    Re: 2017 Honda Get's Rolled Back

    Looks good. It really does look like a different color after the work.
  2. Re: 2019 BMW X5 - Mineral White - Gtechniq CSL & EXO V4

    I am sorry for the Urinary Olympic Event but you are still misreading and mischaracterizing my post which isn't helping you, me, or anyone else reading. Yes, I became annoyed when "these products"...
  3. Re: 2019 BMW X5 - Mineral White - Gtechniq CSL & EXO V4

    Quite possible. If that's the case I'll adjust in the future but I did have a bit of GSF in there as well.

    Thanks! I'm proud to have your positive feedback!

    Who said or even implied anything about UK not being a legit coating? I don't think you read my post ;)

    Re: Another German Beauty gets the business

    Very nice. The X3 M40i is surprisingly fast for what it is. My wife and I drove one before getting her X5 and we were both astonished when we put our foot in it.
  7. 2019 BMW X5 - Mineral White - Gtechniq CSL & EXO V4

    I haven't had anything to post here in a while but finally got a long-awaited detail done on my wife's car. We took delivery of our 2019 X5 at the Performance Center in Spartanburg (incredible...
  8. Re: Do stones "bounce off" PPF, and not leave a mark?

    We got my wife a 2019 X5 in mineral white. In a year of ownership we got more stone chips than we had in the ENTIRE 7 previous years with our Acura MDX. I guess it's a combination of the paint and...

    Re: Master blaster - who uses?

    I use a Master Blaster. For a full contactless dry, it works great on my car with ceramic coating but not so great on a car with a traditional LSP that's anything other than fresh. For example, my...

    Re: Iron cleaning products vs wheel cleaners?

    You've had multiple people answer your question. Put it together...

    If the wheels are really dirty, Brake Buster
    If the wheels are moderately or lightly dirty and/or coated, Iron X
    Agitation...

    Re: Iron cleaning products vs wheel cleaners?

    I used Brake Buster neat and would give the rotors a quick mist after cleaning the wheels. No rust would form, just a dull residue. Hyde's Serum is even better, the rotor maintains a shiny metal...

    Re: Iron cleaning products vs wheel cleaners?

    Yeah I do, too. The thing is if I don't treat them after cleaning the wheels they get a fine film of rust (not yet enough to make dust on the wheels) BUT after hitting the car with the foam cannon...

    Re: Iron cleaning products vs wheel cleaners?

    It's not a gimmick because I don't want that rust ending up on my wheel(s) by having the pad abrade it off into dust. It can turn into a horrible mess esp. if the car sees light moisture and then...

    Re: Iron cleaning products vs wheel cleaners?

    You're not reading the totality of my posts. The vast majority of the time I do agitate...with a bucket of wash water and my assortment of brushes and mitt.

    Pre-treat with Iron X and blast with...

    Re: Iron cleaning products vs wheel cleaners?

    I'm not sure why you're concerned with lubricity. You shouldn't need to directly agitate the wheel cleaner on your wheel, or, if you do, it would be on a second application. You really want to...

    Re: Iron cleaning products vs wheel cleaners?

    I've been using iron remover on my wheels more lately. My cars are cleaned often enough I don't really get tar buildup or other things wheel cleaners might also help with. It's just straight brake...

    Re: Anyone still using carnauba products?

    To this day I've never gotten more compliments on gloss than when I used P21S Concours Look Wax.
  18. Re: how to do you guys reapply sealants if you are using a QD on top every car wash?

    Interesting discussion but I don't understand why the OP wouldn't just use CarPro Elixir? It's in the "family" therefore compatible and a little goes a long way if you spray into a microfiber to...

    Re: Sealant comparison

    Was Menzerna Power Lock+ part of the testing? Even though it's not as new as some entries it's still an excellent performer I've found.
  21. Re: Polish and Pad Recommendations for a New Car

    If 4 washes added scratches that require stepping up a level in terms of pad or polish (I'd still do the pad) then you've got other problems. You need to have a serious look at your wash routine and...
  22. Re: Polish and Pad Recommendations for a New Car

    If that didn't do the trick the car is more scratched than you let on or I thought it would be for being new. You could try a more aggressive foam pad. If you've got scratches that aren't coming...

    Re: What headphones do you use while detailing

    I use these, too (in black). While I don't agree on the sound quality being excellent, they're inexpensive and, importantly, the rubber insert really helps reduce outside noise from machines, etc....
  24. Re: Polish and Pad Recommendations for a New Car

    Use CarPro Essence and a soft foam polishing pad. The car is new so it *should* only have the most minor of imperfections, you don't want to go aggressive with the pad. Essence has very minor...

    Great work and great car. The E46 M3 is one of the most handsome looking cars ever made IMHO.
