    Clearkote RMG, does it separate?

    Received a bottle of RMG yesterday. Surprisingly it seems very watery and has separated into a creamy looking fluid and a darker red clear fluid. Shaking it brings it into mixture, but there seems to be quite a few flakes of product and buildup on the bottom that isn't mixing. Did I get a...

    Backing plate mfgs? Meguiar's vs Lake Country

    I am going to purchase a 6.5" set of the LC CCS pads. I see that LC recommends their 4 7/8" backing plate for these pads over their 6.25" backing plate, probably because of the extra spacing between the pad and the plate. The meguiar's 5" and 6" backing plates will work with the CCS pads as...

    '06 Brilliant Red Audi A3 detail

    Had the car for a year . . . and the car was pretty swirled up due to a dealer car wash (despite a big fat NO WASH" written on the service form). Later found out that the dealer washes with brushes and a cotton mop :shocked This car also has a really bad clearbra on the hood. The job was...

    Menzerna FMJ not durable?

    This is my first time using the Menzerna products. Prior to menzerna, I used the 3m professional line with Blitz wax . . . then Klasse twins (old school high VOC stuff) + Blitz wax . . . and the Zaino line with Z2pro. Last detail was in October of 2005 with Zaino Z2 and the car was still beading...

    Finally purchased Menzerna!

    After several years of using the Klasse AIO/SG/Blitz Wax combo, I opted to try out Zaino last summer on my new 2006 Audi A3. Zaino has fared me quite well, however I wasn't crazy about the rigid steps and lack of paint polish in their kit. Instead of purchasing Z-PC for my spring detail, I opted...

    Need help deciding which sealant to use.

    I'm a long-time member of Autopia despite what my join date and post count would indicate. Purchased Klasse twins in either 2000 or 2001 from CMA. Yes I did a search and came up with three sealants. I just purchased a new 2006 Audi A3 in Brilliant Red. Unfortunately the car is parked outside...
