That makes a lot of sense. The paint on the truck while smooth because I recently clayed it, was no longer slick after the automated car wash. It stripped my synthetic wax. Now I understand why when...
Howdy everyone. I am a DIY hobbiest. I enjoy cleaning vehicles for fun, therapy, a hobby. I am not doing this for a living or money. Here are my thoughts and opinions on my foam cannon experience. I...
Ok, problem solved. I went out this morning before it got hot. Truck was in the shade. I washed the truck like normal with Meguiars Shampoo Plus, foam gun on a hose, mitt, rinse, drying microfiber,...
Hello everyone. Normally I clean our pickup myself using the normal tools. Foam gun, rinse bucket with grit guard, microfiber drying towel. You know the deal. Well, it has been so hot with 110+ heat...
The truck is in good shape. It is our daily driver. I am just curious more than anything. The truck was recently clayed with a mitt and waxed a few weeks a go. I was just wondering how and if people...
Hello everyone. I recently got an old pressure washer running for my parents. I was curious as to how well a pressure washer could clean our farm truck. Normally I use a foam gun with a clean bucket...
Hello everyone. I went out today to wash the mud off of our farm truck. I have the AutoGeek soap foam sprayer thingy that connects to a water hose. The unit works but the slide adjuster forbthe soap...
Thank you very much. The idea is to keep the truck and cover clean and protected. I am more concerned with protection and function compared to pretty and shiny. The cover is for a daily driver and...
Thank you very much for the reply. I am certainly not against buying a kit like this, but can cleaning and protecting be done without buying another $35 kit? What other items can you use that I may...
Hello everyone. My wife and I want a tonneau cover for our truck. The idea is not for security but rather to keep items out of the weather. We use the bed for hauling feed and mucking on the farm. We...
I am back. I followed the advice in Mike’s video on this forum. I was able to take compound and a medium pad, then polish on a light pad, then wax on a foam pad and restore the headlights. They were...
Hello everyone. I have a 2011 Ford Ranger with headlights that need a touch up. They are fine except for their top edge near the hood. How do I know if they are factory coated or simply untreated...
I will add my imput. You can learn to do this like I have. I am legally blind and the folks on here helped me a great deal and walked me through the process. Go for it and enjoy.
Hello everyone. I have little experience with a DA polisher. I have used mine twice at this point on two different vehicles that were not mine. My wife and I have a 2011 Ford Ranger daily driver and...

Hello everyone. I have not been on the forum for a while. I have some questions. Which is more impirtant, water preasure or volume? I have and use a large diametor commercial water hose. I think it...
Maybe it does not have a hairline crack. The left side headlight has the same line in the same spot. Anyway, water is getting somehow? Now, how do I post pictures?
Hello everyone. My wife and I have a 2012 Nissan Versa Hatchback. The right front headlight assembly has developed moisture inside it. We found a hairline crack in the size. Can this be repaired as a...

Hello everyone. Our car was recently resprayed under a warranty. Well the roof and hood were anyway. We were told to not wax the car for 30 days. This makes me curious. Why do you not wax a fresh...
No, it has not been over 30 days yet. I would like to learn more about options to protect the clearcoat so maybe this will not happen again. My solution was not good enough or the clear would not...
Hello everyone. Our Nissan hatchback has been repainted. The car was damaged 6 years a go. The hood and roof were repainted. The clearcoat was failing from the repair. Well, they have repaired the...
