$165. 9mm throw DA polisher. 18v Li ion. 400 watts. Run time 45-60 mins with “heavy use”.

Was really surprised to find something unique from Griots for touch up paint that actually works. Anyone that’s ever messed with touch up paint knows that little paint bottle with the brush and pen in it is almost completely useless. That brush just sucks. The pen even worse. It always seems to...

So, anyone with leather sport seats with the big side bolsters knows the leather finish on the bolsters tends to wear. For whatever reason, it’s just a vulnerable place. BMW M owners have been dealing with this for 20 years + and that’s kinda just how it goes. Albeit not terrible, it’s...

Saw this & it caught my interest for a bunch of reasons. First, comes with 5" hook & loop BP. Second, sanding run time is about an hour. Third - I haven`t used this, but own several Milwaukee lithium ion cordless tools and they are quite powerful. Fourth, price is reasonable - $120 for tool only...

Review: Flitz Büff Ball & Flitz Metal Polish Polishing metal...Who knows? Not me. I don’t know anything about it...I found some solid antique copper bowls with “patina” - & as a little project tried to make them shiny. Flitz seems to be legit for polishing uncoated metal on cars. So I...

So, anyone know anything about polishing brass? On a whim I just bought this: Really not sure why. Other than I thought I could make it super shiny again. I`m pretty sure it`s brass - hopefully not plated brass - but really dunno? Was thinking about PC w/ a 3" compounding pad and a heavy cut...

So, I have been putzing around (detailing) with my new truck for the past 3 days... I picked it up in the snow / rain - so I really couldn`t judge the condition of the paint. It was pretty filthy on the lot - so I actually let the dealer wash it, but I told them no tire shine on anything. I had...

Recently, I`ve become obsessed with the idea of owning a truck. So, to make a very long story short, after researching trucks to death, I traded in my 01 Pathfinder for a brand new Nissan Frontier Pro 4X with luxury package in arctic blue (dealer`s pic) ... It came down to the Pro 4X or a...

Specifically - Nissan. May be buying a new truck (2016/17 Frontier Pro 4X) & may be getting white. Dunno if ss paint is something necessarily to avoid - just like to know what I`m getting if I choose white. TIA. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

So, the rear main seal (RMS) started recently leaking on my old Pathfinder. It`s 17 years old - so I guess it`s about due for something to start leaking. I replaced the valve cover, intake, plenum, lower oil pan gasket, & PCV valve myself in the past 6 months - all were weeping slightly For...

This is to be the beginning of a long term review of the above mentioned paint coating. This is just the start of the review, as I have just installed the paint coating 2 weeks ago. So, in this part, there is no beading shots or no long term results. Just my initial thoughts. I have been turned...

"Mckeesport" LoL *** Can a mod fix? Won`t let me edit tittle. So, it`s sort of hard to review a rinseless wash and make it interesting. Basically, this will be pretty short. I`m going assume everyone here knows what a rinseless wash is and pretty much realizes that most of them out there seem...

I may not be up on ALL the latest and greatest... But, are there currently any RWs available that leave nothing behind? I know Meg`s used to make one, right? Is there anyone making one now? Something you could use on a coated car and go directly to a coating booster product. I`m trying to do a...

This is a review of Dodo Juice`s Ferro Lube, from their Supernatural line. In case you are not familiar with this product, basically it`s a clay lube and iron remover product (think Iron X) in one. It`s a unique product in the USA to the best of my knowledge. Why nobody else is making a...

I bought this tub of Souverän maybe 7 years ago. I still love this stuff. 10 Reasons Why: 1. Tub last forever. Hardly requires any wax to wax a car. 2. Application is literally effortless. So is removal. Takes about as long to apply as a spray wax. Spreads far and easy. It`s very oily on...
