    $65,000 Camaro w/ all the options, especially the DISO!!!

    I used to wash cars as a lot boy at a lincoln mazda dealer and this was before I knew anything so Im sure I was instilling plenty of swirls back then but there was also a company of asian guys who would come by every week and bring a pressure washer with a long hose and spray all the cars down...

    "Free interior detail!" *RANT*

    Gf took my legacy to a glass shop as a surprise for christmas to replace my spider cracked windshield and they vacuumed the carpets but I guess they told her it really didn't need it. I had just put the carpet back in after removing it and soaking with purple power and pressure washing it...

    Do any of you flip cars?

    I wouldn't do it if you aren't already a shade tree mechanic. That's where the money comes from. What you do is familiarize yourself with a few models and more specifically models that have known problems like head gaskets on dohc 2.5l subarus and you can get those fixed yourself for a few...

    Do any of you flip cars?

    However, if you're not worried about johnny law catching you then there is money to be made if you're a good mechanic and know a body guy who works for heap. I know people who maximize profits by never transfering titles when they sell their cars to avoid the limit and to avoid paying any taxes...

    Do any of you flip cars?

    The dealerships pushed these laws to stop what they call curbstoners which is there term for the average joe trying to flip cars for extra cash or for a living. Its bullshit. Its quite difficult for someone to obtain a license to sell used cars. Must have commercially zoned lot w/building...

    Do any of you flip cars?

    In washington its technically illegal. I've looked up the rules and laws of getting a dealer license because of it. Its against the law to buy a vehicle with the intent to sell it for a profit. No joke. There's also a two or three vehicle limit per year you can sell.

    3m headlight kit results pretty impressed

    They work pretty good if you've got patience. Just make sure you hit those with some type of UV protectant now or they will yellow again. I put several coats of wax on and they've stayed clear for a couple years now but its time to polish them again. Maybe a sealant would be better or a...

    For the first time, I'm not happy with AG service.

    I bought cg shampoo in a gallon jug and it arrived with the cap loose and several ounces leaked out inside the bag that was around the container. Meguiars products from AG had the lids taped closed. Btw the cg gallon was from amazon but I'm sure it was drop shipped directly from CG.

    Auto Geek Bad Customer Service?

    My foam cannon was cracked upon arrival and for some reason they shipped it with the plastic barrel threaded onto the gun already and it was obvious someone had threaded it on too tightly causing the brake. I called them up immediately and got sent to a person who didn't answer so I called back...

    Proper setting on my PC 7424XP

    Ok I was wondering if I was using too high of a setting. I had mine cranked up to 6 since any lower than that I was having problems with the pad not rotating all the time.

    Anyone Have Leak Problems With The Plastic Jugs That Meguiar's Super Degreaser Comes In?

    Hmm...I have some leakage on top of my toolbox cabinet where there's a line of detailing products (none of which are super degreaser) and I don't know what its from. Didn't investigate yet but I assumed it was from when the cats knocked some stuff over but they're all sealed so maybe I have a...

    Charging by the hour vs...

    Jobs like these are best quoted by the job imo. If you throw out a dollar per hour number the first thing that the client will do is compare it to how much THEY make per hour so you'd better hope is mpre than what you're charging because people generally don't like paying more per hour than...

    Will this yellowing come out of engine bay paint?

    I did rub on it a little with some ultimate compound and some of the yellow did come out so maybe compounding is the answer?
