QUOTE(MyWifeCar @ Feb 10 2014, 09:09 AM) 2. Meg's wheel brightner and degreaser will kill your normal nozzle spray. You need to use a chemical resistant nozzle spray. oh ya using supposedly CR osren spray bottle, super degreaser no problem wheel brightener killed 2 sprayers.

With the wheel brightener, i found that you'd need to 'rinse' the internals of the sprayer using plain water after use & before storage. There's some sort of residue that would dry up and clump the sprayer nozzle & piston. For wheel brightener, of all the yeats i'm using it, i only had one quit on me.

Look at all my stars!!
|
I generally clean the sprayers by running clean water thru them before keeping into storage. I do that for all the sprayers except those used for waxes. Have yet to kill any sprayers with this habit.

Usually what's the price for halogen lamp? I can't find it in Ace Hardware. Probably have to go find in other hardware/lighting shop.

Went over to osren yesterday to get a bottle of Brilliant Shines. The guy told me to apply it after polish, than put a layer of wax on top of it. Is that the normal to use it?

Krismas Oh ya with the Sonax nano windscreen washer additive, it'll leave a stain on the bonnet Not sure if that's how it works alone (the surfactants /nano particles) or if it reacted with my existing rain x washer fluid additive (which over the years it left minimal to no stains at all) At the very least if there any stains, car wash /qd/natural rain would easily remove them. This stain, require uqd multiple passes and there's still minor left over

Even tap water would also cause those. Btw, better check your car roof too.....
