    New car!!!!

    The white looks awesome. I will have to check out that video later. I need to figure out what wax will best make the black flecks pop. Here is my first detail on it: http://www.autogeekonline.net/forum/show-n-shine/56622-new-fiat-500-sport.html

    New Fiat 500 Sport

    I know, crazy isn't it?! However, when I bought the Jaguar used I wanted a small sporty car but with two children, one in diapers I felt I had to be responsible. Now the oldest is in college so I don't need a 4 door. But still, a HUGE change in driving. Some better, some not.

    UDM Trouble

    I have used the same extension cord before with no trouble. Still, good idea. I will give it a try. Maybe the extension cord has gone bad.

    UDM Trouble

    I used, or tried to use my UDM today. Half way through the detail the machine started to slow down. I had to switch on and off and adjust the speed. It was like the power was going in and out.

    New Fiat 500 Sport

    As I stated in an earlier post I traded in the Jaguar and bought a smaller simpler car. A 2012 Fiat Sport, black (nero) with two tone (black/red) leather seats. Did first detail today. I am so out of shape! Have not detailed in a long time so I really felt it today! Even with it being new and...

    New car!!!!

    I imagine it would fit in the back of your truck! A tiny thing but still comfortable. Bigger than the Smart car! Yes, cup holders are a problem. But, usually I am driving the car lone so not such a big deal. When my wife and I are together we take her car.

    New car!!!!

    Howdy ya'll! I have been remiss in posting and car detailing. Summer was so hot in Dallas and I have been incredibly busy with work. Sad news, I sold the Jaguar :( At 9 years old and 84K miles the maintenance costs were mounting. Still a great car, but long term did not make sense to me...

    Replacement for UDM

    I have the UDM and it is starting to have some issues. I don't use it much. Yesterday I did a detail with it and running at high speed it started to smell like a hot engine smell. Then it slowed down several times. I think it was over heating. What should a occasional hobby user buy? I want...

    2001 Mercedes Benz Detail

    Good friend's 2001 Mercedes Benz. Daily driver with no garage. Sits in the Texas sun all day and under trees all night. Lots of bird bomb etchings. The headlights were in bad shape so I bought the Wolfgang headlight restore kit. But, she had someone work on the headlights before I had a chance...

    Garage lighting suggestions

    Very nice setup on the lighting. I have been wanting to do something similar for a long time. The surge suppressor mounted by the garage opener plug is brilliant!

    Hail Damage repaired!

    A month or so back Dallas has tornadoes and hail! I was in Boston on business. When I returned to DFW airport I discovered that the trunk of my Jaguar was heavily damaged by the hail. I was under covered parking but the hail blew in at an angle. USAA insurance rocks! They quickly handled the...

    Review: SONAX Dashboard Cleaner

    I am a big fan of PB NL for interior and have used it for years on all my cars and friend/ family cars I have cleaned. One of my basic products. However, on the Mazda we have, the NL does not work like I want on the dash. For some reason it streaks and leaves the dash to shiny. I have to really...

    Need Some Suggestions

    I bet the color is the Graphite. Really good point about the EX-P! Hmm, maybe BH and Natty's or Souvern. Then again, WG Glaze sounds good if it has some polishing ability. So, PB BH and wax (either Natty's or Souvern) or WG Glaze and wax I do have a RO

    Need Some Suggestions

    I told a buddy I would detail his BMW. It is a dark grey color, looks like there may be some flecks but it looks like a muted color, not shiny. But then maybe that is because I have only seen it dirty! It doesn't look like it needs correction; however, I've not seen it clean in sun yet. Some...

    Camaro - V6 vs. V8, not sure what to do.

    Bonus points to you for using the word "conundrum". Save you money! Stay with the V6 and cool your heels for a couple of years. That's my 2 cents.
