    Dad`s 1st ride in the Camaro

    Took my dad for a ride yesterday. He wanted to go to Harbor Freight (his favorite store) and it`s a mix of highway & city streets to get there. I started off nice & easy and he said that the Camaro was pretty quiet and smooth for a "sports car." He`s from the ERA where sports/muscle cars had big...

    Meguiar`s PP365 from 6-29-2016

    I originally put PP365 on my Camaro on June 29, 2016. Since then it has been washed several times, a few conventional 2-bucket, but mainly either a hose down to get the big/loose stuff off followed by a rinseless w/D115 or a straight D115 rinseless wash. There are a few washing scratches on the...

    Need tips & tricks for Meguiar`s Paint Protect 365

    I just bought the Paint Protect 365 at Walmart and I need some tips & tricks from anyone experienced in its use. I did a quick WW using D115 on my hood, roof and trunk lid so I could give the PP365 a quick test run before going to bed. I used a mf covered sponge applicator and applied several...

    1st Use ... D-115 impressions

    I just got my gallon of D115 in the mail Monday and due to weather/work I had to wait until today to test it. Couldn`t ask for a better day to detail - mid 70s, very light breeze and full sun (I lost my shade about 1/2 way through though I had someone parked behind me and couldn`t move my car to...

    Meguiar`s UWWA vs Rain - help!

    I just rained last night and I was planning on using UWWA this morning to clean the car. Since the car is all wet, should I just give it a regular wash, or blast off the loose stuff with the hose and use the UWWA as a WW//Drying aid?

    Ultimate Wash & Wax Anywhere ... 1st Use

    I have a black Camaro that sits half under a maple tree and about 30 feet from my neighbor`s flowwer garden, so between the two, I get A LOT of pollen all over the car. After being informed that using UQW wasn`t a good idea for heavy pollen removal, I bought a bottle of UWWA at Wally World. I...

    To black out or not to black out

    It has been suggested that I use semi gloss black to paint my trim rings to give the car an all black `stealth` look and I was wondering what the general opinion was. Should I do it or no? Semi gloss or full gloss paint? Leave them silver?

    Is there a good OTC rinseless wash?

    Lately it seems like I have been hit by the pollen issue like so many others. I had just washed the car on Monday and by Tuesday morning, it had a distinct yellow tint to the paint. I`d decided to use a liberal amount of Ultimate Quik Wax, thinking that it would have enough lubricity to deal...

    Ult Quik Wax vs the Pollen Tree

    I washed the car yesterday. By evening I had a fair coat of pollen on the entire car. This morning, my black car had a yellow tinge to it. Now I have Megs QD (the regular stuff), Megs Gold Class QD, and Megs Ult Quik Wax that I could use to remove the pollen. Since I just washed the car...

    How`s this for gloss & reflections?

    I forgot to download this pic of my trunk lid when I detailed my car the other day. I noticed the gloss & reflection as I was walking to the back of the car to grab a fresh mf out of the trunk, it`s the first time I`ve noticed my paint from THAT angle. :D

    Klasse AIO + Meguiar`s Ultimate LW

    I`ve been having some problems with my Collinite Insulator wax since it was stored in the garage over the winter and I wanted to put some good protection on the car, but wanted to remove all the old wax first. There were no real swirls to speak of so I decided to use a chemical cleaner wax...

    Father & Son with Father & Son

    Father & Son with PICTURES My dad is getting up there in years and has a bad case of Parkinson`s and I don`t have many pictures of just him and me together. Then one day it hit me: He has a black `79 `vette that he LOVES tinkering with (since he can`t really drive anymore, he tinkers). I have a...

    Thoughts on Forum 'advertisement'

    I don't know if this is the right spot for this, but I wanted some opinions. This is what I posted on a Camaro-Enthusiasts Forum. So far I have 86 views but no responses. I was wondering if there was something I should have done differently. Since it's almost that time of year, I figured I...
