What do you....
Listen to your ipod / iphone while you polish/correct paint? If you do what do you listen to?
I always have my iphone while I am working and I always am listening to music. I mostly listen to Christian Rock or something of the like.
Whats your preference?

Re: What do you....
Heh heh, I bet I'm unusual in that I don't listen to *anything* while I detail.
Even though the shop's all wired with a nice stereo, I simply don't like to have anything on when I'm working (on just about anything). According to my wife, it's a matter of my learning style and how I work with auditory vs. kinesthetic stuff.

Re: What do you....
I am also one of those weird types that likes to have quiet around me when I am working on something.

Re: What do you....
I have some fairly random tastes when it comes to music so if I am listening to music it will be anything from death metal to frank sinatra... to say my music collection is eclectic is an understatement. LOL
Of course if the Angels are playing I've got the play by play going on AM 830... GO HALOS!!

Re: What do you....
....depends on my mood. This weekend I was listening to my Miles Davis albums while mulling around the garage and washing the cars. I will typically listen to jazz as a music choice and other times I just prefer silence.

Re: What do you....
I usually listen to the Wave here in So Cal. which is basically smooth jazz. Nothing too crazy and it serves as easy background music.

Re: What do you....
I usually like it quiet to work...If polishing...I have on my ear protection. If you use a real polisher ear protection as well as eye protection and a RESPIRATOR are MUSTS! Pros dont listen to music while preparing expensive vehicles PROS CONCENTRATE! This submitted with all do respect of course. I will be doing a 380,000 dollar Gullwing Burgundy.... I will be compounding this vehicle that was just sanded in preparation for me. The radio WONT BE ON !!!!! My full concentration will be engaged...an error could cost me DEARLY. NO RADIOS or interruptions ...I will post the pics on my site when it is done.

Re: What do you....
I listen to upbeat, positive stuff to keep me from going crazy. Usually its some sort of Christian rock. Maybe some Anberlin in there.
Also, Im a huge fan of talk radio. And I like listening to the local sports broadcasts.

Re: What do you....
Part of my technique is listening to the finer nuiances of the wheel. It's the only thing I listen to when I'm detailing. Until I get to the interior. Then I'll just turn on the radio and listen to whatever.
