They are crazy busy. Problem is they cannot find good help. Their normal hrs are 9-6pm, but from April to Sept they work til about 11pm every nite. They get to play with cool cars though. That's my M2 under a 2008 911 GT2 with a Viper next to it. Then when I picked it up it was next to a Ferrari.

Which brand PPF you use is not as important as the installer. There are alot of hacks out there and you need to be careful. I did about 6 months research on it before my M2 was delivered, not only on the PPF itself but who to use. I used a place here in Michigan because there known to be one of...

I know when I put a Bel-Ray Sticker on the front fender of my dirt bikes, it gains 5+HP

I just did a deep blue 2015 Audi with HD speed. Looked like it was washed with an SOS pad its entire life. Cost was a factor so owner just wanted AIO. I started on decklid with LC orange pad and did 2 slow passes and it took out 90% of the swirls. I used this on most of the car, but front...

I use a DA with Black finishing pad for applying wax on my boat and cars. Low speed, minimal product. It takes only 10 min to apply, and only a few to wipe off. Applying by machine you can really dial back the product making it super easy to remove.

I should rephrase..... as soon as I see anything other than 000, I replace resin. My water isn't too hard, and I know iron is very low. I think Iron is the real killer of the resin. Here in Michigan I don't use the CR from Dec to April, as a all but 2 of my rides go into storage.

Not really sure. Too me its not a big deal as I replace the resin every 18-20 months, and I know I an doing it early (when I see TDS of 1, its done). Besides, a resin refill is only $70.

When I do you wax, I use good 'ol #26

No. Softened water pre CR will not lengthen life of resin. It still has to pull out the mineral.

I have a CR System and its the best money I have spent. You can blow thru resin if you use 100% of time, but I am careful when I use mine. I try to only use it for rinse only, and that is with a 1.2 gpm power washer. If I get stuck washing in the sun, I will use it for the 1st rinse. Everything...

I just did the CQ Classic on all no Xpel areas of my M2. I left the CQ as a stand alone, but put Reload on the Xpel. I drove the car last Wed for the day and parked it. It was by no means dirty, just road stuff and brake dust. Yesterday I wanted to see if my plan worked.... coat the car and when...

Rotary and wool. Da's just can't do gelcoat like the old school way. Gelcoat is pretty tough stuff but u do need to be careful. Always keep the pad flat and never hit the edge of a sharp corner. Gel is thin in those areas and you will burn right thru. If a boat is really bad i start with 3M...

I started with just half the decklid, but then I realized that I had 3.5 min, so I bumped up my working area. The M2 is a small car. I did the doors in 2 sections (upper and lower, roof in 2 sections RH and LH, and the rear fender all in one (because half of it is PPF) Bumper I did in 3...

2 swipes: Run the bottle down the applicator, then back up. Leaves 2 lines Lighting: Zack light and 5k Par Flood lights and a Scangrip pen light for verification Temp: 73°, low humidity, in a closed garage.

I just did CQ classic(first time) on my M2 last week. I set the stopwatch on my phone. I put it on half the decklid in criss cross pattern to level, then I would take my finger (in a nitrite glove) and swipe every 20 sec or so until it felt it just barley get tacking. It was 3.30 minutes so...

Hmmmm...... Now I confused. I just finished Cquartz on my M2 last week. This is a brand new car that no one at the deal we allowed to touch. I had it delivered in trailer to xpel installer and unwrapped and washed my way. When they were done with the Xpel (full front, a pillars and rockers) I...

Clean tires with tuf shine cleaner then apply tuf shine tire coat.

The HF doesn't have the grunt to do any compounding on fibreglass. Stick with rotary. I have used the HF and a GG6 to apply wax on countless boats and it works just fine. For wax I will stick with 6" bp and black finishing pad. I can tear thru a 31" boat in no time. I am curious if the new...

Exact same for me.
