    What did you do today non-detailing related?

    Have trouble keeping my new 572 BBC cool. Just upped the cfm game by 1400 more cfm's going from a 16" single Spal fan to 2 - 12" Spal units and a custom shroud from C&R Racing. Saw the C&R box when I pulled up the driveway and was like a little kid at X-mas lol. Wish me luck Sent from my...

    Getting serious now. Roll cage install on the SS

    Looks good! I had a 8 point for my 68 that I welded in myself. When I got to the shoulder bar at the doors and mocked it up, I couldn't go through with it as mine is a street/strip/showcar. I will be more than thrilled when I get a chance to get it to the track and get black flagged:dblthumb2:

    Interior : Milk Bomb

    Try Nature's Miracle. You can get it at a pet store. If that can get mouse urine smell out of my '68 Camaro, I'm sure it can take care of a little milk. Just do a test section 1st to make sure it will not stain.

    What causes black paint to look "gray" in sunlight?

    Yeah I see that brownish tinge too at certain intervals but this was different. Actually looked as though in my diminished capacity about detailing, that I used too rough of a pad and caused hazing, but through the led inspection light it was crystal clear. My truck has that brown tinge...

    What causes black paint to look "gray" in sunlight?

    One other thing that I realized after reading about detailing that I missed and it could have been that big oops. I never wiped it down after polishing to remove the oils. Never saw that step until now. Both the car and truck missed this step. Could that have something to do with it as well?

    What causes black paint to look "gray" in sunlight?

    Under the Led lighting in my garage both my truck and car looked phenomenal until I pulled them out into the sun. I noticed they both had a grayish look. And just like that old Metallica song, it will "Fade to Black" during the next 12 hours or so. Wondering if that is the result of a cool...
