I live in the Bay Area part of NorCal and at least in my county, they ask people to use no more than 35 gallons of water per day per person. That is for indoors only, outdoor restrictions are a...
I just wanted to share my experience of using some old Lake Country pads and Cobra Crossgroove pads I had in my stash. I didn't want to spend anymore money towards the Rupes 21...
You definitely would want to start with foam pads first. I would say, try some light polishing foam pads first before anything else. Microfiber pads would be fairly aggressive to begin with. If...
I live in the Bay Area where everything is liberal & progressive. If you even as much as disagree with anything they say, you are labeled a "racist" or "bigot" before you can even give the reason why...
The combo has worked out as expected. The downside is occasional waterspots on some panels. I had to pull out CarPro Spotless a few times on my brother's Chevy Colorado truck in metallic black. ...
Hey there Valky, which part of Thailand are you in? I'm currently living in Bangkok right now. I coated my brother's truck here in the PBL coating and topped it off with Synergy.
I'm 5'4" also so I always bring out my Werner work platforms. For most vehicles, I can reach the middle of the roof with a few exceptions. Some of them being a Honda Pilot and F-250 trucks. For...
I take my Saturn out to take spirited runs behind the hills of Martinez and Orinda in the California Bay Area. We have some twisty and fast roads there. Lucky for me, I know those roads very well. ...
That was totally amazing. This is the first time I have seen this write up. You did an awesome job turning around the old SS paint. I thought the paint on my '91 Saturn was old, this is even...
Thank you so much Rob. Ah, you had the pop up headlights I presume. I appreciate the thought man. I haven't tweaked anything with the motor since I drove it. Only added an AEM short ram intake to...
Awesomeness to see old cars looking that good still on the road. Most Camry's I see on the road are driven to hell and back. They are very reliable, but nobody really seems to take care of the...
Thank you. It is because of people I met on the AG Forum that encouraged me to become a better detailer and tackle paint correction when I first started out. I would love to see the look on the...
Thanks man, I take pride in trying to have the best looking first gen around the Bay Area here in California. It ain't your school teacher's old Saturn that's for sure, haha.
Holy jumpin'! That was an amazing job. May I ask how long it took you? That's one heck of a big truck as well. The biggest I've done is a couple of the older '00 ish Ford F-250 with short beds.
Totally awesome work. I hope to work on expensive cars like that one day. It must be totally head turning when the owner takes it outside for a cruise.
I always use the machine. It does the work faster and saves my arms and shoulders for the wipe off. Of course the small areas require application by hand. It makes liquid waxes like Collinite 845...
Not sure if you have ever machine sanded, but that's would I would probably do. I use the Meguiar's sanding discs and preferably the 3inch discs with their interface foam in between just to be a...
Many thanks Nick, I couldn't have done it without your advice and expertise. This project meant a lot to me since it is my very first car and it has a very high sentimental value to me. You are the...
Yes that is exactly what I see with a lot of S-series cars still on the road today. Most people drive their Saturns into oblivion. It is even more rare to find a first generation, let alone, first...
Thank you for all the kind words everyone. I guess part of the reason it looked good to begin with is that my parents had only used it on weekends for the first 13 years. It is also garaged at home...
Plastic panels. I love them as they are very light, and are for the most part, dent proof. Only noticeable problems you will see are the door gaps getting bigger during the cold season, thus you...
