Guys, Have been ill for quite a while and not up to the strength and stamina to do the detailing work I used to do. I NEED a recommendation for a good detailer in the Rochester, NY (Western NY for those who don't know the general area) for work on my Corvette and Impala. Can you help me out...

Guys, Had 4 new tires installed on my '08 Impala recently and the installer left me with some issues. Among other things (like 10PSI + over pressure in each tire, bead lube all over the wheels and screwing up the price) the installer left me with: > Wheel weight pad adhesive still on the...

Since Global Warming has reached Western NY State with temperatures in the 80's this weekend, here's the token plan for the Corvette Spring Clean-up, since it's sat in the garage most of the last 4 months (except for the occasionally warm/dry/sunny day in January and now March->April). The...

All, The best of holidays to you all and your families. I hope your immense appetite for detailing products doesn't upset the financial apple cart this season and that you all get what you want under the tree. I know many of you guys just bought them for yourselves anyway!!). We all have...

OK..............the product "reviews" for Seville Classic garage cabinets were ~unanimously positive!! Lots of thumbs-up feedback on various forums, on the Sam's Club site and at Seville. Based on my personal assessment at Sam's, I think the input was about right. Very stout cabinets and...

These might have been on a previous post, but thought I'd show them anyways. A bargain at 3 for $0.99 on sale (which everything at Harbor Freight usually is). I use them with Opti-Bond out of the bottle............works very, very well. Not bad for 33 cents apiece. And helps make Opti-Bond...

Anybody have recent experience with paying for garage drywalling & insulation? Have a 3-car garage (figure 24' x 36' or so). One wall is the fire barrier with the house/drywalled, insulated obviously & primed. The balance is unfinished, 2" x 4" studded walls, 1 large garage door and one...

Shopping for Next Car - Best Choices, Recommendations & Experiences??? Well, the lease is nearly up on the 2008 Impala LTZ and it's time to start considering a replacement, whether new or used, purchased or leased. So, thought I'd put a post out there for some suggestions, recommendations and...

Need some unusual information. Undoubtedly, there isn't a big market for this, but am wondering if anyone has come across a source for performance parts that can be used with very late-model Chevrolet Impalas.............2008 or newer?? Have checked with Chevrolet sites and as suspected, not...

Optimum Car Wash Dilution Ratios for AG/Gilmour Foam Gun? Could use some feedback on the dilution ratio for Optimum Car Wash used with my 1-Qt. Gilmore (actually, AutoGeek) foam gun. I know I have seen a thread pertaining to this, but can't seem to find it again via search. Since the foam gun...

Well, in a matter of just 24hrs., it appears that summer has left us here in Western New York and fall is settling in..............the usual......falling temps., rain, wind, ECK!! I have gotta move! The info. I am seeking is undoubtedly product specific along with other ambient factors, BUT...

Maybe this info. has previously been discussed/posted, but I ran across a Griots Garage programming segment note on ShopNBC, scheduled for 12:00- 1:00AM tonight EDT (technically, 9/29/09). That's different...........sorry if it's redundant to other posted info. See ya.

Have done a search here for information about Collonite products and thought I'd post a query about recent experience with 845/915 or even 476. It appears that these products are universally admired. Since I live in the heart of "snowland", I thought I'd look into adding a durable...

Have done a search on this topic in different forums with varying results; some are a bit old and wanted to raise the question again in lieu of newer products & user opinions. A question about the best way to remove old sealants/waxes prior to applying fresh coats (whether the car is being...

A mundane topic, but, what's the latest recommendation for tripod mounted worklights (halogen or other superior technology) and where to procure them? A search of the site doesn't yield too much in the way of recent posts. I assume the usual Home Depot Husky brand is OK (the only thing I can...

TAPE ,............a mundane topic, to say the least, BUT: Have done a search in the forum on what specific type of 3M tape is best for car detailing & the typical width people use to prepare for polishing. A million posts that mention "tape".............very few with any specificity. > What...

The UPS freighter docked at my house and look what appeared!! Thanks to AutoGeek, I now have a foyer filled with products (which soon need to migrate their way to the garage)! :) A very fine selection if I do say so myself.! ;) Thanks to: Scott (KillrWheels) and Dwayne at the 'Geek for all...

Would like recommendations for quality 32oz spray bottles that won't break the bank. See many vendors sell their own lable, plus Spraymaster Brand byDelta Sprayers. They're great w/a warrnaty none the less, but if you buy a lot, $6ea seems high. FYI, for a decent 24oz Sprayer, I found some by...

Have seen chemical products described for "paint preparation" prior to polishing or LSP, if already prepared? Any suggestions about which line works well and the appropriate prep-step sequence to use then with? Appreciate the feedback. See ya
