Anyone see this yet? Randy Couture is back in the UFC

2008 Infiniti G37S Detail This beautiful Infinity G37S suffered from dealer detail syndrome! The client brought this brand new G37S to the dealer on a couple occasions where the dealer offered the dreaded "free detail" (you're really paying for it by how bad the usually hack the car up!). As is...

I had a couple new things I wanted to try out... namely 106ff and NXT 2.0. I also used my grout sponge for the first time. I gotta say... best $2 I spent on detailing products. :up I probably don't need to say much more than "I concur" as regards to 106ff... that stuff is amazing! I was...

This truck has never been waxed since purchasing it new 3 years ago according to the owner. This was very evident the minute water hit the surface. Wheels were cleaned with a brightener (more on this to come... check back later on this blog for more details on this product) and a pressure...

This stuff is indestructible! Full correction and application of 101/105 was done in the beginning of June. I've maintained it with AW probably once maybe twice a month.

Like the title says, I've got a LOT of this stuff and recently picked up a bunch of 4 and 8 oz. bottles from US Plastic and wouldn't mind trying some new stuff. I'm interested in it all, polishes, compounds, LSPs even dressings and cleaners. Let me know what you've got and we'll trade bottles...

Dropped the snake and got some new shoes this weekend... Haven't had time to fresh up the detail (hopefully this week) so I will do a better photo shoot once she's cleaner. Before: After(s): Rest of the pictures here...

This was a very unique car! Full roll cage, coil overs and plenty of rubber on the paint from the super soft tires and the commute up from Charlotte to Winston Salem, NC. The paint ended up being a lot harder than I thought it would be. I've done 2001 M3s and they didn't seem to have as hard...

Friend of mine was going to have this car repainted because he thought the orange peel was too bad. I told him that I would take a crack at it (one small area) to see what can be done. Looks like this car had been sprayed several times with SS paint. Process Wet sand 1000 grit Wet sand 2000...

The first one is a quick on of the $30 foam gun in action: YouTube - $30 Foam Gun Car Wash This one is my doing some wetsanding on the trunk of my cobra followed by Meg's #4 and OP topped with DG #105. YouTube - Wetsanding The Cobra's Trunk

I'm fairly new to this level of detailing / paint correction so I figured I would share some of my lessons I learned along the way. So last night I was finally motivated to finally test out some of my new stuff. I wanted to try to rotary again. Last time I was all over the place with it! I...

I recently bought an alomst brand new Cyclo 11A (pneumatic version) from a great deal. I wanted the pneumatic version because it supposed to be much quieter (definitely is) and has a much longer cuty cycle (i.e. lasts longer). So I used it for the first time last night. First impressions...

This is my wife's daily driver/used to be my dailer commuter for a 180 mile daily commute. I bought it new in November of 2000 and it has been a great car. Cheap payment, good on gas and reasonably comfortable. It has been good to us... on Friday to odometer flipped over to the whopping...

I know that some of you have been here... you're wet sanding and don't realize how thin the paint is and the unthinkable happens. You see primer! At first I thought this couldn't be but as you see... it got even worse when I tried to compound it out. What are my options here guys?! Please don't...

To start we have a 1999 Ford Mustang Cobra with pretty neglected paint. (This owner must be too busy in life to keep this car nice - shame shame). Plenty of scratches, water etching, oxidation and swirlies. This is really my first time attempting something at this level so I have been trying...

Can someone give me a breif synopsis on the pros and cons, advantages and disadvantages of a rotary (Makita 9227CY Polisher) vs. a dual action (i.e. PC 7424). As far as I can tell, everyone is saying that there is a danger in a orbital polisher in that it can heat up quicker and cause damage to...
