    Thank You PBMA and Drivers Seat

    I've been to the Driver's Seat in Boca Raton a couple of times. It's a nice store and I wish we had something like it in MA (but I realize it would probably go out of business almost instantly here). DS does carry a lot of what is sold on the AG website, but not everything. I asked them once...

    Hello from Boston

    Hey Bruce! Welcome to AG from a fellow New Englander. How did you like the 60*F day we had yesterday? Do you live in Boston or outside of the city?

    Zymol Waxes

    I hear you. I think I'm done trying new waxes for a little while. I've found a wax that pretty much delivers everything that I'm looking for.

    Zymol Waxes

    Fantasy? That one must be LONG cancelled. I've been a Zymol user for at least 10 years and I've never heard of it.

    Freezing Products

    I live in New England and have not had a problem with items freezing during shipping. It helps if you don't leave them outside all day when they arrive on a really cold day.

    porter cable no go

    I've never ever used a washer with my PC and the pad spins fine.

    porter cable no go

    As others have stated the motor of the PC does not cause the spinning of the pad. The motor does cause the pad to orbit and since the pad is mounted on a free rotating shaft the pad will rotate as a by product of the orbiting motion. As you have found out it doesn't take much downward pressure...

    Opinions on Winter Detail

    I don't polish my car during the winter. With all the salt, dirt, etc. pummeling the finish most of the winter it's very likely to get scratched up again quickly.

    Mercedes Detail Tomorrow

    What model year is the car? More recently made M-B cars are painted with cerami-clear which is much harder than a traditional clear coat.

    porter cable noise?

    :whs: I have no idea what this washer is that people are referring to. I have no washer and my PC (until I traded it in for a Flex) worked fine without it and I had no problem getting the wrench in there to change the backing plate.

    My shmitts are doing it again!

    I have a white/yellow ShMItt that I bought when they were originally released at least a year ago. It has close to 100 washes under its belt and looks and performs like new except for a couple of gashes in the face.

    ** Some pics of my Astra with Concours **

    Dollar for dollar it's certainly hard to beat Souveran. Also, :iagree: 100% that most people will not notice the difference. In fact, most people can't tell the difference between Souveran and Meguiar's Cleaner Wax on a properly prepped car. I however believe that I can tell the difference...

    ** Some pics of my Astra with Concours **

    This is the first time I've seen the words Zymol HD-Cleanse and "easy" in the same sentence. :D

    Do you mean a "wish list?" I think there was an earlier thread requesting this.

    Thinking about 2008 Corvette

    I just want to throw in my 2 cents about the '08 Vette. First, I want to say the C5 was a HUGE step up from the C4 and the C6 was a big step over that. The only complaint I ever had with the C6 was that I felt the interior material quality was still pretty cheap. I saw the '08 a couple weeks...

    Flex 3401- how safe is it?

    You can't compare the two speed wise because one rotates and the other rotates and orbits. Rotations are measured in RPM (Flex tops out at 480 RPM whereas many use their rotaries at over 1,000 RPM). The Flex also orbits (tops out at 9,600 OPM whereas tops for the PC is 6,000 OPM). Because the...

    Detailed: 2005 Mercedes E55 AMG

    Wow! Who knew such a great looking car was under all that grime. Great job.

    DP Pad Cleaner....

    I've been using this stuff for a while it's GREAT. I also use it to pre-soak towels that are REALLY dirty before throwing them in the washer.
