Where about in NY are you from? Racin10s: I live about 20 minutes outside of Rochester in Farmington...

If you drag your fingernail across the chrome you should be able to tell if they are above surface or below. If you feel your fingernail catching or skipping across the surface, than they are above the chrome, and you should be able to remove them. I wouldn't focus on how to hide these, rather...

Very nice transition! Even in the before pictures, you can see that there is a beautiful layer of paint underneath all of those scratches. In the after shots, that metalic paint job looks fantastic. That looks like it was a very rewarding job to do...

I can't remember if the label says anything about it, but I've heard it said on here a few times; that ONR can be used as a water softener. As far as the "feel" goes, it's not going to feel soapy. Actualy I think ONR is anti-soapy. Next time you're doing a traditional 2bm wash drop a couple oz...

I'm certainly no profesional, so you probably want to wait for more advice. Just from reading what you describe, and not seeing any pictures, it sounds like the jump from scratch-x to 85rd was too big of a jump. I would imagine the scratches left after you worked the 85rd where left over...

I'm interested in this giveaway. You know, if I have too...

I bet he at least uses the Mothers bottles.... As for the product inside the bottles, who knows. The fact that he holds a Mothers bottle in a commercial holds no weight in my opinion of that product. It just means that they have the marketing budget to get Chip Foose. That being said, I'm...

Motorola Droid user here. I love it! I still haven't heard from anyone using a different Andriod based phone, so I'm not sure if it's just the phone I love, or the operating system... Either way, the Droid rocks!

I believe they are talking about the white line at the edge of the tape; where the polish builds up.

I would guess that the "specialist" was comparing the old turtle wax style buffer, and the current style of DA that we use here (PC, Griots, and Flex for example). Mike Phillips made a thread about the other style buffer recently...

Did you really think that people on here where going to say you should leave it? Haha You could have done a full correction, wrapped the car in bubble wrap (that new kind of bubble wrap that will protect you car from swirls), and let the car sit for 2 two years; and people would still say to...

Beautiful car. Even more beautiful after you got your hands on it...

I haven't tried this, but since it sounds like hot water will soften it; why not try a blow dryer (or a heat gun if you have one) to expedite the heating process... You obviously don't want to burn the paint if you're using a heat gun, but with some common sense it might help. Good luck, and...

What is considered "smaller" for a rotary? 4" 5.5" or 6.5"? Excellent analogy! It's pretty much the same fear as the first time I took my car to a road course. I knew once I got the hang of it, I would be fine. I was just worried about the "getting the hang of it" phase... The hood on my V...

I guess if I had to pick between the two it was a :hijacked:. There was no :bash: intended. It was more of a :joking:. I'm sorry if it sounded differently :kiss:. Smiley talk rocks!

This is a very interesting read. It seems that alot of people have very different oppinions, yet feel passionate about their way being correct (I guess this isn't a unique situation though). I definately feel like I have a dilema in this area... The first paint correction machine that I bought...

Hmmm we should start more product bashing threads, so we can get it on the cheap.... Dodo Supernatural Sucks!!!! Every time I use it my car glows in the dark, and smells like sulfur. Please let me know when the supernatural is on sale in a hidden link....:hungry:

Neither wash is good for your paint, but the one with the brushes is going to induce some pretty serious swirls in your paint. The touchless car washes use very strong chemicals to clean your paint, which will strip any wax on your car.

What would be the next step up in aggressiveness from the Plex-All/Lexol? I just ordered the Wolfgang headlight polishing kit. I need to get rid of some scratches on our Seadoo windscreen, and the Plex-All isn't touching them... They look really fine, the pwc is pretty new (less than a year...

I use our family pole barn (I'll have to get pics later). It's a 40'x60' barn with overhead doors on oposite ends, that are offset one way to give us more parking room on the other side. It has a 2 post car lift, a 40'x8' mesanine (<-- that might not be spelled right...) for storage, and a...
