    Hurricane Irene Coming for us in the North East

    1 tree down in neighbors yard. Lost power for 1 minute. So far so good. I have a feeling we haven't seen the worst yet. Looks like western NH is getting it much worse. 13x,xxx without power. Hopefully with the power companies planning ahead they wont be without for too too long.

    I have been taking it slow. I started on the hood due to the fact that it is the one panel that could use a respray anyways due to a few good size chips. I was able to slowly remove/dull the major scratches or RIDS. However, the spots where the sap was, I believe there is very little, if any...

    I had wondered if I should consider the surbuf pads. My fear is that my clear is already getting a bit on the thin side. If this is the case, i should probably stay away from something that aggressive, correct? I did ask for the money back, He wanted to attempt to fix it first. I didn't...

    Hurricane Irene Coming for us in the North East

    Just got back from Rye beach. Weather isn't too bad yet. But the ocean was pretty crazy. I counted about 5 crazy bastards out there surfing. Just talked to my little brother, he's already in his wet suit heading that way. :bash:

    Hurricane Irene Coming for us in the North East

    I'm in New Hampshire, right on the ocean. we have had a lot of rain as well. I completely understand why people are so worried. I shouldn't have used the word ridiculous. Perhaps a bit dramatic. But better safe than sorry. We are all stocked up on batteries and water, as well as canned food...

    Hurricane Irene Coming for us in the North East

    People up here are being a bit ridiculous over the 10 in. of rain we are supposed to get. I would imagine it would be the same if people down south were bracing for 10 in. of snow like it was the end of the world. We'd all be up here laughing. I mean no disrespect at all, and wish that...

    Thanks. I have had pretty good luck on the hood getting most of the scratches out. But some still remain, as do the water spots. but they are faint and cant feel them. I just ordered 5.5 inch lc pads. Hopefully switching to those will help. The 6.5 just feel too big. Also ordered 3.5 backing...
