I haven't been on here for a while and a lot has changed from the last time I was on. Finally got around to cleaning up my car after two months of being busy with school. It's a daily driver and nine years old so I didn't bother satisfying my ocd with perfection. When I bought it two years...

So I have a bottle of Poliseal that I bought a few years ago. Used it maybe a couple times and didn't touch it for a while. Then I decided to take it out yesterday to give it another try. But it was separated into two layers. I shook it vigorously for several minutes and it was not in solution...

I bought my 2002 Maxima at the end of January after I totaled my Civic. I attempted to give it a detail over spring break, but it didn't come out to my liking. Used Menzerna IP and realized it wasn't as intensive as its name suggested. So over Thanksgiving break, I tried it again. The...

Does anybody have any experience with Sterling autobody on Busch Blvd in Tampa? My car needs repair done to the right rear corner including the quarter panel due to a hit and run. They're an Allstate premier shop so there's a lifetime guarantee, but I want to be sure they do decent work before...

I only have one car and it sits outside 24/7. Now that I bring it to school, it sits under oak trees for a couple of weeks a time. I only get a chance to wash it when I go home so it only looks good for a few days a week. I've only tried removing swirls from the whole car two, maybe three times...

Ok, so today I decided to clean my mom's Camry which is in terrible shape since some body work a few years ago. I couldn't stand the swirls anymore and decided to give a shot at fixing them. I used a PC and a swirlbuster pad with Poorboys ssr 2.5 on speed 6. I had some progress but it was taking...

Hi everyone. I cleaned up my car over Thanksgiving. It wasn't much but this time I finally got it up to decent enough shape to post pics without embarrassment. There were visible swirls on the horizontal surfaces especially the hood and on the rear pillar. Washed with QEW, polished with...

Does anybody have any experience with Blue Magic Vinyl and Leather Cleaner? I see it all around and have been curious to try it since I don't have a dedicated leather cleaner, but I don't want to buy something that doesn't work or doesn't work well. Did a search and couldn't find much. Thanks.

I'm sure some threads must have been made about this but the search function turned out too many irrelevant results for me to sort through. I am thinking of cleaning my aunt's car tomorrow (if weather permits). To her clean=detailed. It's a 2003 Mitsu Galant with the nice pear paint. She...

Hello everybody. I saw this on another forum. Shane a 7 year old has leukemia and his wish is to set a world record for getting the most birthday cards. Please follow the link and read his story Shane's Wish . I think that this is one of those small things that we can all do that will make a...

Hi everyone. I'm going to get a new mp3 player soon but I don't know which one. I want the Creative Zen Vision M 30 gigs but I haven't been able to convince my mom to spend a little more money over the price that she got my sister's 2 gig nano for so I'm looking at players around the $140-150...

Hi. I have an 04 Honda Civic coupe with about $6000 left on the loan. "Getting rid of..." isn't quite the right phrase since I like my car. But right now I'm in college and I would like to bring my car next year instead of flying and a it would be impossible to bring much with a 2 door compact...

I don't quite need one now but maybe in several months. I'm currently using a set of JCPenny house brand luggages. They're called Protocol. The problem is that the midsize one already has its handle ripped off and it's only been used 4 times max. I expected the set to at least last me through my...

OK so here's my story. I'm in college now and I decided to go out of state. Since my school is over 1,000 miles away from home, all my traveling is by plane. As of right now I haven't been home in three months, I've missed spending Thanksgiving with my family and my b-day was last week and I...

Hi all. I was wondering what would be the most effective way of using pb ssr2.5 by hand? My PC is at home which is a thousand miles away and I want to clean up a car for someone who has been very nice to me. I plan on doing it over Thanksgiving weekend so I still have some time. I am going to...

A few days ago I used QEW for the first time. I was amazed at how it worked. But I was wondering, what gives hoseless washes like QEW their properties to make them rinseless? IS it better to use the recommended solution concentration but with more of the solution or a higher concentration with...

Ok, like the title says this is the first time in my 18 year life that I have gotten near a suit. Before yesterday I didn't even know that suits costed that much. So I have a few questions. First, should the suit jacket be snug or give a little? In dress pants I wear a siz 42 which normally...

Hello everybody, by May 1 I will have to make one of the most important decisions in my life, maybe it just seems important now. Picking the college that I will attend. I have been accepted by two colleges in Florida, University of South Florida and Florida State. The oddball college that I was...

My mom's 2004 Camry has a few scratches on it that has started to rust. I was thinking of buying some rust to primer converter to get rid of them, but the directions say to leave it on in excess of 15 minutes so I was wondering if it is safe for the paint. The area is the blackout tape of the...

I am currently a high school senior and for Christmas I got a printer. I do a lot of printing for school work and since its a photo printer I print a lot of pictures too. It uses six separate ink cartridges but at the rate the level meter is going it seems like they will all run out at the same...
