    Colorbond? Anyone used it?

    I found a thread about it while looking through forums of a vehicle we're looking at for the gf. Apparently it's factory match "paint" used on plastic, leather, vinyl, whatever. This could work great as I have these annoying scuffs on my new seat. Colorbond from BrynDana International Ltd...

    Drill to pads adapter at harbor Freight - $6

    Not sure if this is really a great deal or not, but it seemed nice to me. 5 Piece 2-In-1 Car Polishing Kit - Auto Care - Automotive & Motorcycle Looks like it uses standard backing plates too, so it might be a cheap backing plate for your DA.

    AA Spray Wax

    So I broke down and bought some of the Armor All wheel protector stuff, and decided to try out their spray & shine wax stuff. Seems like it'll work out well as a between waxes booster. Anyone tried it yet?

    OH NO! More talk of brown tires! WHY GOD WHY?!

    I've done quite a bit of reading about what causes the tires to brown, and all sorts of things of that nature. So here's an interesting question I pose to you guys. I've switched to water based dressings on my tires, specifically 4Star tire dressing. As we all know, it's water based so when...

    Free E1 Gel Wax after Rebate

    Saw this on another forum, wasn't sure how it fell through the cracks here. FREE: New Gel Wax! I haven't gotten any of it yet, but I'm inclined to think it'll be a synthetic sealant similar to NXT. They tout it as a wipe on wipe off product, no haze time or anything. Kinda wondering if it...

    Outlander opinions?

    So my gf and I are in the market for something a little bigger than her PT Cruiser Turbo. Realistically, she needs a decently sized vehicle around here. She doesn't like most SUVs unfortunately because they're too "boxy" Anyways, one of the vehicles that she actually does like is the...

    Review: P21S Bodywork Cleansing Lotion

    So today I decided I was going to try out this wash. But a large part of this review involves stuff going on before the wash... I got this stuff free for filling out a questionnaire on P21s Cockpit Cleaner at Detailfest. I had kinda forgotten about it when it showed up at my door. First...

    Ramblings on the economy

    So something I've noticed lately, is that the economy still sucks, and is actually probably worse than it was around this time last year. But people aren't talking about it as much, and it seems like people have just sort of... accepted it. But the thing that I don't get is how a year ago...

    Mothers Reflections Top Coat not on top?

    Anyone ever tried this seemingly oxymoronic idea? Top Coat appears to be more or less a nice glaze, similar to something like RMG or DWG. Top coat is recommended as a top layer product for when you REALLY want it to look nice, but seeing as how many use RMG and DWG as a base coat underneath...

    HD Products Review

    I had the chance to sample the entire lineup of HD products for our use at my install bay at Best Buy.(thank you DB!) We just tested them out over the weekend on the nastiest car we had, a 2001 Dodge Durango that belongs to my bay senior. He uses it for going out into the woods to ride 4...

    Interior Masters - Is this too much?

    So I've been looking for a new interior for my car, unfortunately, it's rather rare. I found a set, but its at a junkyard and has definitely seen better days. I'm not sure if this will "buff out" more or less. This thing is incredibly dirty, I've got products that I could probably clean the...

    Anyone ever used any of this stuff (it goes by a few names, one of them is Neffy). Have been considering wrapping my center console and a few other places with this stuff since the paint is chipping(GM "quality" ftl). Curious if anyone had any experience with it. I hear the BMW guys are all in...

    FEELER: Audio equipment for sale

    I've been thinking about starting over (more or less) audio wise in my car and my gf's car. Considering selling most of my stereo and her amps to make room/finances for the new setup. I don't have any of the original boxes or manuals for these, and all equipment is in perfect working order...

    Forced into being a pro? Thoughts?

    So, for those of you who may or may not know, I work for Best Buy doing car installs. The pay isn't great, but it's a decent PT job while I'm in school. So today the GM comes in and is talking about how he wants to try having us do details, because there's another store that does details...

    New tires... what OTC dressing?

    So I've seen some ramblings on how silicone based tire dressings aren't good for the tires long term. I've got some new tires on the way, and so I want to get a tire dressing that is water based to avoid any complications from a silicone based dressing. Are there any OTC water based tire...

    Boat questions

    So I'm going to be detailing one of my Uncle's boats. It's a smaller boat he only uses for when he can't take his bigger boat out on the ocean. It's currently sitting on a trailer next to the carport at this house(my parents let him keep it there). It's not a super high dollar job, it's a cheapo...
