I have used both sides of my MF towels from multiple sources and never had any marring issues. Sure, the shorter nap side is better for removing polish, but it works just fine for other uses, such...
I know I'm in the minority, but I use a sheepskin mitt with ONR. On the lower panels, I use a chenille mitt. I just feel the sheepskin is the softest, and when using ONR I want to reduce the risk...
Collinite 845 works incredibly well on wheels. Believe me, I know. Last winter was brutal and it my wheels looked perfect when I finally got to wash the wheels real well in the spring.
It will stain trim. Be careful with it. I find it very finicky to use, but the results are great. Yes, be VERY thin with it. And two coats will give you best durability.
I'm sorry the OP had a bad experience but I love 845. It is the best on wheels. Really protects through a long salty, chemically winter. I applied to my paint in March and it's still going strong....
Collinite 845 works amazingly well. I wasn't able to hand wash my car at all this past winter, and we had huge snows with lots of salt and chemicals on the road. When the weather finally broke and...
It's important to remember that durability and protection can be two different things. Zaino may hang around for a long time, but in my experience it does not provide as much protection as many...
Gtechniq makes a product called C4 that's a permanent trim restorer. It is supposed to work amazingly well. You have to get it from their site in the UK. I have not used it personally, but I have...
Menzerna Power Finish is a very good one step polish. They recommend if you have a very dark color, you should step down to something like Menz 85RD. I used Power Finish on my black car today and...
Chemical Guys Citrus Wash & Glow is my favorite right now. You have to follow the directions on how much to use because it is strong. I use just one capful in my bucket and that is plenty - lots of...
Thanks for the tip, ziggo. I'll try the UC first since I've already bought it and see how it goes. But if that doesn't work, sounds like the Meguiar's kit would be worth a try.
Thanks kronos. I just tried to get a couple pics. They don't show it all that well. It's not as bad as I remembered, but there is some cloudiness, especially at the tops of the headlights. I'm...
My mother has a 2000 Accord with some really cloudy headlights. I just ordered some Meg's Ultimate Compound and was wondering if it can be used on plastic headlights to restore them. ...
I am trying out FK1000P this winter. I've already got one coat on and plan to add another when I can. Looks like a cold rainy weekend, so maybe next weekend....
My favorites are FK425 and ClearKote QuikShine. 425 has nice anti-static properties which do actually help keep your car from being a dust magnet. It's also very slick and adds some gloss. ...
Lowe's Proline Grout Sponge. It's so soft and rinses so clean. I love how the color makes it easy to see if there's anything on it contaminating it. Plus, it holds lots of water/suds/soap. I...
Prima Hydro is supposed to work exactly that way. You spray it on your car after washing but before drying. Then dry the car. I've never used it but have read a lot of good feedback on it. You...
Wheels first with whatever car wash soap I have available and a Mother's wheel/fender well brush.
Presoak with foam gun and DP Xtreme wash soap.
Then, two bucket wash method with Lowe's Proline...
I usually try clay first, then vinegar. If those don't get them, try Klasse AIO. If they aren't etched in, AIO will remove them. If they are etched and it's just a few and your car isn't covered...
