I'm currently outside working on the hood right now. I've got the flood lights out and I'm buffing away with meguiars #9. As soon as I finish I'll be apply a few coats of Klasse AIO to the entire hood.

I'm then going to wait until tomorrow. I'll rewash the whole truck cause it is raining right now (I've got the front end of my truck under my carport) and to help remove all the polish. I'll then reapply AIO to the hood. I then be applying Klasse SG to half the hood and a wax of your choice to the other side. I'll be putting on around 3 coats of Klasse SG over the next few days. Then I'll tell you what they look like after a fresh coat of the products are put on. I'll then give you an update a few days later.

To chose the wax simply vote here:

Thank you
 
Pic of hood currently. Hard to take pictures with those darn flood lights on. Messes up the cameras light adjustment and focus. Grrr POS camera!
 
looks good thusfar....... is the paint on that truck a metallic? looks like some flecking in that around the light reflections.....



:up
 
yhea, the paint is metallic. IT is deep wedgwood blue. Trust me. It actually looks blue in the sun :p



Some of the bigger spots in the second pic are splatter. Look over on the right side (drive side) and you can see little white specs. That is splatter that I didn't wipe up. The paint looks pretty good except for some of the scratches that I couldn't get out. I'm going to colorsand the hood to get the scratches out but I'm going to do that later. I'll take it into a paintshop first to see how much it'll cost to repaint the hood. Just wanna know how much damage I could cause :D

I love my rotary. Only wish it didn't have that stupid loop handle!

Sennheiser CX200
http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Sennhei...ones/9265305.p?id=1218071608943&skuId=9265305

Pioneer SE-CL21M-J-K
http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Pioneer...lack/1377345.p?id=1218254504847&skuId=1377345

And the Kicker 09EB101B
http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Kicker+...lack/9647509.p?id=1218137493040&skuId=9647509

Mods, feel free to remove my inks, they are not to another detailing site, just to bestbuy.

by the way, I have a 45 dollar budget, and anything with a metal casing will be splendid.

I've gone through probably 8-9 different sets of earbuds. From sony, skullkandy, bose, etc...

These beat them all, HANDS DOWN.

They are inexpensive, sounds as good as if not better than the bose, have great highs and excellent bass, and they are SUPER comfortable. They come with 3 different foam sizes so you will find a pair that fits. If I leave them at home and have to use my back-up pair (kept for audio emergencies lol) which are sony, it almost feels like a punishment (in sound quality and especially comfort).

Also, they are not noise cancelling, but they seal SO well, I've had someone yell at me litterally from the other side of the bed of my truck (with volume on my Ipod at 60-70%) and I couldn't hear them. They are amazing when doing correction work with a noisy rotary or DA.

I have had the skull-candy in many different flavors, as has my friend who is an audio-guru. Best bang for the buck is the JVC marshmallows as GoFast Posted, but some of the Skull Candy are sufficient.

I have a pair of SkullCandy Full Metal Jackets that I just opened and due to having a few other pairs on hand I would be happy to send to you if you are interested. I wore them a few times but have not used any of the rubber buds included. It has the Ipod remote attached too.
 
Funny two people here recommend JVC, while 4/5 people on bestbuy.com gave them one star. Anyway, I have some sennheisers and they are fantastic. I guess it can be subjective and depend on fit. I've been wanting to find some good bluetooth ones to avoid the cord. Haven't found any yet.
 
Mo,
I have been in the A/V business for years, and in my opinion the best ear buds are Monster Cable's Beats By Dr. Dre. They have amazing range and incredible base for ear buds. They are not cheap by any means, but if you are looking for pure performance, these are the way to go.

Wow I'm kinda shocked at those reviews.. They really are excellent. My ears are pretty sensitive and I've always had trouble finding ones that weren't painful, but these are perfect.

The sound has never sounded tiny, or muddy or anything like that and they do have good bass.

Well I sure like em.

I have these, but for skiing there crap, the control talk gets all jumbled up and messes with your songs.
 
I've experimented with quite a few options for running and the newest in-ear option from Bose are fantastic. I had the original version as well, but they didn't secure into your ear like the new style.

Good luck!
