    Yeah, that was a shocker. My detailing cabinet fell from the wall (the back came off!) and bam, right into the side of my car. My poor s100 got crushed, but luckilly my Porter Cable is ok, as are almost all of the products, which is good cause I didn't realize how much money I've wasted on products (mostly thanks to you, AUTOPIA! )

    I need a new cabinet.

    Luckilly for me, it didn't dent anything, just scrached up the quarter panel and the bumper, but with some FI-II, SMR, SEPC and all, you can't even tell there was a scratch there. I have no complaints with VW/AUDI paint.

    So, a reminder to everyone, go check your cabinets and make sure they are secured.

    Wow, that must've given you a heart attack when you saw that!

    I'm surprised (but relieved ) that it didn't do all that much damage.

    Yeah, my heart skipped a beat when I heard the BAM!

    Anyway, picked up a heavy duty plastic cabinet just now and am going to go put it together now.

    Haha, I just found it funny that the S100 got axed badly and the only reason why I got it was because of you all! :P

    The "Godly" s100.

    Maybe the Zymol did this to me because it's pissed I stopped using it.

    I think the Zymol and the S100 had turf war going on, so the cranky old Zymol made sure that the plucky new S100 had an "accident"....
