    Any Major Differences b/t these hybrid coatings?

    The surface area (minus the bottom since we don't want to coat that) of a 20 foot shipping container is roughly 600 square feet. a 2 micron film over that area is about 115 millilitres (cc) or just under 4 fluid oz. Plus whatever evaporates upon application. No idea what the solvent ratio is...

    optimum goodies for 2012 sema?

    Was hoping to see the glass coating announcement sometime last week with a real, tangible product photo or something. I can't apply a rumor to my windows so I had to order the Gtechniq. When are the new products going to be announced officially?

    What if you were to take a thin blade and slice around the perimeter of the inside opening to make a cylinder of wax that COULD come out through the top? Then when you put it back in the can, wrap some plastic wrap around the wax cylinder and slide it back in. EZ out next time. And while...

    Re Frankenstorm Sandy

    I still find it shocking that the center of this storm passed almost over my head yet we came away virtually unscathed and folks up in NY and NJ are still battling the elements. I absolutely respect the people who are going out of their way to get their hands dirty and help those folks out...

    Pre-SEMA Set Up

    Hey AG guys and gals, make sure you guys get some breakfast at Hash House A Go Go one day. It's behind the Imperial Palace on the strip. It is to die for. In some cases, literally. You'll see what I mean when you eat there! Also if you like Thai food, the Lotus of Siam is phenomenal. It's...

    leave a dirt covered car from storm

    hose it down while it's still wet out to get the chunky stuff and leaves off, then when the clouds part this weekend, give it a nice wash with some shampoo or maybe a rinseless if you think it's adequate.

    Heard something interesting during a hospital tour.

    babies come with an LSP pre-installed. It's a waxy substance called vernix and I'm not sure if it can be buffed to a shine. I would try microfiber over lambswool...

    Re Frankenstorm Sandy

    I thought the concern was more the size and flooding more than the wind force. I know our biggest concern here in the DC Metro area is supersaturated ground and trees tipping over on stuff. Doesn't take much to knock a tree down when mud is the only thing anchoring it. Thankfully all the...
