    DA Nerves

    I used a DA for the first time ever a few weeks ago. I practiced on my dad's John Deere tractor, as I had the same concerns as you, putting a tool I've never used on my cars paint. If you can, practice on something that isn't as valuable as your car. I'm sure you can find an old hood or...

    Removing residue from dealer sticker

    With the goo gone, don't just spray it on. Spray or pour it onto a cloth or paper towel and hold that onto the area. Let it sit there if you can, or just keep it pressed up against the car. Let it really soak in for a while.

    Went to Local Cars and Coffee, business questions...

    As someone who attends and organizes some small cars and coffee events, I wouldn't want someone who has never been to an event before show up and start self promoting all over the place. However, if you talk casually about what you do, and do it in a way that doesn't make it seem like the...

    What can i do about consumer fraud? RETRO SOLUTIONS SCAM

    I'm no lawyer but the actions you decide to take will be based on how much compensation you think you can get. If you take them to small claims court, and they only award you $200, well how much is it going to cost you in fees, and in time spent, to actually get that amount? Is it worth it...

    Newbie looking for first DA Polisher.

    I'd go with the PC... Actually I just did. As a new guy to this whole world, I was very impressed with the PC. I looked at the HF in store, and ended up getting the PC. It is very well built, feels very sturdy in your hands, and that helps to inspire confidence. This rings true with many...

    Ok detailing gods, I joined just to seek your wisdom on this - ENGINE BAY FILM

    I just got finished working and restoring under the hood of my 1995 e36 M3. My airbox had that same film on it! I originally though someone spilled coke or a beer while working under the hood, and never cleaned up the residue. Same thing as you, I could scrape it off with my fingernail...

    Pad Identification

    I received a pad with my PC 7274xp when that came in a few days ago. It was white, but looks really generic, it was inside the PC box; I don't think I'd ever use it. Maybe it came in with something else you ordered?
