    pick up and move?

    I think it would work out well. Don't forget we are still somewhat in a bad recession though. light did what you are considering 11 years ago and texas some time ago as well. I imagine before 2006/7. Jobs are pretty scarce even for educated and motivated people. I didn't move away, just decided...

    Chemical Guys Products?

    Obviously you haven't seen the deal of the month page for the past two months. I'd.... nevermind. OP, I have a similar post in the tips forum of this site and no one could really tell me anything except an email address. They said their recommendation would even be different person to person.

    Need help removing thick adhesive

    Hey guys, not sure the best place to post this. At work we have to remove signs that have 3m double sided tape holding them onto the rack. I've used various chemicals to clean the residue/gunk off of the rack. They work, and it is a pain staking process. I would like to know if you can use a PC...

    Newbie here

    Welcome Even if there are shops near you, you will pay more. AG is by far the cheapest place to buy quality detailing goods. You should have been PMed a free shipping code on orders over 95 bucks. There are also a few 10% off coupons floating around that you can use in conjunction with the free...

    Replacing XMT with CG products

    Thanks Waxman Stang, if you like a good wet look and aren't so much on durability then give buttery wet wax a try. Super great product in my novice opinion. Even makes a metallic silver car look wet.

    Other hobbies??

    I'm a huge Kimber fan...defiantly makes detailing look cheap. I have a hefty ammo bill. I do photography but I don't buy many new things for the ol' SLR so not much money going that way. I used to dump crap tons of money into my rides mod just to realize I never race or anything so why do it...

    Trying to quit smoking

    Another key thing I found important is to keep the car windows rolled all the way up on a trip. I would crack it just a little and it did nothing but make me think that I could be ashing from the window or getting the smoke out. Really made me want a cig. Might not be the same for you, but you...

    Hose Nozzle

    Traditional with all the options to spin through. I would like to try a fire hose with a shut off valve one day though. The one without just didn't work for me and it also got stuck to my hose so I couldn't run to lowes and purchase one to try. Found an el-cheapo traditional at wally world with...

    Replacing XMT with CG products

    But is black light a light polish? A glaze? A sealant? It really makes no sense. I even tried to find an email addy for CG on their site to no avail.

    Trying to quit smoking

    4 years at a pack + a day for me. Horrible decision. I've moved to the bigger of two evils and I do dip a few times a day.(heard somewhere a can of dip is equal to a carton of cigs in nicotine content) When I started I thought it would help with me not having headaches or the nicotine cravings...

    Replacing XMT with CG products

    Thanks for the replies everyone. Good to know I wasn't the only one lost. I actually met with a local detailer and he is also the Adams dealer for my area. (sorry if I'm not supposed to mention a product AG doesn't carry.) I am trying a few of their products and so far impressed, but I'm so new...

    New To Detailing Recommend Supplies?

    Rinseless wash is a less time consuming way of washing a car. If your car is really dirty then it's not advisable from what I understand. You can also do about a million things with the rinseless wash. Quick detailer, clay lube...ect. Some people also mix it into wash soap to provide more...

    Replacing XMT with CG products

    Thanks for the quick replies fellas! Setec, it is defiantly a mystery how they come up with this stuff. Ryan, I am using the PC 7424xp. This forum is very friendly. Sucks to hear the PC2 didn't work out so well. Mobile, I am in Alabama. The Optical line is expensive. It is on the wacky one...

    Replacing XMT with CG products

    I am almost out of XMT product and would like to change to CG. I am having a hard time telling the different between their products and what they actually do. The paint correction 3 (no. 700)is obviously a heavy swirl remover, but what about the optical compound v34? If someone would be so kind...
