    Sonus Acrylic Glanz with Jeff's AJ?

    I've got a bottle of Prime, AJ, and Acyrlic Gloss in the mail and am thinking about using them on my GTO after I polish with Menzerna. I have a full bottle of Sonus Acrylic Glanz on the shelf that I bought with my first two bottles of the Klasse Twins a couple of years ago and was wondering if...

    UPP topped with Signature Series?

    Anybody have any experience with this combo? I'm going to be doing this tomorrow to my Machine Silver Metallic Corvette and was wondering if anybody had any reason to advise against doing so. I have never topped UPP in the past, but have some Sig. I need to get rid of. Thanks.

    Menzerna PO106FF...which pad via PC?

    I received my sample of this polish today from flatstick and am going to be using it on my 2004 Corvette Z06. I know they have pretty hard clearcoats but I'd like to stay away from a cutting pad if possible because the paint is not in bad shape... just has never been polished. Does this polish...

    What to use on scratched/discolored black plastic kick panel?

    I have a nasty whitish gray scuff obviously from one of the clowns at the dealership on the driver's side footwell near the rounded edge by the driver's side door. I cannot get it out, but so far all I have tried is Poorboy's Trim Restore. It has cleaning agents in it so I thought that if it...

    Poorboy's Natural Look and Trim Restore praises

    I have only been using these two products for a couple of months and I have fallen in love with them both. They're so easy to use and yet are so effective. I use the Trim Restore on rubber trim, moldings, wheel wells, etc. and Natural Look on door panels, dash, kickboards, etc. They are...

    http://www.autogeek.net/pisiseiispof.html I just got a can of the "old" one in the mail yesterday. :hairpull

    One pad for entire car?

    I am going to be using IP/FPII on my GTO when the polishes arrive early next week and have a question regarding pad useage. First of all, I'm not sure whether I can get away with using a polishing pad with the IP. My car has wash induced marring... no serious swirls, so I'd hate to take a...

    SSR2.5/SSR1 vs. IP/FPII

    How do these polishes compare? Right now I have the SSRs and I really like them but am running a little low on 2.5 and am either going to order more of it, or the Menzerna polishes. Will I be able to tell much of a difference between them? Is there something else from Menzerna I should...

    Wolfgang Finishing Glaze?

    Has anybody tried this product? It's got very mild abrasives in it and is to be used after polish, pre-wax/pre-sealant. The pre-sealant caught my eye. I wonder if it doesn't have many oils in it (leads to less desirable look, better durability) or has plenty of oils in it and lends itself to...

    What to use on scratched CDs?

    I've got one stubborn scratch (that sure doesn't look like much) on one of my cds that only interferes with my favorite song on the cd :mad: I have tried AIO but that didn't work. I noticed Clearkote has a cd repair kit and was wondering what product they may use in that? I have most of the...

    SSR1/cutting pad vs. SSR2.5/polishing pad

    I have been trying to work through this conundrum for a while now and can't quite seem to figure it out. Assuming all work is done via PC, what would the difference between these two combos really be? If you're supposed to start with the least aggressive combo, would you go SSR1/polishing pad...

    Just ordered 4" pad kit from Excel...

    Is there anything I should be careful of when using the 4" pads? Is there any better of a chance of damaging the clearcoat using, say, a 4" cutting pad with SSR2.5? That's about the most aggressive I'll ever get for trouble spots (damn cats on the hood). Can't wait to try them out...

    Are there and MFs with ultra plush on both sides?

    I use the PakShak Ultra Plushes for QD duty and I just love them, but I don't really need the side with the finer nap for QD removal. I use the ultra fines for polish removal, and the CBT for final buffing. So I have been looking for a nice, two sided plush MF for dedicated QD duty. Is there...

    YAY! Sonus Acrylic Spritz is back!

    This is one of my top three favorite QDs. I have found it works great over any sealant, and contrary to the labelling on my bottle I got a couple of years ago, it has worked great over carnauba as well (however I much prefer the Sonus Carnauba Spritz for 'nuba duty). The smell is heavenly. I...

    Which sealants will bond well over VM/RMG?

    I am looking to do VM/RMG/sealant/carnauba on my Harley and am wondering which of my sealants will work well here. I have heard EX-P works well over the Clearkote glazes. I have Zaino, Wolfgang, EX-P, OCW, SG, UPP, and NXT in the way of sealants.... if you consider NXT a sealant. Anyways...

    Boil MF's for deep cleaning?

    Based on the questionable credibility Adam (www.adamspolishes.com) has created for himself through his less than ideal washing techniques portrayed in his online videos, I had to question his recommendation to place MF's in boiling water for deep cleaning. I had never heard this elsewhere and...

    Is Meg's #34 hard on LSP?

    I remember reading some speculation that #34 Final Inspection had some stiffer cleaning agents in it than other QD's and was harder on LSP's than other QDs. I wonder if anything else has come up regarding this? I can buy it locally by the gallon, and it really is a pleasure to work with, but I...

    Does anyone else still buy CDs?

    Every Tuesday when the new releases come out, I'm in the store and probably buy at least two CDs a week. In the last 2 months, I've probably bought 15 new cds. I've bought the new Disturbed, Ra, Cold, Gorillaz, Slipknot live, Shinedown, Nickelback, Foo Fighters, Seether, Audioslave...

    Prime vs. AIO

    I understand these are the same type of product. With all the rumors buzzing that the new VOC compliant formulation of AIO is not as stout as the original in terms of cleaning ability, I have started to wonder about Prime. How do these two compare in terms of application/removal, durability...
