    Boat detail: 1993 Armada open bow

    This is a boat detail I did as a present for my girlfriend's dad over a year ago. Process was done via PC since I don't have a Cyclo or Rotary. I used the Meguiar's fiberglass restoration kit primarily. Process was: 1) wash/dry 2) wet sand all blue exterior surfaces 3) wash/dry 4) #49...

    Annoying computer issue

    I have a Dell desktop with XP, and I have been tolerating an annoying problem for so long I can't remember when exactly it started. I have DSL through AT&T and it seems to "fall asleep" if I leave the computer for about an hour or more. When I return to the computer and try to load a webpage...

    So I graduated college... now what?

    I completed my BA in political science with a minor in economics. I never focused on a career path per se while in college because I was assuming the position of mental growth and development would justify studying what interests me. Now that has completed, and I need a CAREER not just another...

    19" LCD Widescreen Monitor

    My girlfriend told me since my 17" Sony Trinitron flat-screen CRT monitor bit the dust she'd replace my monitor as a graduation present. She gave me a budget of $300. I've been looking high and low across the Internet- newegg, tiger direct, Amazon.com... as well as at local stores such as...

    Had to vent- terrible class!

    I'm in my final quarter of undergraduate studies and I have a new economics professor at my college. Economics is my minor and I've gotten well over a B average in all my econ classes over the past four years. This new professor is teaching everything counter to what I have learned from...

    DVD Decoder

    So I install a new Pioneer DVD drive in a Dell desktop, close the case up and reboot, WHOOPS the computer cannot read "secondary 0 drive, secondary 1 drive" blah blah blah. I take it apart and have to remove the new DVD drive and set the jumper into secondary because it was set on master...

    I'm Through Using Bosch

    After having THREE Bosch pre-cat oxygen sensors go bad on me, I've decided that they are entitled to my money :nomore: The average life of them comes to less than 10,000 miles each! :angry

    GM Onyx Black... ARGH!

    I can have pics by tonight if that will help, but anyways I'm trying to attack some bird bomb etchings, water spots, minor swirls, and a few scratches and it seems nothing in my arsenal is making progress. Here is what I have tried thus far: Clay Magic Meg's #9- Meg's yellow polish pad...

    Dressing tires with RWL/WW

    I've searched for this before with no luck. I can clean a tire to perfection using APC or my preferred Bleach White and when I go to apply some dressing I find myself taking 3x longer to dress tires with raised white letters and white walls. If I go over the entire tire as if there was no...

    Any of you order QEW from Protectall?

    I'm sure there must be many of you that have ordered directly from the company Web-site. I ordered mine on the 7th and am still waiting for it. How long did it take you to get yours? I'm being impatient because I've never QEW'd before, and I am eager to hop on it!

    Can I use #2 with a PC?

    I was wondering if I could use #2 fine-cut cleaner and a yellow Meguiar's pad with my 7336 on my onyx black BC/CC, then follow it up with #9 to remove the hazing, then #7 then top it with a coat or two of #26? Or should I set aside the #2 since it says for rotary use only (bought it...

    Ahh yes... "the next step" in my detailing

    Lowes everyday low prices pushed me off the fence. I bought a 7336 for $109.99 and now I'm ready for some pads. I can't wait to practice with this thing on my hood (probably can't make it any worse- going to get a new cowl induction soon anyways:) ) :woot:
