    Re: Will my tires ever be clean

    Try a tar remover like Stoner's Tarminator. Either spray directly on the tire or onto a throwaway microfiber. Go to town spraying the tire liberally with cleaner if you have to. My Ford's Hankook...

    Re: I’ve tried Beadmaker...

    That guy is starting to piss me off. It's 2019 and he's only just started to figure that he should have been trying Meg's Mirror Glaze and Detailer line products a long time ago. Probably never gave...

    Re: I’ve tried Beadmaker...

    Good thing I only bought a 16 oz. of this if this really is an average product to try out instead of dumping money into a gallon like I almost did. I mean, I'd never even heard of P&S until the Rag...

    Re: Megs D110 Hyper Wash

    It was only $27 a gallon a few months ago.....

    Don't know what happened with Autogeek's prices on the Detailer line products. They all seemed to have shot up over 25%.
  5. Re: Throwing away microfiber towels after coating?

    I've never used a coating before, but I'll chime in. I stopped throwing towels away, even my cheapy Autozone towels I use for engines/wheel wells/tires. One can never have too many microfiber towels....

    Re: Brine alert! This is not a drill!

    Picture a world where we don't use brine to prevent ice buildup on the roadways. Now throw in the average driver and their accompanying skillset out there. That is why streets are coated with brine...

    Never heard of this guy, clearly a hack. I'm sure that purple power soap is slightly better at cleaning superficial road tar, but even using that soap every week, one eventually would need to clay....

    Re: How am I scratching my car?

    Hate to say it OP, but pretty much your entire wash process is horrible for your paint. Water blades and brushes (no matter how soft or expensive) are damaging to your paint. You also didn't mention...

    Re: Megs d103 or d101 ?

    Depends, for interior trim you spray on the towel not the panel and don't need to buff with a clean towel unless you really want to. If you clean upholstery you should wipe the excess with a clean...

    Re: Megs d103 or d101 ?

    1. I've yet to experience any staining of rubber, vinyl or plastic in the 4 years I've been using D101. YMMV. You certainly shouldn't spray and let the product sit. I have used D101 undiluted on...

    Re: Megs d103 or d101 ?

    You can use it on exterior components. Diluted properly, it's safe on rubber and exterior trim. Just avoid glass and be careful around aluminum, paint, wheels (ok to use on clear-coated wheels if...

    Re: Did my dryer kill my microfibers

    Yup, people have drying lines. Pretty common feature in a home with a backyard (I have it, and I use it). I accidentally typed line dry instead of hang dry, though, which is what I really do. I...

    Re: Did my dryer kill my microfibers

    I've charred some microfibers in the dryer. In essence, the strands in a certain spot literally fused into a lump and the overall characteristics of the microfiber changed. The spots that didn't fuse...

    Re: Megs d103 or d101 ?

    D103 was all purpose cleaner plus, it was discontinued. The replacement will be out next year, I believe. D107

    And d101 does not protect, you will need dressing. It is a good all purpose cleaner...

    What's excluded here? Maybe the turkey has killed my reading comprehension, but nothing on that list seems to be part of the excluded items list.

    Re: Cyber Buster Deals Available!

    Just a heads up, at checkout, the 25% off discount is not being applied correctly. I have an order total of 197.89, and it is discounting 46.73. The correct discount amount should be 49.47. So...

    Re: Shady detail

    Gotta love people who work at dealerships. Someone should tell the guy/gal that, for the most part, cars do not arrive from the factory with swirl marks on their paint.

    It's the lot boys who go...

    Re: Very hard lesson learned today

    Interesting, that would be encouraging, but it doesn't seem like from what I'm seeing. I also sealed the paint so I hope that doesn't prevent any possible outgassing from this. It looks like it took...

    I don't have a driveway. The street I live one is a one-way and is narrow. The tent would block traffic. This is what I have to deal with. :)

    Very hard lesson learned today

    So, I found some time today to detail my car. I planned on doing a wash, decon, and wax. I used CarPro Trix in the direct sunlight, as I have done plenty of times before today with no issue, but...
