  1. Re: Meguiar’s Wheel Brightener Consumer Equivalent for paint spot removal

    Thank You both. I had some luck using Meg’s Scratch-X by hand. But in those spots I now need to polish out the swirls. I tried to call Meguiar’s today but it said the call center is closed due to CA...
  2. Meguiar’s Wheel Brightener Consumer Equivalent for paint spot removal

    I saw several videos where they used Meguiar’s Wheel Brightener diluted 50/50 with water to remove stubborn water and bird dropping spots. I’m looking for the consumer equivalent since I can’t find...

    Re: First Experience With DuraGloss ... WOW!

    OK, I'll give that a try. Normally I wouldn't use a machine to apply but for 2 reasons. 1) I have a lot of pain issues from 3 back surgeries and a failed neck surgery and 2) for me my wife's Murano...

    Re: First Experience With DuraGloss ... WOW!

    If you were to go this route, which of the Sealants would you use? I will be buying and mixing with the DG 601 and when I get the time probably topping off with Collonite Wax. I'll be applying the...

    Re: Keep on marring my paint after polishing

    Ch17: I'm not a total noob, but I hadn't corrected the swirls in the soft black paint on my 96 SVT Cobra Mustang in over a year. I too used UP, because I didn't want to go with a more aggressive...

    Re: Best/favorite all in one?

    When not using Colonite I top with Croftgate Quick & Slick. It leaves the surface very shiny and extremely slick. It's a spray and wipe that you apply sparingly and wipe immediately with a MF cloth...

    Re: UPGP Final process

    Gotcha, wrong terminology.

    What's the best thing I can do to get the most shine from the UPGP. Hand buff with my best MF towel, or use my DA with some product, a QD, Spray Wax, etc? Thanks...

    When I have the time I'm going to do a full correction and either coat it myself or have a pro coat it. I've had 3 serious back operations with hardware and a failed neck operation. So a full...
