I don't want to post any video here because it would be way off topic but there's one on post #185 in this thread:

Tim, love the pics and the sedan, but I think you may have over-polished your hood - I can see right through it!!!!

 

Oops. Wouldn't put it past myself...

 

Tim, is it illegal to run no front plate in AZ?

 

Tim, amazing pics. I'm going to head over to watch the video right after this post. Thanks for sharing.

I am about to buy a white 35 coupe-2006 6mt with the 19inch rays wheels. One of the wheels has a shaded-black looking discoloration. What would you recommend I do to get it back to new? Can I do this myself or do I need to have a shop do it-and what type of shop will do wheel repairs? Estimated cost?

Thanks very much!

 

George, I have Jet Seal 109 that I got from you and was wondering if it could be used on a fiberglass boat. I looked on the Chemical Guys website and it says it can be used on fiberglass but I was just wanting your advice as to whether the formulation you sell is OK to use on boats. It will be in fresh water only, no sea water. Thanks.

 

Is there any way you can snap a picture of your wheels so I can get a better look at it? It could be embedded brake dust, oxidation, primer, etc. that you are seeing. My first step would be to thoroughly clean the wheels, if that doesn't fix it, maybe clay them, if that doesn't then polish them. That sequence is about all you can do yourself, after that I'd recommend taking it to a wheel refinishing place.

Jet Seal 109 should work fine on fiberglass. Just keep in mind that the durability will not be as long since it's in the water and exposed to different types of elements.

Most of auto detailing products can double up as boat detailing products.

Hey, how's it going? I have 06 coupe, and would like to get it cleaned up. Can you point me in the right direction as to where to go to for a good detail in the los angeles area? Been doing it myself(definitely not a pro), and would like it to be done the right way. Appreciate the help, Thanks...

 

George,

I am looking for a good two step leather cleaner and conditioner. My seats have about 30k miles on them, and so far I have meticulously taken care of them; however, I want to continue to keep them from wrinkling or tearing. Any recommendations on a cleaner and conditioner to use.
Also, for my interior, such as my door and dashboard is armorall wipes safe to use, or should I use another product? I do not want to wear out or ruin any of the parts of the car. Any interior detailing tips in General would be great.

Thanks,

Rich

 

I'd make a post in the regional section over at Autopia.org you should get a handful of detailers over there and hopefully can view their work before making a decision. After you get it done professionally, make sure you research how to properly maintain your vehicle so it stays looking like new as long as possible. I'd recommend reading over our washing and drying how-to guide as a start.

Rich,

One of the best two step products you can go with is Leatherique and happens to be our monthly sale item for May. Here's a link to an article on Leatherique going over how one of the top professional detailers uses it, along with step-by-step how-to's and pictures to give you an idea on the type of results you can expect when used properly.

For regular maintenance, I'd recommend using a product that leaves behind UV protection as well as cleans the surface. A great 1 step product is Optimum Protectant Plus.

For other tips, check our interior detailing guide.

If there's anything else I can give you a hand with, please do not hesitate to ask.

Cheers,

George

 

What would you recommend to clean "Plastic Chrome" or plastic, clad chrome?
I've got some wheel caps that look awful, including water spots that won't come off with soap & water or Windex.

 

Question. My mom plowed over the handle to my foam gun with the 08 G (the trigger piece that attaches to that hose) and it got kinda jimmied to the point where i cant get it on the foam gun.

Can i get just that piece replaced??

 

You could try a light polish, starting with something specific for plastic such as Meguiar's PlasticX, which can be found locally. If that doesn't do the trick, you can step up to a more aggressive polish.

Yep, I can put you in touch with the Gilmour parts department. PM coming your way with the info.

Cheers,

George

 

OK another question.

Iv got a bunch of zaino stuff sitting in my cabinet (kinda quit using it after one application for some reason.)

I'd like to do my moms truck with it. What is the best process with that stuff for optimal results? Like what order do you use with what stuff?


Also i have some of the P21s wax and i love it but want to try something else next time around (same price point of around $32) What else do you guys offer that does an equally good job? You have so many different waxes my head spins.
