    Working with fiberglass question...

    I'm trying to fabricate a simple fiberglass piece for under the hood of my street rod and am having some problems. My main hassle is with the resin. It either gets hard way too fast or starts to get gelled (lumpy) and impossible to work with. I've yet to get more than 10 minutes of decent...

    Cycle Dry Review

    When I first used Z-CS I had some problems with water seeping out of little nooks and crannies that would cause my applicator pad to get wet. Yeah, I've got a dedicated leaf blower, but I don't really care to drag that thing out. I also have an air compressor and a couple of shop vacs but in...

    Power Ball and Mini at Wal-Mart

    I wandered through the automotive section at Wal-Mart this evening and saw both the Mother's Power Ball and the Power-Ball Mini for $18.72 each. I already have the regular Power Ball but I thought that looked like the best price I've seen so I picked up a mini.

    The Tornador: my initial impressions

    About a month or two back Autopia sponsor Danase started selling the Tornador. You really need to click on that link and watch the short video to get a basic idea of what it is and how it works. When I first saw that little video clip I was fascinated by this tool and started thinking of uses...

    Harbor Freight Rotary 19.99

    I was out getting some cheap tools for my nephew (I'll get him Craftsman when he's old enough not to loose them) and I spotted the Harbor Freight 92623 rotary on sale for $19.99. Since I rarely use a rotary, and my older style Harbor Freight has served me well, I couldn't pass this one up for...

    Collinite Speed Stick Wax

    I have had this idea for quite some time but today I was finally bored enough to try it. I bought some Collinite #885 because it is the same formula as the 476, but in a different (smaller diameter tin). Although you get more wax in the 885 tin than you do the tin of 476, the smaller diameter...

    My First Date With Zaino

    Today was my first date with Zaino. I finally took the plunge a couple of months back because I wanted to be able to apply more than one coat of sealant at a time on a couple of our daily drivers. I decided to do the wife-mobile, a dark blue Caravan, and get it ready for winter. I got a...

    Meg's & other stuff for sale

    Edit: All items have been sold Like most, I have acquired more detailing products than I'll ever be able to use, so it's time to find these a good home. Some of this stuff came in various kits I have picked up, but these are the items I have never used. I estimate the current retail...

    A ClearKote Day

    Getting the street rod ready for the first road trip/show of the season (NSRA-Knoxville) I decided to try some of the new ClearKote products today, so this is sort of a mini-review. The car is a Guards red 1940 Chevy coupe that was just polished last September so the paint was in pretty good...

    Trunk Monkey

    Someone referred to a "trunk monkey" in the Click and Brag forum and 1 Clean WS6 asked what it was. Being curious myself, I decided to do a search and thought what I found was good enough to share; these clips are hilarious: http://www.trunkmonkey.com/content/view/29/51/...

    Spit Shining #16

    OK, today I finished up my Caravan by putting on a layer of Megâ€â„¢s #16, dressed the tires, etc.. Then I pulled the wifemobile (dark blue Lumina) around and started on it. While I was buffing off the last of the VM it started to intermittently drizzle (rain). Rather than stop I...
