Not my work (but was done on my car). Full detail including 1-step correction and a ceramic coating.

Thanks so much for the detailed info, especially as it seems we're in similar situations (I used to try and do this myself, but just can't anymore). I just checked the cpro website and found someone...

Great, thanks so much everyone. Definitely seems I will not be opting for more than a 3 year coat at best, possibly even shorter.

Finally, do coatings, if not properly maintained, end up...

Great, thank you. Can I get your thoughts on the following coatings? How well do they tend to hold up over 3-5 years?

1) Undrdog Pro

2) System X

3) G Techniq

Thank you.

A couple of the professional detailers near me offer 1, 3, 5 or 10 year coatings. Do coatings these days (with proper care) really last up to 10 years, or is that likely a waste of money (to pay...

I've had one of those circular elementary school magnets on my car for, apparently, way too long (6-10 years). I'm sure I've taken it off over the years here and there when washing the car, but...

Thanks so much!

Thank you very much. Perhaps I'll try polishing by hand.

I'm continually having issues with windshield wipers (streaking, etc...) within weeks of changing them, so I'm wondering if perhaps my windshield is heavily contaminated (11 year old car). As an...

Great, thanks all. I'll give one/multiple of these suggestions a try (and will be very careful to cover the dash/vinyl).

Hi. I've had an iOttie Easy One Touch XL Windshield Dashboard Car Mount for several years now, and about a week ago I guess it had had enough of the sun (or something), as the glue/sticky part that...

In my dreams! Nice car!

Am thinking of replacing my Q5 which I love, but is starting to have more and more issues. I'd love something similar, and used, either a 2016 or a 2017 (maybe a 2015).


Was thinking of a...

A few times this winter the weather has been just right to leave a really thick coat of ice all over our cars. Aside from a physical windshield snow cover (which I may just have to get one of these...

Credit card worked perfectly!

Thanks, I'll give that a try!

Any thoughts? It's stuck on there really well and I cannot remove it (yes, I flipped the lever to 'loosen' it...).

I'm thinking the sticky plastic suction cup has 'melded' itself to my windshield...

That's what I've ended up using. I actually like that it works on both the PC and phone.

Yeah :) My wife and I use it for quick messages when we're on our computers. It's a great way to go back and forth without having to wait for emails to send/receive, and w/o having to type...

Hadn't thought of that. I'll take a look.

Thanks, but those don't have standalone apps on the computer. I did look at google hangouts chrome app, but it works kind of weird. i really like how Pidgin (or the old AOL IM sofware) is a small,...

Is there a simple replacement service for AOL IM service?

I don't need anything fancy/secure, just a simple way to IM with the wife on occasion...

We use Pidgin software, and I thought AOL...

A regular 2 bucket wash and KAIO seemed to do the trick!

Thanks everybody.

I don't have much in my arsenal (and no equipment to do any 'real' work). An AIO by hand is the most aggressive I can do. Other than that, Power Clean is the next most aggressive.

Also, if it is a stain, would something like Optimum Power Clean possibly work? Or should I stick with an AIO b/c it probably needs the polishing effect?

I don't want to try OPC without being...
