Hello from Los Angeles, California!

Hey Autopia,

I guess I'm new here, I've been browsing the forums for almost a year now, but I never registered yet, so I just registered and it's great to be able to input knowledge and and ask questions here! My ride is a 2006 MINI Cooper S, I'm active over on the MINI forums, and in the local MINI/Mini clubs around here, and a few Euro clubs too, so if anyone is local you might have seen my car around! Here are some pictures of her!

So far I've been using mostly OTC stuff I have had a friend polish out my car with Menzerna polish and I have used Swissvax I forgot which one as a LSP before. I have also borrowed a friend's PC and polished her out too. From since I owned the car I tried many different brands, I been from Clay Magic for the clay to Mothers which I'm pretty happy with, I usually wash and wax with Meguiars NXT now I use NXT 2.0 topped with Mothers Reflection Top Coat I used to use #26 as a LSP, but I like to try new products! My usual wash consists of making sure everything from the body to the wheel well even the barrel of the wheels are clean! I try to quick detail the car down every time I drive it, I can't stand a dirty car, even the dealer I take the car to, knows not to ever touch it with their wash, and they make sure not to get my car dirty! But then again the car is a 2006 with 5k miles, I think it's near 6k now!

But onto the fun part! I just bought a PC myself today, on eBay here is the link I offered him a price and he accepted! I hope to put it to good use, I bought the Meguiars G100 which I heard is the same as the PC 7424, also would anyone happen to know if the lifetime warranty transfers over to the 2nd owner, I would think it does, but just double checking, and also does anyone know what pads those are, the seller didn't really know, he said he got it from a site called 'autodetailingsolutions.com'

Motor On!
Joe
