With the holiday sales still somewhat in motion I am considering picking up a coating to attempt this spring I am still narrowing down between some products, but my main question is I. Regards to the prep side of the process I don`t think I I need to do any heavy cutting, and I already have...

Very subjective question, but what do you all prefer as a cost effective water spot / deep cleaning product for windows? Would Meg’s ultimate Polish or Compound work well? Of course I’d wipe down with a prep / IPA solution prior to any coating / sealant Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

So when I first got serious about detailing, (as serious as I can be with 2 DD’s and young boys riding in both cars) I bought products from a company who is excellent at marketing. As well as other products that didn’t work for me. I have since purchased replacement products from other...

Currently finishing up a bottle of CG’s microfiber detergent and looking for what is next to pick up I have no complaints about the CG’s detergent, seems to clean my MF’s well....but I have never tried anything else so I can’t really base it off any baseline or anything. Here is my question...

How often do most wash their wash mitts? After every wash, or is rinsing the dirt out and letting them air dry ok for a few washes? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Since this is my first year around serious auto detailing supplies I have the rookie question Do any companies such as The Autopia site, Auto Geek, Detailed Image do an actual Black Friday type of sale? Also if they do does anything big like steamers, extractors, buffers, vacuums and blowers...

My wife comes home from delivering some fundraising supplies from our oldest sons PTO stuff and says, “Dear, I don’t know what exactly I did, but when I was leaving so and so’s house I bumped something and heard a scrape.” By now it was dark so I decided to wait until this afternoon when I got...

This may seem like a silly question but here goes....I’ve noticed lately with some products I get that come in spray bottles that the sprayers are all but impossible to take off? It’s like when you turn them they catch on the threads of the bottle and I can’t ever get them off easily. If there...

Looking for some information and recommendations on a vacuum for a weekend detailer. I like the look of the metro’s and Etc but as a weekend guy non-pro I do not need to spend that much on a vacuum Any good shop vac type recommendations? Or just other recommendations I do know when we have a...

I was looking into some info on cleaning upholstery seats and came across the thread which the OP experimented with using a foam wood pad, a buffer, spot treatment, and foam upholstery cleaner. Question in cleaning the wool pad. I see there are wool pad cleaning spurs sold, but do I need this...

I wanted to take a little time and say thanks to everyone in here who always chimes in when I ask the typical newbie questions I ask. The knowledge I have found in here from all you.....pardon the phrase....”old/timers@ has been absolutely amazing. Considering a month or so ago I only thought...

Hopefully this weekend I am going to make my first attempt at LSP’ing our tires and wheels. For tires I have McKee’s 37 tire coating and Mother’s back to black rubber rejuvenator to clean with. For the wheels I have some wheel wax I got in sale. Thought about buying a coating, but I want to...

Pigging backing off PAdetailers thread on winter windshield washer fluid....what de-icer does everyone recommend? Sent from my SM-T580 using Tapatalk

From my research it does appear these are really 2 completely different types of product, but I have narrowed my winter tire protectio (and future I`d assume) down to these 2 products I`m looking more for reviews on how well the protection is. With winter coming there will be the salt and all...

I understand the purpose of foam sprayers. You can use it to foam your car to help pre-clean and to not have to use a complete 2 bucket method of you do not want to. You could also use it to foam tire, wheels, etc. What is the purpose of a product like the IK multi 2 pro sprayer? (Again not...

I am going to polish my 2012 Ford Fusion shortly with 3D speed and planning on using the Lake Country flat pads in green on my PC to do the polishing. I am looking at these 2 "sealants" to use and am looking for a recommendation on which of the 2. I`m preferencing why I`m looking at these 2...

How does everyone (I`m assuming people do) prep and protect wheel wells for the winter months? Especially people in the mid-Atlantic/ north east. Are there any spray type coating products worthwhile? I`ve been looking at something like Gyeon wet-coat....or am I looking at the wrong type of...

I don’t know if this makes sense or not with how I am going to ask this but I’ll try. I bought a gallon of 3D pink for a normal maintenance wash....but is there any sort of soap I should be using like once a month or so that is more of a deeper clean? Does this question make sense? Sent...

I have some Meg`s balc wax I have used for the past year or so and I was going to use it but I have a question if I should. I feel for the CG`s hype (or maybe not, I`m new with no real experience on good products yet, but that isn`t the point - the point and question is this I have polished...
