    Artificial Intelligence and Detailing Information "Plagiarism"

    Hey, stay off my DVD shelf! I think you left out, perhaps on a smaller scale than the others you mention, AMEE from Red Planet (I'm sure there are a bazillion others in that vein). Since you brought up VIKI, one of my favorite movie lines: "Do you think we were all created for a purpose? I'd...

    I went with that Noco GB40 on the Black Friday sale, seemed like a prudent thing to have around. I use CTEK chargers...I just realized how ironic that is.

    Artificial Intelligence and Detailing Information "Plagiarism"

    I thought I did click on one of those reference links and it didn't really take me to the "source". I'll have to pay more attention next time.

    Artificial Intelligence and Detailing Information "Plagiarism"

    I notice that google searches now have an AI-generated summary at the top of the page, which is sometimes useless, and sometimes very helpful. You do make a very interesting point, that sometimes we have people come on this forum full of piss and vinegar however have no idea what they are...

    C'mon, People

    At least Autogeek seems to be back in stock on everything that they still do sell. Whether they expand the lines they stock, or come out with new products within their captive brands, remains to be seen. It does seem that it's social media and Amazon that are driving things, not forums. I...

    C'mon, People

    I don't know, I just bought some new leather products I didn't need, that I just found out about. Buying stuff I just found out about that I don't need? It's just like the old days here...except I found out about it on AGO. Since this place is so dead, I'll elaborate--someone started a thread...

    Stoner Odorless Iron Remover

    Stoner was having a good Black Friday sale, so I bought a gallon of the Odorless Iron Remover. The bottle got a little squashed in shipping so I went to look at it a couple of days later and there were some blue solids in the bottom (the spray bottle is black so I didn't know if this was...

    What New Products are you trying in 2025

    That's what I've been doing for years, but this year I fell off the wagon on Black Friday. I have been agonizingly throwing out a few old polishes and things, but I still have way too much OLD stuff, and now new stuff on top of that. Some things never change.

    Seeking Comments about the NEW Rupe's LHR21/15 Mark V (5) Polishers

    It's a DA/long stroke thing--I got my Flex 3401 back in 2007 or something and that's mostly what I use except for things like headlights or spot polishing where I use my old PC with 3-4" pads.

    Seeking Comments about the NEW Rupe's LHR21/15 Mark V (5) Polishers

    I have never gone long-throw, but when the cordless version of this came out a year or two ago I was all amped-up to try it, until TRC did a YouTube demonstration of it and it still stalled on a curved surface, so I just stuck with my Flex 3401.

    Black Friday Sales 2024

    Well, after years of being chaste and trying to use up my countless products acquired during many years of "flavor-of-the-month club" membership, this year I broke down and bought some stuff. What about you fellers? PS My apologies to Lonnie if this is antithetical to his economy argument.

    C'mon, People

    Lonnie, although I appreciate there may be economic factors involved, some of this is a generational shift (as bad penny noted about younger people being less likely to own or care about a vehicle, and more likely to use social media than forums), but also just a societal shift away from this...

    Stoner Car Care

    I decided with 25% off Black Friday I'm going to buy some of the Stoner Odorless Iron Remover and some of the Foaming Wheel Cleaner Gel and mix them 50/50 and see if I can approximate the old M37 wheel cleaner.

    I see that NOCO is also on Black Friday sale at Amazon for $80, how often do you have to charge that, grungy?

    Excellent Mike Phillips Video on Pads

    The first hour is Mike's presentation, the last 25 minutes is Q&A, which had a few interesting things, but you won't miss too much if you only watch the first hour. Great history of buffing pads and overview of past and current products/trends.

    Excellent Mike Phillips Video on Pads

    Mike did a livestream today on the Dr. Beasley's channel; I've only watched about a third of it so far but it's excellent (don't blame me if it goes south in the part I haven't seen yet):

    My friend just asked me the same question....my answer was no (I don't have any recommendations). Let us know what you find out.

    PBMG Customer Service

    What was that other one, XMT? Yes, I think you're right, DP became M37 and then DP was brought back after the split.

    That just doesn't seem to make much difference anymore, like it used to.
