I got a cr spotless water deionizer before Christmas. It was a deal on eBay, a dual 10" unit. I purchased new crspotless resin and refilled. I used it for the first time yesterday. Amazing. It was warm enough in TN to actually make paint surfaces feel hot, so the christening of my new to me...

I'm a first time home buyer. I found a sweet place, so I put a contract on it. During the home inspection, I noticed termite damage in the garage near the door. Termite inspector says it's recent, active, and needs to be treated. :shifty: ... ok, I can deal with this, right? Just...

This morning my lover got this black goo (maybe driveway sealer? or some kind of black paint) all over the truck. I was not told about it until I got home, since my love knows these things bother me :grinno: I tried to clay with yellow griots clay (not very aggressive). I was worried...

16 oz. bottles of Menzerna Final Polish II (about 8 oz remaining or 50%) and Intensive Polish (~12 oz remaining or 75%). I am looking for 20 bucks shipped for both to the lower 48. Paypal only unless local to Knoxville, TN. PM if interested.

Price Change: $5 w/shipping. I have two 8oz sized bottles of Sonus SFX-1/2 polishes. I've used these for swirl removal and the SFX-1 has about 30% remaining; the SFX-2 has about 40% left. I have used them by hand and by PC. They have a very long working time and a pleasant scent as...

I have someone who wants me to detail his girlfriend's car as a present. She is out of state until 7/17 [Sunday = delivery date]. I will be available until the Friday prior (this Friday) to clean this car. It's available to me from right now to delivery. The problem is it will be kept...

I've got a g35 coupe (Laser Red/"hard clear" on underhood sticker) that has some acid rain etching on most of the horizontal surfaces. Pics below. Note that the panel is VERY clean in the pic below, all the imperfections are in the clear. I tried to remove these defects with a 4" yellow...

I can't post pics to my autopia album, any ideas? I've been here for years, so can't figure why I'm having a problem.

I'm looking for reputable PDR repair guys in the greater Knoxville area. Any suggestions welcome.

I had done quite a bit of searching about using Leatherique on coated leather. My car has coated leather (G35) and almost every post I saw, except for an LHS with coated leather, were all about leatherette or uncoated leather. After much searching, contemplating, and pondering I sprung for...

I just moved into a place with a flat top stove (Whirlpool, if it matters). My mother bought some special stuff for her stove when she had remodeled the kitchen, but it seemed alot like a polish... like something I already have from a habit I've developed... Has anyone used a light polish...

Hey guys, I am embarrassed to admit that my car, while autopian clean, is lacking in maintenance ... well let me explain: My car needs a new motor, but I have been able to push it off: it uses tremendous amounts of oil for its young 82K mile life, and also needs a new timing chain/tensioner...

I thought the Autopia community could help me with snagging a job, since they straightened out my paint issues. Its a direct correlation if you think about it long enough, right? I just graduated from college, almost 4.0 in mechanical engineering (3.96) with some decent experience and...

Situation: Black G35 parked in garage. Nearly swirl free, but has alot of random of random scratches. Problem: I can't get the deeper scratches out, and new ones (however small) are coming up from people in parking lots, purses, etc. Diagnosis: OCD detailer with an inability to remove...

anyone interested at any point in the next few months to meet up? I have seen a few members close to where I am (Cookeville). If you are close to the Cookeville area voice up!

My old way of cleaning/dressing tires was to wash with and old sponge and wheel cleaner. I bought a tire and wheel brush - WOW. I use way less dressing and the tires look much darker. Not to mention all the crap that came out of the old tires. Maybe this was common knowledge here... just...

We have had drought conditions for a few months, and I haven't washed my car since september (maybe august?), minus the local pressure once or twice. I was looking at ONR or something similar, but was curious how this would work for a car that hasn't been washed in a REALLY long time. There...

I was cleaning the car this morning, and thought, "there has to be a better to clean behind the spokes," as opposed to yanking the wheels off the car everytime. I didn't like the idea of an actual brush on the rim's inner coating. It seemed too abrasive. I used a foam brush (1" width...

This isn't really a huge deal to me, but I have noticed that just about any car I have cleaned, the horizontal surfaces (most notably the roof) "lose" wax or sealant sooner (like P21s or KSG). I used some KSG on the roof of my Nissan about 2-3 weeks ago, and I can already tell that it is...

I moved into a new apartment complex, and unfortunately they water every day in the early morning, before the sun rises. In preparation for this onslought, I applied Klasse AIO and one coat of KSG (only had time for one coat of the SG). Should this be enough to prevent permenant water...
