    orange peel solutions?

    I'll try to get a pic once the stupid sun comes out and I can clean the truck. I may be mistaken but it sounds like some of y'all are thinking its the "rock chip" protection that's down on the rocker panel (I know sometimes it may extend up to the lower section of the doors.) This definitely...

    orange peel solutions?

    No its definitely orange peel. its from the beltline down to the lower body line, above the rocker panel. Thanks for the info on the denim pads. I'll look into them.

    orange peel solutions?

    I have a Ram 1500, blue, that I bought last year. It looks as though it has had a partial repaint. From the belt line down on the doors there's some orange peel that is pretty obvious next to the gloss of what appears to be the factory paint on the upper half. Has anyone successfully knocked...

    smoke odor

    Wife just bought a used car and its obvious it was a smoker's vehicle. it's not terrible, but you can still smell it, and someone obviously used deodorizer or something to try to mask the smell. Is it possible to truly get rid of all the odor, maybe steam cleaning it? Thanks

    textured dash question

    In the past I used to just use a damp cloth with a TINY bit of dish soap, and then use interior wipes but my work schedule causes me to spend more time IN my car than ON my car. So while I'm on my break at work I like to dust the interior. But keeping a damp cloth in my car presents it's own...

    textured dash question

    I just bought a 2011 Ford Escape and the dash has a golf ball dimpling texture. Usually I use a makeup brush or swifter duster to dust the dash while I'm waiting in the car for my wife. However it seems that the dust gets stuck in the dimples, almost sticking to the dash. Any suggestions for...

    D114 for clay lube?

    I believe I read that D114 @ 1:256 works well for clay lube, however, I have several spray bottles @ 1:128. wouldn't that work as well? Maybe even better since it has more concentrated D114 in it, therefore more lubricity?

    Electric leaf blower...

    Absolutely! Ever since my friend's dad drilled into a 240v circuit inside the garage wall using an old metal case Craftsman drill, I've had a healthy respect and awareness when it comes to electricity. I swear it knocked him about 6 feet across the garage. (That could be my imagination but...

    Electric leaf blower...

    Does anyone have experience with either the Sun Joe or Greenworks leaf blowers from Lowe's? I'm looking for a medium or heavy duty elec. blower that can do double duty as a leaf blower (duh) and a car dryer. I like the price range, about $90-$100. Or if anyone has experience with a different...

    guitar scratches

    I am trying to sell my 40th Anniv. Fender Strat and I want to get rid of the scratches on the body and pick guard. I'd be doing this by hand (or maybe with the Meg's DA Power System). I know there are several musicians here and I was wondering what has worked for you all for the plastic of the...

    Apps

    A person I do business with uses Genbook. Seems to work really well. I can choose and book specific services; it takes my credit card info to hold my time slot, and then after my appointment he uses a mobile merchant card reader to take my payment right on his iphone. Best Mobile Credit Card...

    What should I do with my MF's...

    When I do any detailing on my truck, I rarely use more than 4-5 MF's plus one or two MF applicator pads (still working by hand). I never have enough dirty towels to do even a small laundry wash. I didn't want any polish or wax residue to dry on the MF's so I tossed them in a small bucket of...

    washing MF question

    I wonder if the OP has towels with tags that aren't sewn in but glued on? If that's the case, the tags need to be peeled off before washing, otherwise the tags come off but the adhesive "sets" into the fabric during the heat of the wash&dry cycle.

    Vinyl lettering removal Part 2

    Some of you may remember my post a few months ago about removing vinyl lettering from my Tundra. Well, I went ahead and removed the lettering from the roof, figuring since no one sees it I could experiment a little. Lots of residue from the edges of the lettering; not sure if it's wax build...
