  1. Since the video does not address using Ceramic Boost my question is ,is it still necessary to use CB as you recommend with the more traditional ceramic product?
  2. You keep polishing a defect in the paint when you finally realize its a shadow from a tree.
  3. So does this take the place of the more expensive difficult to apply ceramic coating in the little bottle? How are they different?
  4. Morning What size is the orifice on the Adams foam cannon? 1.1 or 1.2? As it seems to make a difference if one is using eclectric or gas power washer.
  5. Ive used Adams VRT,before it was super, and APC since 2009. Good results but I am looking for more permanent actual color coatings which then can be enhanced by VRT
  6. Has anyone used the more permanent trim dye products as opposed to the dressings?
  7. It is a Craftsman Lithium 20volt I used the M heavy duty restoration with the yellow wool pad and their headlight polish. I have not been able to get crytal clarity using the Adams methods Sand paper is 1000 and 3000 I dont think the oxidation is inside Maybe I am not polishing long enough Thank you all
  8. Does anyone know how to replace the wall charger for the Brinkmann Xenon light? For less than 20.00? When I try to restore my headlights, I first sand with two grades of paper ending with 3000. When I polish with a drill and wool pad the lens gets clearer but never back to crystal clarity. Am I missing something?
  9. I used to go to the clinics in Torrance but they were always done inside, The one in Anaheim also inside.
  10. Since this isn't a suggestion for a product I thought Id put it here. I would like to see a video of a paint correction outdoors in the elements. I never quite get to get the polish to flash due to sun and breeze and extra Detail Spray doesn't do it. Anyone else like to see a technique or problem in video form. Remember without pictures its worthless.
  11. Just ran across a method of restoring faded black trim using a heat gun. Old wives tale? Or legit? Its all over YouTube
  12. Putting on my clean white uniform with bow tie and cap Pumping 102 octane for .28 cents Washing the windows checking the oil and tires Driving people home in my own car when theirs had to stay in the shop Actually working at that Chevron was great
  13. Ok say you've corrected the paint, used a sealant, then maybe two coats of wax. Then normal driving and good washing techniques. after a while you will get swirls. Now are the swirls in the wax and sealant or the paint. If you stripped the coatings would the paint be blemish free? Of course I understand hard rubbing would go through to the paint but just minimal day to day use?

  15. Your neighbor thinks something bad happened to your family if you DIDN'T wash your car one weekend. That was funny, I was just lazy. Good neighbors
  16. According to Marty Mcfly in Back to the Future "all the best stuff if is made in Japan"
  17. Nah, after all this is a detailing site, just interesting how everything is so interconnected. Now if I hear the clay is from off shore thems fighting words
  18. My Saab was built in Sweden, however, after GM bought the company the quality went down, this has become a very complicated world.
  19. You know that your car is worth more than its really worth

  21. Now that I see you are a chemist, is it possible the polishes are too old? Even with liberal use of DS?
