    Exhaust Openings

    This is for the trim rings in the exhaust openings in the rear bumper. I’m not sure if this material will hold up to a variety of products. I was thinking someone may have dealt with the trim rings. I’ll see if I can get some of the P21S. Thank you for the feedback, Bob Sent from my...

    Exhaust Openings

    What are you using to clean the chrome (maybe faux chrome) trim around the exhaust openings? The carbon buildup will not come off with simple soap and sponge. Sent from my iPhone using AGOnline

    2015 MKZ with factory polished aluminum wheels

    I just purchased a pre-owned MKZ for my DD. I'm new to factory polished aluminum wheels. Do the factory wheels require polishing or are they coated with some type of protection? Looking for the best method for cleaning and protecting. Sent from my iPhone using Autogeekonline mobile app

    Clay bar

    I was told that the Griot's clay is more aggressive than the Megs sold at the big box retailers, so I thought I would give it a try. I'm working on a severe issue with paint. It is fallout from a powder coating business that is next door to a friend's shop. I'm using Griot's clay bar for the...

    Packing up for the Autogeek Roadshow Class in Oconomowoc, Wisconsin - August 12th & 13th

    Outside of the tools, how much of that comes back with you? Meaning, do the students have an opportunity to buy any of the leftover products?

    No idea in regard to the IronX, sorry. Unless you find out for sure, I wouldn't chance it. Congrats on your new ride! I'm a big fan of Mustangs

    Lights for garage

    I picked up one of the LED shop lights from Costco and mounted it on a tripod. The issue I ran into with it was all of the I divi dual lights reflected like a mirror in my black car. IMO it was difficult to see what you're working on due to the reflection. I wonder if tubes would be better? I...

    Removing Paint from leather

    Had the same issue. I had marine grade oil base paint on my jeans when I sat in my car. I tried multiple products without any luck. I came across a person working on touch ups with used cars at one of our large dealerships. He has a portable business. I showed him the paint and he use a rattle...

    Protect Your Car This Winter!

    Just put a full set in our Yukon XL. Very impressed with how the mats completely cover all of the interior floor. Is the TechCare a cleaner, protectant or all in one?

    Best video ever on how to machine buff a car from start to finish

    Great video! Many will appreciate this true how to video. A few questions I had were answered with the numerous posts. However, I do still have a couple of questions. Once you determined the white pad and swirl remover was not aggressive enough, you moved on to compound and an orange pad. When...
