I was wondering (after looking a a diagram) how hard does anyone think it would be to turn a MKII into a MKIII? At least giving the MKII the variable trigger option. There is no parts list for the MKIII yet and I have to believe that the MKIII is not a big evolution like the MKI to MKII...

The Dr. Beasley’s kit has been the victim of some derision at $500. It’s now hit the closeout bin at $425. Combined with a 25 % sale discount it is finally starting to hit my radar. It’s the only coating, Pro or otherwise, that says 9(!) years of protection. It touts it’s flexability which...

I’ve been looking at headlamps for awhile. I’ve got a Scangrip handheld model, but I want something that I can use while polishing or especially when applying a coating without stopping to grab my light. Any suggestions besides Scangrip? I need something light and sweat resistant. I normally...

For those of you that do price matching, how do you do it? I’ve tried it three times and it always gets screwed up. I tried putting a comment in the comment box asking to price match with X company and I give their price for an item. All three times I got “when we checked they were not...

When I try to order on my IPad Pro the Cart will not show any items I have put into the Cart. Above the Cart it shows that I have put items into the Cart, but no items show in the Cart. I sent a message to customer service a week ago about this problem but it has not been resolved and I am...

Imagine trying to explain to the cop that just pulled you over that it’s your fragrance choice that smells like beer. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Stan Lee dies at 95. WW II Vet and Marvel Comics godfather will be missed by those of us who grew up on superheros with human failings. He kept the genre alive when most had given up on it. Farewell.

This is the last of four SiO2 spray toppers reviews. Our subjects this time around are Kamikaze Overcoat V1 and V2, Polish Angel Cosmic Spritz, and Polish Angel Viking Spritz. A shout out and big thanks to our resident coating expert Budgetplan1 for providing the Kamikaze Overcoat V1 and V2...

I received an email today from Dr Colorchip about a 15% off deal on their products. I normally delete these and go on deleting the other stuff that hits my box. I happed to open it up and they have a deal on a regularly $299 polisher package for $99. The polisher looks like a normal Rupes...

I’m continuing to work my way through the new wave of coating SiO2 based toppers. Some say they can be used as stand alone last step products (LSP), that is up for discussion. Here are today’s victims This is the test hood. It has been rinseless washed with McKees N-914, clayed with Primo...

I picked up one of 3Ms Headlight Restoration Kits on my last order from AG. I don’t usually buy their kits but I needed to reach the free shipping mark and I just thought I should try it. I usually just buy some sandpaper discs from eBay. Truthfully I’m not sure why I bought it, senility must...

We have been discussing waxes again so I thought it would be nice to see what waxes Autopians are hoarding. Missing in action in my garage is my FK 1000p Let’s see what you’ve got. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

I tested three SIO2 toppers last week (BF SIO2, TAC Systems Quartzmax, and PA HighGloss). The BF SiO2 was the loser in initial beading, but after mulling it over it might have been user error, so I decided to give it a redo. This time I sprayed it directly onto the paint and then wiped off as...

Due to the generosity of forum member glfnaz who sent me a large sample of the new Blackfire SiO2 product, I decided to do a side by side comparison between one of my favorite maintenance sprays (Quartzmax) and the new contender. I was going to throw CarPro Reload into the mix, but I couldn’t...

https://untilgone.com/products/sun-joe-1650-psi-electric-pressure-washer-with-adjustable-nozzle-1 I found this SunJoe PW a few minutes ago. They make decent power washers and this is a really good price. I am not affiliated with any of these companies, I just thought someone might need a new PW!

I use Pennzoil in my BMW (their latest recommendation) and I’m always on the lookout for a bargain. Right now Pennzoil is on sale at Walmart with free shipping. The kicker is Pennzoil is offering a $10 rebate on the 5 quart size container, so it is close to half off with the rebate. You have...

Does anyone know how long Can Coat will last in the can before it goes bad?

I don’t want to toot my own horn, but I made it to birthday number 60! It was a rough road, and there were times I did not think I would make it, but here I am! Just wanted to share with my Autopia family.
