    Really Need Help Urgently

    Okay, so it is practically 4 am, and I can never sleep anymore unless there is some mechanical noise or perhaps it gets to be 7am, and then I am dragging myself to work remotely.


    Ironically, I had a friend over a few weeks ago to let him polish his truck, and I fell asleep in my chair. He brought another vehicle... same thing.

    Turns out the noise of a DA knocks me out cold if I am not actively doing something else or running the machine.


    Wherefore, I respectfully ask any of you to post a LONG video of a car detail. I don't care if it is six hours of glass polishing ... that would be PERFECT.

    Thanks for any help you can provide.

    Maybe a looped 5 minute video is better unless you want to hear me curse every 20 mins and explain to my wife every hour why it takes so long.

    Sorry, can't help with the DA lullaby, but I was talking to someone today who uses a white noise generating ap in their phone to help them get to sleep, and they were saying when they turn it on, their German Shepherd goes and gets on his bed, and goes to sleep as well. Maybe try something like that.

    Im sure you can find one of Matt's videos on the Obsessed Garage channel. I have just watched him wash a car for over an hour once. Then for excitement, I watch a little golf.

    Search eBay for the DVD Richard Lin and I made back in 2006 - 2 hours and 30 minutes L-O-N-G!




    It was the first video that showed how to do paint correction from start to finish - no mock-up as in ZERO mock-up. It is today STILL the only video/dvd ever made that shows how to buff out a car from start to finish.

    There's no,

    Now watch me buff out the hood and then use your imagination on how to do the rest of the car.

    White noise machine is a must for me. I can't sleep without one.

    I bought a pair of high quality speakers just to go to sleep to nature sounds on Spotify. The ones with some birds (but, not too many) really work for me.

    Funny how people differ for that stuff. White noise machines drive me nuts, whenever I’m around one I hate it. I actually hate any noise that wasn’t supposed to be there. My wife says I have issues and need a shrink.
