Until today, my machine of preference has been the PC. My first attempts with both the rotary and the cyclo were not good ones, and blamed both negative experiences on poor quality pads and/or poor pad choice. I haven't purchased new rotary pads yet, but I have recently purchased a few new Cyclo...

I'm getting ready to buy a new monitor (20"), and I can't decide if I want a regular or widescreen. First of all, I never watch movies on my computer so that part doesn't matter. I'm just more interested in being able to display more at one time without having to scroll so much, but at the same...

After seeing a few members recommend this really awesome little platform, I just had to get one. I don't know how I've gone so long without it!?!? I paid $49.00 for it from Ace Hardware. I'm sure it would be cheaper if you go to Home Depot or something but I was already there and I wanted...

I was at WalMart today and saw these two items in the checkout aisle. Unfortunately, I don't have pics because I didn't buy them, but they were only .87 cents each. The plastic clay holder is actually a soap holder that is made of plastic and available in a few different bright colors. It's a...

Well, after receiving my DeWalt rotary for Christmas, I am JUST getting around to trying it out today, and I must say that my experience wasn't the best I could have had. Nothing went wrong, I just didn't get the results I was hoping for, and it turned to be a LOT harder to use than I thought it...

I'm just trying to find someone that works for a company like Cox Communications or something just like it that offers Digital Cable, Internet (Cable Modems), Satellite, etc. One of my friends used to work for a cable company and he gave me an awesome set of compression style connectors and...

I guess I should have titled this EX vs. EX-P+ since the new EX-P version has been released. Anyway, my question is since EX and EX-P are the same except for carnauba in EX, does this mean that EX is technically more durable than EX-P? If the answer is yes, does the same apply to EX-P+...

Here's an interesting poll for you guys. Do you prefer the richness, gloss, and depth of a carnauba, but at the expense of short lifespan and the *stickiness* a wax will bring (dust attraction), or do you prefer to stick with the longevity, slickness, and reflectiveness of a sealant...

I have a bottle of Pinnacle Advanced Swirl Remover sitting here from one of the Autogeek deals, and out of curiosity, I decided to read the instructions. According to the instructions, application is preferred by PC and it goes on to state that you should *apply it in a figure 8, to a 2x2 area...

As some of you know, I recently purchased a Cyclo and wasn't all that happy with it. My first attempt was using it for some pretty heavy compounding work with some 3M RC, and I was really having some problems. It wasn't producing the finish I normally get with the PC and the pads were caking...

I think I found a place for my Wolfgang. The bottle states that it's for metallic and dark cars, so I thought I'd give it a try over AIO. The result is a deep, wet, highly reflective finish. Of course, this was preceded by hours and hours of prep with both the PC and Cyclo. Process: Wash...

Is it just me or is new BMW clear hard as a rock?!?! I was detailing my mother's new bimmer today, which we bought used by the way. It's a 2004 with 8k miles on it. The previous owner was a female that just had a baby and she traded it in for a 7 series. Anyway, she took great care of the car...

My mom just bought a BMW 330cic with a black top, and until now, I've never cleaned a convertible. One thing I hate is when conv. tops are cleaned too aggressively and they end up having a *chalky* look to them. This car is brand new and I'd like to keep the top looking as good as possible...

I received my new Covercraft Industries Weathershield HD car cover today for my 04' Expedition ($400, plus shipping, etc.) and I must say that I am not too impressed with the level of softness for the inside of the cover. I am judging purely by feel, but the inside of the cover feels like a very...

If anyone finds one of these, PLEASE take some pics of it and post them for me. I really have to hand it to the H-D design team for this year, they did one heck of a job. I don't know how many of you have seen one of these in person yet but, oh my goodness, you are in for a treat. They did...

For Christmas I received a very pretty DeWalt 849 rotary :D and now need to decide as to which plate and pads I want to use. First of all, I read the Sticky "Rotary Usage" and noticed that most of the discussion took place nearly 2 years ago which means any product discussion is pretty much...

I did a search and all I came up with was past discussions over what the best cover is, but not where to buy them. I want to buy a Weathershield HD, anyone know who's got the best deal? I know Autogeek has them for $495.00. So far, that's the cheapest I have found. This is going to be...

I just found out today that my Expedition is going to be in a local car show which is held in the New Orleans Superdome. The show is somewhere around the first or second week of January and I'm trying to decide as to what products to use on the detail. The reason I'm not just doing my usual is...

This is for everyone wondering what this looks like. If your hood looks like this, then you have been plagued with cc failure.
