    Re: Anyone using magic eraser???

    Are there any good write ups out there on how to incorporate these into a detailing arsenal? I have some that I use around the house and they do in fact work great.

    On a car though, even...

    Re: The Beach Towel Tip

    I've experienced the same. My past 3 orders I've been unable to pick up a towel as they've been out of stock. Hoping to see them back soon!

    Re: How to use the Gilmour Foam Gun?

    I believe I have the stem ratio mixer. It's a little slider with holes in it that lets you set the gun for specific dilutions.

    I think my problem was that I just didn't have any water in the...

    How to use the Gilmour Foam Gun?

    I used my Gilmour Foam Gun for the first time yesterday and it didn't quite work as I had planned at first.

    From what I understood I should just fill the bottle up with my car wash soap of choice...
  5. Re: Dummy Detailer Strikes Again! (Amazing Roll Off)

    It's all good man. Just one of those things I know better on next time :dblthumb2:
  6. Re: Dummy Detailer Strikes Again! (Amazing Roll Off)

    Yep, I completely agree. I was cleaning up oil splatter on the counter/floor and just got a little trigger happy. Normally I just use some soapy water and maybe a sponge to boot.
  7. Re: Dummy Detailer Strikes Again! (Amazing Roll Off)

    There's always that option :props:

    After taking a closer peak, it looks like the "spotted' areas just have that cherry coat missing - which is why they look off from the rest of the table. I'm 99%...
  8. Re: Dummy Detailer Strikes Again! (Amazing Roll Off)

    I've actually done this before on a dresser where I left a water bottle. The stain came completely out and I plan on giving it a shot when I don't have to worry about looking funny ironing a shirt on...
  9. Re: Dummy Detailer Strikes Again! (Amazing Roll Off)

    The spotting actually isn't horribly bad, I'll see if I can get a few pictures up so you guys can see what I'm working with.

    I was thinking a wood polish might do the trick, but I know wood...
  10. Dummy Detailer Strikes Again! (Amazing Roll Off)

    Hello all!

    I seem to have the worst luck when it comes to detailing products, specifically those with cleaning agents in them.

    This time around I ran into some trouble with Amazing Roll Off. I...

    Re: Aww Shucks...Review Time!!!

    That's kind of why I asked what your application method was. For one I just wanted to make sure if I followed your same steps I would have success, and two because I know of two other methods that...

    Re: Lesser of Two Evils...

    I'll keep that in mind. I know the weather in California doesn't get quite as rough as the Northeast, so I don't know first hand just how gritty that salt and grime can get.

    Best of luck to you...

    Re: Lesser of Two Evils...

    If there's built up grime on my car and I want to go the rinseless route, I usually do a pressure wash with a hose (or in a stall) to get off as much as I can. Leaving salt and dirt on the vehicle...

    Neither!

    If you have access to a garage, you can use a rinseless wash product indoors. Many people like:

    Re: Removing and Re-Applying LSP

    Ended up picking up both the P21S Cleansing Lotion as well as the Griot's Paint Prep! I'll use the lotion when I want to use a very light polish and the Paint Prep when I'm just looking to strip the...

    Very nice! I was just looking through the Griot's line and saw that the Pre-Wax Cleanser I have is not the same as the Paint Prep. I picked mine up on BOGO and it looks like it's intended purpose is...

    Removing and Re-Applying LSP

    Hello all!

    What is the best way to strip down an LSP if you are not planning on polishing or even claying the paint? It seems like this is asked fairly often, but I've been having a hard time...

    Re: Bathroom detailing

    OPC is magic in bathrooms. Floors, countertops, toilets...out performs and dedicated cleaner you would pick up at the store and is much more versatile and safe. Dilute as needed and have at it :)

    Ultima is a great product, but I still haven't found the sweet spot for application. The applicator that comes with the product works well for larger areas, but it's really hard to get it to apply to...
