I got in to work yesterday not knowing that I was going to get an early gift from work. I found out that they are going to take away the retirement pensions from the management employees. I happen to be one of the 50,000 that are affected by this. So now, I am working strictly for a paycheck, I...

I am going to be detailing my Dad's 69 Corvette pretty soon. The car is LeMans Blue with original paint. it only has 33,xxx original miles on it. Beautiful car, 427/435hp. He bought it original in late 1968 when he got home from Vietnam. Here are my questions. The car has original paint and I...

I ordered some Poorboy's, I ordered some Poorboy's. I just thought that I would say that. I am really anticipating their arrival. I am going to get right to work when they get here.

I am going to make the plunge into Poorboys products. I have hear so many good things about them and I have a reason to try them now. I have a spot on my car that was left by bird droppings. I have tried to remove it with Klasse AIO and Meguairs Scratch X, no luck. I do not have a PC, but my...

I found this article on cnn.com. With the disaster in Louisianna and Mississippi it looks like gas is going to go higher and higher. Hybrid cars keep looking better and better. http://money.cnn.com/2005/08/31/news/gas_prices/index.htm?cnn=yes

I have a spot on my hood where bird droppings have etched the paint. I am not sure how long it was on there, I just noticed it when I backed the car out today. I don't usually drive the car during the week. My question is, what are my options. I tried Klasse AIO and Meguairs Scratch X with no...

My daughter and son are avid swimmers. My daughter is only 9 and she is going to Junoir Olympics in 2 weeks. She is unbelievable. But that is not what I am here to ask. I have a 2005 Toyota Tacoma with the TRD Sport Package. The seats look like they have a mesh type of cloth on them. See the...

I have a problem with a mark left by bird droppings. I can feel this spot in the paint. I am going to try and remove it with polishes, hopefully it will work. My question, how does SSR3 stack up to Meguiars DACP? Are they about the same. I have been wanting to go with Poorboys for some time now...

I have a spot on my hood after a bird got it. It was only on there for a day and it really did some damage. What can I do to get it off. I have tried a few things, nothing too abrasive. Any help would be appreciated. Do you think that I am going to have to color sand?

I took my Volvo in for service (oil change and stuff like that). I instructed them to not wash the car. I had to leave it over night due it being done late and I was not available. I was at work the next day and my wife went to pick it up with my mom. When she got there she went to the service...

I got tired of paying so much for gas here in California that I had to get rid of the Avalanche. The lift and the 4WD got me about 12mpg on a good day. I went out on Sunday night and picked this up. It is a 2005 Toyota Tacoma Prerunner with the TRD Sport package. It has a 4.0 V6 that puts out...

I am trying to decide whether or not I should remove the S60, 2.5T, and Volvo badge from the back of my car. I like the clean look, but I am not sure on this car. What do you think?

I am seriously considering ordering some SSR 2,2.5, and 1. I am wondering if these can be applied by hand. I assume so, but I always see poeple applying them with a PC. I know I may not achieve the same results by hand, but I don't have a PC.

Have any of you ever used this on the interior? I got one tha other day from my wife and I love the way it works. It can pick up any dust without leaving any lint. It also can bend to get into tight spaces. I think you can pick them up at the grocery store for not too much. I would post a link...

The weather got bad. Now, this may not be a big deal fro some of you, but I live in Southern California. We usually are able to detail year round. I was so excited from the Victorias Winter Mystery Package arriving, I planned to shine up the truck and the car. I had also purchased Klasse AIO and...
