I wanted to post up a quick review of a product that I bought recently. It is the Astro 50SL color correct LED flash light for paint correction. Definitely a scangrip knock off from the looks of it. I got it for about 70 off of amazon and it is the first light I have owned that lets me see the...

I am going to teach a detailing class to some friends (4-10) in a few weeks. All 101 type stuff and things that I am fairly comfortable with. My overall agenda is below and I am targeting 4 hours with some extra time afterwards if people want to try a particular product etc... So I would like...

I never really got into the snow foam/foam cannon thing, but I recently upgraded my pressure washer and bought a cheap foam cannon off of the net to play with. After reading some UK forums (it seems they love their foam cannons) It appears the correct sequence is: 1. Pre-Rinse 2. Foam 3. Let...

Hi everyone, It has been a while since I posted and I just took advantage of the 4th of July deals from Autogeek to stock up on Clay. I purchased 2 jars of PB clay and they arrived today; I noticed that they feel softer and are darker in color, has the formula changed? Mine could be soft as it...

So I had to take my beloved Subie from her warm Virginia garage to her natural habitat when we visited family north of Boston over the weekend. My phone said -6 (feels like -29) and my poor engine agreed when I finally woke her up for the drive home. My only regret is not having more time to...

I would just like it to be known that I am an Idiot for never having Pro-Polish in my arsenal until recently. I have a plethora of polishes from multiple makers and usually if paint is really picky a Maroon HT or black finishing pad with Menzerna 4500 has never let me down. Well I was working on...

In the past when I have restore headlights for friends I have purchased a megs kit or similar and always had great results. This time I decided to go big and purchased a box of 3000 unigrit foam disks and opti-lens. however I still needed some lower grit disks so I went out and picked up a 3m...

I've been in the mood to try a new AIO and from the review I have read PWS is a chemical cleaner right? Would it be possible to add a drop or two of SSR1 with PWS on a white LC pad for a little more cut. thoughts?

So I thought I would share my recent experience. I have never had a piece of clay get moldy before but when I checked my clay container yesterday the last piece I used was growing a little colony. Thankfully eventhough I keep all my clay in my PB clay container I put each piece in it's own...

Just out of curiosity I 've noticed that my latest bottle of EX-P (3 months ago ish) is a bit easier to work with and stays in a more consistent liquid form than the previous bottle (1.5yrs old ish) If so: Go Poor Boys! If not: Maybe I am mistaken -Roy

I always love the weird looks I get when I talk to friends and co-workers about this hobby :) I mentioned to a friend that with this storm comming it is going to rain on Sun, Mon and Tue so I better wash my car on Saturday. He asked me why on Earth would I bother washing my car before a storm...

I have a friend who finally cares about her car and I wanted to start her off right so here is a little kit I put together for her. Definitely not everything one would want but a darn good start (on a side note I bought some other towels that look a lot like DMT towels but they ended up being...

What was your most profound detailing revelation, maybe something you learned after you thought you knew everything? For me it was almost a year after I got into this and one of the senior guys here mentioned thatI didn't have to dedicate a pad to a certain product forever. I knew to clean them...

So I finally got around to cleaning up my interior after a long road trip and I found a spot I am having trouble with so I figured i'd ask on a few forums and see if anyone has some advice. My wife spilled a little bit of a drink (it is either coffee or diet coke) on the interior door panel...

I can't remember if we have a random pictures thread or not. Anyways I bought a new lens for my camera and I was out taking some pics when this guy came down the hill. I think it is a 50s Chevy Bel Aire. I thought it was cool enough to share.

I would like to suggest theat the next improvement to the Natty's line include a scent for Natty's Blue paste. While the distinctive Wax/Crayon smell isn't bad it isn't up to par with the intoxicating scent of big league chew...er..I mean Natty's red :). just a thought

As I build up my stock pile of detailing stuff I started to ponder how many pads I should own and if I really needed to keep a pad dedicated to a specific product. So here is my question. If I use a finishing polish like M205 or Swirl x, SSR1 etc...and try it on a white pad then if that...

I finally got around to getting some Poor Boys stickers and now I have found a home for them :) I'm not sure if I am sold on where I put the sticker on the car so we'll see if it sticks around.

I'm sure most of us keep a stash of chemicals in the car to clean up on the spot. I thought it migh be good to see what everyone carries and how they stow it. Here is mine: Chemicals: -QD+ -Bug Squash -A Spray Sealant -Interior Cleaner -Leather cleaner and conditioner -(Not Pictured)...
