    What did you do today, in regards to detailing?

    I know it's AMG - which is not AM. AMG makes terrific stuff, *especially* their motors, but it's kind of tough to have swagger with your awesome high-end British sports car with its _German_ motor. Porsche designs and manufactures its own motors for the 911. The more a marque just assembles...

    What did you do today, in regards to detailing?

    Pretty to look at but engineering-wise I'd take the 911 all day (gotta have a stick and not a fan of marques using other company's motors vs in-house engineering). Styling-wise, though, the people at AM do hit home runs.

    SEMA 2024

    So interested in hearing more about the Griot's glass coating once it's out in the wild. On the new bucket, though . . . 70 bucks for a frickin' bucket??? Geez, my old man would rise out of his grave and kick my butt up and down the street for even thinking about spending $70 on a bucket. WTH?

    Rinseless Washes - 2022

    I don't know how folks watch any of these things. I watch videos to learn a specific thing or follow a how-to that somebody made on installing a whatsis onto a whatchamajig (watched quite a few on removing all the trim in my Bronco's cargo area to swap out the subwoofer, for example) but have...

    Which area do you tend to overlook?

    I wonder if Alfa guys over look this when they are looking over their Alfa's . . .

    DFB's Garage

    OK, makes sense; perhaps odd labeling on their point as that was why I was asking - seeing 2 bottles both with labels describing them as clay lube. I've seen iron remover used as lube as well but it was also on what was a very clean car and the "clay" was one of TRC's Ultra Decontamination Clay...

    DFB's Garage

    Curious about the two different bottles of Clay lube. Do they mate up with specific/different claying products or different types of areas or . . .? Just never seen that level of "detail" (OK, minor pun intended) for claying.

    what's your weather currently like?

    Rather unseasonably warm here. Looks to be a nice night for the trick or treaters which should be a pleasant change as it so frequently is cold and wet for them.

    Wasn't she on Baywatch for part of one season? :ROFLMAO:

    What did you do today, in regards to detailing?

    Either there was a sale on the letter "z" or somebody was trying to bluff their way into a maximum Scrabble word score?

    Wait, don't spoil the ending for me, I might want to place a bet! :ROFLMAO:

    What did you do today non-detailing related?

    Too much light pollution here, would have to make a heck of a drive to see it. I'll catch it next time. :whistle:

    Bug Removal

    In either case *oil* is being applied to the surface, which IMO is not a real good idea. While oil may make it easier to remove things like bugs that impact the surface in the interim it's also going to contribute to retaining dirt, dust, etc. and generally making the surface grimy. Now if...

    Are you saying that in Oz it's common practice for the dealers to dispose of the window stickers after the sale? That's definitely not the norm here in the states. Congrats on finally getting your ride delivered!

    What did you do today non-detailing related?

    I have a '99 Corvette ("C5" generation) and the standard mid-car jacking point will deform and possibly damage the bodywork as it partially wraps the frame rails there so Chevy helpfully sells some jacking pucks. There's a slot in the frame rail and the pucks have a music-hook kind of thing...

    Autopia

    I can do that with two off-the-shelf utilities - the never patented Mark 1 IEBEYEBALL and IDCAMS, LOL. Browse the file to find the "22" (or "32", I guess for those that still do savings accounts) record in question and then input to an IDCAMS to REPRO the contents with a SKIP for the number of...

    Bug Removal

    I've only ever heard of Poorboy's here. Not intended to be any definitive statement as to their impact/presence in the market, merely a data point. As my dad used to joke when he'd say about a singer/celebrity or something "Never heard of him/her, but I'm sure they never heard of me either!". ;)

    What did you do today, in regards to detailing?

    In my entire life I know my father never once washed any vehicle of mine. I'm pretty sure the point of having children was so that WE could wash HIS stuff (and mow and shovel and . . .).
