    Your favourite smelling products?

    I haven't used it in ages, but Zaino Z-10 - leather in a bottle was always super memorable for me. I had a ride in a car that was treated with it last week and it caused me to try Griot's Fine Leather car scent which reproduces it to a T in my book. I may use it as my new cologne.

    Burnouts at AG - Who did this?

    I agree, very nice form, especially with the tidy little pile of powdered rubber. I little light on the right tire, but maybe someone in the drivers seat had a good lunch. ;)

    Burnouts at AG - Who did this?

    Really? I don't know if the founder and ceo of a major internet retailer would/should comport themselves in such an unrefined manner. Aww, screw it - enjoy the road Max, and keep the rubber side down! :xyxthumbs: :dblthumb2: :props: Besides, Mike can probably buff out anything that comes up...

    Optimums Opti-Coat

    Yeah, I have been thinking of the CQuartz route, but I feel like I know and understand Dr G's products. In my case the think I have to keep in mind is that I would be looking to apply it to a 2nd car, a daily driver, outside 24x7, in my case an 8 year old black jeep (wrangler) over 100K miles...

    Optimums Opti-Coat

    I'd be more than willing to sign a waiver but I still can not buy it. I guess the question is, is it that difficult to apply that is requires/mandates a $500 professional application (in addition to the product itself), even for those somewhat well versed in surface prep, and the new generation...

    Have fun, and before turning off that TC and having too much fun, make sure too keep in mind a few photos from: Chevrolet Corvette Crash Pictures ;)

    Yep, put a Chuck COW tune in a c6 and the auto auto will spin em good through second in stock form. Add intake, headers and exhaust tuned in for a little bit more.

    Optimums Opti-Coat

    Thanks I was aware of Optiseal but I've never tried it. Been using Z-CS and it works great for me (by itself, or over ZAIO/Z-5) topped with OCW for looks. Guess I got stuck on something that works and I stick with it. Unless Optiseal blows it away with looks/durability (never heard that) I won't...

    Optimums Opti-Coat

    I would love to try OOC out as well. My daily driver (black Jeep Wrangler) sits out in the muck of Chicago all of the time and I don't want to spend a lot of time with it (that I save for the vette). For now I guess I'll have to just keep slapping Z-CS on it every couple of months (with OCW...

    Why do my micro's repel water?

    It may sound goofy, but I had this problem (unknowingly, the hot water hose to my washer got jammed at the filter, must have washed them cold a couple of time), and I boiled mine for 20 minutes on the stove in a pig ole pot. They were good as new after that. I thought it was hokus-pokus when I...

    Motorhead Garage - Machine Polishing with Pinnacle - Episode 2

    Re: What it's like behind the scenes of a TV show with Dave Bowman and Sam Memmolo of Motorhead Garage! Mike, do you need the sports pack or something to watch this? I set it to record on channel 663 (FSDETHD) and when I went to watch it later it was all blank and said "no packets received...

    Re: What it's like behind the scenes of a TV show with Dave Bowman and Sam Memmolo of Motorhead Garage! I see the Aug 1 is available to record on Directv for me - thank gawd as I looked all over the guide but could never find the first show. I am so glad to see Sam and Dave back together...
