What Is The Best Tip You Have Gotten Since Being On AGO?
I was curious to find out what tips from AGO you all have found most helpful since joining the site.
I've always been into keeping my car clean. I also always thought I knew what I was doing. That is until I found AGO. I threw away most everything I had before and have spent a lot of money on my newly rediscovered hobby.
I was fortunate that when I bought my truck back in October, it was swirl free and thanks to Mike and everyone else on AGO, it's still swirl free.
There are quite a few things I've learned since joining AGO
- Selecting, using and caring for MF towels
- Using the two wash mitt system, one for the bottom of the truck and one for the top.
- How to keep the paint maintained using the correct polishes and waxes.
- Cleaning windows
- Proper methods for defect removal
There are quite a few more, but you get the idea that I basically had to completely reset the way I maintained my cars finish.

The single best advice I learned from lurking and reading what various people said on one of radarryan's threads, using Menzerna Sf4500 with a crimson hydro tech 5.5" LC pad. The results are phenomenal!

Do a "test spot" and if you are happy with the results then continue on with the rest of the vehicle.
I am not sure if I heard from Mike here or from Mike at Meguiars first though.
Regardless, it definatley is worth the time to do rather then waste a day polsihing an entire vehicle and being unhappy with the results and having to do it all over again!
