I was referring to meg. d151, but any aio in general. I guess my logic was to use an all in one to skip compound, polish sealant wax and go aio then sealant for added durability. just wondering if...
I like to put sealant on before waxing but when I use an all in one product is it ok to put on sealant after using aio? Or do I have to use like an ipa before sealant?

Appreciate taking the time to answer my posts MIke! That's interesting that you do the cars for free for your classes. I assume it would make it more pleasurable!
Oh and i'm not sure if those 2 guys are gonna get kicked off or what, but I am pretty sure Mike meant no harm by it. I reread what he wrote and it's not offensive at all. He probably mentioned his...
Very nice indeed! Seems very time consuming. How long did the whole car actually take? How long would it take for just 1 man? Do you get paid by the hour or by the project? IS this for private...
Thanks for the clarifications. I never even heard of ipa's . See it's good to be on these forums. I 've heard of prewax cleansers but only for car whose paint does not need any correction. I guess I...
So are you saying after compounding and polishing that it may be necessary to apply a light isp for proper bonding of sealant/wax? Wouldn't just wiping off polish/prewax cleanser be good enough...
Why would you even use ipa, ms etc. Just so wax/sealant adheres better? After reading this article . So usually when using ipa's you are using it before the compound polish process or after? And...
:iagree:Good common sense instruction. I iknow some people like to wash or have a short wash or quick pressure wash after claying, but like Mike said after you clay it might not be necessary to wipe...
Hi I am going to be detailing but basically just part time in my own garage. Maybe only a few cars a week or a couple on the weekend. Below i'll list what i was quoted which i think is not bad but i...
It's your decision. If he offers to fix it for a discount rate maybe you should take him up on the offer. Plus he has to have insurance if there is undue damage to your vehicle. But if your life...

If this was the most neglected finish you ever worked on (nick) why didn't you guys use the cyan cutting pad? I am under the impression the tangerine pad is a polishing pad. So i don't have tons of...
Wow thanks MIke P. for all the resources. Very helpful and insightful and informative!
I would personally rather be safe than sorry. So if the paint looks immaculate as if it can't get any better...
Keep the psi down if you do the car. I use a 1900 psi and don't stand real close (dont' listen if people say you will damage the paint) as long as s not a streamline straight shot and not real...
Certain type of products are better for priming the pad. They are called lubricants and some products are now made specifically for pad priming. I use meguiars last touch spray . Not only is it...
My strategy instead of having 1 business card of like 5ooo cards. Just get 250-500 of 3-5 different designs and see which one gets the best response. DOn't play off what your style is, go b what your...
