Mystery stain on new Mercedes rim
Published (2009-11-21 12:35:00)
that doesn't look bad at all. Could be from brake dust, though it looks like dirty water spots. Try a little bit of diluted APC with a brush. You might need to clay it but i highly doubt it. Stain should come out fairly easy.

What do Dealerships use for...
Published (2009-11-19 07:58:00)
Some dealerships use AutoInt/ValuGard, and that's not *bad* stuff. Stoddard used to use decent 3M products (dunno what they use now). As I've posted before, the dealer applied "lifetime sealants" (scare-quotes intentional) work out OK for some people I know; they get them for free as part of the new car bargaining and then actually insist that the dealer do the no-cost rejuvenation on a regular basis. Doesn't...

can this be saved?

Repaint. Wet sanding will not help.

You state that the wax didn't give you the result you wanted. All of the "pop" is really in the prep. If the paint doesn't look fantastic before you put wax/sealant on there, its not going to get much better.

Every dealership has their own product they try to upsell... they are all just different sealants basically and none are worth the money you pay.

Have you priced what a new engine plus install is going to run? Its not going to be cheap. Cut your losses, not worth it. PS If you don't maintain your next car better, you will be in the same boat all over again becuase the Altima is a pretty reliable car to begin with , IF you maintain it.

Some people swear by using just water for claying, so they can get the right "bite"; I like to use car wash, others wouldn't touch clay-to-car without a dedicated lube. You just have to experiment and see what works for you.

I detailed my first car today - Honda Civic in metallic grey. I was disappointed with the results. I've not posted photos because it started raining 20 mins after I finished buffing the wax and hasn't stopped since.
Here's the procedure I followed:
AG Bodwash Shampoo->Poorboy's Professional Polish->AG Extra Gloss Protection->AG HD Wax
I left the AG EGP on for 3 hours and left ...

Hmmm...
What speed are you using? I'm thinking you need something with more correcting power than the Swirl Remover and maybe even a compound with a yellow pad.
I use GlossHaus, and I'd probably have a pass with the medium compound/orange pad and see what that does, going to the aggressive compound/yellow pad if necessary.

Well to give you an idea on wholesale pricing, that car would go for about
$32k at auction.

I have absolutely no experience with this, but from my perusing forums I believe I have seen Phil at Detailers Domain to this exact thing in his extensive detailing posts. (I could be wrong though...just wanted to point you in that direction in case you are interested)

So was it really 'this' active a few years ago, or were those bots.

I remember the 300k thread.
I wonder if Acuras are still made like this one, or were you just very very lucky.

Once you get the hang of it, you should be able to wash your car in 30
minutes or less. Just takes a couple uses to really get the process down.

I don't use 2 buckets when I wash my cars. Clients want it and like it so I
do with their cars. With a microfiber mitt or mitts with a bunch of little
stringy things coming off of it I find debri and dirt gets caught in there
wheather you have 2 buckets or not. I use a schmitt and if anything is on
there I either flick it off or it comes off in my one bucket with grit
guard. I have tried ...

Most dealerships use whatever was on sale when they placed their order.

I primered my eclipse YEARS ago flat black. Before it become cool to do so. I hated going places and people asking "when you gonna paint it"? IT IS PAINTED!!!!! Now its cool, I dig it, always have. It looks mean, I wanted to do it to my Ghia but I like messing with the paint too much LOL. Some of the cars now with these "paint jobs" are not painted, some are covered in vinyl.
