    Other Forums (non detail related)

    This may turn into a full blown rant, but here it goes. For the past 3 days I've been trying to join a forum dedicated to comic/toy collectors of a specific brand. Its clearly stated you will be banned from the site for talking bad about them anywhere on the web so I can't say any more than that...

    Screaming Yellow Mustang

    I recently ran my annual giveaway on Facebook, and this was the winner this year. I do this car several times a year, but its normally just basic wash/wax/interior kind of stuff. I polished it all out around this time last year with Poorboys Pro Polish and it looked incredible. The owner won a...

    Buying in Bulk

    This has been covered before, but since the change over and all of the new members, I figured I would get a fresh perspective on the topic. Here's my dilemma. Being entirely self employed and working 7 days a week, I go through chemicals faster than I can buy them. I've always purchased those...

    Surf City Garage

    I noticed at one of our Walmarts last night that they started carrying this product line. Ive heard good things over the years about it, but didnt spring for any of it. Their paste wax is HUGE, but most of it was small portions and way overpriced imo. Any experiences with this line?

    Removing scratches from glass

    I have a friend who does a lot of work with fine glass and crystal. For whatever reason, a lot of this stuff gets sandblasted. From the way he describes, when the glass is wiped down, it gets these fine scratches that are impossible to avoid. Apparently these are very high dollar pieces for...

    Pontiac Solstice 25hr Detail

    A friend of mine contacted me about detailing his wife's Solstice. It was a gift from him to her, and it is their baby. He wanted this thing CLEAN. He wasn't too concerned with the paint as much as the rest of the car. In fact, he told me he wasnt even worried about any sort of correction. Clean...

    What camera do you use?

    I'm in the market for a new camera and was wondering what you guys use. So many great write ups being done these days, and many of the pics look incredible. Feel free to show off some of your best photography with said camera :inspector: Also, any opinions on the Nikon CoolPix L120?

    Tornado hits close to home

    Yesterday morning, a F4 tornado flattened Harrisburg Illinois, a town I grew up just a few miles from. I worked at a few places there over the years, one being a body shop that I was told isn't there anymore. I have a lot of family there, thankfully all survived. Sadly, not all were so lucky...

    3 Classic Car Wetsanding Projects (pic heavy)

    I was contacted a couple weeks ago by a builder/trader of classic cars, and one of my best clients, about doing a series of survivor cars. Some of them have had very light restos, some are as original as they come. Lots of wetsanding, full paint corrections, trim restorations, etc was discussed...

    Chrysler Concorde Restoration Detail

    I started this project a couple weeks ago, working on it in between priority jobs. Its a Chrysler Concorde that was owned by a little old lady since it was new. While that sounds good in theory, what many people dont realize is many little old ladies could give 2 craps about anything other than...

    250K mile Silverado Correction

    This truck was recently purchased by a friend of mine who had been after me to "buff a few scratches out". The ok was given by my boss to use the shop, and I knew I had 8 hours to get it done in. It was covered in dirt and mud when it arrived, so I still couldnt really get a good look at the...

    BFWD troubles

    Yesterday was the first time I got to use BFWD on a dark color. I've used it on several light colors, and on my red bike and helmet. Each time I got nothing but great results. However, on yesterdays navy blue Silverado, this stuff streaked so badly I was afraid I was going to loose my mind...
