    HDTV Purchase advice needed

    1 LCD TV, 1 LCD Monitor, 1 DLP TV, 1 Phone (LCD screen went bad). I'm an electronics tech so I need no explanation & I don't buy crap. I avoid Samsung products now like the plague.

    HDTV Purchase advice needed

    4 out of 5 Samsung products I've purchased since 2005 have failed. Mostly out of warranty. I don't have any experience with Visio but would give them a try, if I was inclined to buy at a brick & mortar. The best deals on TVs right now are the Mitsubishi DLPs via internet. As low as $800 for...

    I have the Griots 3" & 6" ROP as well as a couple of LC pads. They're all the same thread.

    Painting brake calipers

    Just about any paint will work. I used the cheapest spray paint they had at WalMart when I did mine 5 years ago. They still look good!

    Want some opinions... Please!

    Dude, don't listen to the haters. There's a tight assed conservative clique round here. I quit posting. I liked your videos. I expecially liked your second video. Sex does sell in the auto industry. Ask dinosaur Linda Vaughn. I respect what you're doing and think this ought to be the...

    Buggy with the syringe on top

    I'm most assuredly not a detailing pro. But, being the guy with the new random orbital, I find myself in the unenvyable position of the official extended family car cleaner. WTF, I'm retired with nothing better to do. Now throw in 3 variables, very hot summer and worst Luv Bug season in memory...

    Paint Transfer Question

    If ya do screw up the trim there's always this. Forever Black restores a dark, black, finish on sun-faded bumpers and body moldings. Forever Black permanently dyes black plastic, rubber and vinyl. Just don't use the supplied applicator. Use a q-tip or foam brush instead.

    Feedback on Business Cards & Website

    Most things look fine to me. The pics on the photo page look ok also, but the pic of the TBird on the home page is slightly squashed. The aspect ratio is wrong and it carries over to all the other pages. I use a wide screen monitor.

    Headlight Restoration- Attempted, need help

    try using water instead of clay lube. The clay lube may be too slick. Also, the layering you see is prolly the factory UV protectant layer coming off. I did an 05 Hyundai that was so bad it needed 400 grit to start with. I ended the sanding process with 3000 grit then Menzerna SIP P083 and...

    Advice prior to ordering

    I started out with Griots products and have since changed over to other folks stuff. In particular, I don't like Griots polish. I can't speak about their wax or sealant cuz I never used any. Also, you might want to consider going with Lake Country 5.5" pads. Of course, you'll need a new...

    Have to take the Camaro in for service, need advice.

    Based on my personal experience you have a 50/50 chance your instructions will be followed. I had a custom dyno tune on my 05 GTO and left instructions to the service writer not to reprogram the computer and I left a note on the steering wheel also to not reprogram the computer. Need I say...

    Stealth Car

    I'm from the "chrome don't go" school. Anyway, I've often contemplated painting a car flat or semi flat black. My question is this. How does a person preserve and protect the paint on a flat finished car? Especially, given that flat finishes are typically softer than gloss finishes. I...

    If you were limited to one company...

    Meguiars has the advantage of only being an auto parts store away. If ya plan ahead you can order anything you want from AG. .....But, If you're not a pro and get a project sprung on ya and you're short handed, Megs has it's advantages. Mothers is also available at most parts stores.

    Orbital Overruns into Rubber

    Noob here, (lurking for weeks) Before I get flamed for using Griot's stuff. I didn't find AG until after I ordered the stuff I needed from Griots. Next time I'll know better. Anyway, my question is this. What's the best way to get the Griot's #2 & #3 polish off of the rubber stuff I've...
