    CamKrohn got a reaction from falcaineer in How do I clean tire shine on rubber matting?   
    I tried the tire and rubber cleaned, and it knocked down the slipperiness a bit, made the mats a nice deep black again! going to use ECO and Tire and rubber mixed and re do all my mats.

    As a Golden Retriever owner I can vouch for the stones effectiveness.  They work well.  Some seats (Like my GM trucks/SUVs) have a plush felt surface on the back of the seats and my god is that stuff impossible to clean the hair out of though. Air compressor, shop vac, stone, and the grace of God and you might get it clean.

    CamKrohn reacted to LSX Maestro in 2018 ZL1 Detail Complete   
    Spent about 10 hours on the ZL1.  Got it all detailed and she's ready for summer. 
     
    Wash Decon with Iron Remover (Had lots of purple spots, good thing I left this step in) Clay Rinse and dry Full polish with Adam's Finishing Polish + white pads  Coating Prep wipe-down Liquid Paint Sealant Brilliant Glaze Americana Paste Wax Glass Sealant (Actually did this before polishing and made cleaning the glass a breeze later) Wheel Sealant (Used a touchless silica sealant, worked great, left them glossy and slick and I didn't have to bang my knuckles up wiping and buffing)  
    The Carbon Fiber came out crystal clear.  The mosaic black trim polished out amazingly well too.  The paint was pretty much perfect but I did remove a few light sanding marks from the factory and a couple scuffs, Finishing/Correcting handled it all.  The gloss is great, really started noticing after the Brilliant Glaze.  Americana put it over the top. The whole process was extremely rewarding.

    CamKrohn reacted to shane@detailedreflections in Adams Ceramic Paint Coat!   
    The durability of a coating is variable.  It depends on the type of coating and the conditions it's subjected to.  Adam's goes on in a single layer and you can expect 18-24 months, maybe longer with good care. 
     
    Coatings will require decontamination a couple of times a year.  So clay with a soft clay, iron decontamination and reapplication of Ceramic Boost.  Ceramic Boost can actually be used almost like a quick detailer every couple of months if you'd like.
     
    The only way to remove a ceramic coating is through actual wear and tear, or by mechanical abrasion such as wetsanding or polishing.  We stripped an Adam's coating off of a vehicle and it took a pass of compound with a wool pad, compound with a foam pad, correcting polish with a foam pad and finishing polish with a foam pad to get the vehicle where we wanted it to reinstall different protection.
     
    You can put wax on a coating, but there isn't really a lot of need.  Depending on the wax you use, you may find a change in how water reacts to the coating.  One of the benefits of a coating is more durability and less maintenance (but not maintenance free).
     
    And I'll add what I always do.  The secret to a good coating installation is in the prep.  Gloss comes from prep work and not from the product.  Exceptional prep will make an exceptional finish regardless of the last step products used.  Take your time.  Be diligent.  Use different lighting and be thorough.
