Hello All ! This place could be addictive !

Greetings from NJ !

Just wanted to say Hello!

I`ve already learned some things just by reading the posts over the last couple of weeks. I don`t know what`s more addictive, spending time here or detailing my car!!! :D :D :D

I became interested in this site when I needed info on waxes & car detailing. I just picked up a new Acura TL-S and after stripping off the dealer`s wax began applying Black Fire .
So far I`m liking what I see. I plan to layer P21s over it.

All the discussions on the topic have been very helpful.

Thanks all !

Welcome to DC.

Welcome to the dark side.:D

The more the merrier.

Welcome to DC! When you start to notice what a dust magnet Blackfire is you`ll have a good group of guys to come to and learn how to remedy the situation. :D Blackfire looks great but it is a little bad on the dust attraction side. Let us know what you think of it. :)

Oh, one other thing... Do you respect the mullet? :D

Welcome Doc, glad to have another Jerseyan here. Nice area of NJ your`re from. I bet you`all look forward to us "Bennies" going home at the end of the summer :) .

Anyway, nice new car...best of luck with it. Take your time and enjoy keeping it spiffy. And most of all...pics pics pics!

Thanks for the "Welcomes". It seems like a nice community of fellow detailing addicts. My wife is convinced that I`m beyond any rehabilitation ay this point! I tell her, at least it keeps me of the streets!!!

Natty, where do you live? Are you really a "bennie"? (that`s ok, you sound like a nice guy!) :D
Actually, there is no difference in the traffic any more after Labor Day. This area is so overcrowded with people and cars I think I`m ready to move to North Dakota!

Anywho......a quick question: I have these annoying little "warning signs" on the sun visors of my new car about the air bags and child protection. etc. I don`t know how to get them off. They aren`t "decals" that you can just peel off, they seem to be a part of the plastic side of the visor that covers the vanity mirror. I tried lifting a corner with an exacto knife but all that does is scratch the visor - that`s why I don`t think it`s a decal. It`s probably "hermetically sealed"!!! Plus, on the fabric side of the visor a smaller label is really stuck. I think that sucker is on with super glue!

Any thoughts on this???

Thanks again guys!

Not a bennie is the true sense of the word. My grandparents owned a house and bungalo on 16th ave. in Belmar for many many years. I spent a good portion of my childhood down there. The area has certainly changed.

We are renting a house in LBI next week. The wife and kids (and I) are looking forward to spending time together and forgetting about the daily routines for a short while.

As for those warning decals....I know exactly what you mean and personally I wouldn`t touch them. The chance to do more damage than good is very real. I agree, they all seem to be heat glued which would make them difficult to remove easily.

Welcome and listen to Natty...:rolleyes:

Those are not removable for a reason;)

I can`t believe those little buggers can`t be removed. They are most annoying. In fact when I have the visor down that yellow and red warning sticker sits right in my face. More of a distraction I`d say.

If anyone comes up with a brilliant idea as to how to get rid of them please let me know. Of course, I could always rip them out of their sockets!!!
