    2008 G5 GT My first Detail

    Well I since I finally got my order last week, this weekend I spent around 13 hours on my car, a BLACK 2008 Pontiac G5 GT. Now to preface this, I believe that, Saturday morning when I got up to start, the temperature was ~30F and the first spray I started on my car to get the initial frost/ice...

    This look like a good process chart?

    No problem. I hate it when people are ambiguous over things. I have no problem specifying when need be. It helps everyone in the end.

    Rsurfer, next time I buy things, the 85RD or 87MC will be my next purchase. A glaze will make things look that much better. Though it looks like the Paintwork Polish Enhancer may help a bit on that end. We will see. And yes, my wife left me her camera.

    I am like a kid waiting on Christmas. First light tomorrow I am gonna start on my car. Wife is out of town and I have the day free. I even moved boxes out of the garage so I can use WG DGPS 3.0 and let it cure overnight out of the dew. Then I will hit it with Fuzion the next morning and...

    That is the plan. 106 with white I think is a good starting point. Gray is a bit too soft to start? Or might I be surprised?

    Only 25 containers being made

    I know we are all making fun of this, but if I had unlimited money, I would try it. Why not? See if it really is all that special. Of course I am also crazy like that.

    newb vs. noob

    In a lot of the intro threads and a lot of the question threads, most people start with "I am a noob". That bothers me since I am a computer geek. The poster is unknowingly insulting himself.

    newb vs. noob

    As a computer geek, this distinction is important to me. And the misuse of these 2 terms bother me. Everyone here who is new to detailing is a "newbie" or shortened to newb. Being a newb is NOT a bad thing. It just means you are new, starting out and have questions. Being a noob (or as...

    MF Sticker Residue

    I just searched and couldn't find an answer to this. But I just got my AG order and it came with some MF towels (2 indigo, and 4 Jr). I pulled the stickers off and 1 or 2 left some sticker residue behind. What should I use to get the residue off? Just wash all the towels normally in...
