    OT. hobbies, toys, money pits U detail

    Im sure this thread has gone around many times before, but one more time cant hurt. I just got done detailing my week old YZ 250 f. It had a small amount of dust on it, and I couldnt stand it. I spent a few minutes polishing my helmet. Then the bug hit me, and I had to finish pin-stripping...

    Cyclo users

    Just curious on how much polish you put on both pads before polishing, I thought I used very little, but I always have polish to spare when Im finished with a panel.

    AIO/TOL light cut

    I was on the phone with TOL and was advised not to use AIO if I was going to use High temps light cut. Light cut supposedly has a solvent already in it, and would only be adding more steps. Just curious if any has used this combo, or heard anything similar.

    OT: A little Irony

    I was watching MTV's Cribs, and was watching this guy that an Escalade (?s.p.) From the shots they showed you could see ALOT of swirls, seems like if you had 55k to blow on a made over Tahoe, and millions to spend on a house, you could atleast afford a decent detail on your ride.

    Question of the year

    Im dropping into TOL store, and Im going to buy a polisher. I have always polished by hand, but as my business is picking up, and I get worse cars I need something to save my shoulders, and speed up the process. I have little experience with powered polishers, so I have set made a deal with...

    TOL light cut polish
