I know this has nothing to do with detailing. My MTD riding mower blew the engine after 6 years. I had 2 blown head gaskets and other issues as well. I am looking at a John Deere lawn tractor and was wondering if anyone else here has them and are they all they are hyped up to be. Tell me please...

I recently buffed a 1994 Mustang GT. The paint was in real bad shape. Swirls and whitesh looking water spots on dark green paint. I started with PB's SSR1 and then PB's SSR2.5. Whitish spots came back though. I used these with a orange LC pad. I then went local and got some Meguairs #4 Heavy Cut...

Price of a case of CD2 Enigine Detailer $32.50. Price of last Autogeek order $80.00. Price of 2 new Toyota oil filters $10.44. Price of 5 Quarts Mobil 1 Syn oil $21.95... Price of a well kept truck.... priceless! All in the past week! I gotta cut my internet cable....Ugh!

I have a question about the quick disconnect on the spray nozzle of the Gilmour foam gun. I was wanting to use a Dramm shutoff valve instead of the pistol grip sprayer that comes with foamgun. I was trying to remove the quick disconnect from the end of the pistol grip spray head and it seems...

I was outside where I work and see this plume of dust down the railroad tracks where I work. I watched for a while and noticed this plume inching up the tracks towards the plant. The dust plume is blowing to the side of the tracks that our plant is on. I see this big machine with a large steel...

I searched the forum for this as I had started a thread a month or so ago and it would not come up with it. Oh Well. Any way. I have used this for a couple of months and it is one of the best I've used for dusting and drying off your paint. I read on Autogeek Forum that Killrwheels was using...

Someone I work with came in with their tires dressed with this product. I was impressed enough to ask what it was. His brother works for Ashland Oil who makes Eagle One and gave him a sample to try. I went to Advance and they had a special bottle that gave you 32 oz with a free tire swipe for...

I was just wanting to know if EX-P has better shine and durability than EX. I have a bottle of EX and it is real good stuff. I top with multiple coats of Natty's Blue. Being that I use the Natty's Blue anyway, I really do not need the short cut of having the carnauba in the sealant. My question...

I ordered a gallon of this to try on wheel wells and black plastic trim and mouldings and the black plastic cowl and door weather striping. It is a silicone based material that has a pleasant odor. I sprayed the wheel wells and used a sponge paint pad to apply to the cowl and weather...

Killrwheels over at the Autogeek forum recently came up with this as an aid to drying your car to reduce micro marring. He stated that he used a QD. I put in the product of my choice. After washing and when I start drying. I use a Ultimate Guzzler and Poorboy's Spray & Wipe by spritzing a...

Has anybody seen or used this new Chubby MF Towel. I ordered 6 for $9.62 just to see. That price was pretty good for a plush 16.5'' X 16.5'' towel. Check it out here..... http://64.49.225.2/product_p/mic_105_06.htm

I used this today mixed 4:1 and it works great. Meguiars suggest it not be used on uncoated or anodized aluminum wheels. Everything else is game on. I like that I can get 16 32oz bottles out of this which works out to 1.56 per bottle. It is a serious cleaner and you shoul read the cautions...

Since most of us take so much pride in our cars, I would like to know how well some of us take car of the maintenance like oil changes and the type of oil we use and intervals of oil changes. I love the Pennzoil Platinum oil. I think they offer better protection than the conventional oils. I...

I ordered some SG today from Autogeek. I like PP,NB,EXC. I had to give this stuff a try. I think this is like their QD. Is that correct. Any comments or suggestions on it's use? Should I order some Spray and Wipe to wipe down a dusty car? If my truck gets wet I usually wash it and not use a QD...

I bought some of this the other day to try while at the Wally World. It came with the applicator and it did give the tires a nice shine. It also had a lot of dust stick to the tire after driving. I might not have spread it thin enough. I will try it again and report back.
