Nice work as always and love how the performance blue paint shines. I have to say I'm partial to that color as I have a Raptor on order in this same color. Keep up the good work!

How many small stones/pebbles were stuck in the gap between the rocker panel and fender/door right in front of the rear wheel (Just below the silver GM badge)? I had an 09 Z06 and it always amazed me how many little pebbles would be stuck in there, lol. Nice job!

Thanks for all your help over the years and wish you luck

Good job Mike! The truck came out very good and I'm sure you put a lot of work into all that paint real estate. I've safe guarded our newest engine and won't let anyone wash it, and I've managed to win a few parade trophies for best custom pumper with it. From a detailers perspective, it's a...

The directions on the bottle say to spray it to a cool panel. Not sure what happens when you spray to a warm/hot panel other than maybe smearing and not getting good coverage. I was wondering what the advantages of this were over using Fusion paste wax as well. After using it this weekend, I...

Can't go to a fire call with a dirty helmet. But, I think in order to win this contest you need to buff something unique This one is just "utterly" ridiculous My wife wanted to buff the dog

My MasterBlaster came with a wall mount which Marc08EX posted a link to. It's basically a plate you screw to a wall that hooks on to the front wheels. To remove the vacuum from the wall you just lift up and it comes off the bracket. This is how I mounted mine:

I've done some general detailing on a couple trucks on my fire department to get ready for parades. There is a lot of time involved in these big trucks and usually a lot of diamondplate/chrome as well. I would definitely charge by the hour to start off since it's hard to judge how long it will...

Love these older air cooled Porsches. You brought this car back to its former glory and than some. Nice Job!

Here is some pictures of what I was left with after using the eraser wheel and paint thinner: I than used a clay bar on the door before polishing and this was just after 1 door: I used my Flex with a Yellow CCS pad and WG Uber Compound followed by a white CCS pad and WG Swirl Remover. I...

I worked on the truck last night and was able to remove the gold leaf and black paint. I started with paint thinner on a microfiber cloth. This worked great for the black paint surrounding the gold leaf and did work a little bit on the gold leaf. The paint thinner after working it for a little...

Thanks for the reply. From doing some searching I am going to start with some paint thinner to try and remove the black painted shadow around the "1". I also bought the 3M eraser wheel to tackle the gold leaf if the thinner does nothing to it. I'll post my results.

Hi All, I was asked by my fire department to remove the numbers off a 1995 E-One Fire engine because we are renumbering a few of the engines.. I may have more to do depending on how this goes. The number is gold leaf with a black single stage paint around it. I currently do not know if the...

The new weapon has finally arrived. Just got my Flex 3401 to add to my GG6 and GG3. Looking to step up my game this year and post more in the show and shine.

Figured I would add to the corvette posts here: Washed on Saturday and test fit the front splitter. Removed the splitter and applying Xpel to it for protection. Car was detailed last year with Wolfgang products and currently has WGDGS for an lsp.

Thanks for all the input. I was think the film route and did not know about Xpel ultimate. I did have some tinted headlight film from them I used 5 years ago and was happy with it. Now I have to find an installer in CT and it looks like the closest one is about an hour away. I'll post pics...

Hi all, I just purchased carbon fiber side skirts for my Z06 and they weren't the cheapest things either. I was wondering what the best way to protect them from rocks and what the general care for them is. They appear to have a gel/clear coat on them. Should I have a clear film (3M Brand)...
