    That looks like a fun car to take for a spin around The Ring!

    Need a Sealant recommendations?

    I put a coat of Jetseal on my car in Early Nov. and it seems to be holding up well. One thing I like about Jetseal is it also works great on windows.

    How many of you use a MACHINE to WAX your vehicle?

    Tried waxing with a machine for the first time last fall and don't think I'll ever do it by hand again. Easier, faster, more consistent/ better results and you use less product.

    How to detail an Alloway-built Streetrod by Mike Phillips

    Car looks great Mike! I'm curious why you used the PC for the polishing step instead of the Flex.

    LC hydro vs LC waffle pads

    I tried Mike Phillips http://www.autogeekonline.net/forum/how-articles/20135-how-clean-your-foam-pad-fly.html. method and found it worked great on the Hydrotech pads. You can use a fair amount of pressure.

    If you use a torque wrench for anything precise make sure you get it calibrated.

    1st day with my Flex 3401

    Why do you like the Meg's pads better? I bought some the Meguiars pads before I got the Flex and was planning on using them with my GG DA. Then ended up getting some Hybrids after reading how everyone really liked how they worked with the Flex.

    1st day with my Flex 3401

    I'd be scared to near machine like that :eek:. I didn't want to make it sound like the Flex was difficult to use, it isn't, just a small learning curve to get used to it. I'm a newbie when it comes to machine polishing but it only took a couple of section passes to figure it out.

    1st day with my Flex 3401

    :iagree: I used a 3401 for the first time over the weekend and the biggest adjustment for me was making sure I had the polisher flat on the surface. It will try to walk if you don't.

    Football playoffs today! Who you rooting for?

    Add to that GB having to settle for 2 early field goals after being first and goal. GB gave the game to Seattle. Thought the Colts would give the Pats a game. Pats to win the Super Bowl!

    Aqualpel, not worth the hype

    I put a coat of Jetseal on a couple months ago and found it works great on windshields. No need for a windshield only product. I'm glad I saw this, I have a bottle of Powerlock that I'm going to try when I use up the rest of the Jetseal. Think I might try the Powerlock this spring and save the...

    Menzerna pf2500 clumping??

    I tried this method with a light mist of detail spray on a test spot today and it worked great. I was using a Blue Hybrid pad. I've read that the Menzerna products work best using medium high speeds.

    4 oz should be plenty for one car.
