Arizona allows 7 characters on a custom plate. My Geeks On Call cars had GEEK001 thru GEEK012 as their license plates My current car has I just checked the AZ registration, and DETAIL and DETAILR are both taken. Custom license plates help identify a business name or service:coolgleam...

When I had the Geeks On Call franchises, I had 12 PT Cruisers. Being in the AZ sun, I wanted them as dark as possible, to hide the average $3,500 in computer parts that were in the back of each car. We did 35 in the fronts, and 20 the rest of the way around the cars. The 20 is too dark, if...

I guess I answered my own question. Paint Thickness Gauges do aluminum too. :doh: Once it's zeroed, I'm getting readings 0-3 µm on both the whiter spots and the darker areas. That says there's no paint, or at least almost none left. Many of the 0 µm readings come from the areas that I was...

Not that white stuff that you guys up north get for a good part of the year. This stuff I guess they could do it in white, but the wheels are silver. Jim

From several feet away, the wheels look OK. From up close, you can see the damage. This is the left rear wheel, which I haven't touched yet. Another photo Left front - after FG400, Wool Pad, and rotary buffer. These are the original wheels on the 1989 Pathfinder. I can...

Maybe you just need the proper options on the car. One of my IT customers had a BMW X3 that he had purchased used, and didn't look at it first. He called it the hunter option package. Don't know if it was a factory option or the first owner had done it himself, but the entire interior was...

Autogeek tries to bring products to us that we can't get just anywhere. Part of the mystique of being a professional in any industry is having parts and tools that the normal person has no knowledge of. For instance, my customers almost all have Supermicro servers that I had custom built for...

You might have a virus in your computer. You also might have a "poisoned" DNS record. Next time it happens, try this: Open a Command Prompt (Start-> All Programs -> Accessories -> Command Prompt) You will get an old DOS style black window. Type in: ipconfig /flushdns You should get a...

Hi Anthony: Here's a link to the FlexUSA website http://www.flexnorthamerica.com/products_7_1787053013.pdf Down towards the bottom there's a graphic showing the recommended uses for the 3401, 3403, and the PE14-2-150. I think the 3403 and 3401 were designed to augment each other, where the...

Perhaps there's a store in Columbus that stocks scarlet and grey waffle weaves. After all, Michigan does lead the series.:applause: Jim

For the Michigan fans after the Michigan OSU games in November. Having gone to I don't cheer for either one!:bash: Jim

Mark: I realize this might not be a suggestion you want to hear, but what about an IPA wipe and try to apply the C4 again to a small area? Sometimes more of the same product will clean up the mess left by an initial application. Maybe something to talk about with the GTechniq folks tomorrow...

OK, I'm officially jealous. I've still got my Celestron Nexstar11, and a Televue AP76. I was on the waiting list for the AP130 F6 Starfire for a few years, along with the AP1200GTO mount. The mount came up for me to buy, but with no ETA on a scope, I let it go. Then, they discontinued the scope...

a mixture of clinoptilolite and polysuccinimide :dunno: Hey, at least the polysuccinimide is a "polymer" I used to be half owner of a MLM company, and one of the products we sold a lot of was zeolite. (Clinoptilolite is a zeolite). Zeolite is a volcanic rock found in certain parts of the...
