    Protecting my new truck?

    Mothers clay bar is all I use, cheap and effective. I wash, rinse then use the rest of the soap and a chenille mitt to lube the clay. Makes it easy to fly around the vehicle with so many suds. Of course then I rinse again. I don't clay unless I am going to polish because clay is bound to mar...

    Best pad combo that works for you. Recommendation.

    Have you tried the Lake Country Force pads? They were designed for the Flex 3401 and other forced rotation DAs. I use the orange, white and black. I have been using Menzerna 400 for maybe 8 years or more as my go to cutting compound. Then I would go to 3800 with a white. Since I use CarPro...

    What did you do today, in regards to detailing?

    I do not like folding laundry and this is worse. If I just smash it in the recyclable container there will be no room for 2 weeks worth of cans, etc. I already have the trunk filled with cardboard to bring to the work dumpster. Buying detailing products is a lot of work....lol.

    What did you do today, in regards to detailing?

    Yes, the motor? That's for the single stall. The ceiling is 9 and a half feet. Good to see you around these parts yet. I always liked reading your posts and comments. I finally gave the forum a look after being off for 2 weeks during Christmas. Doing the yearly holiday season sales shopping...

    What did you do today, in regards to detailing?

    I used the Optimum Hyper-foam yesterday in the IK foam pro12. At first I pumped by hand and not too long after plugged the compressor in. I used 11 pumps from a Meguiars gallon dispenser pump, I believe that would be around 1 less ounce than called for at the 6 mark. Either way it put out some...

    What did you do today, in regards to detailing?

Just what I need is another gallon of detailer stuff, hopefully I like this stuff...lol We will se...

    1st Winter Wash of the Season - How is your Winter Wash this year

    I think it was about 2 ounces. It works good but I don't want to chance degrading any LSP on the paint or trim. It made the cladding on my X1 look like dookie which set off the bells and whistles for me. I used this from their site......... then multiplied by six which is the useable capacity...

    1st Winter Wash of the Season - How is your Winter Wash this year

    I used the BH touchless last year once in a IK 12 foamer. It worked really well, stripping my plastic trim of whatever I had on it. I believe it was a combination of Wolfgang exterior trim sealant and CarPro darkside. After that I decided I went overboard when I bought a gallon. Hell I even...

    Pan the Organizer product line...let's discuss@

    I randomly checked in to see what's what and I thought the whole world was now drinking the kool-aid. Good news, it isn't. Thanks for straightening out some You Tube kinks with your video, SheepStar

    Autogeek sales?

    Before, like last year wasn't it?, they seemed to have 15,20,25 percent sales frequently. It seemed like they were giving it away. Now that spring fever is here, I have been checking for the last few weeks and have not noticed an all across the board deep discount sale.

    Latex gloves?

    Adenna Dark Light 9 mil black nitrile make those Ravens look like a joke. Ravens are our 1 use nothing serious gloves and never reuse them. The Adenna Dark lights I use until they get nasty with oil or something similar.

    Best Glue to fix FLEX 3401 Backing Plate?

    Make sure to clamp it. I would spread thin and sandwich it between some pieces of 2 x 6, then clamp. Looks like it dries slow. I have good luck with Loctite superglue gel. I always clamp when gluing anything if possible. Hope you get the backing plate resolved

    I hate black

    If black is polished and coated it will still look good from a distance when somewhat dirty. Pollen , mud and salt residue (in winter) will mess with any cars appearance. I polished my 2004 black heap 2 years ago then coated with Uk3 and Gliss. I think it has been 2 weeks since I washed it. It...

    Tuf Shine oopsie.

    I do not have any idea what happened there. Hopefully this works. Can't clean a tire, can't post a picture.....one of those days. I tried 2 different ways, hopefully they appear. Weird, because I still see the first one. Worked before the way I initially did it. The first picture in opening...
