Woohooo. I love Saturns. Not many out there that people care to have polished. I myself am an owner of the original 91 SL2. It is funny how they notice my and ask me what kind of car it is. I just tell them, "I've got an original plastic Saturn." The metallic red color really gets a lot of...

Which part of Thailand were you from originally? I was born in the California though.

Hey welcome to AG! Where in Thailand are you? I'm currently starting a small operation in Bangkok, Thailand. Other 1/2 of my business is back in California. Let me know where you are, maybe we can meet up if you are in Bangkok. I'm doing work over in the Pathum Thani area at Lum Luk Ka...

I've been using it regularly on my details this past four months with no problems at all. A lifetime warranty is what sold me on it. It was a perfect machine for me since I'm not a full time detailer and I couldn't afford those industrial steamers which cost way more. So far so good for me.

Hey there my AG friends. I have a question regarding the use of an IPA wipedown on Cquartz after a rinseless wash. I have coated my dad's Mercedes-Benz E320 with regular Cquartz and have been mostly washing it with ONR. I know it leaves behind gloss enhancers which do streak on black paint...

I'm gonna say 15 miles.

Wow, that was an awesome job. You said it was previously polished out by you in the past. Going with FG400, did you have to measure the paint that was left on there? Also, roughly, does it cut the same as Meg's Ultimate Compound? I'm surprised that FG400 finishes out so well even with an...

Thank you for all of your help with the tips and tricks Mike. I finally found out what I did wrong. I was using the little microfiber suede towel (applicator) to try and wipe off the residue. FAIL!!! I applied with the cotton makeup applicators and unfortunately, it scratched the paint in...

Thank you for your advice Mike. I went back and tried the trunk deck and was having trouble wiping off the residue still. I did it when it was warm in this afternoon and waited a half hour to let it flash. Wiped off with a short loop microfiber towel and still had an oily residue that...

Hey Mike, Question for you. Have you guys worked on a car in the studio and applied CarPro Cquartz? I've seen your video about applying GTechniq on a red Mustang. I was wondering what your experiences have been regarding the consumer version of it. I have gotten a lot of tips and tricks...

You can take a look at my Facebook page https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.10152025034555298.905658.537930297&type=1&l=f185dad223 Now again, it really depends on how bad it is. Also, it won't be a perfect fix as there is almost no way to make it perfectly flat without taking off too...

I've done a few scratch repairs on my Saturn before. I usually top it off with clear coat touch up as well to make it look as close to the original paint as I can. I'm over in Hercules. Sorry to see the car got keyed like that.

*bump*

Hey everyone, I am working on a 1999 Mazda Miata MX-5 with single stage white paint. The car was covered with tree sap and removing them was a paint in the butt. I had to pull out the steamer to melt each little dot and then wipe away the residue with some IPA. Now the hood which was...

Wow, I think you guys are right near the on ramp and the Caldwell Banker place right? I drove by there once but didn't know there was a detail shop there. I went to eat at the Orinda Theater Square at Table 24.

Welcome from Hercules, Cali. I'm up in the Bay Area.

I used the Daytona wheel brush to do the scrubbing on the barrels. I was just hoping to find a way to make them look good without spending way too much time on it since it wasn't a top dollar detail. I guess I can't expect too much since the wheels haven't been cleaned since it came out of the...

Hey there fellow Geeks, I wanted to ask if any of you have suggestions for me on removing brake dust buildup and dirt on some old factory wheels on a 2001 VW Passat. I tried using ECO Touch Wheel Cleaner and it did a fairly good job at removing grime on the face of the wheels. The barrels is...

I always turn some Trance / Euro Pop tunes in the garage when I detail. Also classic rock, 98.5 KFOX in the Bay Area part of California. I got a couple of new CD's which have been out for a couple of years now. Artist named Haley - All This Love album Haley- This is how it goes (official...

After the first few words, I saw where that was going and started to LoL! :haha: I love people on AG here.
