    Probably the coolest detailing video I've seen

    Big fan of the music choice for the second video. I loved Inception!

    Griots DA

    I had the same problem with two different griots machines. The same happened right in the middle of me correcting my car (still not done by the way). I never got any reason behind it. I have decided to cut my losses and get a flex eventually.

    2nd Griots Polisher Failure!?

    Thanks Bobby! I didn't think of the cord being a possible issue until someone mentioned it. Looks like it shouldn't have been based on the gauge of the polisher itself. I spoke with Autogeek today and told them that I didn't want another griots machine and I preferred a store credit. They...

    2nd Griots Polisher Failure!?

    The first ROP was used at a different house than the one that quit today. So I would think that electrical issues related to the houses could be ruled out. I really wanted this one to work since I originally thought this ROP was well built. It's a shame really. I did not use an extension...

    2nd Griots Polisher Failure!?

    While polishing my car yesterday my second griots polisher quit on me. It wasn't hot. I wasn't using too much pressure. All proper technique and even taking breaks in between sections to let the machine rest as well as myself. I was in the middle of doing a small section with a 4" pad when it...

    Post Your Detailing Collection

    Yes. Just a month. It's bad isn't it. There goes ally free time. My collection has almost doubled since then too. I also just picked up a cheapo one from office depot. I think it was like $20 or so with cheap tape refills. I went a little overboard with all the labels but it keeps it all nice...

    Top 3 Microfiber brands

    I actually just did this a couple weeks ago. I found that some of the towels were actually almost too soft and plush. Others a little too "stiff" and shortrer napped. Overall I love the supertowel silk banded towels. The most recent order I got of them were extremely soft, much softer than...

    Top 3 Microfiber brands

    Chemical Guys Haven't bothered with others as they meet my needs perfectly. Some of their towels are better than others but the ones I buy which come in bulk are the best that I could find for the price, weight, and silk edged.

    Post Your Unpacking Pictures

    I haven't yet. I have backlight but just previously applied collinite 845 so it will have to wait a month or two. Over 845, it provided great gloss and was very slick. Smelled nice too! Went on very easily with no streaking when applied in the shade.

    Prep for Sale Pt. 2 -- Wheels and Wheel Wells

    Amazing difference! I am excited to do the same to my wheels and hope that they turn out at least half as good as yours. I may have missed it in your post, but how long did it take per wheel?

    For those who have used the new OPC and ONR

    Ok that's what I thought. I hadn't noticed anything recently.

    When did they release a new OPC?

    Post your spray bottle of choice!

    That's what I have been doing with my APCs and other products that might harden or possibly eat away the inside. Just takes an extra minute and ensures that they stay working correctly for a long while. I know they are only $2 but I would rather not have a sprayer fail on me when I need it most.

    Not in Alpharetta, GA. So far is it just the OP's store that apparently has the new products?

    First detailing attempt review

    Too much product very well could have caused its demise. I learned about using too much product a lot yesterday. :doh:

    First detailing attempt review

    I was thinking that could have been the case after doing some digging. Are there any precautions I can take to prevent that from happening? Or do I just not use it as much and take breaks in between uses?
