    New Guy out of St. Louis

    Hi All!

    Just joined the forum currently living in STL and originally from Iowa. I have been doing a ton of reading and figured I would join and start contributing. I've always been into detailing but pure hobbyist, never owned a DA , but also particular on handwashing cars(NOT auto car washes) unless its cold winter temps. Huge car guy, since I was a kid I have had a huge love for cars/trucks/anything with an engine. I've been doing repairs, modifications, and detailing for about 15 years now. I have a huge love for mainly american muscle but love any type of fast or cool vehicles/toys. I've pondered into boats/motorcycles a little bit too.

    Current Vehicles:
    The toy - 2015 Mustang GT 50 years edition, Deep Impact Blue, 19K miles, M6, mods: Lund Racing Tune on NGauge, Corsa Sport Catback, Bob's Machine Oil Separator/Catch Can, AFE Dry Flow Air Filter, MGW Shifter, McLeod RST Clutch, Clutch assist spring delete, BMR IRS Cradle Lockout, Ford Racing Track Handling Sway Bars, Ford Racing Performance Pack Shocks, BMR lowering springs, HRE FF01 20" rims and Nitto NT555s

    DD- 2014 Acura MDX SH-AWD, mods: tint and K&N filter

    Latest Detail:
    15 Mustang

    Products recently acquired:
    Mckees N914
    Mckees Coating Prep Wash
    Mckees Iron Remover
    Turtle Wax Hybrid Solutions Ceramic Spray Coating
    Turtle Wax Hybrid Solutions Wet Wax (on order, chose between that and 3 in 1 detailer spray, hopefully I made the right choice to add protection!)
    Interior Brush kit, Mother Wheel well brush from AGO (on order)
    WG German Applicator pads (on order)
    Blackfire Metal Polish (on order)
    Meguiars Hyper Wash
    Turtle Wax Wheel & Tire Cleaner
    Griots Fine Clay Mitt
    Griots PFM drying towel 28x20
    Mckees Glacier drying towel 16x16
    Mckees 480 towel 16x16
    Car Guys Tire Shine
    Lexol Leather Conditioner

    Products i've had awhile:
    Meguiars Gold Class wax (I'm done with traditional waxes besides maybe garage queens)
    Mothers Carnauba Wash (" ")
    Meguiars Quik Detailer
    Meguiars Deep Crystal Paint Cleaner and Polish
    Turtle Wax Carpet Cleaner


    Future Endeavors:

    -Griots G9 polisher with some good compound and finishing polish and pads, good paint prep spray to remove polishing oils

    Awesome! Dogtown STL here. We received a Target order completely swapped from someone there last week, got a FB message from the one that received ours, it was weird since its 30-40 mins from us. Guess they swapped the scan tags, addresses read what they were supposed to

    Welcome to AutogeekOnline!

    You have enough products to start a part-time detail supply company out of your garage, maybe cater to the neighbors?

    If you're in Dogtown head to Seamus McDaniel's on Tamm - best bar burger in St Louis.

    It is no coincidence that man's best friend cannot talk.

    Great burger! Love Pat Tavern's burger as well. I frequent Nora's, Hi Pointe, Seamus and sometimes Felixs. Love being able to walk to food and drinks when I feel like it

    I'm not sure if I could choose between the two, both great! Mac's Tavern when they were in Tamm Ave bar.. those were amazing and I would say comparable to Hi Pointe's thin patty style. Wish they didn't move.
