Back in the 60's and early 70's we used lemon Pledge.

Yes Bill forgot about the lemon pledge but that was after the baby oil for us and MOP magic on the tires

I went to look at a '66 Corvette (Marina Blue?) years ago; thinking about buying it before I bought my '68. The car was unbelievably clean and shiny. I asked the owner what he used to keep the paint looking so good and he told me he had never used anything but Lemon Pledge. A few months later I bought my International Blue '68 and recalled what that fellow had told me. I tried Lemon Pledge on the Dark Blue Corvette. What an absolute MESS! At first I thought I had ruined the paint. Don't know why it worked for others and not for me but I NEVER used that stuff on a car again.

I don't think that silicon would adhear if sprayed over a well waxed car. If all the wax was stripped, it might stick to the paint better.
No buffing neccessary! ![]()

On my silver Nova I used it every other day...worked like a charm.

Most entertaining/dangerous has got to be the guys who do their snowmobile seats during a fall detail. Come winter, when it gets cold, they wrap their a$$ in nylon and hit the trail...hit it pretty hard actually in the first corner.
As for cars, I can deal with the overzealous detailers with the armour all. I can usually get that off. It's the hacks who shoot the entire underhood with clear lacquer that get their special spot in hell.... ![]() |
