Phil can you please tell me what all the differences are in the clay bars. I have the Adam's Clay bar professional and wanted to know the differences. Is one better than the other? Thanks again.

Does the colors mean anything? Is one better than the next?

 

[DetailersDomain]

you can get medium grade, fine grade etc.

colors are all over the place.

our grey is medium grade our blue is our fine clay bar.

What's a good wheel cleaner that can get the buildups of dust off my wheels without stripping the paint? I normally use meguires.

Do you guys have any tips or suggestions to fix these "spots" on my wheels? Or would I need to have the wheel paint redone? I figure its coming off due to the mag chloride they use in the winter time up here in Colorado.

Picture doesn't work.

'04 Porsche. yellowed and hazey even soonish after buffing.
Need something to keep the yellow haze from coming back on my headlights.
I have used the OTS kits like you get at the auto parts stores and have now resorted to inventing my own solutions of sandpaper and various mixes.
The results are fantastic but the haze comes back after a few weeks to months.


What am I missing? Got something to keep that yellow crap from coming back?

Sonax Full Effect Wheel Cleaner would be good for that wheel but you may need to hand polish some of that grime off, a good tip use a wheel sealant or wax to protect your wheels.

thanks for posting up here with that question its a good one.
more than likely you polished thru all the protective coating that comes with most headlights.
that being said you can clean them up again and then use a coating to try to slow down the yellowing.

Opti coat

if you can swing it buy a new set because they will continue to happen.

I appreciate the help. 1,000 dollars per assembly is steep and am trying to avoid it. lol
