Hey guys, long time no chat. Life's been crazy but I'm back with a question. Going to give my Jeep a good detail this weekend before pulling the top for summer and I'm finally going to use the Optimum GPS I picked up for it a couple years ago (yes it still seems to be good). I've figured out...

Hey guys, got a crazy question here. So I just ordered a Motorola X smartphone which can be completely customized with different materials on the back at order time. Options are plastic, real wood laminate, and real un-sealed leather. I ordered one with leather, and I was thinking about...

Hi guys. Not sure if I did something wrong, or am just expecting too much out of UTTG but I've never had this problem before when I used to use 303 instead. My Jeep has a lot of textured plastic (fenders & bumpers). After applying UTTG, the new formula one, a few weeks ago, I went offroading...

Can UTTG be used in a high temp environment like the engine bay? If so is it really worth it for the cost? Also can it be used on the "rubber" seals on my doors and windshield for the removable top on my Jeep? Previously I've been using 303 on the engine, seals, trim, but it runs like crazy...

Hi guys, been a while since I posted here, but I'm back with a couple questions. I just picked up a used soft top for my Jeep. As best I can tell it's either cloth or a coated cloth (cloth texture outside, inside is definitely cloth). I'm wondering what I should be using to clean it with...

Hey guys, so a while back I picked up the spray bottle of Optimum GPS Optimum GPS Glaze Polish Sealant I haven't gotten around to using it yet but am hoping to this weekend. One thing I don't know is if there is a cure time for the sealant aspect of the product. Does anyone have an idea here...

So I've kinda been MIA for a while. Mostly crazy combinations of managing to tweak an elbow or shoulder and not be able to do much detailing on the Jeep in the last 6 months or so. I'm back though :). So I stuck this here because even though it's also a help request, it's not really for...

Craigslist strikes again lol......................... wiggles needs a new love seat (yes it's work/kid safe)

Hmmmm, seems Alex didn't manage to take back over today after all so I guess I'll start the thread :). Yet again I'm glad this week is over. Just been one of those "no motivation lets just get to the weekend and try again next week" weeks. I'm excited for Sunday, I get to see the new furry...

Yep, it's Friday. Hope everyone had a decent week. I'm definitely glad it's Friday, I just have not been too enthusiastic about work this week. Have a pretty relaxed weekend coming up myself. Pulling out the smoker in the morning to slap some smoke flavor on one of those pre-cooked spiral...

Alko asked me to take over the Friday threads for a bit so here we are :dblthumb2: Hope everyone has a good weekend planned. It finally cooled off here a bit and is out of the 90's so I'm going to enjoy doing a little maintenance on the Jeep this weekend (oil change & tire rotation). Sunday...

Anyone combine these? Are they compatible? I'm thinking of using GPS on my Jeep for the glaze filler capabilities (unless there is a better suggestion) because scratches from brush off-road is becoming inevitable (I try to avoid it but sometimes I get taken on a trail where it can't be...

Happy Friday all! So, with a lot of people having a long weekend anyone have any good plans? We're having a BBQ on Sunday. I do mean BBQ (vs. just grilling). I'm pulling out the smoker and doing a couple tri-tips and my first shot at ribs for some family and friends that are coming over...

Is it normal for PDR places to do any buffing afterwards? My gf used a Groupon today for PDR for a couple dents someone put in the side while she was parked downtown one day. We went to dinner and in the setting sun I took a look a the repair job. I quickly realized someone who had zero...

Well, it's that time again, it's finally Friday!! Hope you all had a good week :xyxthumbs: I'm going to have a nice "man cave" weekend. In other words the gf works Sat/Sun so I have the house to myself :D. The only thing I really have planned is to smoke some ribs on Sunday as a test run (my...

Didn't get more pics unfortunately but here's the results now that I got around to dealing with the pics. I say that because I did this at the end of May actually. Procedure was as follows......... 1. wash with Dodo BTBM and Dawn 2. Clay with XMT Speed Clay 3. Polish with Wolfgang Finishing...

Hope you guys had a good week. I'm glad it's Friday. Mostly because I ended up taking the day off :xyxthumbs: Looking forward to Sunday when we're throwing a small BBQ party for some family. Gonna break out the smoker and do smoked tri-tip steak!

Ooops I forgot it was actually Friday and that I was taking over the Friday threads for Alko for a few weeks. Hope everyone is going to have a great weekend. Sorry I don't have any cool videos or anything (at least this week), maybe next time :xyxthumbs:. So I'm pretty much just hiding...

So, a while back Alko was bugging me to post pics of my new Jeep (well it was new in January lol). I finally told him in May I had some great pics of before/after cleanup from an off-road trip and I was going to post them. Well, it took me this long to get around to learning my new photo...

So right now I'm using the 5" back plate with 5.5" pads on my PC. I'd like to get a second smaller backing plate and pads for the smaller detail areas. I've switched over to using the LC flat pads because they work better with the Wolfgang DAT type products I have (though I might grab some of...
