Visited my son in Sonoma, Ca. and ran over to the Russian River brewing in Santa Rosa to get some cases of Pliny the Elder, good stuff. Wish they sold it closer to my location.
I'll be 43 next month and I will say, took a couple weeks off for a vacation, detailing keeps me fit....I got fat eating good food and not working hard. It is a lot of work, but I am used to the hard...
Bought the Mille when first available, I think am going to sell it. Using my 3401 is almost second nature to me having so many hours on the machine, don't even notice any noticeable energy or walking...
Man, I am so thankful I can afford to just by all the machines out there, and try them, instead of just buying a few, becoming a hard core fan boy of the ones I own...
I do tons of coatings now and use the CarPro suede cloths and applicator exclusively. Nice and smooth finish. I buy the large CarPro suede cloths and cut them into applicator size. Cheap and...
IMO, if you love M105 and have tried all the other compounds, then you aren't "stuck" with anything, you have choices and have chosen to use a product that works phenomenal w/ a proven track record....
I've tried darn near every compound out there, and 105 is still one of my most used compounds. Been using it so long. I can see why Larry Kosilla and Kevin Brown love the stuff so much. And I will...
That totally sucks but a base AND clear repaint (w/ blend) is needed to fix that properly unfortunately. Not a cheap fix if done right. I bought a $2K ultrasonic paint depth gauge many years ago...
Sounds like one of the brushes is shot. I have had this happen more than once before. Some of the brushes in the GG6 are less than impressive and can cause a quick failure of the machine....
It's a lot of panel gapping, bodywork, sanding, priming, sanding, priming, sanding, priming etc. There is a massive difference between a typical show car paint job and a best of show concourse paint...
The 3401 spins in the right direction, everything else spins in the wrong direction :xyxthumbs:. I once had an out of the country visitor tell me my toilet flushed in the wrong direction ha. It's all...
You got my respect. I have detailed more than a few of those cars. For some reason they are always beat up and trashed. Plus, for such a small car, they are surprising difficult to detail.
I do it on occasion, but only for small particles, sand etc. And the only reason I use my carpet extractor (mytee HP60) as a pre-vac is because i put dual vac motors in it and get way more CFM and...
FYI, I have ordered quite a few various McKee's 37 gallon sized chemicals and I have very high damage rate (shipping all the way across the US also) , it's has a lot to do with the the McKee's gallon...
