ok. enough grumblings on PPF. Anyone can suggest where to buy PPF per ft for a decent price....this stuff is expensive per ft - depending on how wide you guy. I got two made in ~denmark~ jacks coming in I`m looking to pro-tect. My current older made in denmark jacks are fine..just a bit beaten...

Finally down to my last jug of Griots. I posted this before but the last 3 jugs I got - I swear either it`s a bad batch or just reformulation. The lubricity/consistency was not of yesteryears. Terrible analogy but I felt like the old stuff was like 90W oil and my last 3 jugs ere like 35W oil...

I drive quite a hike for things even like my auto alignments or balancing. There is probably a easy 20+ shops in my 10 minute vicinity I frequent but I`d rather drive the 1 hr plus to my tire guy much farther away. Mount/Balance is complely touchless with rubber tools aiding in breaker the...

I`ll have to check my email to see when I ordered it. Replaced entire arm as I could not stand the fading. Coated it on Day 1. It`s been on maybe 14-16 months - I think. Plastic arm is show signs of fade. Eh, off to order another one. I swear, it`s like plastic fades faster these days

Shopping/specing new car. Unfinished wood trim is actually a option. - more fine finish vs. old skool lacquer

I`ve had a bottle of HydroFoam that was gifted to me. Been sitting around forever....used it twice post a thorough washing - sprayed out of my cannon. Car was very lightly dirty so I decided to do a 2BM with HydoFoam as my shampoo. Anyhow, maybe it`s the combo of the the fact that there is SIO2...

Just one of the ugggh moments. Had mobile windshield come out to replace a windshield. Just as the guy was pulling up, I finished washing the car and was in the process of blow drying it - I wanted the car clean so he knew to be super careful. Black paint.....hours later, I spied some dried up...

I purge pretty much almost everything I don`t use.....pads, polishes, trim stuff, etc. But I have no rhyme or reason just short of the what if, but I have a small select stash of nuba` and 2 bottles of glaze I have not touched in like forever. Everytime I think about purghing it, I always tell...

So on that other PPF thread, where it got me thinking about those who don`t know any better so you can`t fault them per se..... Coatings for interiors have been on the market for some time. I only have 1 year on them under my belt. With that said, any know or possible issues with such...

I`ve posted my thoughts on my use of ~lack of~ for auto`s. I do think the pencil pattern is great for nooks and crannies - cupholders and the like. I`ve got some door panels I want to get clean. They are clean surface wise - just some dirt in the graining. Normally, I would spray, brush...

Ah, remember those days. Day long debates on CR spotless, Mytees, Duprays, the works. Where did all the hubba talk go. Did it hit a plateau. Did we all buy our toys and have withered off and gone fishing. Time for a throwback discussion. Yesterday, I was washing the cars, got called off to...

Just blurbing outloud.... My bodyshop guy knows me well enough. He makes sure at the end of the day, I`m not paying deductiable, he kicks back a ~bit~ for me and usually says here, have a nice dinner with the wife or take it to XYZ to get it detailed. They have to polish wherever they paint...

Just tying to put on my thinking cap... On a macro level, what happens to the CC when a panel is dented. And or when a dent is pulled back out ? Granted the CC is sprayed to a flat panel so I would think where the dent *lines* indents in, the CC is stretched/micro fractured... Granted I`ve had...

One of our cars at my Indy getting some stuff done. His shop is small - always done good by me. The mere small lot he is always packed and he shuffles the cars out of the shop and into the street during the day. Sometime today, something backed into / hit into the front door. Which is...
