    I've been using power gloss for years now and its never let me down. Ive got lots of experience with 105 too, but I much prefer menzerna.

    I was doing a polish at the local chrysler dealer a couple weeks ago when this charger rolled in. Apparently a young guy won it, but didn't want it so he sold it to the dealership. This thing is...

    Re: stick shift vs. paddle shifters

    Yes!! I agree 100%! A loud badass sports car going down the street goes from wicked to lame real fast once you realize its an automatic! I guess autos are better for the drag strip but for cruising?...
  6. Re: Why do some people mask off before detailing and some do not?

    I tape areas where I need to get up real close to an edge or trim. Especially when using M105 as its such a bear to clean up if it comes in contact with plastic.

    Re: stick shift vs. paddle shifters

    I drove a Ferrari F430 last year and thought it was awesome to have the chance to drive one. However I thought it would be so much more fun if it had a 6-speed rather than paddles. Paddles just can't...

    Re: Problem with my 7424XP

    Thats so weird to hear of this happening. I bought a 7424xp for a detail shop I worked at. I beat the hell out of it daily for over a year and when I left that job, it was still working like it did...
  10. Re: What products "WOW" you every time you use them?

    Menzerna S34, PO83, and 106FA.

    I jumped on the 105/205 bandwagon for a brief time but it wasn't long before I ran back to Menzerna, its where I am happiest!

    I also really dig Collinite 845,...

    To be clear, the disgusting pig comment was my way of lightening things up! I don't bad mouth customers or shame them for having dirty vehicles, that is stupid. I do the work, they are happy with the...

  17. Re: 23 YEAR OLD swirls on top of swirls - 88' Red Honda Civic pix/vids

    The transformation of that car is absolutely amazing. Outstanding job! Personally I think transformations like this one are much more impressive than the typical ferrari/lambo details that we see on...

    You did an amazing job on that car, well done! I was looking at the last couple pics for a while and to me it looks like the rear tires are on backwards!
