    Taking things to a new level for me

    I am NOT a pro. I am NOT done with this car. I am just a kid (a 34 year old kid) who likes to take care of his car. Which wasn't my car until recently, my grandmother passed almost two years ago and left her car to whoever needed it. My cousin had a need for a second car for awhile, and then...

    Candyman

    So my wife got some cotton candy on the way out of Golden Corral tonight. The kids ate theirs. She just kinda stuck hers on the window rolled partway down. When she rolled the window back up, it stuck. 5 of 7 kids bothered to pose with it. Of course, this is the reason I keep Stoner IG and...

    Turtle Wax Headlight Lens Restorer

    I FINALLY got around to doing the headlights on the Durango. After driving to/from Hillsboro at night and not being able to see anything other than fifty feet of road in front of me, I had to do something. Couldn't afford new capsules ($150/pair aftermarket or $250+ OEM). Still don't own a...

    Official "I hate fixing steering columns" thread

    I haven't been on the forums in awhile because work has kept me busy. Right now I'm ftp'ing so much garbage in the background that I have a few minutes where I can't do anything else. Work has gotten to the point I don't do anything else. So the project car I bought a month ago is sitting in...

    Spring Cleaning has begun...

    My car may be a complete pile, but having the warm enough weather, the products ready to use, and the girls in daycare, means I have a chance to make the best of what I've got. So here's the best I can do as far as before (2/27/10) and after (today 3/18/10). I will post more tomorrow when I...

    Putting a website together...

    I have to admit, this is a shameless plug for a website creator website. I'm not speaking in no double negatives either. Or something like that. I have been playing all day on Wix.com with their flash website editor. I have figured out I can use this for my inventory pictures and not have to...

    Tarminator and Stoner Products at Summit

    Almost every product Stoner sells is available at summitracing.com ! Includes the spray waxes and the interior foaming stuff! $4.99 a can for most things. Cheap shipping, too! For $21 or so I got 4 cans and it showed up 3 days later to Texas from Ohio. GROUND shipping and I ordered on a...

    After nearly 20 years...these wheels need help!

    I have two of the wheels off the van and plan to do them two at a time. This poor beater van probably doesn't have a lot of life left in it, but I have about a week to get it cleaned up before the title comes in the mail and I decide to keep it, sell it, or scrap it. So there's these wheels...

    Wife's truck (what a mess)

    Here are some "before" pictures from a couple of months ago, shows the worn bumper trim, dirty wheels, things like that. The truck was five times as dirty as this, windows dusty and sappy, lots of gravel dust from the beltline down, we live in a small town in the country, can't really complain...

    Long time lurker, first time poster

    I joined this forum a while back and got too involved in another similar forum to spend any time here. Well that other board went to the great car wash in the sky, so here I am looking for more information. I have several purposes here, the first is to learn as much as I can about detailing...

    Sure, why not

    New from Texas. Just here to see who likes what products and how they use them best. Probably not the typical detailer here but I do try and keep my family car and truck clean. At least when it's not iced over like it is now.
