    Thanks, Tony, for the advice. I used Wolfgang Deep Gloss Paint Sealant. Damn, I should have dealt with these water spots first, now it's stuck under the sealant. Can I wipe a panel down with ONR, and...
  2. Re: Dark Blue 2018 Audi ... Sprinkler at lunch today ... water spots! ugh... help

    Hi SWETM, I have a similar situation but didn't want to start another thread on exact problem since OP mostly had problems resolved. I have been self-washing the car at local wash, usually spray it...
  3. Re: Question about wash/dry technique with ONR/OS, and can you recommend decent microfiber drying towels?

    I think the first application I would do wash/clay/apply when dry. And then afterwards can do it with the drying to replenish or something.

  6. Re: Destroyed side of car against wall --- help with getting quotes

    Unfortunately I do not personally know any mechanics. I live in the Los Angeles/Orange County area, if anyone offers.

    I did a quick search for used parts, starting at $300 and up. Not sure how I...
  7. Re: Destroyed side of car against wall --- help with getting quotes

    I am paying out of pocket. I'm not sure about cash discount. I will inquire. They gave a discount, which was 25% of the final quote, so it brought it down to 1000 right now.

    This morning, I made too sharp a turn out of the garage and sheared the side of the car against the edge of a brick wall. Images below. It's definitely through the paint.

    Re: Can you help me choose a polish product?

    I live in Orange County. Maybe I'll just cover everything up with wax so at least no more scratches show up. One day when I move out of here I'll have an outlet to work with. Heh.

    It's a dark gray color paint. I would use a DA, but in my building I don't have access to a electric plug. How much pressure do you need to apply by hand, in terms of pounds or kilograms? I haven't...

    Re: Keeping cat off car hood

    Thanks. Haha, I've dealt with this thing for at least two years already. Plus there's a ton of other cars it can sleep on. Any recommendations where I would be able to find these tablecloths?
