    Review my process

    5.5" Pads are all I have, I have already forgot most of what I learned but I think I remember reading the PC didn't quite have the guts to do any major cutting with bigger pads. Thanks for the tip on the clay lube, I will probably order some ONR with the reviews it has here and it seems like in...

    Review my process

    Spring detail is coming up after a rough WI winter. I'm still really new to detailing and after reading thousands of threads I feel like I have a good plan but just want to double check to make sure I'm doing it right and not leaving anything out. I will be detailing my GF's 2007 Saturn Aura...

    First AG order has arrived

    I believe the orange pads are ones that will fit the cyclone (4") but they will be used on the PC. One of the starter kits here at AG include all of those pads shown. Planning on getting a bunch of 5.5" pads and using the 4" to work on my motorcycle. I haven't even used any of these things yet...

    First AG order has arrived

    Will do. Posted a few years back when I was trying to clean up my motorcycle and kind of forgot about it since. Ended up repainting the bike anyway.

    First Order

    After spending about 10 hours on AG (at work so at least I'm getting paid) today I have placed my order, using a mix of the recommendations here and what my eyes and pocket book think will work. Like I said before I don't know much about the premium detailing products but hope to get into this a...

The kit has the PCXP, 5 pads of your choice, 2 free red pads, 2 microfiber towels and the XMT pad cleaner and conditioner. I have now spent all day on AG and after reading many of the show n shine posts it seems like...

    First Order

    Starting to work on my first AG order and just wanted to run things by everyone and make sure I will have a good group of products that will work well and double check the order I should use them. I have always enjoyed detailing my personal vehicles but have never really given them the best that...

    Gonna Order One...

    I agree with above. If you're not a detail freak then in the end it's easier and won't matter to you that you went through the car wash anyway. I used to do that because I didn't have an outdoor water source at home.

Try a google search for it otherwise I'll look around for a link. Edit: here ya go Microsoft PowerToys for Windows XP the...

    Liquid Glass?

    Thanks for the quick replies. What would be a good OTC polish I could use for step 2 then? The truck is a light tan if it helps. Also I have a cheap buffer I got as a gift aswell. Which applications or removals would be best done with the buffer and which by hand? Also for anyone that does...

    Abbreviations?

    Polishing Windows

    I've been a lurker for some time now but finally plan on doing a nice detail on my truck this weekend. 97 GMC sierra Z71. It's been used as a truck so I don't plan on it being perfect but want it as nice as it can be. I notice every time I clean my windows there's some waterspots that are barely...
