Aquapel can usually be found at PPG glass shops and at some parts stores.

If you want a long-lasting RainX type product, get some Aquapel.

I've got two bottles of it. I'm not sure how the directions are absurd and make it seem you only need one TSP per gallon... Quote: Directions 1. Rinse surface with water. 2. Mix 1 ounce of Ultimate Wash & Wax per gallon of water in a wash bucket.... That is a pretty clear statement of what...

3/4 cup is about 6 ounces, which is much closer to the 1 oz per gallon you should use (the directions state this). 4 teaspoons is 0.667 ounces, which would be good for about 1/2 gallon of water; not 5. It's amazing what following the directions can do

I get where you are going with it. I think that has more to do with the brightness of the moon though, lol, as long as the paint isn't covered in oxidation or CC failure.

Wrong type of product. Meguiar's Quick Detailer is a cleaner wax, not a detail spray.

M66 Quick Detailer is a great AIO wax (one of two bottles of wax I've actually used up). I've only gone to D151 PRC because I needed a product with a stronger cut.

I like using it on cowls, it gets into all of the little spaces where I can't get to with my regular protectant on an applicator pad or towel, and on large pieces like running/step boards (of course, wiping it down after a bit to get rid of the slickness).

Not much you can do; I'd chalk it up to lesson learned.

I use Obsessive Detail Wheel Seal.

Cerium Oxide, which comes in the glass polishing kits.

The trick for any tire product to look good and last is to clean the tire very well. I generally use Meguiar's. I picked up a can of the cheapest tire shine product I could find at the time, Armor All, a while back as I was using it in the wheel wells. I applied it to a clean tire and it did the...

Why even start with a cleaner wax (which NuFinish isn't) and then move onto an actual cleaner? That's backwards, switch it around and proceed. You can use either ScratchX or a compound like Ultimate Compound. ScratchX is more for "spot" treatment. Your choice, but you really only need one. You...
