Hello Ray - as a general rule of thumb, yes, it is harder to see swirls on lighter colored cars than darker colored cars. That said, I've seen silver cars just scream swirls. Can you post any pics?

Hello and welcome! Which Rupes did you buy?

Wow! That is quite a caravan! Stunning.

I think the answer is - it depends. Do the baggie test and you will know if you need it. The Flex is a beast that gets the job done...there are a lot of great features to this machine. Over time, for me, I grew tired of "fighting it". It has a tendency of wanting to run on you. I heard...

Well said. One thing to consider about the polishes is the amount of dusting and whether it uses diminishing abrasives. As I recently commented on another post, I used to not mind dusting but over time it started to drive me nuts which drew me to Wolfgang and Menzerna. I've heard great...

Awesome idea to get your son into detailing and it would be a great father-son bonding experience and yes, all these products are available on AG. My daughter has zero interest in detailing but occasionally tells me that I need to spend more TLC on our DD. Dhat's set up is definitely a good...

I used CCS pads exclusively over the years on my PC and Flex 3401. I opted not to try out different pads, rather, broadening my experience was more focused on trying different products. That said, when I added the Rupes mini to my arsenal I immediately knew there things I liked and disliked...

Hey Petee - welcome to the forum.

Nice job - all your planning and hard work has come through. Hopefully you had a lot of fun in the process. Several have mentioned the pollen issue in FL. Sounds pretty bad.

A few months ago I was in the service center for an exotic car dealership. They were the "delivery" site for a guy who bought a LaFerrari directly from Ferrari in Italy. Yeah - if you've got $1.4 million to spend on a car, this ones for you. Upon receiving the car, the service center went...

I really don't have much more to add other than pick up some microfiber cleaner and make sure you don't toss them in the dryer using high heat.

You are going to love the stool. After you have used it, you will realize what you have been missing out. No more getting up to move the bucket to change spots.

Rats...I can't seem to include the link. You could check out the Guzzler Waffle Weave. I tried to include the link to the different MF towels.

Ouch! Are you saying I'm old - lol.

Building off of Setec Astronomy, get a good mitt. At this point I would recommend a MF mitt, they tend to be less expensive and less maintenance. You should use the two bucket method and ensure that you are using the grit guards. Investment into the right MF towels is a wise decision. You...

Yes! I waited for the pic and I definitely was not disappointed! :laughing:

When I use my cycling light, I find that I have to put some distance between the paint and the light. The center of the beam is so bright, it's hard to find the swirls. But if I pull the light away and focus away from the center, I start to find the swirls. Detecting swirls on a color like...

I have an indoor car cover but I do know a little about car covers in general and yes, you will get what you pay for. In general, I would recommend any outdoor cover that is made of sunbrella or similar material. Good boat covers are made from sunbrella and have good breathing properties. If...

Reading your post brings visions of Chevy Chase and Christmas Vacation to mind :laughing: What sort of fixture would you use? I have a pretty strong cycling light that I occasionally use that produces 600 lumens and there are times when I think this is a bit of an overkill.

I'm using the Wookie's fist and the Aussie Merino. As Audios S6 mentions, there is a little bit of maintenance involved with these but I'm quite happy with them.
