Probably hard to see. But ive only had her since June 1st and only have had a garage since July 3rd. I've managed to get the holograms off but the swirls I can't make a dent in. Probably product. Meg's ultimate compound on an orange LC pad.

I can try and get some better shots in the sun tomorrow. And yes I love this car. 171000 miles and runs perfect and the color is black in some light, gray in others and even blue at times. Sorry ill quit gushing on it.

It's got to have hard paint then, we will take care of it. It is a beautiful car. I'm very fond of those older BMW's.
 
We'd love to have you Keith. Kyle_Elantra is also from MD.

Yay! Just requested to have that day off at work. Shouldn't be a problem. I'm a total newbie & I have never held a polisher before ...lol I am ordering a PC tomorrow together with a bunch of stuff like D151, Optimum Hyper Compound & Polish Sprays, Optimum metal polish & a few other new to me detailing neccesities). I can bring the PC and Megs D151 and the optimum sprays.

If the weather is good I will ride this to VA and put the stuff in my tailbag:

My suggestion would be to save from the PC by getting yourself a HF DA for $50+. Use the extra money you save on other products. D151 is :dblthumb2: and paired with the MF pads, it's my favorite all-in-one combo.

Sweet machine btw! I hope it's Sunny here in Hamilton so you could ride.

These towels as well as several others will be available for trial at the next detailing event

You might leave home without any! I have a 530 stashed and it's my favorite towel thus far.

Yeah I've thought about the Chicago Electric HF DA and I have a HF coupon I could use. Just not sure about it and I want something that won't leave me thinking or wanting to buy another higher quality soon after. Maybe its just in my head for peace of mind because I have seen the HF DA thread and there's lots of good stuff said about it.

I'm thinking of D151 on the bike followed by a carnauba layer. I have a GG 3inch on my wishlist but I could do it by hand until then.

Anyone who wants to check out the HF DA, I'll be bringing mine on the 24th so you can compare it to any others there. I would call my Chicago Electric unit "well seasoned" to say the least.
 
I'm back in nova full time now, where is this meet up on the 24th?
I'm also the sole US distributor of a very high-end product line now ;)

Understood. If you want reassurance, there's nothing wrong with the HF DA. In fact it has more power and is less bulky than the PC. Have used it before I got my GG6 & Rupes. I can throw carpet attachments and the 3 inch backing plate for smaller areas.

:dblthumb2: What about the FLEX? I've played with both but I'm sure other members would like to make their own opinions using both machines.

What the?! That's great news but what happened to GTechniq?

The meetup will be held in Hamilton, VA as the past two gatherings unless another location opens up.

That's not far from me. Long story with gtech, we can discuss at the meet up
 
Fair enough. Hope all is well. :cheers:
 
Do we have a headcount for the 24th officially? Need to figure out how many ribs to marinate!
