    Overlap your passes by 50&#37

    I really do think it's a coding error. I remember maybe a year or two ago that there was a question about it. I believe Mike P addressed this issue and was supposedly working on it. try searching for the post.

    Overlap your passes by 50&#37

    I believe it's just a coding error. When you put in 50% sometimes it comes out that way for the percent sign.

    Metal coatings?

    Thanks for the info guys. I'll try the BL coating on a small piece to see how it looks first.

    Metal coatings?

    Yeah I think it's the fake chrome. I'm almost positive it is. I don't have a pic but while I was coating my trim with DLUX I got a little on the fake chrome. It made the rainbow effect like when it rains and you can see where there has been oil on the ground. I was thinking just waxing it but...

    Metal coatings?

    I have a 2016 Ford Fusion Energi. The grill is I think a chrome coating. What can I use to protect this. I was thinking DLUX but it seems to give sort of a rainbow effect to the metal. I have all the Black label coatings. Should I use one of those for the chrome?

    can I afford life

    I was in the same boat as you were at that age. I was an athlete in high school also. As I was graduating my parents had the talk with me. They said they'd pay for school but I had to follow what they wanted. I didn't want to go to the local school. I wanted to play baseball and one of the...

    Removing Stubborn Plasti Dip From Weather Stripping?

    Wow. That stuff made the plasti dip melt off for me. Only other thing I can think of is maybe meguiars M39. It's their heavy duty vinyl and rubber cleaner. Spray it on and scrub with a tooth brush.

    Removing Stubborn Plasti Dip From Weather Stripping?

    I apologize. It's called Label & Sticker Remover. I picked up a bottle of it at Pepboys for I believe $5.

    Removing Stubborn Plasti Dip From Weather Stripping?

    I just recently took off plasti dip off my buddies GSXR about 2 weeks ago. He sprayed it everywhere. What I found that worked really well was turtle wax tar and adhesive remover. While there really is no weather stripping he did get it on some rubber parts. What I did was spray the part...

    Need ideas- spray paint everywhere

    Try mineral spirits. It might work. Recently I had to remove a friends plasti dip from his motorcycle fairings. On some parts it wasn't coming off. I tried mineral spirits and it would dissolve it after some rubbing with microfiber. Another thing I tried was turtle wax adhesive remover. That...

    Cleaning a Rupes UHS pad?

    I did let it soak in a 5 gallon bucket with about 3-4 oz of CG pad cleaner and 3-4 oz of Meg's APC. I filled with water and let them soak for 2 days. Still dirty.

    Cleaning a Rupes UHS pad?

    What brand compound, and/or polish are you using? Or is it a AIO? Maybe someone has tips for that particular product. Sorry about that. I should've mentioned earlier that I'm using the UHS compound from Rupes. It's their AIO compound designed for those specific pads

    Cleaning a Rupes UHS pad?

    I actually have done that process. I used to add MF soap to the mix but didn't think it was necessary since the pad wasn't MF. All my other Rupes pads have come out clean using this method but it's just the UHS pads that are difficult. It's not cleaning them while polishing but more for after...

    Cleaning a Rupes UHS pad?

    So I've been driving myself crazy trying to get my UHS pads clean. I've been using a mixture of CG pad cleaning solution with a little spot cleaner mixed into a spray bottle and spraying it directly onto the pads and scrubbing with a pad brush. It gets them a little clean but not fully. Recently...

    what's your weather currently like?

    I had a softball tournament in Fontana this weekend. On Saturday it was 101 I believe and they took a temp on the dirt we were playing on and it was 128. They said the previous weekend in Indio the field temp was 149. The girls were complaining about their feet being to hot. Crazy hot.

    Claying after coating?

    It is a 2014 Acura RDX. Really soft paint. Scratches came out with a white polishing Rupes pad and white polish. The reason I remembered was when I was giving a wipe down before putting wax on the roof felt really rough. And yeah I was paid in something other than cash An expensive dinner on...
