    Echo Booming

    Hey everyone! My name's Dan Sherman. I used to be active on Autopia back in the day, but I've been MIA ever since college...happened. Being 1000 miles away from my car got in the way of detailing. So did drinking. LOL Anyhow, I'm currently interning for a small NYC market research/consulting...

    High School Seniors...Colleges?

    Hey all you other college-bound HS seniors out there...have you been hearing good/bad news from colleges? My scorecard's looking down and out so far. Applied to 13 colleges, heard from 8, only got into 3. Hell, I got waitlisted by a SAFETY. Just wondering how many of y'all are in the same...

    FK forums hacked again

    Wow, yet another Turkish hacker got in. I felt bad for FK1 the first two times, but you would think they would try to do some upgrades or something to bolster the security. Now it's just funny.

    '03 Jeep Grand Cherokee paint

    Just wondering if anyone who owns a last-generation Grand Cherokee would like to comment about the paint quality. I can't get my father's dark blue metallic to do what I want it to. Compounds, that normally don't dust, cake up and spit all over the place; polishes don't leave a squeaky...

    If you are confused about the CG QD's...

    I think I can help you out. The CG website gives too much information and is rather contradictory, but I have tried out all three now, so here are MY brief overviews and the situations in which each should be used: SYNTHETIC DETAILER: This has some cleaning ability, but it is certainly no...

    Sealant/Carnauba order

    I know it is always recommended that carnaubas go over sealants, not the other way around, and that sealants cannot be used over glazes. However, some people have fine results with particular sealants over particular glazes. Also, certain manufacturers say it is okay to layer sealant over...

    Review: CG Pro Detailer

    Well, I just got my order from our sponsor Danase for some CG stuff. I QD'd then applied Collinite to the Lexus ES today, so here's my take on Pro Detailer. Product Name: Chemical Guys Pro Detailer w/Carnauba Picture and Manufacturer Claims: Here Test Conditions: Silver Lexus ES300...

    Where have all the deals on PB's gone?

    I went to compare prices on some PB products I want by the spring recently and I noticed Autogeek and PAC, which normally have good prices on the whole Poorboy's range, are selling everything at retail prices. I went down the distributor list and found that only one (sportscarcare.com) had...

    Which Chemical Guys QD?

    I am looking to try one of the CG QD's to replace S&W as a waterless wash-type product, as Danase will be carrying 16oz. bottles soon. Which one is the best cleaning QD? I know PRO-DETAILER states itself as a waterless wash, but EXTREME SYNTHETIC has a lubricity rating of "9". Thanks in...

    Optimum N-R W&S used as a QD?

    Has anyone used N-R W&S as a QD yet (6 oz. to 1 gallon water)? This could make a very economical QD, but how good is the cleaning ability? Is it S&W levels, or more like a typical QD? TIA.

    My thoughts on PwS

    I know a few people have already done their reviews on PB's upcoming Polish-with-Sealant, but I thought I would just add my findings with it. At first I was a little bit disappointed when I found that it was one of the 20th day specials because I just bought a whole new line of polishes and...
