I just realized how long that I have been lurking and not logging in -- I'm going to have to change that. Referencing General Motors 2013 paint, I'm having some slight trouble deciding on what to do here. I currently have a 2011 White Z71 Tahoe. The paint has got to be the easiest to...

Hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas! A bit of background: I had a 2008 Tahoe Z71 with the ebony leather and always used Zaino leather conditioner since the day it rolled off the lot into my driveway. I had excellent results; the leather was always soft, never cracked and showed...

Well the neighbor decided to be "kind" this weekend and seal my privacy fence that faces his yard. In the process there was some overspray that got on my vehicles. Mostly my work truck (It's covered), and a bit on my new tahoe. I'm not quite happy about it, but I'll live. I...

Any way it can be done without destroying anything? I removed the 3rd row seats in my 08 tahoe. The plastic guide/channel got scratched a bit when I removed one of the seats. Pics to come this afternoon.

Just my luck.....Mrs. Hd got a dent on the rear quarter today in the car..... Now I need to look @ the option of PDR. What is the process used? How do they get the stretched metal back to shape? I've never seen the process done and am quite curious how it works before I start calling...

Took me a few days to get this done but I did manage to get completed. Washed it x2. It was quite dirty from sitting on the lot. - Meguiars Gold Class. Clayed with OTC "Clay Magic" 2x coats of Menzerna FMJ on the paint, mirrors, jambs, and underhood. Interior protected with 303...

I have a 98 Grand Am GT 4-door sedan that's black. I attempted to begin some buffing this weekend but my arm just won't let me. I managed to get through using Menzerna IP on the hood a single pass to get some of it cleared up. I couldn't do much more so I just sealed it with FMJ until...

The title pretty much says it all. My wife and I got into a mess this past weekend. We ended up at a Nissan dealer and got talked into a Nissan Pathfinder "S". We drove it home, and she then decides she does not like it. The next day my wheels are rolling as I'm fuming. I go...

I sold my 07 Classic 2500hd Sierra 4x4 and got an 08 Tahoe Z71 4x4 LT3 this weekend. I now have black leather. I've never had a leather interior and am unsure of how to care for it. A friend of mine suggested that I use some walmart leather conditioner immediately so it stays nice...

Sitting here across from a detail shop in town. Guy is washing a nice looking late 90's blazer with purple power degreaser. Unbelievable:wow: .

Anyone have a good source on a 12 Volt Vacuum that actually works? I'd like to keep one of these in the truck & car so I can do a quick touch-up when we go on vacations/out of town. Thanks!

I've had the same 16oz bottle for about a year. It seems that the durability of the finished product has gotten very poor. I'm not sure if the white color VS the dark color of the new truck has anything to do with it. On the dark truck: Slickness would hang in there for at least 2-3...

Went to my friend's shop yesterday and worked on the truck for about 10 hours getting it back together. The paint booth? No heat. Cure time? about 4 hours. The hood, valance, fenders, and driver side door was repainted. He used a clear coat that was about $300/gal and says it's...

Looks like the paint will be a close to perfect match from what I can see in the shop. Hopefully when it gets out in the sun it will be a good match. I asked about how soon can I wax the newly painted panels: As soon as I want since it's cured allready. I would suggest wait a few weeks...

I've had it about 6 months and WOW! It stinks. To give an idea, it smells like a very, very sweaty body odor / sulfer type smell. When I put it on the dash in the work truck I couldn't breathe for nearly two days and had to "air it out". Any suggestions on what it could be? :thx

I'm making myself sick over my truck since I had the accident. Seriously debating on trading it in once I get it back. Minor front end damage: New hood, fenders, valance, bumper, grill, lights, etc. New paint: Hood, valance, lt/rt fenders and blend the lt/rt doors. Paint: Carbon...

Two vehicles in question: First my 98 grand am. It's black. Repainted about 3 years ago with PPG. Honest to God the paint seems to swirl SUPER easy as compared to the OEM paint. Second: The 04 GMC Sierra HD. The tailgate originally. Repainted with PPG. Extra hardner in the mix...

Believe it or not it's been since December of 2005 since I have applied Menzerna. The original application I believe was FPII, Glaze x 1 and FMJ x 5, then a few weeks later I put a coat of #26 x1 to amplify the looks. The truck is outside, but under the carport 95% of the time and driven only...

What's the differences between the grades of clay? I've seen ultra fine, fine, medium, etc. What does what? I've always used clay magic with good results. Any info is appreciated as always!
