    Need to Repaint.

    Well, the PT Crusier hood is beyond correction, and will need to be repainted. It's a black hood. I want a decent paint job on this, but can't get to the shop until Friday to get a quote. Does anyone here have any idea what this might cost me? I'm on pins and needles wanting to find out...

    Help with Sanding Marks

    OK, so I made a big mistake, and tried to cut a scratch/touchup down with the wrong grit of paper. I did about 5 passes of 600 in three different areas before I realized everything. I tried to clean it up with 2000, but two of the areas are still showing some scratches. I did about 10 passes...

    Memorial Day Weekend Detaling Plans--Critique

    It's finally nice out, and I'll have a nice three day weekend to work, so I want to try my first detail and do my black 2001 PT Cruiser that I got on the car auction in October. I listed below what I'm thinking about. The car has heavy swirling, and a lot of rock chips. If anything doesn't...

    Help with Adhesive Tape

    Don't know if this is the best place for this or not. I was washing my PT Cruiser this weekend, when I noticed that the adhesive tape that holds the wheel well covers and part of the front bumper trim is wearing out/pulling off. I went and got 3m tape from the local parts store, but it is no...

    Steamer

    Well, it's tax refund time, and I want to use some of my extra money to buy a steamer. Problem is, I have no idea what to get! I want to use this to clean the door jams and engine bay in my cars (and maybe it could double as a household steamer, but I'm not too worried about that). Could...

    How Can I Fix This?

    This is probably in the wrong thread, so if the mod could move it to the appropriate place I'd appreciate it. Basically I'm trying to fix up my mom's mini-van as best I can since she can't afford a new car, and wants to hand onto this one for atleast 3 more years. The door was hit by...

    Plastic chrome rims

    OK, I picked up a PT Cruiser in October as a winter car, but with the price of gas I'm going to be driving it a lot more this summer. It has chromed plastic on the rims, and from the outside they look fine (no real issues except for a little curb rash on one). However, I took them off this...

    Recommendations Please.

    OK...this spring I'll be using my PC for the first time. I have seven cars that I hope to detail within the next two months (my own and family cars). I'll start with my cars, since those are the ones that I have access to right away. What I'm looking for are product recommendations and...

    Suggestions for weekend detail

    OK, this is what I've put together for this weekend (I plan on spending Saturday and Sunday doing this in my garage) for my first time with a PC. Please offer suggestions if you recommend fewer applications, different pads to be using (I bought the Sonus pad kit from Autopia) or different...

    Just got a PC 7336, now what?

    I just recieved my PC 7336 from lowes.com (got it for 99 dollars shipped). Now that I have the PC I need to decide on what I want to buy for pads and products. I'd like to buy everything locally because I want to try the PC out this weekend, but I might end up having to order. Local stores...
