    When that slick feeling is gone...

    You know how slick the vehicle feels after putting on a coat of sealant and/or wax. Well, after even just a week and another wash it seems to be completely gone. Now I see continued beading, great beading, but that slick feeling is gone. What is it that has just happened then? Since there is...

    Has anyone ever seen this before?

    I went out this morning to wash the truck and found black waterspots! I've never seen anything like this before. There were also some whitish waterspots if you will, which I have not seen before either. Has anyone ever seen such a thing? There have been no fires in the area followed by rain...

    Question about Klasse SG

    Let's say you use AIO and follow up with a couple layers of SG. Can you top the SG with anything? If so, what works well? I mean, can you follow the SG with a sealant and then perhaps, optionally, a wax?

    Captioned Pictures - add your own!!

    I was up to my mother's yesterday, and a mutual friend of my brother's laughs at me for sending him pics of the truck and car fter I detail them; well, he andmy brother both do - separately and when together. Anyway, my brother had this idea to take almost 50 pics of the car - mostly dumb pics...

    What in the world happened to my backing plate?

    I was using my pc 7424 tonight on a friends jeep, and I started getting some wobbling and all of a sudden the pad came off. So, I inspected the backing plate and it was really hot and in fact, the center area had melted, was very hot to the touch and the velcro was warping and some lesser...

    Does anyone apply AIO with a pc?

    And if so, do you mist the pad first? What speed setting and how long do you work it? Do you use the polishing pad?

    No masterpiece, but I'm done and tired

    Well, yesterday and today I got to use a pc for the first time. I detailed a Yukon for some guy I work with. It didn't turn out as well as I had hoped, but that is not due to the pc or the products I used by any means. This one made me really tired. But at least the guy and his wife were very...

    Marring/hazing - how do I know if I've got it?

    Ok, well, if you saw my other thread from earlier today... "Cutting Pad?", then you know that I used my new pc with a Meg's cutting pad and SSR2. In bright sunlight, what I am noticing is... not swirls (those are in this Yukon with a vengence before started on it), but more of a slight shifting...

    Cutting Pad?

    I just finished using the Meg's yellow polishing pad with SSR2 on a setting of 5. I worked it for a good 7 to 8 minutes anyway - just the one back door. The swirls, or perhaps more like scratches are bad, but this lightened them up quite a bit and a real improvement... however, I'm wondering...

    Counter-weight?

    I am planning on using my new pc (7424) today, but I've been reading through some threads and I read something about a plate, counter-weight and of course then the pad. I bought the pc from PAC and the Meguiar's backing plate/pad kit. I've checked the manual that came with it and I've read an...

    Would this work?

    I have a Yukon to detail this weekend for someone from work. I'm going to wash and clay it, and that leads me to my question: If after washing it, rather than drying, what if, using the quick detailer spray while the vehicle still has some water on it, I clayed? Would this work? Ok idea or bad...

    Some pics of new car

    Used the Wolfgang's Paint Enhancer and followed up with the Wolfgang's Sealant. Didn't have time to clay, will get to that in a month or so, but the paint was pretty clean, but yea, it does need clayed - was just too short on time last weekend. It was pretty overcast so I didn't get too many...

    New Car - what now exactly?

    Well, just got the wife a new car today. It's Navy Blue. Told the dealer not to wash it and they didn't. We washed it tonight. Sunday I want to clay it and of course put a sealant on it. My question is: should I go over it with polish after claying or skip that since it's brand new? Oh and I...

    PAC/Dwayne and Excellent Customer Service!!

    I wanted to relate my most recent experience with Premium Auto Care and Dwayne. As always, he provided excellent customer service from the start. I say from the start because I placed my order for a couple small items and then one large item - the Vac-n-Blo on Wednesday, March 24th. Since the...

Well, this is with the next...

    Anyone ever leave Liquid Souveran on overnight? If so, how'd it turn out? Was it difficult to remove then?
