Has anyone other than Brad B. used airbrushing to repair paint chips? I saw his write up and I really want to try it. I've got some nasty chips on my fender, the previous owner of my car rolled the fenders and the paint is all chipped where they were rolled. Since these are such large chips...

I decided to be 'efficient' saturday and detail my new car and my old car at the same time. Full detail, clay bar and everything. Now that my arm still refuses to move even after 2 days, I never even finished because it got too cold. I brought out the halogen lights and was detailing in the...

I just had my front bumper painted, i asked the guy how long i have to wait before waxing and he told me that the paint is already dry and i can go ahead and wax it immediatly if i want. Does that sound right? I thought you always had to wait at least 30 days?
