If anyone is interested in going here is the info. Detail Weekend 2015 NEW FORMAT This will be my first year going. A good opportunity to learn proper use of some polishers and products. And some excellent food to go with it. I was told the Palasades mall is very close by. So my wife and...

Tuff Stuff not only removed that mulch mess in my Explorer last week, but today I found another use. I seem to keep getting grease on my jeans every weekend. Today after working on my lawn tractor.. I noticed grease on my Levi's. Sprayed it on the grease.. Let it foam... Wiped with an old rag...

I dropped a new piece of clay after completing my Edge. I had just swept the garage floor but it definitely picked up dust. I didn't see any visible sand nor did it didn't feel gritty but not worth chancing. Never allowing it to touch paint again would be the safest route. Do I toss it or...

Pulled out my Weber grill yesterday and hit it with the PB heavy duty metal polish. It removed all the spots on the stainless with just a terrycloth towel. Another PB winner.

Finally had a chance to try my new polishers and Poxy on my 2010 Edge. I was limited on time so did the following: washed w/ PB slick n suds with a pre treatment of bug squash. Partially Dried with my blaster sidekick Wiped with spray and gloss Clayed with PB clay and new clay lube (another nice...

Well I took advantage of the mulch sale at Home Depot. Ten bags at a time as to not damage my Ford Explorer with new rear struts. FIRST RUN... light dry bags On the second run.... heavy and wet. I get back thinking the rear strut blew. What's that black stuff dripping out? The guy managed to...

I purchased the BF coating kit. Any suggestions on how long to leave it cure before knocking down the high spots on a section. I was hoping Ray had some tips if he did one last weekend.

I'm holding off on the Rupes 21 for now. Owning the Flex 3401, Rupes 15 and mini..I really want to try a lightweight rotary for small areas. I figured small pads 1,2,3" and could do some metal polishing with it too. With the 3403/ or 14 I could try large pads. I really don't feel like...

My neighbor recently had his car painted at Maaco. I don't think your getting a 2 stage paint job for $1000. He says he's going to have to ask.. He thinks it's clear coat. (I doubt it though) He is asking me to detail it. I could give it a mild polish (maybe some Ultimate Polish to enhance...

Has anyone used both yet to give their opinion on what they prefer or differences? I have half a bottle of PWS left so wanted to put an order in soon.

Well I just opened up my last bar of clay so wanted to get another bar or try a towel. What does everyone prefer to use? I was considering trying a Speedy Surface Prep Towel or comparable.

Are the 5.5" B&S pads sold by Autopia recessed for the backing plate. The photo in the store doesn't show that but maybe things have changed.

Considering HD Speed for using as a one stepper follow-up for returning customers after the harsh winter. Is this a sealant with mild chemical cleaners or does it have abrasives compared to HD Polish? I also want to try Poxy on my vehicles. Anyone topped Speed with Poxy? Holding off on any...

This will be my 4th year using DAs. I'm interested in knowing if it's safe to use mild polishes yearly. Last year, a few family and friends vehicles , I used Poorboys Polish w sealant. My vehicles get a PB pro polish with a polishing pad then a sealant topped with some carnauba. As long as I...

With no rotary experience, I would eventually like to get setup with 1/2/3" pads for those small areas. Does the pe8s minimum speed of 1300 have people steering more towards the pe14?

If you had a chance to get a Rupes 21 and already own a Flex 3401 what would you do? One will have to go , I dont' want both. Some help? Decisions,Decisions I did sell my Griot's machines last week. Now own the Rupes 15, Rupes 75E, and Flex 3401.

Anyone see any new products that will be available soon?

I just wanted input on whether to do the washer mod on my Rupes 15 and Mini 75e. Does it really make that much improvement if you do? I read you can use a backing plate spacer used on a PC.

It may be early yet but could someone post the live feed link when it's up and running.

OK.. I've decided to get the Rupes mini with the Rupes pads. I was going to use my Poorboys polishes for now. Or is it suggested to go Rupes system. Will the softest pad be good for applying sealants too? I was thinking 2 of each foam ⁴" for now. Or are there ones mostly used over others...
