    Has anyone done the 5 inch backing plate mod for their Rupes 21?

    What do you think of it? I`m tempted to try this for more power, but I know the balance will be slightly off. Discuss

    Back in action!

    I'm back now, after having a job doing construction I am back for good. I realized a lot of things while I was gone, like how good and satisfying detailing really is, and that the money is just not worth it. Anyway, I'm glad to be back, this is my first week back and I've been taking care of old...

    Kool little mods I made for the vacuum...

    I don't know about everyone else, but it kills me to clean out the vacuum filter at the end of the day. And it seems like right after you do it it just gets clogged back up again. You loose suction power, your carpets don't get cleaned as good, and you loose time and energy trying to get it...

    Has anyone tried the Montana Boars Hair Car Wash Brush?

    I like using a brush because it gets the cracks and crevices way better than mitts do, but believe it or not, I've had problems with them marring the paint. If you use them at a wrong angle or with too much force, (I'm talking about the store bought ones now) they do have the tendency to marr...

    I waxed someone's Toyota Seqoia the other day. Using Poorboys EX-Sealant on a Dark Grey Sequoia, man that thing was shining! It looked so beautiful after I was done, I went over it a second time to make sure I buffed everything out. It was beautiful. I took the customers money and headed out the...

    Is there some kind of chemical I can buy to remove oxidation? I just picked up a couple of boats that look like they have been sitting for years and years. The oxidation is really bad. A friend was telling me to wetsand it first. What kind of sandpaper do you guys recommend? I'm thinking 2000...

    Has anyone here used Poorboys Polishes or Compounds in the Sun?

    How does it compare to using other polishes or compounds? Is there a big difference or is it slightly better when used in the heat? I've used M205 and D151 in the sun, and it still does a good job, but I think Poorboys polishes might have more of a 'wetness' to it that will allow me to work it...

    Meguiars white and black (Rant!)

    I had the chance of trying these 2 little gems the past few days, and I am nothing less than impressed... Both white and black went on smoothly, I love the fact they come in little toothpaste tubes which made it really easy to deal with. You do however, need to work it in a lot more if you're...

    Anyone here into the stock market?

    What's the best way to learn and start out? I know almost nothing about stock trades, but it seems like with all these new investment companies, it seems easier and cheaper to get into it. I thought about doing penny stocks, but after reading about it a lot of it sounds sketchy. Whats a good way...
