    Speed Yellow Turbo

    Just got done cleaning the turbo with Chemical Guys Citrus Wash followed by Chemical Guys Black Light Hybrid Radiant Finish on an orange pad with a PC then topped with Todd Cooperider's Esoteric Signature Series Wax. It's 115 today and I'm happy I bought an evaporative cooler for the garage yesterday.

    Cars looks great. How did that cooler work for the garge, just curious? What kind and how much? I have a 3 car garage and was looking into getting one, but I was on the fence about it. Let me know please if you don't mind. Thanks, much appreciated in advance.

    This is what I bought: http://www.homedepot.com/p/Champion-...0#.UdCs0xbvNsg
    I have a 2 car garage and it cooled it down some, but it was still really hot outside. I guess the max you can get is 20 degrees cooler with one off these vs any temp with an AC. I didn't get the AC because of the needed an exhaust.

    Why not go for a mini-split A/C system? Usually they can be installed for less than $2500 and you get year round comfort. I installed one in my garage a few years ago, there's nothing quite like detailing a Harley in 70 degree temps when it's over 100 degrees outside! Totally worth the investment in my opinion.

    Nice 911.

    Is it me or is the paint a bit hazy? The yellow looks good but dosent look very clear. I dont mean to call you out and I am a fanatical BL user and wouldn't use anything more aggressive than a white polishing pad.

    Sorry, forgot to mention, love the 911, definitely looks great! Never been a fan of yellow, but I think I could handle that one!

    The paint was very clear without haze. I typically never use BL on anything other than a black pad. I really don't know why I reached for the orange pad today. I did enjoy the Esoteric wax. This was the first time I've used it and will always keep it available with my other waxes.
