Hi guys, I've hit a dead end on this particular problem so I'm turning to you all. I have a 2010 FX4 (F150) with only 5K on the dial. When it sits over night it develops a strong smell in the cabin, musty I guess you would call it. I took it to the dealer almost hoping for them to find...

Hello, Just wanting to know a few things about DACP. Being it's a cleaner, I take it that it will remove Zaino when used with a PC? Also, it's a bit more aggresive than FI-II.... correct? Finally, would a yellow pad be ok to use with it? I only buff out the paint once a year on the...

Just picked up this 04' Dakota two weeks ago. I haven't done a whole lot to it yet:( other than throw a coat of NXT on it. I plan to do the spring workup on it right after I get the mustang done.....which I will hopefully start this weekend! First picture Second picture My...

Got these put on last week! The wheels are 18X9 bullits wrapped in Toyo Proxes TS1's 265X35X18 up front and 275X35X18 out back. Zaino :xyxthumbs Pics were taken with a Canon G5, which I am still learning how to use.

I have ordred new wheels ( 18X9 Chrome Bullits ) for the car and was wondering how to protect them? Zaino ? They won't be put on until spring and will either be wrapped with Nitto's or BF Goodwrench G-Force tires. Here is a pic of the wheels and a pic of my car they are going on...

I thought I would wash the mustang and take a few pics. It hasn't seen any zaino since early October but isn't driven all that much this time of year :) #1 #2 #3 - so so pic, kinda blurry ( sorry ) finally

Well I think I experienced my worst nightmare yestersay. I was merging on the interstate and I look up ahead and to my left where the other interstate merges in and what do I see. A cement mixer. At that point traffic starts to jam up ( 255 and 64 for those around STL ). So I am forced to...

Hi guys/gals, I have a neighboor who I am starting to convert over to the autopia lifestyle :) He has a 3rd gen camero with 4K original miles on it, needless to say it's his baby. So my question is this, the car has some vinyl stripes around the induction cowl. I know that taping is...

I have yet to get my car dry before getting water spots. Am I really that slow or are others having some problems as well. I do have a black car but do wash it in the shade. Currently I am first using the sheeting action then using a absorber to get remaining large water droplets off (...

I have a funny story for you guys/gals. Since coming here the past month I have learned soo much, thank you. Now to the story. I was working getting the bugs out of my air induction scoop's grill and my sister came over and asked what I was doing, I told her. She walked around the car and...

Hi, I am looking for a professional detailer or a fellow autotopian with a rotary to do some work for me. I have a new black mustang GT that needs some swirls, yes I know it's new, and 3 rock scratches taken out. any help is appreciated

Hi all I picked up a few MF detailing towels ( the small ones ) and just wondered how to care for them when they get dirty. Thanks!

Hi all ! I just picked up my clearcoat black 03' mustang GT the other day and have a few questions. First off, this car is not my daily driver. Ok, would you all recommend doing a poish and wax right off the start? Also, can you recommend a good spray on product to keep it's show room shine...
