    Had some fun with really scruffy single stage paint!

    I was making a video, and I got a couple of pretty scruffy trunks from old M6 BMWs to use as examples. One had been sitting outside for a long time, and had a large brake rotor rusting on top of it. :help: The other wasn't as far gone, but had serious issues. Believe it or not, this is...

    Atlantic Euro does a GlossHaus Demo Day

    So our local Euro car club got a few members together today and did a few demos on their cars. Our buddy Brandon came out and showed off his touch with the orbital and Menzerna polishes, and I did the GlossHaus system. A few pix: Where did all these black cars come from? The...

    Sorta new - Is there a glossary somewhere?

    So there are LOTS of terms used here (RIDS, LSP, etc.). I've picked up most from context, but a glossary would be great. It is probably right in front of me, but haven't seen it... Is one there?

    Too hot to polish??

    I'm guessing it is in the 90's in my garage, I've cracked the doors to get some airflow, but I'm having trouble with the polish drying out. Should I work in smaller segments or is it just "wait 'til it is cooler"?

    Polish + Pinstripes = ???

    So... I'm getting ready to run the whole GlossHaus system on my M635, and just noticed a detail while going over with clay tonight that worries me a little. Of all the cars I've detailed, none of them have had applied pinstripes, and my M635 does. I'm going to use the Flex on most of...

    A Flex Review (slightly shorter than Moby ****)

    OK - initial report. I found out today that my son's adventure with my Nikon D70 is going to cost me $220, so no pix until it gets back in a couple weeks :wall. I couldn't wait for the weekend, so I had a swipe at my wife's 2002 Honda Odyssey. I'm pretty sure it hasn't been waxed or...

    Anyone interested in a demo day in W-S??>>

    A buddy and I have a small shop in Winston Salem, and we use and sell the GlossHaus line of products. I had a tent and did demos at Vintage in the Vineyards, and it was a lot of fun. I was thinking we might host a demo day at our shop in W-S (or maybe my buddy's house, which is pretty close...

    Atlantic Euro hits Vintage in the Vineyard

    We had another BMW event that was fairly local, so I pitched the Atlantic Euro tent and did some GlossHaus demos. It was a lot of fun, especially when the owner of a pretty crispy Alfa Romeo challenged me to make it shine. These pix got a little chunky when reduced for the web, so apologies...

    Hola!

    I guess my original thread was a little over the top, so I'll try again. I've found Autotopia as part of my research on the Flex 3401. I've been detailing for a while now. It started knowing a few people who kept their cars amazing, but I was always intimidated by the concept of using a...

    Anyone else using the Griot's 3" RO?

    I got the Mini Pneumatic Orbital 3" and other than it being pretty dang hungry for air, I really like it. Mainly it is useful for getting into the tight spots and pillars. It seems to have a little more cut than my 6" RO, and is very light in your hand. Not a huge fan of the noise of...

    In to the abyss...

    Well, after reading a lot and spending a bit of time on the phone with Phil at Detailer's Domain, I've been wanting a Flex XC 3401. I don't want to deal with the risk of a true orbital, and it seems like the Flex will get you much better performance over the PC with nearly the same risk. The...
