    Re: Aquapel

    Yes. Alcohol evaporates. Just make sure you IPA the whole windshield and get all the grime off.

    Re: Aquapel

    Aquapel works very well for me. Better and longer lasting than OCW, which I tried first. Any window cleaner will do, as long as it doesn't leave behind a film of anything. The windshield must be as...

    Re: Looking for a new Quick Detailer.

    I like #521, Duragloss Marine / RV Detail Spray.
    Removes dust, minor soil, oil film and water lines without removing the protective polish.
    It's like QD on steroids.

    Re: Are my windows messed up??

    If it is sap, rubbing alcohol will remove it. Let the alcohol soak on the sap for a minute, using a cloth, then wipe clean. Exterior only.

    Walmart has, (or had last year), a net you put over your front to catch the bugs, with an s-hook (plastic) to secure it by your front wheel wells. Just remember to put something under the s-hooks to...

    Re: Wax removal from plastic ........?

    Use some APC and a toothbrush. The old wax will come off.
    After removing the old wax, that's the time to put a protectant on it.

    Re: ez detail brush and butterstick wheel tool

    I've used that AZ brush, and it lasted about 9-10 washes before the wire broke.
    I guess breaking a $6 brush is better than breaking a $30 brush.
    5 brushes at $6 = $30 = 45 washes.
    5 brushes at $25...

    Nice job, Sal!
    I've watched your posts on the RV's too. You take on all the labor-intensive jobs that would kill me.

    Re: Difference between QD and ONR

    QD for light dusting. Kind of like Johnsons Pledge for your car.
    ONR for washing.
    But you can dilute ONR to make a QD.

    I use both, depending on whether I have electric available. If there is electric available, I reach for the PC every time. Just remember you're working on plastic, so keep moving to keep heat down.

    Re: Dealing with New Car Orange Peel

    Orange peel is a texture, not a color. It resembles the texture of an orange peel. It's usually in the clear coat and will not affect the color at all.

    Re: Whats a Chicago Rotary??

    I use my Chicago Rotary now to wash and dry my pads in a UPW. I paid $19.00 for it brand new at Harbor Freight last year and it was worth the $19.00 to learn rotary on it.
