    pad stuck on PC

    irrelevant, end of discussion joe - yes I have the wrench for the PC. I tried messing around with it some more tonight and unfortunately, I don't think that pad is going to come off unless I destroy the pad, in otherwords, rip the pad apart from the velcro backing, ditch both the pad and my...

    pad stuck on PC

    it's problems like these that make me think sometimes that detailing just isn't for me. I love a good shine and my cars to look awesome most of the time. I finished up a good once over with my Mother's Grand Prix GT. Wash, clay, Polish, wax & top. I used some Nxt with the PC for the wax...

    Geo Tracker buff out thread

    thanks guys! I tried picking the product up with the buffer and that works sometimes, but when it does, it works nicely so I need to tweak on that technique. However, I managed to simply reduce the product being used onto the pad. I just put 2 small dots on opposite sides of the pad, smear...

    Help! PC burning pads!

    yea my extension cord is like 8gauge and about 20ft long. At most!!, all you need is about medium pressure even when using a heavy polish(not quite a compound) maybe about 10lbs. I'm somewhat of a noob but I see you are well recognized here. Welcome back man! -Mike-

    Dodge Chrome Clad wheels

    Here's a trick - after you wash your truck, grab some aluminum foil from the kitchen, tear off a small sheet, use the shiney side of the foil to polish the rim. Dunk the piece of foil into the wash water and just like your polishing your rims. After you've gone over your rim, rinse it off...

    2 cars, 2 weeks

    parents are away in Ireland as we speak. Have an 02 Grand Prix GT and a 97 Geo Tracker 4x4. They'll be sitting in the garage for 2 weeks while there away. Don't see a need for fuel stabilizer, the cars are clean. Don't see a need to do much of anything to them? -Mike-
