it's a flawed method of confirming whether an LSP is present or not. Because water beads on clean surfaces, ie condensation on the side of your cup, most windows or glass surfaces produce beading effects as well. And water beads on oils and waxes as well. Can the effects on beading by a wax or...

Beading occurs on a clean clearcoated surface, or any surface that is free of contaminants for that fact. So to say that the IPA brought back the LSP is completely false.

The font looks good! Looks very professional. Maybe drop a shadow on that red triangle to match the rest

wow that is excellent craftsman ship. the fitment on that drawer looks manufactured. and the gloss on the table top is as expected of an AGian ;)

I had tried a 5.0hp 5 gal craftsman. It was decently powered but I didn't like the shape of it so i returned it. I then bought a Ridgid WD4522 4.5 Gallon also 5.0hp and OMG. This thing was a beast compared to the craftsman. And do get the claw tool. It is amazing! The cool thing about the rigid...

Saw this post on the subaru forums. The guy used some brick/tile cleaner to remove heavily baked on brake dust. This stuff is super caustic so careful! lol He claims its safe on wheels but who knows :\ Baked On Brake Dust Removal Solution Found - NASIOC

All I got is m105. Rupes 21 should be here today. if thats not enough, i got the makita :)

My friend said he thinks it was repainted lol.

if you look at the 4 o'clock of the sun's reflection you will notice something that looks a lot like orange peel. but it is not orange peel. The finish is dull and the light disperses tremendously compared to what swirls do. It is almost like a matte finish.

Hey AGians, I'm going to work on my friend's TL this weekend and I noticed this section of paint looking really funky. Is this clear coat failure? or a bad paint job? Please lend me your expertise! :) Thanks!

I've pulled out 2000 grit with PC no problem. I used m105 wit 3" mf cutting pad which pulled out the majority of the sanding marks. the camera couldn't pick up the remaining defects, called tracers. But with a mf polish pad and m205 it leveled it out perfectly. the mf pads do some magic! I know...

Haha I have a few after pictures of some luxury cars, but not really any before pictures D: I will be performing paint correction on a 2007 Acura TL with some major swirls. I will definitely take some before & after + 50/50 shots of this. My neighbor has an F360 and also a old school Pantera. I...

dude.. your logo and your business card kick major ass. do you design them yourself?

Hello AGians, Today was my first day as a weekend warrior! Worked on a 2011 WRX hatchback. It was pretty exciting :) Here is my business card design!

great info guys! :) Is QD or water acceptable while using a wool pad?

You guys kick ass =) psynx: I tried spraying some qd, but still dusts a bit. I don't see FG400 on the menzerna chart.. is it more abrasive than PG1000? mach1usmc: i am a big fan of CG myself! are you using mf or foam pads?

Hey Everyone! I've been using M105 and I absolutely love the results, however, I am not a big fan of the dusting. Could anyone recommend another compound that produces similar results while remaining dustless? Your kindness is much appreciated :)

the orange peel is from the clear coat. this can be removed by either wet sanding followed by compound and polish. there are a few new types of pads that are even more abrasive than normal, these are the velvet and denim pads that remove. someone here on the forums has tested these and they work...

I think during the entire year you basically have to start working on preventative measures (preventing business drought) for your winter season. By this I mean that you should regularly educate your customers that winter 'tis the season to be putting extra protection onto their cars. A great...
