    What's the last form of exercise you've done?

    Re: what's the last form of excercise you've done? I swim daily with my two boys. Any form of water will do Pool, Lake, River, Ocean. When I was young my father and I would swim out into the ocean for a few hours non-stop until you couldn't see land. He said it'd make a man of me, those were...

    How old is everyone? (kind of a poll)

    34 years old happily married with 2 boys (a 5-year-old and a 10-year-old), I'd detail a lot more if I had the time (work two jobs so I can retire early).

    Wash and dry a car in less than 30 minutes!

    Interesting, so you washed without any buckets, and just one mitt? I assume you use the foam gun to rinse the mitt out after each panel? Was that mitt also used for the face of the wheels or you did the wheels just with the one brush? I'm looking to speed up my weekly maintenance wash take...

    How to use a foam gun by Mike Phillips

    Interesting I had orignally used my foam gun with Mr. Pink and wasnt that impressed. I ended up using around 8-10oz per wash in my foam gun and went trough the gallon in no time. Personally I find Meg's Hyper Wash foams much more and cleans better than Mr. Pink (if your looking for another soap...

    How to use a foam gun by Mike Phillips

    Amazingly thorough write-up Mike, as always. I actually never knew what those screws were for on the foam gun. Q: In your opinion, is there any advantage for using a foam gun over a foam cannon/lance? I personally prefer my foam cannon/lance over the foam gun because it uses less soap, less...

    Water Spots After Washing

    I do notice that some LSP's have more water spotting after a rain storm than others. I've found that WGURW (Uber rinseless) and CPHF (hydro foam) have the most water spotting after a rain storm. These aren't permanent water spots requiring correction (simply QD/WW off) just makes the car look...

    Review: CarPro Dlux & Full engine detail write up

    Re: Review: CarPro Dlux & Full engine detail write up Yup, it was soaking wet, but I took it off and washed it before starting the car. It's a washable K&N filter. To wash the filter you need to remove it. Once removed I used the K&N refill/reload kit that has a cleaner (like brake...

    Review: CarPro Dlux & Full engine detail write up

    Application: I found CarPro Dlux very easy to apply. I used the supplied foam block and micro suede applicator. The bottle has a little plastic insert that only allows the product to drip out one drop at a time (very user-friendly). The smell was terrible (strong solvents) and I recommend...

    Have a question about the Deep Gloss Paint Sealant V3.0 & Grit Guard pad washer

    I don't own a pad cleaner, but I do clean my pads. My process: When I intend to use any pads I prepare a buck of APC and water (random ratio, just poor till it looks good). As I use the pads I put them in this bucket to soak until I can get around to cleaning them (sometimes for days). I wash...
