    First real detail and what a headache!

    don't beat yourself up. it takes at least 5 details to have a grasp on detailing, another 10-15 to feel competent, and many many more to master it. its gonna take a good 10-15hours of using the DA to feel really comfortable and get good results. few people get professional results the first...

    How should I clean this up?

    thats a great improvement! a PC won't do the job all its own. you need to wet sand the paint, 1000, 2000, 3000 grit. the clear coat probably looks like an orange peel and just from the way it was painted. it needs to be sanded back, then compound then polish. the PC will help alot with the...

    Todays Stupid Question...

    you will find thousands of post on autogeek where people use megs m105 and m205. its bread and butter. its professional results every time. the ultimate line is the over the counter line, its 1-2 steps down in cut, but it finishes off just as nicely.

    Todays Stupid Question...

    all in one. that means it is a product that removes swirls, oxidation and gives wax/sealant protection. what that means is it doesn't do any one of those things very well. xmt360 is an aio,it has the cut of 2, where as m205 has a cut of 4. xmt360 protect last about a month as well. kind of a...

    How do you shorten your clay time?

    I would like to try this. but 20 bucks seems like a lot. I have read reviews that it tends to cause swirls. the clay picks up contimantes then the speed of the DA will instill swirls. i suppose you could stop and kneed the clay every 12x12" section. that seems to be a pain tho. I have already...

    Applying coatings on wheels

    this question came up a few weeks ago, the OC sales rep said that wheel weights will stick to OC with no problem. I have OC on my wheels, then had them reblanced, so far no weights have fallen off in the past 8 months.

    scrapping a car for $$$?

    I did this with my old Benz. The scrap yard, pick-n-pull, would give me 300 bucks, but told me I can recycle it to the state of California for 1000. I am low income, because I am a full time Nursing student, so I got $1,500. It just needed to be running, one head light and no baseball size...

    New Car Decision, 2012 subaru wrx sti or 2013 mustang gt premium

    I hear what you are saying...but i car should not be slower than a man on a horse. Even if I were to buy a geo metro, i would expect that to be faster than a man on a horse. in the video i know its the base model, and automatic, but the car is just going in one big circle and the can't even do...

    Megs 101

    how much was it? I have been dreaming of this product for over a year ever since i read the Euro reviews on it. I heard its can't be sold in the US, doesn't meet some environmental standards. As it stands the UK will sell me 32oz for 100bucks plus shipping.
