I know it's a new vehicle, but it came complete with dealer-installed swirls and bird-doo etching (it sat on the lot for awhile). After owning the Jeep for a couple weeks, I finally had a nice day when I wasn't working. Here's the process used: QEW wash Clay SSR1 with orange light cutting pad...

Goodness, it's been a spell... Imagine my suprise when I logged in and realized I hadn't done that for a year! Time flies, and then its spring, again! I traded my nice charcoal Regal for a white Grand Cherokee, and have realized that I have no idea how to take care of a light colored vehicle...

I heard about this place from the folks over at Autopia awhile ago, and have been lurking ever since. Figured it was time to delurk and say hi, so here I am! :angel

I finally got my new spoiler, and had the body shop put it on. (I couldn't bring myself to intentionally dent/scratch/drill on my paint.) Comments? Oh yeah, she got a fresh coat of S100 in honor of the occasion (except the spoiler... three more weeks before I can wax it). :D

I just received my Matte Effect Interior Kit from the Autopia store this afternoon. As luck would have it, my husband pulled his truck into the drive as I was unpacking the bottles. Ahh! A victim! (And the dash was dirty. Quite dirty. I don't have before pics - it would be too...

The engine bay, that is. :eek: I've always been very very afraid of spraying water and cleaner into the engine bay. Today I'm feeling a bit braver, but don't know how to begin. I've got EFHI, and the CD2 kit, and plenty of old shop towels. My question is, I don't know what to cover so...

I posted a thread about cleaning up oxidation on a conversion van - it got lost, no biggie. But I wanted to thank bretfraz for his guidance in using DACP and SFP. This is the before shot of my friend's van. The van is a chevy single stage, two-tone 1985 van. A beast, for sure, but the...

The warm weather and a few days off got the best of me. What started out as a simple wash/wax turned into a full blown two-day endeavor. (I take my time, take lots of breaks, and work sloooooow - I'll never be a pro at this.) I have nothing but good things to say about Klasse. This is after...

Just wanted to openly say thanks to bw for his excellent article on how to debadge a car. One of my door badges broke, and I ordered a replacement. I followed the article exactly, and rubbing alcohol got the foam residue off without too much trouble. After a shot of Meguiars PPC, the paint...

I feel like I've really learned a lot here, so I figured I'd "show off" the results. This car has (so far) been touched by Meguiars only... I'm happy with my latest combo of products, so I think I'll stick with them for now. The car got the works last week, and this is the first wash after...

Unfortunately, I don't have any pictures to show off the work done, digital camera is coming next week... My stepson found a deal on an '88 Toyota Tercel, and the car, mechanically, is in excellent shape with 135K miles on it. Unfortunately, I dont think the car had been washed more than a...

All, I'm beginning to get my stuff together (will probably order Klasse this weekend) for a fresh finish on my charcoal Regal. I have been using Gold Class (both Liquid and Paste), and am striving for something a bit better. First things first - swirl remover. (It's dark, and although I...

Hello all, I'm new here, but not really new to the quest of a perfect shine (and perfect protection) on my car. Until now, I've been using Meguiars Gold Class, but I still end up with micro-swirls (I now realize it is probably my choice of towels and bad drying habits) and am not satisfied with...
