This is my 02 Bonneville SSEi. Ive posted pics of it on here before, but not really since I finished the engine build. Over the course of about a year, this car went from a pretty basic SSEi with some bolt ons to one of the wildest bonnevilles I know of. It all started with a misdiagnosed...

I don't go to a lot of carshows as of the past few years because I'm usually at the track instead. this morning though, I headed over to check it out. As usual there was a helathy spattering of exotica and generally nice cars. However, I was absolutely floored at the condition of some of...

I was entirely too tired of the swirls that have developed over the past few years and I really needed a fresh coat of LSP. What better time than the hottest weekend of the season? How about the hottest weekend of the season while I have the worst cold I can remember! :target::frusty: I didnt...

I was struck early this morning with an odd and strong urge to buy some supplies. In my semi-sumberous stupor, I mistakenly ordered some OptiSeal, rather than the OptiCoat I was after. Its been so long since ive actually researched products that Im not terribly surprised I made the mistake...

Im on the cusp of making my DA purchase but I cant figure out what products I want to start with. I was looking at a PC bundle with the Pinnacle twins and two CCS pads, yada yada... Ive settled on a GG DA however and thus the bundle Im looking at comes with 2 white, 2 grey and 1 blue pad. I...

Not finding much on what the quick detailers of choice are. I dont need a seperate clay lube and spray wax and clearcoat massage oil/aromatherape scented misting agent. Just a good slick, clean QD I can use for drying, clay and touchups. Im dead tired of Megs QD. I tried a little bit of a purple...

I searched long and hard to find my car, an 02 Bonneville SSEi in good enough shape to satisfy my tastes. The clear on these cars is about as hard and durable as a coat of peanutbutter, so most of them look pretty bad. Mine was as pristine as any id seen. During my detail on it, I noticed it had...

Heres my 02 Bonneville SSEi. Not the cooles car out there, but suits my tastes pretty well. I did an HID retrofit with FX45 bixenon projectors, i run HIR bulbs boosted to 15 volts in the highbeam location and Im working on retrofitting the projector fog lights into the factory fog light housings...

I recently broke my thumb racing motorcycles and during my recovery I neglected to trim my fingernails on that hand for some reason or other. I ended up putting a three inch long series of concentric knicks in the leather of my steering wheel. Is there any way to remedy this? Its really an...

What is he preferred product for cleaning and conditioning perforated leather? Creams and whatnot would plug the holes and I've been using wipes forever because of the lack of options. What's the word on this?

I really want to get into machine polishing with a PC and see if I can eventually make my money back on friends and family members' cars. I'm not absolutely certain what products I'll need to cover *most* bases. So far the shopping list is: -PC polisher -Finishing pads (what kind? How...

I really like the protection and long lasting properties of Liquid Glass, but it has no filling and always seems to hologram a little on black. I'm wondering if I can apply a wax with a nice gloss and filling properties like NXT on top of a couple coats of LG. Would the solvents in NXT just...

Does anyone here like to use a wax or other LSP on glass? I typically use RainX on my windshield, but mirrors and side windows get pretty spotted up with it. Also, do many people polish the glass to get rid of hard water stains and to get it looking its best?

I've always been rather obsessive about my vehicles' appearance, but up until recently it was in the walmart detailing aisle sense. I've always had dark blue metallic cars where swirls weren't obvious and I was unaware that better results were available to mere mortals. So, now that I have a...

Hello there. Ive always been rather obsessive about my vehicles' appearance, but since getting a BLACK car, Ive decided to kick my techniques to the next level.
