Excellent thread and question OP, thanks. I hadn't thought about this but it kind of makes sense and it can't hurt to protect against it. I am going to pick out new everyday and work/safety glasses next week and will look into this when I go through options. My first thought as I read...

That group of posts that Mike just strung together is what just about anyone can read to get started. I think I might have actually read ALL of the threads here and many others else where before I two stepped my car. I also bought the Harbor Freight DA and it did a fine job. It is nowhere as...

Yep, this right here. I had an orange and white pad that I'm sure I didn't get to hot while learning, but it somehow made the Velcro come off. Threw them aside until one day I needed a small pad to had rub out behind door handles. Chopped it up to a handy size and then use whatever compound you...

Just a guess, but they are having the season 2 Competition Ready premier at the shop today, might be a little less organized then normal. Bet they will get back to you ASAP and you now have this to prove you had tried to get a hold of them. They'll fix it.

Love it, great information.

I sacrificed a pad that I had overheated and killed the Velcro on. (things you learn) Cut it into smaller chunks/strips and just rub the polish of choice by hand. Mom's white Highlander looked like teams of raccoons had tried to steal it. Came right off with M205 and not much work. Big...

I tried the orange cord rollers and just like they said in that video, they just roll too tight at the bottom, no good. Used to do the old arm wrap but again, just like they say, makes it a hot mess to unwind. I have a 100ft cord from the old electric weed eater that I learned to daisy chain...

Most all APC works well, dilute it though and it might "wear out" your topcoat so you may need a reapplication in the general area. I love these bug sponges, this link is for Lake Country but there are various suppliers just here at AG, Lake Country Ultimate Bug Sponge, bug and tar sponge I...

Excellent class and great idea. I was able to attend the 3 day class last October held in the garage at turn one of the Indianapolis Motor Speedway. This was a modified version of the normal classes and was sponsored by Autogeek, Sonax and Flex. It was very much HANDS ON. Rotary, DA, Flex of...

I agree, did a forehead slap when i saw that. Very nice. I also remember the velcro on the bottom of the shelf idea. You guys are good. Gotta get me pads together and take a shot at this contest.

Yep, found mine too. It came earlier today but couldn't check personal email at work. Good to go, thanks. State baseball finals tomorrow afternoon and then off to Indy.

Hey Mike, Should we be getting information from Sonax or someone about where to go on Friday? Like which gate and such? I have looked through my email and didn't see anything, just want to make sure I didn't miss it. Can't wait, missing work to work even harder on cars. Love it.

Ok, that just made me laugh and I was in a really pissy mood. Thank you I love that dumb people have GoPro's and access to YouTube now. so much easier than waiting all week for Jackass. That first video, I gasped when he pressure washed the door jambs and then the drippy wash mitt on the...

I just booked a room there as well so if you haven't hooked up a ride, I can grab you. PM me or just let me know here and we can get info shared. Getting excited, I'm ready to learn more about making things shiney.

I'm looking at hotel options now and I'll be driving over from Southern Illinois. I'll gladly help move folks, but driving the Mustang so one will be easy and anyone brave enough to ride in the back can also. I am working Thursday and then driving over so will likely be in later in the evening.

I'm in. Signed up last night when I got home from work. Put in vacation day from work today. Really glad they rescheduled from April.

Form looks great. Requesting a copy. [email protected]

I love the stuff. I have been super busy at work or with the girlfriend and haven't got to throw any wax on my car since at least last October. It has rained buckets a few times in the past weeks and it still out beads pretty much every car in the parking lot at work. I have been rinsing it...

I "might" have overheated some of my pads on the first or second go with a nice polisher and that lead to the backing coming off and it no longer being Velcro-able. I sat them aside and mourned their loss. Some time later while working on Mom's white Highlander I really needed to get behind...
