    First TIme PC User

    Today was the first day I got to use my PC. I have been on the board for a long time but have strictly been doing things by hand. The light swirl marks were starting to build up so I figured I would get a PC. It turned out my GF bought me one for my birthday since I had been talking about it so...

    Who makes the best pad

    I just got my PC and have been reading through the forum to find who makes the best pad. Are CMA's lake country pads the best to get? I have read on the board that the Sonus SFX3 are not so great. How do the Sonus Das Pad stack up? Then there were some pads sold on another site someone posted...

    Just got a Porter Cable

    7424 for my birthday, from my wonderful girlfriend. Well the only pad it came with was a white pad glued to a plate. What is this pad good for? What other pads do I need. I am looking for the best pad to apply a polish like 1Z and AIO. The cars I am working on are, a 3 year old Boxster that...

    What did I do wrong?

    Turtle Wax Formula 2100 Wheel Cleaner

    My dad bought me a Turtle Wax car care kit for christmas. I never used any of the products and decided instead of having them sit around I would use the wheel cleaner. After washing the rims I used the wheel cleaner to clean up embedded brake dust. It actually worked pretty good. I have silver...

    Plexus plastic window cleaner review

    I bought a can of Plexus the other day and am amazed how much better it is to use than the Porsche window cleaner that you get with the car. It is miles ahead in ease of application and in the clarity it leaves. The Porsche cleaner stains hte fabric, is not easily applied, and leaves a powdery...

    Spots on hood and trunk

    I own an 8 month old boxster that live in the garage and has travelled 8,600 miles so far. The paint is perfect less some hairline scratches in the clear coat that are not visible unless looked at carefully against a bright source of light. In addition to this there are spots on the hood. These...
