I am addicted!

[Sol on fire]

I am not even in the detailing buisness (YET) but I am addicted to detailing! I live on this site even though I don't post often. I have learned so much and I have been spending soooo much $$! I now have a huge investment in detailing supplies! Among everything else I have the PortaCable DA, the newest Flex DA and my new Makita rotary arrives tomorrow. I am getting ready to sign up for the January detailing classes and I am planning on attending the Detail Fest! I just recieved another order today from AG. THANK YOU AG FOR THE FREE GIFTS YOU SENT!!
I have been married for 33 years and she is not HAPPY!!! :buffing:

From personal experience I can attest; it's very easy to become addicted to this here. It sort of grabs a hold of you a little at a time and before you know it..BAM...you're a detailing junkie! :laughing:

I have to admit though allot of it is not my fault. Meghan keeps posting special deals on products; 50% this, buy one get one free offers, Christmas specials from SANTA.... So you can see I'm sorta helpless. So I guess you might say this is Meghan's fault! :laughing:

Definitely make sure your taking care of her car too! My gf just found out how much I spent on the new Flex PE14-2 rotatory and she said that her car is first one to get polished up! Fine by me! I can test my skills on her car first and get my technique down.

Always have to take care of your old (or young) lady! Especially once you start having a package arrive from AG every other day!

Maybe AG should add a spouse "sampler" order option to provide the spouse.

I like that idea! Maybe some flowers or chocolates! So, every time an AG package arrives you got something to give to your significant other! :xyxthumbs:

A lot of us here are simply hobbyist detailers as well. This crap is WAY to addicting. I am always wanting to try some new wax or sealant or QD or etc etc etc.

My fiancee just shakes her head. She understands now that I took her to a car show and she saw a 1963 Vette and said "Papi, why does that car look so new when it is so old?". I simply replied, "because they take car of it like I take care of my car." She always wondered why I was so worried about my car. Even explaining that it is one in a little over 300 Cobra verts that year painted in Mineral Grey did not help. Her seeing a car over 40 years old that looked new helped a LOT.

I can't even go to stores and get high quality stuff. I mean I can get the typical Megs, Mothers, Turtle Wax, Eagle One, etc that they sell at AutoZone, VIP, Walmart, but other than that I have to go online to get my good stuff!

And I've definitely wasted days and weeks just reading posts on here. I work at a computer all day so I'm constantly on here checking out different threads and reading different articles!

Jason,

You're starting to remind me of ME!! :laughing:

I was in Walmart today and walked through the automotive "car care" section and can't believe people actually buy that stuff...................then I remembered I used too!!

Not all the stuff sold there is bad. Allot of the Meguiar's line is pretty good as well as the Mothers line but the products I have now are light years ahead of what's available there...

 

[Shane731]

I feel you buddy. I probably have enough stuff to detail a small fleet of cars for a lifetime, but that doesn't stop me from buying more! Im the MAN

That is absolutely a win win situation.:xyxthumbs:

Can you guys imagine how much trouble we would all be in if AG became a franchise, or a nationwide chain.

You walk in the front door (very shiny, of course) and are handed a Flex and a sample of some new, super product and allowed to test it on the hood of a new Lamborghini Gallardo.

Then you can walk up and down the isles and see EVERYTHING that AG has to offer.

And if you have time, there are the never ending demos in the "detailing studio" out back.

After you have spent three or four hours in the store and filled up your shopping cart you go to check out. But first you have to pick out your selection of free samples. One for every hundred dollars that you have in the cart.

Then you realize that you could have gotten even more stuff.

Why?

It's your birthday (10% off)

And AG is having a huge sale and everything is another 20% off.

Plus, since you are in one of their stores there is no shipping.

Now, try to explain THAT to the wife.

 

[Rsurfer]

My excuse to my wife is, if you don't try it, you will never know if it works.

 

[BobbyG]

Use reverse psychology!

"All of this stuff was on sale and look how much I saved!" rops:

That was easy!! :laughing:
