    What coating would you recommend for my car? Corvette C4

    Wolfgang Uber Coating ... you don't need to top it. The gloss and reflection is incredible. Its also very user friendly to apply.

    Any tips for applying Klasse Sealant Glaze?

    The key is to buff it in and off almost immediately. Spritz, buff, clean buff. If you get a stubborn area, respritz and buff off. Then allow it to dry for 6-8 hours as possible. If you get a real stubborn spot, you can try a lightly damp MF towel. I don't like to add water to a curing...

    Hurricane Matthew heading our way!!!

    The challenge to wishing a hurricane goes elsewhere ...that just means someone else is in harms way. We are locked down in Broward County and looks like it may hit above us (or come darn close) in Palm Beach to Melbourne currently. Be safe ...

    Auto Insurance

    One of the most aggressive and competitive businesses ... only challenge, they often find something later and demand increased payment.

    Auto Insurance

    Was your Drivers License present ??? Did you use your real name and information ... then like medical insurance, they know everything. Also most use credit reporting as part of their risk assessment and charge accordingly.

    2016 Blue Metallic Buick Regal Paint Correction

    I would say its medium and typical GM paint. Nowhere near as soft as Nissan and other foreign makes.

    Which auto fogger to use?

    As other options, look to Duragloss Odor Absorber or Carpro's SoPure. I have used the bombs also, just make sure to have enough space that the fog will disperse.

    Amazing Roll Off - WOW!

    It works well on raised white letters (tires) and pvc furniture.

    Mid-Engine C8 Corvette

    Initially yes ... but as I tried to share and perhaps should elaborate is that the 7.0 liter (C6 / Z06) 427 is now gone and soon smaller more sophisticated engines will need to be used to meet the corporate CAFE standard. This will be the hardest nut for Chevy to crack as the Vette is now...

    Cleaning and polishing powder coated rims?

    I have often wondered if powdercoating is actually more durable than traditional painted/clear coated wheels ??? Everything I have seen, seems to show that powdercoating is just as easily susceptible to scratching and marring. I would personally coat any wheel type these days to try and...

    Mid-Engine C8 Corvette

    The Ford GT (Gt40) has a very long term racing heritage that was revived with the previous model Gt40 model. I am sure its a little smack in GM's hind for sure, but the Corvette has a modern racing heritage it can hang its hat onto. Vette has also been built without fail for 60 years now, no...

    Mid-Engine C8 Corvette

    The C6 ZR1 was not simply GM/Chevrolet testing a super vette ... it was also to see if the market would bear a 100k+ vehicle from GM. It sold very well and proved there is a market for a super high performance car from GM. The media helped with showing it against true supercars and building...

    My unbiased (nightmare) review of PBL V2 Diamond paint coating and Wolfgang Uber Ceramic

    On a high spot, since you don't really know how much extra is on the paint, you want to start least aggressive and move more aggressive as needed. We don't want to remove all of the coating, just the over application. So a hand polish with a light polish is a great way to start. Moving to...

    My unbiased (nightmare) review of PBL V2 Diamond paint coating and Wolfgang Uber Ceramic

    Try a light finishing polish on the high spots ... often times just a few wipes will remove the streaks and marks. You can always try a more aggressive polish if needed. If the coating flashed that fast, I guess I would find myself applying it and buffing almost immediately panel by panel or...

    My unbiased (nightmare) review of PBL V2 Diamond paint coating and Wolfgang Uber Ceramic

    I don't follow directions well .... so my results and techniques are completely different than suggested. What I will offer is that with Uber, I had no issues whatsoever. After polishing, and a wipe down, I applied it with syringe to foam applicator to finish in straight lines. Very little...

    Mid-Engine C8 Corvette

    Officially still a concept (several test mules are out)... but Fords GT certainly a thorn to GM. I suspect it's not to far off this time. Viper is currently DOA ... plant closes at years end. The new ACR model was supposed to be the last bang.

    Looking for a used car, confused by Carfax

    The used car game is just that ... could be someone's nightmare or simply time for an upgrade. You need to visit and see the unit. Check under the hood for dirt and damage, do things look right for its age. Are the bolts correct and painted. Look in glove compartment and see if any receipts...
