Here's the story: My T-Bird has been out for a little while with a spun crankshaft bearing so I started out my ripping out the interior (entirely) and cleaning that. Then I moved to the exterior. The paint looks awesome! After claying, DACP (diamond cut in some areas), machine glaze, and...

I have never heard anything but rave reviews about Eimann Fabrik products. I was thinkin about picking up some citrus degreaser, and some black opal dressing. My question is this (nice and simple): does Eimann Fabrik have a web site, or is all the info about their products available from online...

I got asked today from a buddy (who's '88 Cobra I was detailing) what the difference between wet sanding and color sanding is. I'm assuming it's this: wet sanding - is just that. used to remove major imperfections in the clear coat after painting. color sanding - base is sanded to an...

I'm going to be using DACP on a red pad, #9 on a yellow pad, and I was thinking #3 (machine glaze) on the beige pad, all of which using the PC 7424. Or should I use a polishing (yellow) pad with the glaze? The car I'm working on is a '98 Cavalier with the teal paint. I'll post before and after...

Has anyone ever looked at this pressure washer from Landa? It's got all the toys: 2000W generator, 3500PSI, Wet Steam, Electric start, etc. Just wondering what some of the Mobile Pro's are using??

Just wondering what the PC product number is for the hook and loop backing pad for the 7424 is. I'm looking at picking up a 7424 and thought I'd ask. Or do you recommend the Meguiars's backing pad? I also found a great place to get Meguiars products from.... Acklands Grainger (for us...

For the guys that have used souveran before, will it make a big difference on a light colored car? The car is a champagne color (below) and I will be giving it a complete cleaning (ie: clay bar, DACP w/ PC, Glaze, Many coats of wax). I was thinking about Souveran, but if it won't do much for a...

I don't mean to start a "brand war", but I'd like to know personal opinions on Protectants for fabric seats. My mother wants me to take and give her car the "Royal Treatment" :D and after having one of her co-workers spill coffee all over the seat, she wants to have them protected. So far I was...

I work outside at the YYC Airport. Lately it's been pretty cold and we've gotten alot of snow. When driving outside all of the guys use goggles or something along that lines in order to see where they're going while it's snowing/raining out. Lately the snow is sticking to my goggles pretty badly...

I know I've done this with some cheap t-shirts that will bleed color unless treated. When I wash them, I throw in a little vinegar into the wash.... it helps to set the color in, and ever since that I've never had a problem with the colors bleeding. So....with that said. Could, for the first...

I can truthfully say that folding my MF towels so the tag isn't showing/exposed is a PITA! Does anyone have any suggestions before I start to take the tags off of the MF's that I have? I did a search for this, but only turned up with towel comparisons. Thanks.

The car I'm currently working on has ALOT of overspray on the rear window. It's an '88 Mustang GT Hatchback. I've used 0000 Steel wool on the outside of windows before, but I want to know if there's any difference using it on the inside. Because the defroster is not embedded in the glass, but...

Can the Meguairs Machine Glaze (#3 I think) be applied in 2 or 3 coats to fill in better, or should I stick with one coat and go with a couple extra coats of wax?

Does anybody know of a good place in or around the Calgary Alberta area to get supplies from? so far I have to run around to about three or four different places to get the things I often need. I'm looking for a place that can sell me all types of pads, polishes, waxes, etc.. I'd rather buy in...

K, I know it's probably been asked before, but here goes: I'm thinking about picking up a Porter Cable Random Orbit polisher (model number 7424 i think). What do you guys think if it? If you don't like it, is there any other Random orbit out there that you recommend? I don't mean to start a war...
