    Have cart, will travel (and wash)

    Needed a mobile wash ‘solution’ to move between the 3 bldgs we occupy in the industrial park where we’re located. We do regular maintenance & periodic repairs on our ‘fixed’ pressure washers so need something to easily and quickly roll in to avoid downtime. Also comes in handy to create...

    Some thoughts on Griots BOSS 21

    I know I struggled last year the whole Rupes v BOSS choice and even after reading everything I could find on the subject ya just never know until you yourself actually drive `em both. When at Barret-Jackson in Scottsdale last January, I got to play with a G21 in the Griots tent for a bit and it...

    Gyeon Syncro

    When I first saw the release/introduction of Gyeon Syncro via a SEMA 2017 video, I was quite intrigued at the possibility of them introducing a kit version of the Gyeon Mohs + Gyeon Booster combo. According to Gyeon reps I had spoken with previously, the Gyeon Mohs + Booster combo is an...

    Review: Gyeon CanCoat

    What to say regarding can coat except “Where ya been all my life?” What an incredibly easy and effective product to use. The look and feel of the surface after application is very, very nice and the application takes about a whole 10 minutes, no runs, no streaks, no errors. Water behavior...

    Gyeon Booster...anyone tried it?

    Thinking of maybe giving this a go over the top of CquartzUK or McKees Paint Coating. Product blurb says it increases the `self-cleaning` abilities of a coating. Curiosity is getting the better of me... Seems like perhaps the pro-only Gyeon offering of their Durabead product (Gyeon Q2 MOHS +...

    Cquartz UK

    Picked out my next `victim` to keep me entertained during the winter when I can`t do anything at home. 2016 Ford Transit, bright red...only 24K relatively easy miles. Since I snatched up some CQuartz UK at 25% off last week, figr`d I would give it a try on this, probably get the warehouse up...

    Fired up 3401 for the first time...

    Umm, "wow" pretty much sums it up. Kinda went into a polisher buying frenzy when AG had discounted gift certs last month. Have been using GG6 for last year but wanted to try something new so snatched up a LHR15 Mark 2, Rupes LHR75 Mini. Still had some $$ left over so figrd I see what all the...

    Review: Noob gives Rupes LHR15 Mark II HD Version a shot

    Background: Just kinda a garage hobbyist, been going at it since last April w/ a Griot’s Garage 6” DA. Mostly using 5.5” LC Flat, LC HydroTech foam pads and Megs 5” microfiber cutting discs. Started out w/ the WG Uber Compound, Total Swirl Remover & Finishing Glaze, moved to Menz FG 400...

    LHR15 Mk II + Duetto + Mini = Overkill?

    Just recently got the 15, quite enamored with it, the whole Rupes system for that matter. Still a ways to go on technique to maximize effectiveness but it`s really a treat nonetheless. The recent gift certificate sales have left me in a place where I could add a Duetto and a Mini to the group...

    Favorite combos in the land of Bigfoot?

    Gonna be getting in to whole Rupes thing with the LHR15 Mark II Bigfoot soon (Yay gift certificate discount days!) Curious as to what some of your favorite pad & polish/compound combos are? I realize all paint is different but there are likely some combos you reach for to start with, perhaps...

    Temperature for DGPS 12 hour curing?

    Starting to use some stuff that I bought and never got around to using this summer and one of those things in WG Deep Gloss Paint Sealant. Have a place (work) that is a dry warehouse (and plenty of vehicles to mess around with) so that`s not an issue but we sure don`t leave the heat on all...

    Pondering the Rupes LHR 12E Duetto...

    ...to supplement my GG6. The GG6 (with 5" BP) was a great first machine but thinking maybe the Duetto might be a smoother, more 'finesse' oriented machine for a garage hack like me. Don't do a lot of cars, mostly friends, neighbors for fun so don't really need a beast like the Flex. I...
