    Request input on First logo

    I do like that you added the embossing to the new font, however I think that the added shadows are a bit much. I would also leave the bottom as it was, and only emboss Revive. You'll lose clarity on shirts and posters; hard edges (no shadow) may be a better choice here. I also agree with...

    Bad Yelp Review? Use it to your advantage

    Kind of pretentious to be proud of not doing work for people who live in apartments. But congrats on the good reviews.

    Cleaning honeycomb plastic grilles?

    What was linked was the wheel woolie brush, not a wheel woolie.

    Air Injection, i.e Garry Dean - is it ok for Rinseless Wash

    I believe it is also because it is a "drier" approach. There is not much lubrication when wiping.

    Air Injection, i.e Garry Dean - is it ok for Rinseless Wash

    During one of his demonstrations he says it may cause swirls, but that's okay because he doesn't have time for people who whine about swirls because they're so easy to get out. To me, that's not okay. I understand there are people who don't care about swirls, but for maintenance washes for...

    2007 GTI: Never Washed

    The HF DA is a great machine, but its backing plate and the HF pads should be replaced immediately. The polisher itself should serve you very well. Grab a lake country 5" backing plate and some 5.5" flat pads. (or whatever pad you like, but these are economical and deliver great results)...

    Brinkman Dual Xenon/LED EXTINCT?

    It's literally the exact same thing as the gray one. If you were going to buy that then no reason not to get the white one. Mine has held up for about 2 years now.

    Just be careful with a pressure washer.

    Clothe top overspray

    Also, use a beach towel to cover up the glass. You can tape the top in place (and bottom if you're outdoors or there's a fan) and not have to worry about using a lot of tape.

    Harbor freight pads

    You will need a 5" backing plate. It is worth the investment. The smaller pads and backing plate will allow you to get the most out of the Harbor Freight DA.

    Just get the blue and white one while you can.

    Foam sealant on paint!

    Try a bug/tar remover to dissolve it? Maybe even goo gone. If that fails, then a plastic razor blade followed by clay should do the trick.

    GIVEAWAY! Someone will get a lot of goodies

    Adding the pictures I promised earlier. My Nikon D3300 just arrived today, so I will be able to do better pictures and videos than these, this is just with my phone. Car is a little dirty from driving this week, but this would be the test subject :

    GIVEAWAY! Someone will get a lot of goodies

    I will put up a picture of my coated car this evening. I picked up PBL Coating v1 during the sale a couple of weeks ago, and coated my car this past weekend. I have a couple of spots I need to apply Dr. Colorchip to, so I will be polishing off the old coating and re-applying, would love to do...

    Junk On Pads

    Does the car have tinted clear coat? By you saying it's "muddy" and not just "black", perhaps the clear coat is tinted.

    Orange peel

    Generally speaking, no - traditional pads will not level orange peel over time. They are soft enough to move with the peaks and valleys of the orange peel - and therefore you will see consistent paint removal at the tops and bottoms of the peel. Pads for removing orange peel (like denim) and...

    best da/polisher for lens corrections?

    I usually charge $50 for the first light, then $25 for each additional. That's with sanding. If they're just yellow it's around half. Fog lights (if they're small) I'll usually do $15. If they get the tail lights done I do the third brake light for free if it's external. They're usually...
