    Accuride/Accu-Shield Aluminum Rims

    I use the wording "clear-coat" as a substitute to whatever is actually on these Accu-Shields, because I really am not sure what these rims are coated with. I have been told by hearsay speaking voices that the coating may be some sort of a ceramic coating which is suppose to be tougher than clear...

    Accuride/Accu-Shield Aluminum Rims

    The lug nuts on this rig get torqued to around 400 Plus foot pounds. This was the main reason that the clear coat didn't hold up in the first place. That amount of torque breaks through the coating and the problem starts all over again. I contacted Accuride and they said that they have had this...

    Accuride/Accu-Shield Aluminum Rims

    I was approached last week and asked if I could possibly restore some RV Aluminum Rims. These particular rims have a coating on them and do require any buffing of polishing. However, the coating or clear coat was broken when the lug nuts were torqued to around 425 foot pounds. Once the...

    How Much of Your Work is Pre-Sale Prep?

    A vehicle has a set value on it which is manipulated through financial institutions (banks, etc., depending on condition). If someone is going to finance a vehicle, the bank will only allow so much to be borrowed, and of course that also depends on credit scores. A professionally detailed...

    I'm doing this for REAL

    Wow... you get fired and head home and work out a plan to get back to work using the resources you have. Too bad our country as a whole didn't have that kind of enthusiasm. Good for you. What ever you end up with I have a feeling that you're going to do OK.

    Overheating FLEX 3401

    Mine runs very hot also, don't know why. I know some people on here either grease or lube theirs and they say it helps some. I have had mine for over two years now, has always ran very hot, but other than that it runs like a champ.

    M105 Advice Needed

    You first have to make sure that the area you're working on is at least cool to the touch (out of the sun and heat). Second, you can always moisten the pad slightly giving you longer working time with the product. Third, make sure you're working in small areas (18" by 18" or 24" x 24" areas), up...

    Meguiar's M105 Ultra Cut vs Ultimate Compound

    M105: DA Approved Version - Also states that it works with a foam pad. For this reason I bought it and use it all the time with my Flex DA and an orange pad. Never had any issues with it and enjoy working with it.

    Huge fan of shiny tires

    All of my customers prefer the natural (no shine) look. My customers insist that if I am going to use anything shiny on their tires then don't put anything on at all.

    Marine 31 Awesome

    So I have been looking for an "all in one" for gel coats and it seems that just about everything I had tried either didn't apply well, didn't wipe off easy, or both. I ordered a small bottle of Marine 31 All-In-One Gel Coat Polish & Wax with low expectations. Not only does this stuff go on...

    This sucks!!!!!

    OC Pro and OC 2.0 are the same thing with the exception that the 2.0 has more curing time making it more manageable for the installer. If this is true, that why would it matter to go to pro from 2.0... in other words, what's the big deal?
