    I detailed the GTO this last week...pics inside

    Nice GTO, very clean. I saw the Vauxhaull (sp?) VX-R on top gear the other day and would love those bumper covers on a GTO. But yours is by far the best I've seen, great job.

    Camaro - V6 vs. V8, not sure what to do.

    Buy a supercharger. That way your insurance is less, plus you have the V8 power. Trading up to a V8 seems like an expensive proposition.

    Eagle 1 tire swipes changed

    Yeah I bought some of those and the two types of foam came apart after one wash. I'll have to try the fingernail brush, seems like all the new tires I come across have the little groves on the sidewall, PITA to get evenly distributed (currently spray, let dwell, then use a dedicated MF cloth to...

    Megs APC vs. Poorboy's APC

    I've got a gallon of megs, it's great stuff and not really expensive. I use it on a lot of surfaces, and I haven't had any issues yet.

    2001 Infiniti G35: a new lease on life

    Nice save, sounds like the owner was very impressed. Looks great.

    05 f150 seats dirty??

    You can if you want, usually I vac before, sometime the shop vac pulls out a little more dampness, but with this method they really aren't that wet. If it's really soiled, the shop vac will help pick up any dislodged dirt. So up to you and the seat condition.

    05 f150 seats dirty??

    Had the same problem with my Pontiac Vibe's seats. Trick I found was to hit it with some APC (if there are dirt stains) then take a cloth soaked in water and rung out (so it's wet, but not dripping), then wipe down the area. Rinse the cloth frequently. That way you end up with an even seat...

    qd or rinseless carwash for clay lube

    I use Megs Last Touch diluted 1:1 with water. Works great and is also cheap.

    Meguiar's Sample size

    I agree as I've bought the samples from the 'other site' and have ended up buying full gallon sizes afterwards since I liked them so much (super degreaser, APC+ and Last Touch).

    megs d151

    Nope, works good as a wax. I did my Silver Vibe with it, lasted about 2 months or so with good beading.

    Have you cleaned a dirty car?

    I get a kick out of this comment as I've done a couple cars where they've said this. I find it funny someone would buy a car that wasn't that clean??? I agree though, my vehicles are the only ones that look like the vids, but most people aren't as picky about their vehicles either (so I get...

    A legitimate question!

    IMHO nothing beats the pressure washer for getting all the polish dust out of the crevices, cracks. Saves time when I'm doing an all day detail as water pressure at my house isn't that great. For normal washes, I don't bother as my garage sucks and only has one outlet, so it's a pain to setup...

    Dried Concrete removal???

    So my co-worker just bought a used Tahoe. He's not impressed with the exterior, but couldn't pass up the price. Eventually he's going to bring it to me and we are going to polish it, but in the mean time he said on the fenders it looks like there is dried concrete on there. He picked it off...

    I love when an employee quits with out notice!!!

    I agree, I left and gave 3 weeks notice to teach as much as I could to the next guy. I thought it was the right thing to do. I expect the same from my guys (or gals) at my new position.

    Take a look at this

    Yeah no worries, I did my truck and the wife was like 'damn look at the orange peel'. You couldn't notice it before, but now with no swirls it sticks out. Oh well, looks good from 5 ft away : )

    Autogeek visits Griots Garage

    Hey I live in Indy, I'll have to look them up. If they have a show I'll be there, plus if my polisher ever has issues I know where to bring it. Great photos.

    Swirls/Holograms out Scratches in!

    Don't you just love finding those after polishing? I did an Accord Coupe (black) and found some nasty scratches hiding under the swirls.

    How long should it take for one person....

    All depends on what they want again. Do they want all the swirls removed or just a shiny car? I've done both, full interior with a 1 step polish, full exterior takes about 8-10 hours depending on the size of the car. On the other hand my buddy's accord took 12hours just on the paint (it was a...

    Can you Believe this is a Hyundai

    That v-6 comparo was dumb, the Genesis cost as much a 5.0 Mustang (don't get me wrong, I like the Gensis coupe a lot, but it won't hold a candle to a v-8 mustang). If they come out with the Sonata wagon here, that'll definately be a car I'd look at getting (I have a thing for wagons). I'd take...
