My in-laws have a black 2005 Jeep Grand Cherokee with the ribbed plastic body cladding on the sides. How do you machine polish those? Is there a trick or technique, or do you just have to work you way in with the edge of the pad?

My father in law is planning on selling his 7 year old Malibu, he owns it, but it is just a work vehicle for him. He will throw some soap and water at it every 6 months or so, but that is all. The color is that awful "sea foam green", the paint is not damaged, just neglected. I've offered...

Found 4 cans of CR-2 at Autozone today, from what I understand it is getting more difficult to find, and I need to know if I should go get some more. So, I intend to use it for my own 2 vehicles, both engines are mildly dirty. How much will I need to use per engine? 1/4 can? 1/2 can...I...

I'd like to make one trip and get both items. I'd like a double lamp halogen with at least 1000watts, (open to any other suggestions), and a decent little rolling stool, what should I look for specifically? Sears? Lowes? AdvanceAuto? Walmart?.....does it really matter, or can I just grab...

I need the serial # to register my UDM for the warranty, I don't see it? Where is it located? Thanks!

1st- awesome B**BS!!! 2nd- She cleared my plans and errands for me today because she knew I'd want to get up and play with her boo........I mean my new UDM. How cool is that? I work nightshift, so even getting up at 2pm did not give me much time to set up and try it out. She also did not...

My brand new UDM will be arriving in the next few days, so I have not actually seen one before. I have been buying LLC pads from ProperAutoCare and Autogeek so I'll be ready when it gets here. The pads that I have are wrapped in plastic in pairs, and all I see is the foam pad, no backing, no...

They have been given away for free with the UDM for quite awhile, are they any good? The 2 polishes I plan on using are Menz IP and FPII, I am going to use the LLC white pads for both (my paint is really in very good shape, light etching and scratches). Are the orange pads worth messing with...

I was hoping if someone could tell me if these are the exact same products just sold by different venders. 1st-- from Autogeek--CCS 6.5" Smart Pads Dual Action pads by Lake County 2nd- from ProperAutoCare--OEM style CCS 6.5" Technology 7/8" by Lake County They look just alike and the...

It seems that nowadays with the advent of forums like this one, the internet, incredible products, and sheer interest, that normal people can just about match the competency of a proffesional detailer if they truly want to. What was it like "back in the day", say like late 70's through the...

I'd like to catch up on the TV show "LOST", I wasn't able to keep up with it the last season, and I see that it will be coming back soon. I've seen some websites and forums, so I can catch up on what happened each episode. What I'd really like to know is, what is the prevailing theory on...

I searched first, but got no results. Why in the world aren't these products advertised? Do they seem to good to be true? Too hard to explain in 30 seconds? No market, besides us? Detailers Union :bat ? seems like too much trouble? I guess they do advertise on car sites like Autogeek and...

I tried to search for it, but it was spotty at best. From what I've read so far, it seems that it may be released in the spring of '08. It may be up to $200. The "switch" issue should be fixed. Please feel free to add to or correct any of this information. Thanks

I was proudly looking at my organized wall of car care products and the plastic containers full of MF's, when I realized that I am involved in a "hobby" that no one else around me cares in the slightest about. My wife likes when the interior is clutter free and vacuumed, thats about it...

I want to buy some lights for detailing in the garage. I'm looking at one at AdvanceAuto that is a "250 watt worklight" for $9. A few of these will really help light my space, which is really all I need for ONR & Klasse SG. This light is not a "halogen", and from what I understand, I will...

I was wondering if there are any shows that I am not aware of that feature any sort of detailing, preferably machine polishing and polishing products. I know I can check out Youtube and Meguiar's website for some "how to" videos. I'm sure I would have seen anything like mentioned already...

Last night I took advantage of the promotion over on ProperAutocare.com, 10% off and free shipping!! I bought some Lake County green pads (for KAIO), some white pads (for Menzerna FPII) and a 16oz bottle of FPII. All I need now is the UDM, which I plan on buying in the Spring. From what I've...

I have a Harley dealer near my house, I am going to pick up some S100/P21s wax, my question is, is there anything in the S100 line-up that is similar to Menz FP? I know that they have the Shine Enhancing Cleanser, is that at all a polish or more like KAIO in its prepping properties? I plan on...

It is my understanding that the original Meg's G100 is a re-badged PC7424 with a lifetime warranty, and that the soon-to-be released Meg's G110 is going to be a re-badged UDM. Is this correct? And if so, will the G110 have the same lifetime warrantly? I've been seeing more and more people having...
