    Any other place to get CG stuff?

    I had a horrible experience today with someone at CG in regards to an order I placed a few days ago. It wasn't so bad that I feel the need to blackball them, but if I can get their stuff at a reasonable price without going directly through them then that's what I'd prefer. Anybody sell CG...

    Zymol Detail 16oz. $2.99

    I was out and about today for work and ended up in a small city outside of Sacramento, Woodland. I was on my way to see a patient when I realized that I had 30 minutes to kill before our appointment. There was a Big Lots! right down the street from her house so I stopped in and found some pretty...

    DG 105: Pleasantly suprised

    I used 105 for the first time this weekend as the sole polish on a black Expedition and was pleasantly suprised by it. The truck's paint had a haze that I couldn't explain, other than looking like someone had applied a chemical of some sort and let it dry, and 105 made easy work of it. It didn't...

    Chemical Guys Citrus Wash & Gloss

    My jug of NXT is getting low so i'm shopping around for a new product to try, has anyone ever tried this stuff? A gallon of it only costs $18.95, so the price is definitely right, I just want to get some feedback on it to see if it's something I should consider.

    ClearKote's Vanilla Moose Wax hand glaze......................

    smells like Vanilla again!!! I remember when they first put the fragrance in there and it ate up the bottles. Then they were shipping it without the fragrance and it was just horrible, made you wonder why they kept "Vanilla" in the name. But I just rcvd some products from them and the...

    Meguiar's HyperWash, is it worthy?

    Has anybody used it before? A gallon of it runs about $30 and it boasts a 400:1 dilution ratio. For those who have used it, what's your take on it.

    Anyone mix HT levelers with anything?

    I have a 02 S430 to do this weekend and the paint looks like this all over I have a rotary and a PC and was hoping to kill the swirls with an IP/RMG combo, but im not so sure. If need be, I have medium and heavy cut levelers from Hi Temp but those products are a little on the difficult...

    "Safest" pad for noob w/rotary

    I have a detail to do next weekend on a 2004 Mercedes Benz S430, it's black and has heavy swirls all over. I own a rotary and a PC and I'm having serious doubts that my PC could handle this job by itself. That being said, I've only used my rotary once on my own vehicle and loved the results...

    After you apply your wax...............

    What do you use to remove it? Do you use the same thing to buff it out?

    So after ~13hrs of PC use this weekend..........

    the joints in the fingers on my left hand are slightly sore and my fingers are swollen. I'd imagine the immense vibration experienced at speed #6 for such an extended period of time was the culprit. Anyone else experience this problem before? Is there any mods I can make to the PC to cut down on...

    Sonus orange pad

    I have a gripe about this pad. It came with my PC package from TOTL. I attempted to use it today for the first time and this is what happened. First thing I notice is that unlike the Lake County pads, there is no reinforcement on the back of the pad, also, the velcro is slightly smaller than the...

    Hi-Temp Medium Cut Power Leveler

    Does anybody have any experience with the Hi-Temp brand of polishes/swirl removers? I've got some pretty gnarly swirls I need to get out of my white Monte Carlo and I've been using Meg's #2 but it gives me fits. It's a PITA to remove, and even when used with a cutting pad, does next to nothing...

    Easiest product to use for swirls?

    What is the easiest product to use when trying to remove swirls? I like the agressiveness of Meg's #2, but it's a pain in the glutious to remove. What other swirl removers are out there that are much easier to remove, yet as effective, if not more, at removing moderate to heavy swirls?

    Mother's "Reflections" line

    Anybody used it yet? Opinions? I am thinking about getting some Top Coat to put over my freshly FC#2/VM/S100 prepped car. I'm also hearing good things about Mother's FX Syn Wax and the whole FX line, any input on that?

    Swirl free!!!!!

    I recently bought a 2001 Ford Taurus SE that was swirled to hell and then some, and it's black. About 3 weeks ago I seen an ad in the paper from Harbor Freight, they were selling a rotary polisher for $30. I snatched it up and used it with a Meguiars W7000 cutting pad and Meguiars Fine Cut #2 to...
