Happy Friday Boys and Girls!!!!

Man...its been a scorcher this week! Up in the upper 90's and lower 100's. I'm sure there are some of you that have had hotter weather. This week also ushered in the official start to summer.

That being said, here are some songs to kick off summer!!!!

This is for all the old school hip-hop heads like myself. You always knew it was officially summer when you heard this come on the radio:

I took today off as a mental health day, although I doubt I'll sit and do nothing. I need to hit the barbershop and get a fresh hair cut. After that I'm going to head over to the body shop, finally, and pick up some scrap parts so I can start practicing wet sanding. I also need to change the oil and rotate the tires. I'll take that opportunity to clean the inside of the wheels and maybe put some Collinite 915 on them. My co worker, whose car I was supposed to Opti-Coat, had to go to PA so thats on hold. I'm sure I'll get some detailing in on my car.

Other then that, I'm hanging with my lady!!! What about you guys and gals? What do ya'll have planned?

Happy Friday Alex and everyone else!

This week I had three cars to detail, so I'm taking a break on the large parts. Maybe a some interior cleaning. Weather had been more humid than hot here. Just gonna do some general cleaning up and kick back and relax for the rest.

Enjoy!!
 
Happy Friday all. We're getting some cooler weather here which is nice. Highs in the mid-upper 70's this weekend (big change from 100+ last weekend). I'm taking the opportunity to do a correction & seal on the gf's Altima tomorrow while she's at work. Only bad thing is I have to get up and take her to work at 6:15 to do it, yuck. Sunday she works again and I'm going to just kick back and do nothing lol. Well, maybe top the sealant on her car with some nuba but we'll see.
 
finally got the weekend off! I may actually change out that s10's radiator that's had a hole in it for about a year!!!!

Happy fricken Friday Alex! and everyone elso for that matter, just need to get to 2300, and is smooth sailing to midnight!
 
Yes, Happy Friday indeed! 1.5 more hours of work then I'm off for 2 weeks!! Can you say "WooooooooHoooooooooo"!!!!
 
OK, I'll PM it to you then for every day the next 2 weeks to remind you how much fun I'm having, LOL!!

Ok, I give in. Wooooooooohoooooooooo!

but I'm still not having fun.

Tennessee huh? Too bad you're not in the Detroit area, I'd have a cold Canadian beer and a cigar waiting for you. Let the fun begin...

OH! such fond memories.

No such waiting-period for vacation-time...Now.

"WooooooooHoooooooooo"!!!! INDEED!!!



(I realize my SS checks are probably non-Canadian related; but, to my fellow Americans I'll say:
"Keep up the good work. And, as always...Thanks! for your support"

:D

Well, it's in decent shape considering it's black paint, it sat on the lot for who knows how long until she bought it in September (2011 model year), and this will be the first chance I've had to get to anything other than a wash or putting a quick coat of DGPS on to get it through the winter. It's definitely got some fine scratches, but hopefully with the soft Nissan paint the finishing glaze will take it out (not really a "glaze" but a fine polish). Will be doing some pics for sure, but well you know how that goes (yeah I'm still working on those other ones lol).

Going to use the following on it after washing........
Pinnacle XMT clay + ONR at clay lube dilution
WG Finishing Glaze (unless I really need TSR, hope not or it will be both products due to black car)
WG DGPS
possibly Pinnacle SS II if I have time/feel like it on Sunday after the 12 hour cure
 
Happy Friday Alex!

A little late to the party but I think I made it?????

I have had the week from hell and its not over yet!

I have been on the road almost all week, well really all week and its not over yet....I have to work tommorrow not happy bout it cause its a 2 hour drive 1 way.....and I've been doing it all week.

I put in 65 hours this week and 30 hrs or so was just travel.....I'm wiped out and it starts again next week!

all I want to do is crawl into the shop and polish something but that is not going to happen...arrrrrrghhghh.

anyhoo hope ya'll have a great weekend!

Ok I "lied". Pics didn't happen, got started way later than I wanted and didn't have time. Also "cheaped out" and went with the spray sealant version instead of the "normal" DGPS. Also realized I can't do SS II on Sunday because well I'm not getting up again at 6am to take the gf to work just to put a couple coats on lol.
