  4. Re: When to stop buffing - Or - How far should you go to remove swirls and scratches?

    Used to have a duster. Was good for quickie, almost touchless sweeps to feather off recently detailed paint. But results were never satisfying as some "dust" inevitably sticks to the paint tempting...

    Re: Optimum Spray Wax after weekly wash-overkill?

    OS every few months for base sealant + weekly washes with ONR + alternate OCW and OID. Applying OCW to much, or too often, causes streaking. OID adds polymers and enhances gloss without this problem....

    Re: Most regretted detailing product purchase

    The Cobra Waffle Weave Glass Towel. Supposedly great for glass because "Microfiber is designed to never shed lint". In fact they do leave a thin carpet of white lint, always.
