    Re: PC 7424XP stripped threads

    I think the spindle is turning (as it should)... the wrench is to hold the spindle while you hand tighten the pad or backing plate to the spindle...

  3. Re: i think my brand new car was repainted at the factory

    I have a 2011 Jeep Patriot in Mineral Grey Metallic. I ordered the car and picked it up the day after it was delivered. After I brought it home and was doing a good walk around, I noticed the RH rear...
  4. Re: i think my brand new car was repainted at the factory

    I purchased a used 2003 Corvette last October. The build date for the car is 11/14/2002. I have a car report that indicates severe damage reported on 11/29/2002, left front impact with another...
  5. Re: TLC needed - '03 50th AE Convertible, 66K miles

    The wheel wells... I need to get the car on jack stands, pull the wheels, clean the backside of the wheel, the calipers, brake rotor hats and the wheel wells. There is not much room between the tire...
  6. Re: TLC needed - '03 50th AE Convertible, 66K miles

    Wow. The OND as a QD took off a layer of grime that Westleys Bleche Wite Tire Cleaner and a brush left behind. The tires now look as if they still have release agent on then. Not a bad look and not...
  7. Re: TLC needed - '03 50th AE Convertible, 66K miles

    I picked up a 24 oz spray bottle while I was in town yesterday. I added 1 oz of ONR to 16 oz of filtered water to make a ONR QD. I will give the tires/wheels a little detail today and post the...

    Re: Orange peel

    I have a 2011 Mineral Grey Metallic Jeep Patriot that has a very "piled" look to the paint. As if the paint were applied, then hit with a blower.

    Re: XPEL VS. 3M Clear Bra

    Nice. I am sure the Coupe has the same problems with "non-owners" closing the hatchback and placing/removing items from the rear. I can open/close the rear of my Vert w/o touching the paint...

    Re: XPEL VS. 3M Clear Bra

    Whatever you get, do it quickly after purchase. I have 3M on the front bumper/hood/fenders and mirrors of my C5. I wish I had it on the rear edge of my deck lid and area aft of the deck lid. You may...

    Re: Washing and Detailing for Apartment Living

    I just ordered a gallon of ONR, on Amazon, from PBMA. $41.94 shipped.
  15. Re: TLC needed - '03 50th AE Convertible, 66K miles

    I failed to express myself correctly. The area of concern is on the paint of the hood, aft of the bra. The bra has (prior to the SD trip) a nice gloss/shine.

    Hmmm... I bet a pic would help. Huh,...
  16. Re: TLC needed - '03 50th AE Convertible, 66K miles

    Gotcha. I think I need to try the paint correction on a warmer day. One where I want to be outside and enjoy the process.

    Hmmmm... A camera... Yes, I have one of those...
  17. Re: TLC needed - '03 50th AE Convertible, 66K miles

    During the MLK weekend, my wife and I drove the C5 to San Diego and back. The weather in SD was nice enough to drop the top. The evening of our return, a storm system was entering the NORCAL area....
  18. Re: TLC needed - '03 50th AE Convertible, 66K miles

    Using the PC at 6 and 5 seemed to allow the tool to do it's job. It just felt better and seemed easier. The car has a clear bra. I taped off the "bra line" and worked up to the tape. I need to go...
  19. Re: TLC needed - '03 50th AE Convertible, 66K miles

    33*F in the shade when I started. The rinse water was freezing in the spotted shadows that were on the driveway. Claying the hood and trunk lid picked up an amber material (sap? pollen?). Ran the PC...
  20. Re: TLC needed - '03 50th AE Convertible, 66K miles

    My detail supplies are here. Tomorrow I am going to wash the car using the two bucket method, prep the surface (clay bar/detail spray) and sub-surface (D300) of the trunk lid and polish the trunk lid...

  23. Re: TLC needed - '03 50th AE Convertible, 66K miles

    Okay, the UPS truck came yesterday. I now have my first automotive detailing book, The Art of Detailing, by Mike Phillip's and there is a PC DA machine under the Christmas tree. Time to start a fire,...
  24. Re: TLC needed - '03 50th AE Convertible, 66K miles

    I read that the counter weight (CW) in the PC 7346SP is designed for a 6" backing plate (BP). I also read that a 6" BP and 6.5" pad exceeds the recommenced attachment gram weight for operation, of a...
  25. Re: TLC needed - '03 50th AE Convertible, 66K miles

    I just got an e-mail notification from UPS. My copy of "The Art of Detailing" will be delivered Friday.
