    Pretty cool looking Garage Storage stuff!

    I would probably cover up the Hot Rod logos :D The only issue I have is that it's part wood and metal. And with moisture in the garage that might be an issue? http://www.hotrodbysauder.com/home/default.asp Fixed link. -- Tort.

    Anyone have the Metal Halides from Griots or somewhere else?

    How do you like them? I was thinking it might be a cleaner look to just install 2 or 3 of these, each unit is comparable to 800 watts of incandescent lighting. What do you think? I know they are slow to warm-up, but I will have regular fluorescents too like the T8s for the quick dash into the...

    How do you store your Lawn Equipment?

    I'm planning to use my garage for "automotive" related items, but need an ingenious plan to hide/store things like a lawnmower, shovels, trimmers and etc. I am not allowed to have a storage shed either in my development. What are your ideas? Thanks!

    How much lighting needed on a 24x24 garage?

    I was at Lowes looking at 6500k fluorescent lighting, some are 4 feet and 8 feet long with 2 side by side. I was thinking about getting the 4 feet x 6 of them, so a total of 12 bulbs, too much or too little? What do you think? If you have pics of your ceiling, please post :D Thanks!

    What can you do when it's 7 degrees F?

    I wanted to put a coat of KSG, but probably not a good idea maybe? :D

    Getting a new 2.5 Car Garage Built, your ideas?

    I want to keep it semi-simple this time around and not spend big bucks like a lift for example, because my neighborhood ASSociation will not allow it and a garage drain is prohibited too. I have so far is hot and cold water outlets, telephone jacks, 7 electrical outlets, 6 overhead lighting...

    New Color of NXT Car Wash?

    I was at Wally World today and noticed the new color of NXT wash, it's a dark blue compared to the usual purplish-brown. Did they upgrade the formula? And they had the old and new, so it was easily noticeable.

    Small specks on Glass?

    I notice it all the time when the sun is low in the sky (ie. evening) and shining right on the glass and I see little specks all over. I used invisible glass and a mf to clean it, but it's still there. What is it? Thanks.

    Klasse versus Pinnacle?

    Just another reason to spend more money, I currently have been using Klasse AIO and SG on my Audi TT, but since it's a garage queen, what do you think about Pinnacle Cleansing lotion and Souveran Paste wax? Anyone actually used both before and what do you think about the depth of shine and etc...

    Sonüs Acrylic Glanz and Sonüs Acrylic Glanz?

    What is the real difference between these too? I have the original Sonus that I use as a QD, is the Acrylic Glanz new and is it considered a quick wax/sealent thingy? I'm confused! BTW, I use Klasse AIO and SG. Thanks!

    #34 Final Inspection?

    Okay I did a search, but it didn't answer my question if #34 really has any alcohol content in it or not? If so, does that tend to remove the wax/sealent I have on my car? It does work better and it doesn't leave a holographic residue on my black paint like Sonus does. thanks.

    You gotta love Klasse AIO and SG!

    I stripped all the P21S wax with AIO and then SG x 2, some say that sealants make it too sterile, but it looks pretty good on black. No photochop either except using the rubber stamp to remove my reflection! I will probably not top it with any carnuba, I want to continue adding more layers of SG...

    1Z Cockpit Premium on engine!

    I tried it out on the engine bay, it did a good job in cleaning the plastic, rubber and metal parts. It leaves a perfectly matte finish with a protectant and it's anti-static, great smell too! I know it's made for the interior which it does an excellent job, but was curious on other areas :D

    NXT Wash compatible with P21S and Klasse?

    just out of curiousity, I picked up a bottle of NXT wash for the wheels, the back said for NXT wax, but wondered if it causes any problems with Klasse AIO and SG, or even P21S wax. I would assume no?

    Is there such a thing as "overwaxing" your car?

    Because just for fun I wax my car everytime I wash it about 1-2 weeks, it just takes me 45 minutes with the P21S. Can it develop increased residue and etc.? Thanks

    what causes the holographic effect on cars?

    After using Sonax for the first time today, I noticed a holographic effect on the side of my car with the sun at a low angle. I used #34 FI to remove it, could it be residue or "glossifers" from the Sonax? Never had issues with P21S wash or 1Z Perls. Thanks!

    Washing with just Water?

    I was wondering if the car has only minor dust and pollen on it, would you just hose it down with water? I know I can use a QD, but I don't want to risk scratches. Except for the wheels where I would use soap to clean it. I read somewhere that Lamborghini and Ferrari recommends it. Just an idea? :D

    Reviving 10 year old Volvo 850 paint!

    I spent 5 hours today detailing one of my parents cars, it's a 1994 Volvo 850, 90k miles with some oxidation, swirls and scratches, always garaged kept but hasn't seen wax or anything else on over 5 years, but washed weekly at the car wash:eek: I used 3M PI-IIIMG with yellow pad on PC7424, then...

    I love GEPC and P21S, pics inside

    My first true spring detail this year, washed with 1Z Perls, used 3M FI-IIIMG with PC7424, GEPC and P21S. The wheels have Klasse AIO and SG. It's much shinier upclose and my attempt at photography :D
