Cannot locate one of the above to look for myself and a search wasn't a help, is the Makita Japanese or Chinese?

Met a fellow who lives in the rustbelt and had his '86 Dodge pu treated with the above straight from the showroom, the truck was as solid as the day it was made-it had over 1/4 million miles (Cummins), impressive, anyone else have any comments??

and another product on gel coat (rv) could you tell me what you noticed to be different? looking to see if there is something else I should be considering. Just how important is it to use a product that is formulated for gel coat?? and I guess I really need to get straight on if fiberglass and...

Makita, Flex and the PC types which one IS the best and why; lets disregard the pricing and type about the machine only. I would appreciate comments as to which is easier to control, which is easier to listen to and which does the most correction though the use will be on surfaces which are in...

I have to narow it down to four all equal in their amazingness; The wifes current ride, a Subaru XT Sports Forester with the WRX 224 hp turbo; stupid fast ( and I mean really stupid fast) , 30 mpg if you can keep off the fun pedal and with the added ability to go through 16" of snow with no...

Thanks to Paul S for inspiring this thread. The closest we come is a '07 Subaru Forester XT Sports, the WRX engine BUT it does have a hood scoop so a 'true' sleeper it is not, but dang that thing goes like stink and if you keep the boost gauge neutral to negative you can get 30mpg-to me this...

Bill's great dream thread got me blasting back and hence the question; For me it was a '68 Charger R/T 440 magnum that my rich cousin -let- me use for an evening, that was a night to remember... Next, my brother had this great friend that always needed cash, he used to rent me his '66/'68...

Curious, how many of us can begin to understand just how large a trillion is, some time ago I emailed the Treasury Dept and asked how long it would take them to print one trillion dollars in one dollar bills, to my surprise I got an answer back in a couple of weeks from the Bureau of Engraving...

I did appreciate members calling the Aquapel product to my attention and I did try it but the stuff is horrible. Those familiar with RainX know that when a raindrop hits the windshield the drop frags into a zillion particles and they all just scoot off the glass. My experience with Aquapel is...

Just curious about the members car history; How many, and how many new.. Me about a dozen, first new vehicle was a '73 Jeep CJ 5 that I paid $3,500 for, followed by another five, three Jetta TDI's and two p/u trucks.

Hands down for me our VW Jetta and Audi A4-beyond bad-horrible angle. Now the dw's new Subaru Forester, sweet......

HAVE to spend on a new detail shop-its the rule;how would you set it up? Mine: I am thinking it would be about 100x60 so I could get very large vehicles inside, the ceiling would be high enough to accomdate a 14' door, well maybe doors. The construction would be block/steel with a clear span...

zoomzoom with a recent post has reminded me that I have been wanting to ask this question for a while; What is your record for the longest lasting sealant, or wax for that matter, and -exactly- how did you apply the product? As for me I am a true Klasse believer though I have NOT used any...

Spending my days off on the dw's Subaru, yesterday it got washed, detared, clayed, washed again and dried. Today I started with the Mez Intensive, Final and AIO-using both the Cyclo and PC. Grabbed the Cyclo which had the AIO by mistake and put some Mez on it and went to town, realized what I...

and upholstery! First of all I do the interior with the hose and wet vac combo, I call it the Mr. T method. Usually I'll very lighten the material with the spray nozzel, immediately spray lemon scented 'simple green' vac, then give it a slightly deeper water spray and vac again. Has always...

I just tried out my new 5 1/4" pads (pc) and they 'seem' to be the perfect match. Now this is all subjective but: the machine seems to have more power under pressure and the throw -seems- to be different. Could the smaller 'mass' of these pads have some real effect??

How about having CMA do the ultimate machine comparison?, to my knowledge this would be a first. My proposal; One rotary (there isn't a whole lot of difference between the brands) and one each of the available d/a's with brand recognition - Makita BO, Flex, PC and Cyclo-be used by someone from...

As Doug posted, the Cyclo does morph when you take off the rubber backing pads and put on the quick release adapter. I believe that he mentioned the ves upgrade was not that critical when one changes to the snap adapter and he is correct. My machine with the adapters and double pads is 100%...

Hearing the Govt throw the word 'trillion' around like I throw one dollar bills around got me to wondering just how big a trillion is. I sort of know how big a billion is, during grad school in the '70's a prof explained a billion this way, 'a billion seconds ago they had not expoded the atomic...

In the recent past I got up the nerve to try Klasse AIO on the windscreen of our BMW R1100 GS, fantastic results. Shortly after that, while cleaning the lower life forms from the faceshield (we always wear a helmet, even in States that don't require it) I got to thinking and decided what the...
