Agree with Shane here. I bought a new Silverado, and it was a little rougher than normal from the factory so I ended up using Correcting Polish and a Orange pad, then moved to Finishing Polish. I feel that the finishing polish always seems to pull some sparkle out of cars. I tend to do a pretty quick finish polish to most cars I seal, my reasoning is that it gives it a good surface to grab to. I think if your going to polish no need to strip wash the second time. I usually just wipe the residue off, and then move onto the sealant.

Adam's Rubber Mat & Liner Cleaner
Mbrazelton replied to Editguy's topic in Product Polls, Feedback, and Company Input
If you message detail giant on facebook he responds within min. I've messaged him on both, and the fact that I order items from him in the east coast, to ship to the midwest shows alot! -

Works awesome of Weathertech floor mats Matt -
Stuff works good in the cup holders! If you don't like the feeling of certain textures wear a glove, it seems to stick to your hands.

New Ceramic Boost 2.0 vs H2o Gloss and Guard
Mbrazelton replied to WhoIsHomer's question in General Detailing Discussion and Questions
I don't use either product, but I am actually interested in seeing how the the new CB2.0 works. I usually seal my truck, and so most of the time I skip the H2O GG just because it's a extra step and I don't feel I would gain anything from it. But I ordered a new truck, that I am wondering how the CB2.0 will work on the wheel, getting paint sealant in these will be tough, so being able to spray CB2.0 on the wheels and wipe off it might be easier to keep them clean for some time. I don't expect it to last 4-6 months on wheels but even a month or two would be good. -
Choosing the right products
Mbrazelton replied to shane@detailedreflections's topic in The Adam's Detailing Library
I'd also like to thank Shane, me and him have had a conversation about buffing pads. He has also done a lot to answer questions, I think the forum/facebook group is a good tool, some of us detail a lot, and some less. So groups have use or tried things more so its good to share knowledge to others. -
Foaming Cleaner on Road Salt Stains??
Mbrazelton replied to WMUCarGuy's question in Interior Cleaning & Care
I had some residue left over from where my Floor mats don't cover where my gas pedal is on my Silverado. I used the foaming cleaner and a competitors drill brush on mine, took two times and it came out and looked brand new. -
With the Special Edition Sprays, the trade forum got out of hand. I had asked people about things, and all they want is special detail spray. They have 2 bottles of shampoo and brilliant glaze, but they want 4 special edition detail spray. So I traded 15 of mine, for a mini swirl killer, so roughly 150$ or $10 a Bottle and I paid Freight just so I didn't have to deal with them anymore. I made a topic about having a positive or negative post about doing deals with people, to hopefully weed out the people that do bad trades.

How to become a distributor
Mbrazelton replied to Joe_Joe's question in General Detailing Discussion and Questions
I tried this no to long ago, but the big requirement is that you have a showroom for product, so take that into consideration. -
I always use the Microfiber applicator. But I keep one just for Glass Sealant. Make sure to get the window good and clean before you seal it. Also for some reason, I feel like I get the window clean, and about 2 hours later I notice a spot with alittle haze. So I usually try to clean it the next do to.

I always wash might with clean and free soap in the washing machine, and some MFR. Then dry them on low, after that sometimes i'll take a brush and fluff them a bit.

Wax on trim Removal
Mbrazelton replied to Jocsan's question in General Detailing Discussion and Questions
Next time, put VRT on the trim before you wax, it prevents the wax from sticking. -
Using BG AND PS combo questions
Mbrazelton replied to Colorado_evo's question in General Detailing Discussion and Questions
This is probably my favorite combo for a metallic car Brilliant Glaze with Paint Sealant. On non-metallic car, just regular Paint Sealant. -
Clay longevity and How to Clean
Mbrazelton replied to NM15's question in General Detailing Discussion and Questions
I usually get 5-6 cars out of clay, and then I feel like they get wore out or to full. Lately though I've had cars that were pretty gross and seems to be quicker I feel. -
New truck paint correction,then what?
Mbrazelton replied to Driftergtr's question in General Detailing Discussion and Questions
I also think it matter how much time you want to spend cleaning it weekly. If you seal it at some point you will have to put some work in to re-seal it in about 6-8 months, I personal like this because usually by that time the truck needs a good simple polish and sealant. Usually right after winter and about right before winter is when I do mine. If you ceramic coat it, you spend more time up front, but the protection last longer. I think a good sealant regime, is just as good as Ceramic Coating. There is about 10 different way to do it, just which one works good for you, same with steps. My wife has a pearl white car, and the steps I use on hers is different then my gun metal truck. Also if you want to Coat it, now would be the time because the truck has less imperfections. -
Cold weather storage
Mbrazelton replied to Burrell Images's question in General Detailing Discussion and Questions
I always pack my items up in winter and put them in the basement. Then the 6-8 items I use in the winter I keep in a trunk organizer. -
It would be nice to be able to review people you have traded with, or some sort of system to show people that someone is a positive person to trade with. We are getting a ton of new people on here everyday it would be nice to have some system.

Pet hair
Mbrazelton replied to MrRaspberryJam's question in General Detailing Discussion and Questions
I've found that putting a rubber glove on, then spraying the seat down with water or cleaner, then most of it will stick to the glove. -
I'm confused so did you ceramic coat it, or use ceramic wax. I think these are both different products and the steps or area they are used might be different. If it's like a wax I would say the same steps as using any other wax. But if you did the whole ceramic kit, that is a whole different ball game.
