And, that is in line with the many reviews I read - that applied to the older formula. Like I said, the first question McKee's asked was if the bottle I got had the new sticker. At that point, he...
I'm pretty confident I did. I used more than half a bottle of their cleaner/rejeuvenator making three/four rounds of product and scrubbing with a small Mequiar's tire brush, following the...
Could not see a way to edit this, but I wanted to provide some follow up. I had purchased this on a different site and written a review of my experience there. Since it was less than a five star...
Optimum Opti-Bond Tire Gel is what is working for me. Can't speak to the durability, but it gives me the look I want, which is reasonably flat dark black, like good tire rubber should be. No shiny,...
There is no "best" route for a set of painted wheels. Depends on time, budget, and what you know. Once cleaned, they can be protected with a sealant, wax, or coating. Pros and cons to all options....
Not familiar with that unit. Hard to see how it mounts, or is triggered. It looks like one that snaps into/requires a pressure washer, compared to one that hooks into a garden hose. "pretty decent...
I have found using Mr. Clean Magic Eraser useful in this tight spot, with a detailer, or whatever level of action you need - depends on the needs as to what I go for next. This is a very fine foam...
After trying a couple of other products, I gave this one a try recently. I prefer more of a deep matte black for tires. Reviews I read seem to suggest this might be the winner for me. Anything but....
Almost none of the products out there will last like you wish they would - but if you wash wisely, you should be able to keep them protected, so as to prevent the corrective work again. That said,...
I prefer 5000K and fewer lumens, since too bright is a problem, but a color shift makes it harder to see the color correctly. I recently tweaked my mobile setup and it's worked out really well. I...
Another vote for the Meguiar's professional detail products. These are sold by the gallon, but work great. If you could only have two, for the outside of the car, I would go with their X-press Spray...
Sorry for the shorthand. IPA stands for IsoPropyl Alcohol. It is typically sold in either 50%, 70%, or 91% concentrations. These are far too strong to use straight. Here is a thread on how to mix...
We are a family of three black vehicles, though each is different. That said, CG Blacklight is a useful glaze that minimizes the micro stuff. Useful if you are going to follow up with a good wax for...
Depending on what is causing the "streaks," it might be wiser to wipe with a 10% IPA and fresh MF towel, since most detailers may introduce chemicals that hinder compound or polishing work.
I've been investing in waterless wash options for awhile. I started using a good spray bottle, but I moved to a small (1.0 liter-sized) pump sprayer, as it makes it easier to apply a generous amount...
