Mike,
So I have been working with a new brand of products and I am deciding what to add to my arsenal. On their website they sell solvent and water based levelers and compounds. I was just wondering if you could help explain to me what the difference is between these products and what can I expect from each one, eg what is the difference between a water-based heavy cut leveler and a solvent-based heavy cut compound? For that matter what is the difference between a leveler and a compound? This question also applies to tire dressings? I loathe silicone dressings and stay away from them at all costs so I typically use water-based dressings. With that being said what can I expect from a petroleum based tire dressing? Will it sling and brown tires like a silicone or is it more akin to water-based? Mike, as always thanks in advance...
