    Pinnacle XMT Finishing Glaze....watery...

    As the title says, I got some Pinnacle XMT Finishing Glaze. It looks purple. I bought it on the Memorial Day sale, and finally got around to using it. When i opened it, it came out real watery. Like well thinned paint. I shook the hell out of it, but still the same results. I even went so...

    Waxing a White Car......

    Yeah...I found out that applying by hand was the best way. Using a DA wasn't going to work.

    2015 Tahoe LTZ with Pics

    I saw a 2011 Camaro today at work. The paint job was horrible.......nothing but orange peel. I can't believe people think paint looks good on a new vehicle. My 2002 Camry that I painted in my garage looked better than the Camaro. I did a full color correction on my managers F-250 diesel.....and...

    DA Polisher

    I introduced my brother to some high end wax when he leased a new 2014 Audi A4. As a gift, I bought him some pinnacle souveran and a boat load of micro fiber towels and applicators. He asked me where I got the wax from, and I told him about this website. A few weeks later, he called and asked...

    Excited about next order from AG

    Also, fg4000 works like a $5 hooker on 2-for-1 night. She can go a long time. I work fg4000 for about 2-3 minutes on a setting of 3-4 on a da, and it leaves a super polished surface. You'll like Menzerna polishes.

    Time to talk about pricing...

    Man, at those prices, i'm willing to drive from Houston, Tx to where ever you are, and have you do a full detail on a 2001 Honda Civic that I bought. It'll save me the time from having to do a FULL correction on the extremly neglected paint ( RIDS out the a$$ ) and the interior. Oh, by the...

    Degreasing engines

    Try PURPLE POWER. Dillute it, as full power will leave streaks on the paint. It's a degreaser, and I use it at the shop i work at when one of the dumb General Service kids sprays oil all over the engine bay when doing an oil change.

    Restored Headlights?

    The plastic nubs are used to align the beam of the light. I've been an automotive tech for 16 years, and the last time I saw such a machine was back in 1995 at a Ford dealership. You had a book that gave you the measurements for the height of the focusing mirror, then you had to move the car or...

    trading my car in... how far should I go?

    Before you trade it in....do one last donut...one last cookie, one last burn out. Do it for God....do it for your country.....do it for America!! Nothing says "I love America" more than buring rubber and acting reckless.
