    Polishing/compounding powder coated wheels

    The whole wheel is powder coated. The wheels originally had a lip insert that squeaked like crazy so I removed them and then had them sand blast and prep the rims for clear coat. They are not clearcoated, and the rims did not have any machine marks on the lip they came to me smooth as glass. I...

    Polishing/compounding powder coated wheels

    I have some black powder coated wheels that have a 3" deep lip on the rears and about an 1.5" lip on the front. It looks like I almost have swirls in the lips but they are pretty much straight fine lines that run clear around the lip. Do you think it is possible to buff or polish them out...

    Proper Pressure Washer set up with Foam Cannon

    I love my Troy-Bilt gas 3k Pressure washer with the Honda engine. It rocks and I didn't need a single extra adapter to make the MTM work, with the quick release end it comes with the MTM just snapped in place and away I went foaming!!

    MTM Hydro Foamer Mini Review

    I went with a 3k PSI Troy-Bilt Gas Pressure Washer with the Honda engine and the MTM plugs right onto the end of the wand no extra crap needed. The washer came with I think 6 different tips (I use the 40 degree tip for rinsing the car off), starts right up and puts out SERIOUS FOAM!!!! I will...

    What is proper method for cleaning pads while detailing?

    I always thought it was a bad idea to spin them without a load on them. I had thought about spin drying before, but I may just get an adapter and mounting plate and stick it in the drill and use that to dry

    What is proper method for cleaning pads while detailing?

    I am wondering what is the best method to keep a pad at its optimal performance while polishing a car. I am using LC CCS Pads and a Megs DA Right now I use Ultimate Compound, SwirlX and a couple Megs polishes. But I am going to be trying the Chemical Guys v34, v36, v38 polishes. Thanks, Chris

    Gasoline on paint

    Just shake the nozzle a couple times to get those last few drips out, but if shake it more than twice you are playing with it :) What I do is I always grab a paper towel at the gas station and just hold it underneath the nozzle as I remove it. But if I do get gas on the paint I usually have a...

    Drying your car...leaf blower style!

    I tried my leaf blower a few times and it was just so unwieldy and I broke down and got me a Master Blaster, I know it is a heck of a lot more, but it has so been worth it!

    2013 Bos 302

    I have a 2011 Kona Blue 5.0 and I absolutely LOVE that car and the power. Mine is stock except for Koni STRt struts and shocks with Steeda Ultra-Lite springs and Rooush exhaust. It is amazing how much a difference lowering the car about 1.5" makes and the sound of that exhaust is amazing. And...
