MazdaMomma Posted October 13, 2007 Report Share Posted October 13, 2007 I haven't done it yet Frank. It has been a crazy week. Plus, it has been cold as hell here. I have gotten home after dark too, so that doesn't help. One more weekend and I should have the time again. I might do it this Sunday since I am off surprisingly. I am still on call, but do not have to report in. Hopefully, it will be warmer too. I really need to clean out the cars and get them washed.

Troutman Posted October 13, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 13, 2007 It seems moisture makes buffing very hard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
///BHRpowered Posted October 13, 2007 Report Share Posted October 13, 2007 it can aid althought if your referring to wax, its a pain the ass. what I have started doing is giving the wax about 20 minutes to haze afterfirst applied, then I use a terry cloth to get a large primary layer of everything off, the I give that panel another 20 minutes or however long it takes me to do the other panels, then come back and finish buffing with the final cloth. seems to work alittle bettere Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Troutman Posted October 15, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 15, 2007 Yes I was referring to wax, I am pleased to note your method is similar to the one I have devised. Now, I purchased what I am 99% sure is the same Mother's product today, but with a different name, Naturally Black. I noticed today when I picked it up from Autobarn, it had the product name listed as 'Back to Black' on the aisle. I'm meanwhile trying to get the new version of Quik Detailer too but no luck yet. Anyway, this gives me a good opportunity to directly compare it to the Meguiars on the Corolla's big black bumpers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Synesthesia Posted October 15, 2007 Report Share Posted October 15, 2007 That appears to be the same bottle design, just a slightlt different name, however if both were on the shelf, I would have chosen the original. Shake well and it should appear as a milky almost snot like substance. I have tried the new quik detailer myself, the gold class I believe in the black bottle, results are good, but not much more then the original. -The Joker Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Troutman Posted October 15, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 15, 2007 Excellent, well I just want the new Quik Detailer for when my current one runs out - call me a perfectionist. I think the original is an incredible product as a matter of fact. Anyway, just for your assurance, compare these descriptions: Back-to-Black® As your ride’s exterior ages, rubber, plastic and vinyl exterior hardware of all colors will dry, crack, flake and deteriorate. This oxidation can be stopped and reversed with Mothers® Back-to-Black®, our favorite auto-care concoction. This trim treatment is great for all sorts of exterior hardware in all colors — bumpers, molding, louvers, window trim, vents, seals, skirts, door handles, wiper arms-anything that’s plastic, rubber or vinyl. Apply Back-to-Black® to sun-burnt plastic, rubber and vinyl to revive the factory-new sheen, then re-treat that exterior hardware regularly.

///BHRpowered Posted October 15, 2007 Report Share Posted October 15, 2007 the gold class quik detailer doesn't seem to provide the "extra shine" it claims, but works just as well as the former, although in reality Ih ave come to use it more as a lubericant for claybarring then actual touch up's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
