I paid for nav. not much worse than thinking you're king of the world when you're driving through the backwoods of <<NO SIGNAL>>

I cavalierly bumped the edge of the wheel well trim with a white pad and poli-seal. It discolored it slightly either from the abrasion or the product. I am able to make it look good again but it seems like it tries to return to the "I got crap in my plastic" look if I clean it with APC. I...

I picked up a bundle of generics from HD for wheels and exhaust pipes and they were cheap, for sure. Like under 50 cents each cheap. But ... they just don't seem like something I'd want to use on door jambs and my interior I guess.

That's totally cool. I guess if you want it done right, you fly in the VIP.

Is that a blue LC CCS pad? I would have thought white might get you a little more bite without sacrificing finish quality. Also, contrary to what some people post on various forums, poli-seal sucks on plastic trim.

You don't trust the politicians. I don't trust the common man/business. I think I'll let this thread continue without further input.

No disrespect intended here, but before we stand up to the clowns and do anything, we need to educate ourselves about what the reality of the situation is. See my post about the specifics of the law Mike posted about. It does nobody any good to march on Washington with misinformation and...

The North County Times may not even exist anymore. Mike, how old is that article? I did two minutes of research on this subject specific to San Diego and want to put the alarmist fears to rest. San Diego does not restrict ALL car washing in your driveway. The following page summarizes the...

HERE is what I picture when someone says they were Wheelin': And I've only ever see it add dirt and damage to paint. :)

I was goofing around last night before bed and thought I'd see if I had the ingredients to make my own cheap as dirt deicer. While sort of a joke, I believe you could probably fine tune a mixture of simple household (my household) products to achieve the results of the 1Z product. Here's...

SANTA CLAUS NORTH POLE HOH OHO CANADA Dear Santa, For Detail Xmas, I would like a big bottle of GtechniqG1/G2 to get my cars through winter: Gtechniq G1 Clear Vision Smart Glass 100 ml. Tuf Shine Tire ClearCoat: TUF SHINE Tire Clearcoat, tuf shine tire dressing, permanent tire shine...

Revised question: If AG carried something of good quality for a competetive price, would you still go elsewhere?

I'm a hobbyist and don't go through MF towels as fast as some of the guys who do this for a living so I tend to not have a big stack of demoted towels readily available for grunt work. I think it would be awesome if Autogeek were to evaluate what's available and bring us some good quality cheap...

As an audio guy, I'd pass on someone elses random (even "big name") subwoofer boxes. Speakers can be like quoting that detail job without seeing it. You don't know how they've been abused over their life. Besides that, I've never been a fan of Sony speakers.

Funny. My wife is also a political junkie (and why I moved to DC in the first place--I'm a Northern California transplant). But we share political views. I guess that's why she lets me hang out on the forums?

Vegas, I can totally understand a restricted forum life. I frequent a few forums and seem to spend way too much time on them. I think it stems from a guilty pleasure of learning everything so I can do it all. But even if I couldn't, there's always "personal time" and a smartphone! Matt

terry cloth or microfiber towel?

Thanks. I forgot to add that I didn't do windows, trim, or wheels. I had done all of those last weekend along with the opti-seal and optimum car wax layers. Seems to have held up pretty well sitting outside for a week. Yesterday afternoon I added the G1. I've read a few places that people...

No update yet. I will try to get some hand-applied CeriGlass going this afternoon to see if it cuts through the coating.
