Afternoon gents, So in the last few years I got a new job and have gradually moved away from detailing, however I have continued to maintain the family fleet of vehicles. Work sent me out of state for about 7 weeks and unfortunately while I was away my wife had to take her car to the local...

Luke Milam was a senior in High School in 1999. Not much different from a bunch of us. His high school was Columbine in Colorado. One of his best friends was killed during that senseless act of violence, and he vowed that he was going to do all he could to help people other people the way...

Hey everyone. Well last week I finally was able to buy one of my favorite cars of all time. An Acura Integra GSR. I bought this car to be my project/hobby for the next couple of years, never in my life have I had a black car so here is my first one. Since it is the typical soft honda paint I was...

Well I went and did it. I bought something that is garaunteed to take up all of my free time in the foreseable future. Goodbye school, goodbye loved ones, hello long nights in the garage and a nonstop battle against poor finishes. Man am I looking forward to it! Ladies and gentlemen, boys and...

Well for any of you who read my "Wanna come over?" thread yesterday/last night this is the product of my day of detailing. This car belongs to my fiance, Suzanne, and is basically the one nice thing that she has for herself. She is the most selfless person in the world, constantly giving gifts...

This is the best Saturday in recent recollection. I just got my Zaino order in yesterday and now today it is sorta sunny and mildly warm in Southern California couldn't have planned a better day for detailing. I have the garage all to my self, I got a fridge full of beer, a full pack of smokes...

So yea, for the last 4-5 years I had a very VERY finnicky Phoenix Gold ZX475 amplifier in my truck. This thing literally had massive problems every couple of months. One channel would crackle, another time it was only delivering about %20 to the drivers side channels. Other things like that...

I highly recommend you check out a band called Ignite. I just recently found them and they are unbeleivably awesome. What I am kicking myself about is that they have been in my area (orange county Ca.) as long as I have and I never found out about them until just a couple months ago. Anyone...

So over the weekend I bought myself a laptop, it is my last year of college and it was getting hectic trying to write papers and all that and I figured with one of these I would be able to focus more easily on the work that I was doing at the time, i.e. paper, notes, project etc. I figured I...

So about three weeks ago I replaced plugs and wires on my 01 Tahoe. My thread regarding that is just a couple topics down. Then just the other night the SES light came on, so I went to Autozone and pulled the code; it was throwing: P0300 (random/multiple cylinder misfire) P0420 (Catalst...

So a couple weeks ago I came across this site that is detailing the "2 week hell" that a wife is putting her husband through after she found out that he was cheating on her. I am pretty sure it is viral advertising for something or other, the writing is to smooth and polished and some of the...

Hey everybody! I just changed out my battery and now the car is idling extremely rough. I was wondering if anyone knows how to reset the computer on an '01 Chevy Tahoe? From what a friend told me it is idling rough because of the battery change. Any help would be appreciated.

So about 2 weeks ago I was running an errand in North Long Beach when something went sideways in my transmission. I only had second gear and reverse. So I headed straight to the Chevy dealership near my house. Let me tell you that was a fun trip down the 405, 35 mph with hazard lights on and I...

Since my mechanic roomate moved out and Suzanne is moving in, I get the garage back. = Detailing Paradise. I am thinking that I am going to seal the floor with U-Coat-It. and paint the walls. Should come out pretty nice. However there is something that is giving me problems. I want to put some...
