    Winter Beater Salt Fest

    One of the Revology Mustangs came thru a few months ago: https://revologycars.com/ The attention to detail on the build was exquisite. Guess I’ll always be a Mustang guy; would love to see a Boss 429 come in but so far, no joy. Full gallery if you’d like to see more pics...

    Winter Beater Salt Fest

    Certainly a fun place to go each day, never know what’s going to show up each week. Had a Singer DLS last year, they took the ‘Lightweight’ part seriously when building that one! Every little bit counts I guess. The $$$ cars are interesting for sure but getting ‘old school’ cars always piques...

    Kamikaze Over Coat 6.0

    They’re pretty big on Kaizen Theory for sure. “The definition of Kaizen includes the idea that small, incremental changes and adjustments in working methods or processes lead to increased efficiency, improved quality and reduced waste. This is usually done through the active participation of...

    What's in your backyard?

    We would occasionally get harmless black/rat snakes slithering around. Harmless but I’d still scream like a little girl when I ran across them 😱 Not sure where this guy spent most of his time but he’d show up every now & again to accost the neighborhood bird feeders.

    Hose reels

    Indeed…the ‘buy in’ is a bit more substantial but the payoff in performance is worth it. 10+ years bolted to my wall and still rolling smooth with nary a drip or leak. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

    How Do You Maintain Coated Vehicle

    For the most part, foam with pH Neutral Shampoo, wash it & call it a day. If'n I'm extra motivated I'll hit it with a maintenance product for fun 'cuz that's the easy part & I get to feel like I'm doing something 'good'; I can convince myself it adds an extra bit of 'pop' whether it actually...

    What did you do today, in regards to detailing?

    Same weather here in OH. Was a balmy 37 degrees so quick low pH foam/rinse, high pH foam/rinse, shampoo foam/rinse…dirty again by time I got home but at least not totally grungy…been a sloppy January. Before: Low pH High pH Bit of shampoo Beads are back…kind of. With all the grime...

    New wheels getting coated

    Nice…haven’t seen hide nor hair of 22ple in quite a while…wasn’t sure they were still around/available. Bit of an enigma but always liked their offerings.

    Whats Your Age & Whats Your Occupation

    First ‘real’ job was a car wash when I was 14; was there off and on until I got outta college. Went to work for a legal publisher once out of college, stayed there nearly 25 years doing tech support/internal software development until they offshored our satellite location in 2010. Weaseled my...

    Saver Applicators--Suede or Terry?

    Thin Microfiber are my favorites. The smaller Mini’s work nicely on wheels as do the finger mitts. Finger mitts also good for leather coatings. Tried the Saver Applicator cloths w the block but immediately didn’t like them…too bulky overall. Suede was nice when trying to get a very even thin...

    Black Friday Sales

    I always feel kinda bad when I see an order for something like $97.01 and think "Geez, just add (1) 300gsm towel for $1.99 and you'll hit the FREE SHIPPING threshold, saving the $9.99 Flat Rate charge and you get a towel to boot; net gain is $8 and a towel! The downside to free shipping (for...

    Black Friday Sales

    Speaking as someone now on the other side of the shipping scale, after doing an unusually large amount of promos in 2023/2024, FREE SHIPPING promos always seemed to generate more responses than %-off, BOGO or other types of promotions. The Amazon effect, perhaps? Sent from my iPhone using...

    Question for the experts - product

    Since it first came out, I have always had an inability to use RainX without creating a streaky, smeary mess. I liked Aquapel too the few times I used it; easy and did reasonably well. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro
