Anyone have any fun automotive related projects they are working on this weekend? I spent last weekend flushing the coolant on the Mustang. This weekend I am going to be installing speed bleeders on the Mustang and flushing the brake fluid. http://www.speedbleeder.com/ My next...

Ran across a link to this site today. I am not sure if it has been posted here before. It looks awesome, lots of info on setting up a garage from lighting, floors, tools and more. There is even a gallery of garages. http://www.garagejunkies.net/index.php? Enjoy :D

Due to be officially announced tomorrow at the New York auto show. Guess Ford couldn't hold out another day :D 5.4L Supercharged V8 pushing 450hp, only downside is it will also be pushing $40,000...

Hey all, Just got a new toy for my birthday. Actually my birthday is not until Nov 8 but, the sale ended tomorrow so the wifey let me have it early. It is a Craftsman 33 gallon Vertical Portable Tank Compressor, 6 hp. Sorry for the awful picture but, it is late and the garage is a...

Hey all, I detailed it a month ago and just got around to taking pictures today. I did AIO x2 by hand and then SG x2 by hand, one day between layers. All I have done to maintain the finish is weekly washings, no QD or boosters applied. It has held up well to all the rain we...

Hey all, I am planning to detail the Mustang this weekend and am trying to decide which of the above combos to go with. This is my first time with any of these products. I divided the hood in half and applied both and so far here are my impressions. VM x2 - very easy to use...

Hey all, Anyone used the new BFGoodrich g-Force Sport tire? I am currently running the BFGoodrich KDW and have been more than happy with them but, I need a bit longer tread wear and a less expensive tire. I am looking at the KDWS which has a treadwear rating of 400 vs the KDW 300 but...

Good 'ole Coastal Tool has a pretty good page describing the various part numbers associated with the Porter Cable Dual Action Polisher. Good information for someone just looking at the PC. http://www.coastaltool.com/cgi-bin/SoftCart.exe/a/port/skinny.htm?L+coastest+rmjg2949ffa7cba7+1087521517

Just saw this on Car & Driver the other day. Normally I don't really like C&D but, it appears to be the first comparison out there and I found it interesting anyway. "It wasn't even a contest. The Ford GT so completely dusted off its two highly recognized competitors that if we had wanted to...

I hope this thread doesn't spiral into a flame war so I am going to try and ask this as delicately as possible. Even though it is not my favorite product I do use Zaino. I have always understood that you had to remove ALL oils from the paint prior to application. I accepted this as part of...

Hey all, I am thinking about replacing the light fixtures in my garage with fluorescents this weekend. I was going to pick them up at Home Depot or Lowes. From their websites it looks like Home Depot has a better selection of lighting. I am thinking 2 4' double bulb units. Any...

What would you all recommend for spraying wheel wells. On the Mustang the front wheel wells have a plastic liner but, the rears have no liner just a bit of undercoating that isn't evenly applied. Any suggestions for something that is durable as I only want to apply it once. Thanks

Just had to tell someone as my wife didn't seem to care at all :) I finally got around to trying the tip of putting 1/2 cup of white distilled vinegar in the final rinse cycle when washing microfiber. I had noticed recently that my pakshak waffle weave towels were not as absorbant as they...
