  1. Re: Recomendation for shop lighting and buffer trails questions

    Pads are not even a year old and I only use them on my own cars. So they’ve done probably about 6 cars worth of buffing.

    cleaning them: I soak them to wet, then I use my hands to work/squeeze the...

  3. Re: Recomendation for shop lighting and buffer trails questions

    Maybe, maybe not.

    Sure made it easier to pick up all those little "micro-scratches" that I couldn't see before.

    The trails I never really got to see again after the first round of product...
  4. Re: Recomendation for shop lighting and buffer trails questions

    Got it.

    Buffed a small area on the door that had trails in it. Meguier's polish, polishing pad and the orbital worked it right out. So it seems that the Meguier's detailer spray just isn't what I...

  6. Re: Recomendation for shop lighting and buffer trails questions

    Well, solved my own issue. At least for shop lighting that is.

    :)

    Retail options for portable work lights all run in the $75+ range. I'm not "poor", but I don't like spending money if I don't...

    2 electric hoists. 295 feet of cable each. 0-300 fpm. The second hoist is a backup in the event of failure or cable fouling.

    Hello all.

    I’m not a “detail enthusiast”, but I am a gearhead. Have been my whole life. Cars, trucks, bikes, atv’s, boats, airplanes, helicopters, etc. If it’s got an engine, I’m into it. Paint...
