am leaning towards HD Nano Prep. I know there is also Speedy Surface Prep and Nano...

I'm almost out of my original Meguiars APC D101 and am wondering which one to get...any recommendations? APC+ D103 seems nice in that its basically what I used before, and its now low-sudsing which would work great in my extractor. But I've read it shouldn't be used on paint - so I couldn't...

I've been out of things for a little while and am looking on buying some new stuff. I see everyone raving here about Uno and Poxy... I am just curious if there are any alternative products that people think as just as good? I can only find Uno and Poxy at the 3d store and nowhere else. They...

I got a minivan that had food spilled into the carpet...it sat unnoticed for a few months and there is a slightly pungent odor in the vehicle. I shampooed all the carpet (with extractor) and used febreeze on everything but the smell is still there. I think perhaps it got into the carpet pad...

I know there have been some threads on this in the past but none that recent so I'm going to start a new one.

I have some acid rain damage in my paint that I wanted to see if I could make it less apparent. The foam pads weren't do anything so I decided to step up to wool. The problem is the wool pad was brand new and started throwing "bits" of wool all over the car. I had to stop because there was so...

I bought my car exactly two weeks ago. And it already has acid rain damage on the roof and on the trunk lid. This is a 2003 Honda Accord...I know Honda has crappy paint but I figured it would be better than this. The dealer had put on some kind of stuff to protect (guaranteed they said) but...

I got this at my dealer (owned by Hendricks). This stuff is actually pretty amazing. There were some stains on a 90 Honda Accord seat that I could not get out with EF Upholstery Cleaner, EF Spot Remover, or Meguiars APC+. Put this stuff on there and it instantly came off. Likewise in a...

I waxed my black car with blackfire topped with sourveran wax. I parked it under some trees and a few days later is was covered in sap all over it. Do you guys know of any products that might keep sap from sticking quite so easily? Due to logistics and space of the driveway I have to...

I just wanted to say you guys were dead on about aquapel being the best. I've tried rainx and diamondite and they don't compare. Today I was driving through a rain storm on the interstate and the water was just flying off like crazy...and when I arrived at work my windshield was completely dry...

I just got a Honda Accord 2003. I wanted a V6 with Nav which are in high demand so I had to order it. I was told the manufacturer date and that it would take 2 weeks after that to get it. So two weeks exactly it came in and I went and picked it up. It had 2 miles on it and straight off the...

Just curious if anyone here has had reactions or allergies to any products? And do you use gloves? I've got large red bumps on my arms and a few rashes too after I used invisible glass, sprayway, and diamondite (not sure which one caused it). This has happened on 2 seperate ocassions...

Ok guys I have gone through hundreds of threads and am as confused as ever. What is the best towel for cleaning glass? I have some pakshaks but they are a little too plush for this. I also have some CMA "power scrubber" but were not impressed. I need something with a low nap, no lint...

I tried this today on all of my windows (which have had water spots for like 5 years because I didn't know any better). Anyway you wipe it on and let it dry to a haze, then wipe it off. Going on is a bit hard since it has the consistency of toothpaste but coming off was really easy. It took...

Just my opinion...stay away from this...as far away as you can. I went to use it today and it unscrewed itself from the threading adapter and proceeded to hit my windshield in two places...now I have two permanent marks on the windshield that will never come out. There is a warning about...

I'm looking for some kind of cart (wagon) that I could use to haull my stuff from the garage to the car while I am detailing. Any suggestions? I kindof like the Griots one but I am sure there is something equivalent that is cheaper It needs to be able to go over grass and also...

I used a foam pad yesterday to put on blackfire...but I could not clean up the bad. I tried soap and water but it did nothing...blackfire doesn't seem to be water soluable. I finally ended up just tossing the pad into the trash. I was just curious if there is anything I could use that would...

I am buying a new accord and decided the extended warranty isn't worth it. I've had my previous accord for 5 years and never needed it. I got to thinking the only reason I would want one is for the roadside assistance. So I looked into AAA for just that. I am pretty much ready to join but...

I tried out Diamond Cut with my PC on 5 using an orange pad and also a yellow pad. It does a fantastic job of getting out swirls...but it doesn't touch anything else. Even faint scratches I could not even feel would stay there... Am I doing something wrong or is this as aggressive as it...
