Thanks. I just used the Sonax for the first time and maybe it is too aggressive to finish with. I used it on my Galactic Grey LX470 and had no issues but that paint is harder.
Compounded with an orange pad and used a white pad with the 04-06. I've corrected dozens of cars over the past 6-7 years and haven't ever had this issue which is why I am stumped. I polished out...
Been a while since I've been active on this forum but I'm back with a question that has me stumped. I'm working on my Emerald Green 1999 Miata and am polishing it in preparation for...
Thanks! I am enjoying it so far and have heard they have great track potential with some minor suspension upgrades. Maybe in the future it will see some track time
Picked up a 2009 Suzuki SV650S a month or so ago and today was the day that it got a detail! I was lucky enough to find the bike locally. It's a 2009 with 4200 miles on it and has never...
When I had my B8.5 Audi S4 with the Nappa Leather seats, I used Optimum leather protectant and was happy with the finish it left. Matte and not slick at all.

Thank you! I've been enjoying the LX so far. I usually keep my cars for a year or two then move to something different but I plan on keeping this for a long haul and getting something sporty to keep...
Thanks for the kind words. I was hoping that would help someone. Goof off took the paint right off. They sell a spray bottle and then they sell the good stuff in a metal can. Use the stuff in the...
While I was home detailing my new Lexus LX470, my mom's new car showed up. Her Audi A3 TDI was bought back by Audi so we replaced it with another diesel. This time it was a Black Sapphire...
Got to see how the ice reacts on the coated surface. Kind of cool!

I'll have to do an update as well. My girlfriend's subaru has been wearing it in Buffalo, NY for a year now and still holding up great. Uber is a great coating!
