Yep... It's got a hold on me too!

I'd say I'm even more addicted to detailing products - I wake up in the morning thinking about polish and go to sleep thinking about wax!

I was watching the footy (soccer) yesterday and couldn't concentrate coz I was wondering about buying some DACP or #9.

I think I'll get both!

hehe worst is i'd be lying in bed trying to sleep, and i'd be sayin to myself...hmm i wonder if some one replied on that thread, i wanna know wot they said hehe...go check it, get back to bed, and think...oooh i wonder if they sell a certain product in the uk, and search for it ehehe, it was a close call between all the freakin time and 10+ a day

I think someone should set up an Autopia Re-hab Clinic to help us de-tox once every six months!

Some money to be made there I reckon!

I check the forum BID (twice daily). I have learned more from this forum in the past few months than I did on my own the last year and a half. I do think it is odd, though, how much I actually enjoy detailing cars. Last week I did a full exterior detail on my receptionist's Honda Accord. I washed, clayed, DACP'd, then P21 paint cleaner, then AIO and finally SG. Her comment was "this has more shine than when it was brand new 8 years ago."

What I like about detailing is that even if it doesn't work out perfectly, it is always an improvement from where I start. And uniike my sports "obsessions", I don't lose when I detail a car. And there are never ending products and improvemtns in techniques to consider so boredom is not an issue. Thanks to everyone on this board for your help in this obsessive hobby of mine.

Now that I'm up to about four hits a day, I don't think I can get much worse; but then, that's what EVERYONE says about EVERYTHING

Just gotta have my daily fix of Autopia

tnoy66 · 02-23-04, 09:04

Addict here too.......

Work 12hr shifts, as soon as I get in, computer on and I sit and read new posts before I do anything else, sometimes I'm here for a couple of hours and then wonder why I'm hungry (day shifts) or need sleep (night shifts)! Also been known to sit here till after midnight.........when I'm up at 5.30 too!!!!

Right now I should be in getting something to eat before I head to work.......guess I'd better move...................

Wow - I was beginning to worry, I check Autopia no less that five times each day,,if not more. I'm glad I'm not the only one that needs an Autopia fix everyday.

I work out of my home office. If I am on hold for a client, I will check the forum.
