I have also switched to a clay alternative towel. Going from hearing the contaminants making noise against the towel to no more noise and being completely smooth tells me it is working. I still have some clay bars for very tight spots or what not, but definitely not for the majority of a car.

Hello and welcome! Your name sounds really familiar...I used to be an Air Force recruiter in Flint from 2008-2012.

Those wheels/tires look way too small for those wheel wells.

Sheesh! Sad to see...that is an expensive rusted out vacuum. Out of curiosity, is there any harm in using the blower feature of a shop vac to do the same thing a metro blaster does? Currently I use an electric yard work blower, but the shop vac probably would be more precise and not some cumbersome.

Removing bumper sticker

Look into the 3M Stripe Off Wheel if the above doesn't work. -
Harbor Freight sells pads. Are they the best in the world? No, but they will work in a bind.

Thank you to all who have served and those still serving! You all rock! Here are a couple pictures of me...one from 2005 and one taken earlier this year. Man I'm starting to look old! haha

You rock Eric! Thank you again.

I'll take them!

I made an actual pad washer similar to the grit guard one sold for quite a bit of money. There is a how to I found on a forum and it works very well.

Buttery wax help with bumper bugs?
MaStA replied to Erictski's question in Exterior Protection & Enhancement
I believe the liquid paint sealant and renewal with h20gg will be enough, but if you want to take the extra step and add a coat of wax that will be fine also. The biggest thing with bug guts is taking care of them in a timely manner. The longer they sit and harden, the more difficult they will be to remove. -
Dan and Robert, I received the stickers today. Thank you very much!

I agree. Your plan sounds like a good one!

This morning I passed the Air Force SNCO Course 14 test. Yay!

Very nice. I picked up some Keen brand hiking shoes for the easier stuff around here. They seem to be pretty good for the price I paid also through the Amazon sale.

Thank you!

Nice. What brand are those?
-
Very interesting stuff you have been posting. Thank you for sharing!

I see. I can't even seal my paint before the winter because my car was recently repainted due to hail damage. What should have been mostly paintless dent repair turned into a repaint because of how much the first body shop I took it to jacked up the paint in the process. I ended up having to take it to a second shop and they repainted all of the metal panels and told me I had to wait 90 days to wax/seal.

Looking for ways to hang / store my polishers...
MaStA replied to teamcrossworks's question in General Detailing Discussion and Questions
Correct. I have a PC7424 from years back still running strong. I probably bought it in like 2008 when I purchased my Subaru. I recently ordered a 3" backplate for it and some 3" pads because eventually it will take care of hard to reach areas/pillars and I will have a new polisher that can run 6-7" pads to expedite large panels.
