As some of you may have read, I got 5 new LC pads in the other day. 3 White polishing, 2 Orange light cutting. I was trying them out today with some DACP on the mom-mobile, and the glue from the velcro on the cutting pad is seperating already! This is the second time I've used it! The first time...

My parents were on their way home from Philly the other day and they both had jackets on. My mom had on a new(er...?) black leather coat, and the heated seats were on full power in her car. When she got out of the car, she noticed some of the dye form the jacket transferred onto the light...

I just got my order in last night including 2 LC orange light cutting pads. These are the ones with the 'bowl' in the middle. I believe this is to prevent splatter? I was having difficulty applying my DACP to my Jeep today using this pad. I used the 'X marks the spot' method, and drew a...

Short Version: Awesome weather. Cleaned Jeep. Cleaned Upholstery. Waxed Jeep. AIO'd Jeep's Wheels. Got order in today. WW MF's are amazing Sonus der wunder Wasche works well. Turned a fellow car nut onto Autopia :D Long, more detailedversion. I woke up and had intended to...

I was just curious... Does anyone know if the paint of Wrangler TJ is a single stage? The paint , especially on my hood, feels very thin. Much thinner than say my mom's Chrysler. Is it also possible it's had its share of wet sanding? There's not much OP on the hood compared to the doors...

PC Polishing pads that is! I understand there might be a few threads out there now answering these questions. However I'm way too swamped with homework to do a search for anything, and I need to order before this weekend because I have a job on Saturday (weather permitting)...

We all know that claying can be used to strip wax or sometimes a sealant, if it's not too durable ;). But, when the wax is taken off, where does it go? does it create a film of wax in the clay bar? I've never noticed a difference in my clay except for the grit in it. How does the clay hold the...

Well, it has since been suggested to my parents by Mr. Thomas (tdekany) that I would love them very much if they bought me a rotary ;) . So because I never pass up a chance to meet new people and have fun why not learn to use a rotary with some awesome people-Autopians! I don't expect a...

i got my PC about a month or so ago, and ordered the Sonus pad kit/AIO along with it. Donated to me by thinksnow was SSR1&2. orange pad is the most aggressive in the kit. with the SSR2 on speed 6, i cant seem to get the swirls out of my mom's '04 sebring. Chrysler isn't using that rock hard...

the other day my dad and i met a guy with a '99 jeep TJ. the car was having an engine transplant from the stocker 4 banger to a chevy 350. the guy bought the car with a Jet Power Control Module. obviously it fits the 4 cylinder model, but will it fit my 6 cylinder engine? i checked the JET web...

i will be tackling our not-neglected-but-never-clean '99 Ford 350. and of course, just to make it hard on me its the full 4 door and long bed model. its also dark forest green... :rolleyes: its been washed maybe a total of 10 times in the 5 years that we've owned it, and waxed 2 or 3...

Just got my PC today from lowes and i was eager to try it out. not to mention i got some new products from thinksnow last week i was itching to try. i only have the one pad for now, so i took out some ssr2 and hit up the passenger side of our '46 plymouths hood. worked pretty well. there are...

first off, to the moderator: if this is deemed OT, please feel free to move it to the off topic forum. :wavey ok: i am a boy scout an am finishing off this last merit badge to become an Eagle Scout. (for those who dont know, this is the highest award you can recieve in the BSA, and only...

i have done many searches, and learned much already. but, the amount of info i found was so overwhelming i needed a way to break it all down. of course, if you happen to know a thread off of the top of your head that answers all of these quesitons, please point me towards it so noone has to go...

whenever you finish a detail, you always walk around the car, right? look for some wax in the cracks (hey, that rhymed!), etc... what you do do to make sure you dont have any extra flaws after a detail. for example: if you do a white car it can be hard to see leftover dried wax. is it okay...

i have searched, but its a pretty broad topic, and i dont have time to look carefully becaus ei have a job tomorrow. :D i just finished claying the car (wow, that was cool!) but i guess i used up a majority of the QD that came in the kit (Mother's kit). my question is can i use a different QD...
