    Ceramic coatings and parking sensors

    Hello Everyone, A local car club I am apart of had an interesting topic. Ceramic coatings and sensors. One person was stating that a ceramic should be done around a sensor (for acc, parking, lane assist) instead of over it in blaming a recent install from some shop as to why their cars...

    Waterless/Rinseless wash for coating

    Hi Everyone, Perhaps it is the ash that is falling outside, or being a little more bored than usual with quarantine still, but I am kind of eager to try out a waterless/rinseless wash. The main reason why I am open to trying a waterless wash is to not replace traditional washing, but to have...

    Driven: Tesla Model S Performance

    Hi Everyone, I recently drove a Tesla Model S Performance and I wanted to share my thoughts on it relating to its price point. I will try to keep this short and sweet. There are a lot of thoughts I have regarding the car, but I don't think anyone really wants to read 10 paragraphs from me...

    How late can you apply a topper

    Hi Everyone, I was genuinely curious about something, how late can you apply a topper like Gtechniq EXO? I know usually you apply a topper at the time of a ceramic coating, but I had a friend ask me if you could apply EXO a year or so later after a ceramic was put on (Gtechniq, CarPro etc). I...

    Avoid car washes

    Hi Everyone, Recently I worked on my friends 2017 Challenger Scat Pack with CSL+EXO. While it was nice to teach someone how to do the entire process itself, what wasn't nice was correcting a car littered in scratches predominately from car washes and foam brushes from self cleaning bays. If...

    101 octane with S/C

    Hi Everyone, I recently moved out to CA for the next couple of years and one thing I hate out here is gas. I know E85 is legal, but from Monterey CA to San Jose is 90 miles round trip. This leaves me with pump gas, until recent. I recently found out that I have access to VP101 unleaded...

    Hi Everyone, 16 months ago I decided to swap coatings on my Mustang to try Gtechniq’s “prosumer” offering for ceramic coatings in Crystal Serum Light (CSL) and EXO.

    Clutch

    Hello Everyone, I hate to keep creating threads, but in my research I can't really seem to find a consistent answer on what people who are running SC's are using. Especially in my model year Mustang. I have tried hitting the search button for some of the clutches I am looking at without luck...

    Tunes, glorious tunes

    Hey Everyone, I have been doing some research off and on the past few months in regards to tunes. I am not new to the aftermarket life but as with any tuner crowd there are differences from Make to Make and Model to Model. While I am open to other tunes my research has lead me to believe that...
