    Called For Insurance Quote - Can't Cover Me

    I called my insurance company the other day to get a quote for business liability and garage keepers insurance. After contacting their underwriters to get more information, the agent called me back and said that, because I am home-based, they wouldn't cover any painting or paint-related work...

    What Are These Spots??

    This past weekend, I completed a paint correction, wheel coating, CQuartz application, and CQuartz Dlux application on a brand new 2013 Honda Pilot. For being brand new, this thing had some issues. Besides the DISO, there were a few good scratches, some really nasty type II water craters...

    Progress Updates: 2013 Honda Accord Touring

    Here's a quick shot of the progress on my Accord. I'll continue to update this thread as I go. The trunk lid and rear bumper are now, finally, 100% orange peel free! The bumper is sealed with BFWD, and the back of the trunk lid (around the Honda logo) is topped with BlackICE.

    Auto Geek Business Cards?

    Does AG have any business cards that list both the store and forum websites? I think these would be awesome promotional tools that customers can use to spread the word about AG! The cards could even include something about how new members get 20% off their first order. I can't tell you how...

    Giveaway - Lake Country Changeable Backing Plate System

    Some of you may remember that I recently posted about an issue I had with a recently acquired Lake Country Changeable Backing Plate System for the Flex 3401 VRG. That post was quickly replied to by Eric from Lake Country, and he requested that I contact him directly about my issue. I quickly...

    Broken Lake Country Changeable Backing Plate System

    About a week ago I received my Lake Country Changeable Backing Plate System for the Flex 3401 VRG after it was on backorder for awhile. Tonight while buffing my car, this happens: No wobbling, no warning, just snap! The part that came off is exactly where it was when it happened. I thought...

    Mini-Review: Lake Country 5" Hybrid Pads

    About a month ago, I thought I had made my best detailing purchase - a Flex 3401 VRG polisher. Today I must admit I was wrong, as my best purchase showed up in the mail today. That purchase would be the Lake Country Hybrid Pads for my Flex 3402 VRG. To say that these pads are, as others...

    Return of the Diamond Pearl

    This past weekend I detailed my Dad's White Diamond Pearl 2009 Honda Accord for his Father's Day gift. He recently retired from the railroad, and needless to say, his car had been subjected daily to a massive dose of rail dust. Additionally, the car had never peen polished before and the paint...

    New Use For CarPro Denim Orange Peel Pads

    I'm not sure if this can be considered "new" or not, but since I haven't seen anything posted about it on here... I have some of CarPro's Denim Orange Peel Pads that I have been using to clear up the orange peel on my 2013 Honda Accord Touring. I'll post another time on my progress on that...

    2013 Honda Accord - Initial Paint Correction

    I'm doing some initial correction of the factory paint on my 2013 Honda Accord. The primary objective is trying to remove at least some of the excessive factory orange peel (since I know I can't reasonably remove it all). I'll update this thread and I go, but figured I'd post a quick little...

    What is my best option for removing or improving this orange peel?

    I apologize if this exact question has been asked already, a search answered some bits and pieces, but not the whole scenario... I bought a black 2013 Honda Accord Touring a couple of months ago and, although almost all new cars have orange peel these days, I found the orange peel on my new...
