So I made a boo boo. My ex gf asked me to wash her car and dropped it off for me to work on. I washed the car and decided that I would coat her hood with PBL paint coating. She was in a hurry and I was too so I polished the hood and took out the scratches on the rest car. Then I used the PBL...

Are you from the Inland Empire visitor? Just wondering. I live in ontario and I saw that ad too. I thought the same thing. I could buy a brand new one for cheaper

Thanks for the replies guys. Now I'm unsure about it. It's an older car but I might keep it for at least another year or two maybe three. I think I might just keep the paint as is instead of paying $1000 or more for new nasty paint

I was wondering how those cheap MACCO paint jobs are? I was thinking of getting my 99 explorer repainted. Not looking for a full on custom paint job but just something to make it look a little better. It has a lot of RIDS and clear coat failure. I always see them advertising paint jobs for...

I was just wondering if the Rupes 75e was to powerful to sand? My paint on my 99 explorer is pretty beat up. I had some clear coat failing on the roof so I decided to try my hand at sanding. Needless to say I sanded to the primer. I used my 75e with a meguiars 3 in sanding backing pad and used...

I just bought a shop-vac at lowes. 12 gallon 6 hp stainless steel for $39.99. Online only I believe. I thought it was a great deal. Free shipping so came out to $43.18 total with tax. Shop Shop-Vac 12-Gallon 6-Peak HP Shop Vacuum at Lowe's

Thanks for the responses guy. I decided to go with DLUX. I don't mind getting them clean. I'd rather do it right the first time then having to go back and do it again anyway. I'm gonna pull the tires anyway so I can put the TUF shine coating on the tires. Brand new tires so no dressings of any...

I was wondering how good this would be for the wheel wells? I'm thinking of getting it. What would be better, the kit or DLUX? I want to keep them looking good with minimal upkeep.

Just ran across this thread. I just purchased the langka kit today. I read this whole post. With all the advancements in gear and tools would you still use a rotary to pull the sanding marks? The reason I ask is because I have all the sanding discs in 3 and 6 inch. I have M100, 101, 105 and UC...

I just wet sanded some frontier headlights today. They're a PIA. At least these ones were. It's not a flat surface to work with. The side of it has some small edges that are easy to sand but hard to buff out. It took me about 3 hours for that set. I am a little anal about it so I took my time to...

I have that same case and color for my iPhone 5. I got it about 4 months ago. I can't believe that I waited so long to get it and now I'm prob gonna upgrade today for the 6 or 6 plus. I used to buy the Speck cases and use the zagg screen covers. Although that worked great and kept my phone...

Lol turned out my dad knows the owner. Went to high school with him. When he owner was rebuilding it they were trying to get him to repainting it orange and black for the high school colors. Now imagine a car like that painted orange and black!

It was spur of the moment thing so all I had was my iPhone. Plus it was pretty crowded to get good shots. If I go tomorrow I'll try to take better pics in the daylight

Hi Geeks, If any of you are around So Cal this weekend you should come check out this car show. It used to be in San Bernardino but they had to move it to Ontario. Just got back from it and fell in love with all the American muscle there. So many cars to see. It's great for the family. My...

I've never entered one so hopefully the first times a charm but here it goes. 1964 Lincoln Contenential convertable. The "Kennedy" car with the suicide doors. Hopefully within 5 years I'll have one.

A lot of people don't have high post counts over there. I remember someone this week or last was selling some things. Didn't have high post count but put that he had high post count on AGO. Couldn't hurt to try.

You can also try to post it on the meguiars forum. Might have a little more success there than on eBay. They have a section for selling.

On the meguiars forum under blast from the past had some info on some of the dates. Found this in mom and dads garage Not to much info but it could help.

I used the 75 e with those pads. Worked really good. The only thing is it ruined the red wool pad that comes with the kit. I think that those pads were just not designed for that polisher. The pads got really hot and the wool flew off the pad. The heat was to much for the adhesive on those pads...

Dlux for taillight lenses? I never heard that. I was under the impression that it was for trim and other plastics. Huh. You learn something new everyday on this site
