    Well, just wanted to inform everyone about what happened to me yesterday. 2 days ago at work my car got absolutely BOMBED with bird poo. I mean it was a disaster! A couple weeks ago I just finished getting my paint prepped for winter(a coat of Poxy, followed by 3 coats of Victoria Hybrid). I...

    Victoria Wax detail spray

    I have been a huge supporter of the Victoria Wax line up, more specifically their Concours Red wax. If you haven't tried that wax, you really should ASAP. It's an amazing wax for the money, offering shine and depth of waxes three to four times the price. Add to that the fantastic durability and...

    MF pad speed on GG machine

    Just wanted to know what speeds seem to work best with the MF cutting pads on the GG DA machine? I currently have the Meg's pads but will be looking to try out the other brands in the near future. I'll be using M105 and UNO with them.

    Layering Poxy, cure time?

    Quick question about layering multiple coats of Poxy. How long should I wait in between coats? I was assuming it would be best to wait at least 24hrs between coats to assure proper cure time. I did a quick search but didn't come up with anything. Thanks guys!

    HD Avanced polish help!

    I polished my car out last night using HD Advanced Polish. I was using the Griots DA machine at speed 5 for the entire car. I tried the LC Hyrotech tangerine pad and LC flat white pad. With both pads I was struggling with the product at first. It seemed the pad was "gumming" up and slinging...

    What size pads for Griot's polisher?

    Well I am going to be upgrading to the Griot's Garage 6" DA machine. With my older PC I had been using 5.5" pads to get the cut I needed. I know this new machine is more powerful than the older PC model that I have(mine is about 5yrs old). My question is should I just run the stock 6" backing...

    2000 Camaro SS......turbo : )

    Well I did my friends 2000 Camaro SS a few weeks ago for him. I just did a full swirl removal but took my time and took about 8 hrs start to finish. The car is garage kept and has been treated fairly well it's entire life so the paint wasn't too bad. I found the clear coat to be very hard on his...

    07 Black CTS Sport Souveran'd up.....

    If only every dealership had an autopian running their recon derpartment :p Work has been really slow lately so I was bored today and had to keep myself busy. I figured I'd bring in this 07 CTS sport and give the exterior a full treatment. I work for a Pontiac/Cadillac/GMC/Buick dealer and...

    Swirl madness on a 99 Black Cobra!!!

    Well, today I started my friends 99 Mustang Cobra. I have to finish the car tomorrow because I ran out of time today and did not want to rush the rest. This car has been through countless brush car-washes and definetly needed some TLC. When the halogen lights came out, I wanted to cry :cry: I...

    Well, this is my first post on this forum but I have been doing my research for quite awhile on here. I just swirl removed my friends 2004 STi, using my Makita rotory. Sorry for the crappy pics, but I didn't have my tripod with me and the lighting where I was working was horrible, sorry no...
