    Fun With Homebrews....

    Long winded, but fun :) The Great Alcohol Experiment of 2014... (in my home, anyway) So, i've been having some fun on the homebrewed beer front over the past year or so. Made some good brews, a few crowd pleasers that I'll repeat… But I wanted to try something different this year, in...

    2010 Honda Insight.. "It's Black Again"

    I worked on a 2010 Honda Insight over the weekend. The original plan was to do a medium polish to knock down the swirls and reduce the appearance of several scratches, then to come back with a finer polish prior to LSP. Due to scheduling, traffic, weather, etc, we started later than we...

    Just a quickie: 2007 Corolla and Hydro2

    This weekend I did just the basic wash and seal of the corolla. Nothing fancy, nothing you're not used to - except i used Hydro2 as the sealant, in leiu of the multitudes of others that i have on hand (thanks Seth). Did not dress the tires - need to scrub and re-dress at a later time - and...

    Question to Hydro2 users:

    How do you market Hydro2, permanon, etc, to clients for full vehicle protection? After exploring this product this weekend I am in favor of putting it out there as an option for some of the vehicles I see. Spray it on, spray it off, blow dry. Simple, quick, easy. Offers up to 3 months...

    Why is it....

    always that whenever I actually have time to dedicate to polish my vehicles that mother nature decides it's time to let loose her fury? and by fury i mean a local thunderstorm with lighting strikes.

    Track Day

    This past Saturday, I met my parents up at Maple Grove Raceway for a day at the track. Anticipation mounts as we make our way though the ticketing gate.. I haven't driven the car in over a year, so I was pretty amped the entire ride up. We got our pit area set up along the fence near the...

    Cigar Aficionados

    Is this a good cigar? I don't smoke cigars on the regular, so I couldn't tell the difference between a squirrel or a swirl in the cigar world. I got it in trade for some homebrews, and it was obtained when my co-worker was stationed overseas in Italy. Sorry for the crappy cameraphone pics...
