In my experience with two cars side by side in the garage (garage queens), the 845 attracts more dust than the Powerlock. The other cars outside, I don't notice any difference as the rain washes...
Put a black line on the backing plate so you can verify the pad is rotating during buffing. If not rotating, lighten the pressure or increase speed or both.
I like you did my first coating in July 2014 on my wife's new BMW using 2.0. Was very pleased with performance. Looks just like your water video. Too bad 2.0 was replaced. I have not yet tried...
I used Optimum coating on my wife's new white BMW. Not real slick, but sheds the daily dirt and lasts at least a year (June 2014). Pleased with the Optimum products.
I have also used 845. It lasts a long time. I think the durability will be more dependent on the wheel cleaner used. Harsh = less life. I use the car wash soap without issue. 845 is a favorite...
I have more wax, sealant and coating products than I will use in my lifetime. Always fun to try new products and looking forward to more. Each has advantages. I use my favorites.
I use the "No Wash" signs, notify the service writer and also tell them not to use impact wrenches on the lug nuts. Then I watch them. Both the BMW and Volvo dealers have allowed me into the...
The tank valve is the old style. I suggest trading for a new tank/valve when empty. The tanks do have a certification date. If you are concerned of leakage, place a bucket over the top of the tank...
Well pleased with neoprene car seat covers. Fit is excellent and stays in place. Worth the $ to protect the seat. Don't spend on universal or "fits" seat covers.
Many cars have computer modules and fuse boxes in the engine area. These are probably within plastic boxes. The boxes may or may not have seals on the covers and may have small vent fans (like a...
Way back when I was single, b4 children (now in college), I had a Bugeye Sprite and a side curtain Midget. Had the Bugeye for almost 20 years, never wet except to be washed. Toy cars as I had a...
WOW, good luck. Most generous of you to share. My hobby stash has been slowly added to as "she who must be obeyed" doesn't notice. Except when I do her car, white uck. But, it's clean and beads. ...
I am also retired. About 6 years ago I purchased a Dewalt DA and was frustrated with the wax spreader performance. Then I found Autogeek and realized the 8" pads were inappropriate for the DA. Now...
I use Megs APC+ at 10:1. spray on and let soak after kneeding in with fingers. I spin on the DA inside a small round trash can to remove more water. Pad cannot get away with DA over can opening. ...
i just finished using poli-seal on my 2007 Volvo S80. Daily driver, sits outside 24/7. Used a white CCS pad. So easy. Long working time on a cool car in the shade or garage. And easy to clean...
I have had success removing light wiper scratches by following http://www.autogeekonline.net/forum/how-articles/69976-da-glass-correction-scratch-removal-carpro.html i spent 2+ hours with a rotary...
I usually apply 845 with a white CCS pad on the DA. It leaves an oily appearance, but disappears soon. With the DA, it is easy to apply thin. I start wiping off after covering the total car. I...
