I too have a Gen 2 GG DA and got a bit concerned when I saw this thread. Took mine apart but could see no visible sign of impending failure, however I did write GG expressing my concern and got a...
Thanks for the replies. Though easier to apply by machine, it's still as hard to get off if applied too thick using either method. I hadn't heard about applying 3 coats. I usually do one, and top it...
I bought some Klasse HGSG for my truck (sits out 24/7) and initially applied a coat using my 6" Griot's DA with a red pad at speed 2. After reading numerous Klass HGSG threads, it seems as though I...
Yes, I will be cleaning wheels. The truck has factory rims, the Matrix has aftermarket aluminum alloy spoked rims that seem to collect a lot of brake dust.
My vehicles, F-150 w/ camper shell and Toyota Matrix, live outside 24/7. I want to start using a waterless, no rinse wash system and need advice regarding the optimal product(s) to use. I...
Finally got around to getting a photo of the completed truck shelter, 10'x16', all metal, all made right here in the USA, 20 year warranty. At 650 lbs. it ain't going anywhere, especially with 10...
Whatever's in it seems to bring out the "warmth" in both grey and silver paints. I put a coat of 845 over DP Poli-Coat and the finish just got better. The silver paint was on a 2004 Matrix that...
After a lengthy delay, much thought and research online, I ended up purchasing an all metal canopy from Versatube. I needed a special size to fit the available driveway space without...
Summer's rapidly approaching and I'm looking for a good solution to protecting the vehicle interior from the sun. I have a 2012 Ford F-150 with a shell, already have a good windshield sun block, but...
I think I'm going to go without a cover. Custom fit, although a great idea, is too much dinero for me. Likely I'll put up a metal tubing canopy with a durable cover material. Just have to figure out...
My new F-150 with a cab-high Snugtop lives outside and sits a good deal of the time. I'm retired, don't drive it very often, and am looking to protect it as much as is practical. Considering a car...
I'd like to get some pics, but right now it's in a tiny garage with barely enough room to work - keep bumping my noggin on the rafters while workin' on the top. :o
I'm in the middle of a wash, clay, polish, seal, then wax on a Ford F-150 with a shell. I gotta tell ya, I have great respect for the guys who make a living doing this. It's a lot of work, hard work....
No, it won't be driven. Reason I asked about the Speed Shine is being worried it might compromise the wax layer bond. I'll be doing all the work using a new GG 6" DA. Used it on my wife's Matrix and...
Thanks Bobby - only thing I have on hand is the Speed Shine. Anything I can make up using household items? Or purchase at Oreilly Auto Parts? That's the only place close that sells exterior care...
New Ford F-150 with a cab-high Snugtop bought in early January, lives outside. I'm planning on a wash, clay, light polish, DP Poli-Coat, and Collinite 845 to top it off. I can't garage the truck and...
Dang, I wish I lived closer - this is a great thing to help out the best friend a man could ever have. Love dogs!!! I have two rescued retired racing greyhounds that I would do anything for. They are...
