HI,

Detailing has become my new addiction.

My daughter starts Pharmacy school next week and I wanted to dress up her 99 Accord that she has owned for 6 years and washed once.

I washed it twice and then waxed it, and now every dent and scratch shows up like a pimple on the end of your nose. haha The interior, well, you could grow Okra on the floor, due to the amount of dirt.

We dropped her off at her dorm today, and her Accord stood out like a sore thumb among the new cars these kids were driving, so we left her my wife's Tribute and brought hers home to clean it up a little more this week.

I have a Dewalt 849X, and a GG6. I was in the carpet and upholstery cleaning business for 13 years and kept my upholstery cleaning machine when I sold that business, so the interior will clean up very well.

I'm gonna have to go local for my pads because we go back up this Friday for a introductory ceremony and will give her the car back. All I want to do is remove some of the scratches, polish, wax and clean the interior.

have Megs 82 and 7 I plan on using if time allows.

Anyhow, I have been lurking for a week and watching Mike's Youtube video's that I find very interesting, and informative. He is a great host! Wish his classes were closer.

I hope she thinks so. It is going to take a while to clean the inside. Maybe longer than the outside.
 
Welcome to ago! Congrats on your daughter getting into rx program. Is she going to Monroe or Xavier?

At least it's healthy and if you're into car it's fun...

M82 is a fine cut polish, not a lot of correction power but for a daily driver it will clean things up real well and certainly enough for application of wax. If you apply it using the rotary clean your pad often, it's pretty oily and the buffing and wipe-off can get kind of gummy. Any swirls left by using it with a rotary can be remove by re-polishing with the same product and your DA Polisher.

Love seeing lurkers transition to active members. Thank you for the kind words, anything I do right is because Yancy or video guy can make anyone look good.

Thursday Night Live Broadcasts are an option instead of an actual class, we tend to go over lots of tips and techniques plus showcase a lot of products, cool cars and sometimes people.
