My apartment office has washing supplies for residents to use. I went to wash my car today and found them sitting outside, ready for me to use. Thankfully, I have my own stuff to use...

I wanted to get the Z detailed before it turned too cold. Process: Wash w/ Meguiar's Gold Class Clay w/ Clay Magic Optimum Compound via LC Purple Foam Wool Pad to remove some waterspots Optimum Polish via LC White Pad Meguiar's #21 via LC Blue Pad Tires dressed with Number One...

I have water spots on the roof and hood of my car. They have been there ever since I bought the car and I cannot seem to make them go away. The car has been polished a couple of times, usually with Optimum Polish via a white LC pad on the PC, and then one time I tried some Optimum Compound via...

Like the title says, I can't find it. Anyone have any suggestions where I might find some? I would really like a site that sells Meg's and Optimum products because I need some #21, Final Inspection, and OP. Thanks!

I got to use my Flex for the first time this weekend. I was impressed with the correction ability compared to the PC; however, sometimes it seemed to just glide smoothly over the paint, and other times I felt as though I was fighting with it. Am I doing something wrong? Also I noticed that...

Can't wait to test it out. Also got a bunch of LC pads :)

Been working on this for a buddy...it was a mess. For the interior, I removed the seats and then I vacuumed and shampooed the carpets and seats. Hatch: Water, just after the carpets...it looked the same after doing the seats. It looked like coffee :eek: Wheels...

Wasn't really sure where to put this, but I wanted to share. I've always wanted a picture of my car on a puddle of water, but never had a good opportunity to do so...until last night. I drove over to a parking deck to play with the camera and it had plenty of standing water :cool:

My buddy is in graduate school in Pittsburgh and needed his car cleaned up after it experienced a Pittsburgh winter. Thankfully, BMWs have a relatively soft clearcoat and it wasn't too bad to work on. Process: Wash with dish washing soap Clay with Clay Magic Optimum Polish via an LC...

I got to detail these two cars yesterday for a buddy of mine just in time for ZDayZ. The Evo is still practically brand new so it got some SFX-2 topped with SFX-1. The Z got Optimum Polish and also topped with SFX-1 (because I only have one finishing pad). All tires were dressed with Number...

My car was last polished with some Optimum Polish and topped with Meguiar's #21. It has held up well, but I've read that the Optimum products perform better on a rotary, and I am using a PC. I'm thinking about ordering some Sonus products and was thinking about SFX 1-3. Would that be a...

I might have put this in the wrong spot. I couldn't find a Photography forum or subforum, but maybe I didn't look hard enough. Mods, feel free to move if necessary. My buddy Eric took these today. They are some of his early attempts at HDR. We had a pretty good turnout for our meet...

Since I'd already detailed the Z and dad's truck, I figured I might as well clean up mom's Lexus while my parents were out of town since it's so nice outside. Overall, the paint on the Lexus is in pretty good shape. It's got a few swirls in it, especially on the hood, but I'm tired of using...

I spent yesterday and today detailing my dad's truck. The truck is nearly 10 years old and has never really had a good polish. It gets a lot of use out in the woods when we go fishing, it's usually parked outside, and I'm sure it's been run through many car washes. I'm looking for some...

I'd like some feedback from non-350Z owners about the Nismo graphics. I currently have numerous Nismo products on my car...exhaust, intake, headers, flywheel, front lip, spoiler, and rims. I'm debating putting the Nismo graphics on the car to complete the look (aside from the side skirts and...
