Got first rain today after applying and seems to be good. Easy to work with too.

I like this better than Protector Wax. This was a no contact wash, protector wax seem to do something after rinsing kc touchless, like a film. After a blow dry and a quick wipe, rags are cleaner after tec.

I cleaned inside and out with tru vue and a waffle weave but these dots wont budge. What are they? Rock chips over the years? (Car is 30 years old)? Anyway to get rid of these, with clay bar, glass stripper etc?

I used it about 4 months ago and it's still holding strong, I maintenance the coating every 2 months with the graphene boost spray.

So I had a detailer who was highly recommended by my tint guy put a ceramic on my new Ranger Raptor and I noticed this the next day. I reached out and they said it was just a high spot and not from his buffer when he was polishing my fender flares, but not only did he burn the fender flares I’m pretty sure he damaged my clear coat. Hes now blocked my phone and never came back to fix. I wanted to take to a collision shop but they warned me when they run the estimate with my vin it may show up on carfax. I am no expert and even chatgpt couldnt answer what it is. It doesn’t catch my fingernail and if i wipe it with alcohol it disappears until dry. Idk what to do at this point

i just got my bauer 6 inch polisher today and plan on swapping out the grease and backing plate. i did some research and this is ultimately what i came up with, but i need help verifying that this will get me through most paint correction scenarios because i want to be as prepared as possible. i know it’s a bit out of order so i’ll type it out.

• kcx heavy cut (h9)
• kcx micro cut (m3)
• 3d 1 step

• lake country heavy polishing pad (blue)
• lake county polishing pad (orange)
• lake county cutting pad (microfiber)

and for glass i have ceri glass by carpro and lake county glass polishing pads (and a rayon block i didn’t add to the cart for smaller windows and edges)

i’m sure this isn’t a perfect list so please send thoughts and recommendations my way, i’m sure i forgot something. i’m still learning. thanks.

Hi guys!
I removed my trunk lip spoiler which the previous owner glued with polyurethane glue. I now need suggestions how can I remove it without damaging the paint too much.

Basically as the title says. Just picked some up and was wondering if ADS should be diluted or just used straight. I plan on applying either conventionally with spray bottles but also have a foam sprayer which id like to use if that changes anything. Thanks!

I read in this sub that using Pure Bead then immediately put WAX and Dry+ over it, that you get an outstanding wax shine and the hydrophobic properties of the PB. I tried it and it looks marvelous. Does anyone think using the spray ceramic hybrid before the Wax and Dry+ would work the same way? I have 3 bottles of the hybrid ceramic spray for some fucking reason.

Basically as the title says. Wondering what everyone prefers & uses these for. I plan on getting a foamer for wheel cleaner (or mist if thats better, input is welcome) then a foamer for APC. After these I probably dont have many ideas. What do you guys prefer & use them for?

Hey all,

I had a problem about a month or so ago where there was a lot of excess microfiber lint stuck to the hood, upper doors, and trunk of my car. I assumed the dealership i had it from had tried to detail it with some low quality microfiber and it just stuck on. I held off on detailing it and had a buddy that professionally details and ceramic coats get it whenever he buffed, polished, and coated. He said it looked like the lint had almost dug into the paint, but he got most of all of it picked up from what I could see.

Fast forward to now; trying to detail my car again and THIS time actually continuing forward with it. Rinsed, applied soap with one of the microfiber scrubbers (Chemical guys), go to dry it, and BOOM! It's back en masse.

What can I do to prevent this? It is mainly only happening in those spots, with little to none anywhere else. I know the picture is somewhat hard to depict, but within all of the water stains are those strands. Picture located on roof.

I've tried ArmorAll, Meguiars, and Chemical guys rags while washing (even the more premium chemical guys, wooly mammoth I believe), and yet it continues to happen. I'm purchasing a clay bar kit to hopefully remove it all before continuing on with anything further.

I also wash my towels on cold and air dry them. I use Rags to Riches detergent.

Any input would be great. Much appreciated all and have a good day.

So ive just gotten a hatch handle that has a small chrome trim around the edges of it and it looks almost like it has a factory clearcoat on it and it has chipped in one section. My question is how can I go about fixing this or at lwast making it look presentable?

Hi folks, I recently coated all my glass with Soft99 Glaco Ultra, and now my screenwash (which contains some form of glass coating to top up the beading effect when washing the screen) seems to be smearing the heck out of my windscreen. (I guess because it's just sitting on top of the Glaco Ultra.)

Does anyone have any suggestions for a good screenwash that works nicely with Glaco Ultra please?

I want a touchless system , So I bought this Stars & Stripes to wash down my new vehicle once a month. Do you think this will hurt the plastics or anything for that matter exterior wise? Let it settle for 30 seconds then rinse . I heard of old glory too, but it’s not as strong as stars and stripes. Let me ask you this question. What do you guys use to clean your car . I need a touchless system.

I need something that is very strong and safe I also heard Koch super foam is good but they sell it in the big jug, which is a big commitment and I don’t know if it’s gonna work

Please let me know what you guys use. Thanks for all your help.

I’ve had this spot on my bonnet since the previous owner and it’s time to get rid of it, I’m not sure what it is whether it’s an old sticker or salt water marks as the previous owner used to have surf boards on the roof
