    Greetings from chilly Alabama

    Hey all!
    New member from Mobile, Alabama, where the temperature is a balmy 30 degrees.
    I just received my new G100 yesterday, replete with pads, wash mitt, and Meg's Speed Glaze. Have a Bosch 1370 DEVS on the way that I won on eBay. Have all chemicals, towels, supplies, 2 buckets, and brushes primed and ready to rock and roll.
    I picked up this OCD hobby of ours about 2 weeks ago, read hundreds of posts and opinions, have spent about $300 or so on the aforementioned merchandise, but have not yet done anything to my vehicles, other than QD and California mop my dash at stoplights.
    Too cold!!!! Hopefully the temp will moderate by the weekend and I can test my newfound knowledge and merchandise.
    Speaking of Bosch, anyone have any experience on using it, or the settings (dual mode)?
    I haven't seen much posted on that model.

    Bebo's is alive and kicking on Airport Blvd near the mall.
    Thanks all for the welcome. Hopefully, some other OCD soul has used the Bosch?
    Errrr.....maybe not. Maybe I'll be the first to review it! Maybe after a couple months of use, if I work up the nerve to use it instead of the G100.

    Chilly and Alabama, there are two words that usually don't go together!

    Anyhow, from a fellow newbie...welcome!

    Welcome, I drove through Alabama last week when I pick a car up in Memphis. The weather there was pretty nice back then.
