    Security/Web cameras

    You are correct. You simply need a power source (outlet) and a wireless signal. These cameras do not have on-board storage. However, they send 15 seconds of images to your email for every motion in detects. Additionally, you can log into the camera from your phone and watch the video. If you...

    spotting appearing under Opti-coat?

    This exact same thing happened to me. However, prep was at fault and not Opti Coat.

After speaking with Chris, I had to re-polish the whole vehicle, prep, and re apply Opti...

    Orange peel

    I am not sure what the truth really is. I was just told by a person who has painted cars for 20+ years that long ago you could paint a car with little to no orange peel if the painter was skilled. However with newer paints even the most skilled will still get orange peel due to new paint...

    Orange peel

    Based upon what I understand the increase in orange peel is due VOC (Volatile Organic Compound) restrictions in automobile paints. With higher VOC's the paint lays flatter and the solvents evaporate faster which produces a better paint job.

    2012 Jeep Grand Cherokee Orange Peel

    Hi Don, I have the exact same vehicle! However, what is interesting is that I was actually impressed with the overall paint job and lack of orange peel in my Jeep. I wonder if it could be different due to paint color. Mine is the Grey Metallic. What color is your Jeep? Awesome vehicle though...

    Tornador and leather

    I use my tornador all of the time for leather and it works great. I either use Meguiars APC or OPC at 3:1 depending on how dirty the leather is and the color. As always, do a test spot.

    Extractor vs Tornador

    I run an 8 gallon tank but my compressor is gas powered and puts out 12 CFM at 100 PSI. As long as your compressor puts out 6 CFM at 90 PSI you should be in good shape. This is at least how I understand it.

    Tornado - yay or nay?!?!?

    I for one would be scared to death to spray anything inside the car, for 2 reasons: 1- infiltrations in places you dont want it, it could damage electronics. 2- overspray on the interior glass, which you will have a hell of a time cleaning afterwards... And its not because youre spraying...
