3PedalMINI

yup, i have the good year and its simply awesome

i looked at that and found that it had some extreme negative reviews, one of the biggest complaint is that it leaks and when there isnt any pressure against the hose like when you have a trigger on a nozzle pressed it tries to shrink back and always has a pull against it. Cancel the order!

You guys do a wipe down? I sheet rinse it then dry it, as long as your careful with your wash technique you shouldn't need a wipe down, after all the whole point of the MB is to minimize the amount of contact with the paint! You need a 20 amp breaker and a 12ga cord GFCI is highly recommended :thumbs up:

Wow really? i had no idea!

Arnt All TBss? AWD? congrats on the ride 25k miles thats insane!

Lol maybe im a minority here, but I really dislike Quick Sealant. I was so excited about it when it released but after a few uses im less then impressed, especially with the application. After doing my brothers jeep i have re-kindled my love for Machine Super Sealant that being said, Quick sealant works out nice on my Jetski but after I use up my can i wont purchase it again

i actually like using distilled water, especially with the flex. It seems to "lubricate" a bit better and doesnt grab as much. This works well for me!

can I interest you in a pristine 2011 Mini Clubman S http://www.adamsforums.com/forums/garage-sale-forum/19260.htm Do what will make you happy, I honestly know exactly where your coming from. Ive been there/am there

Here you go! http://www.detailersdomain.com/Brinkmann-Tuffmax-Dual-LED-Spotlight_p_400.html im also trying to find the light that has two settings where inbetween the lenses is a little sun that helps to make sure your paint is "clear" meaning no polishing oils are left behind, cant think of the name though

Whoa! im not usually a fan of that look but OMG thats incredible man congrats

Watch This, its a pretty powerful segment: President's broken promises it is all on the president, he promised and he could have allowed the program to continue. How hard would it be to the guy that shook the presidents hand, gave him a tour of nasa then LOOSE his job a few years later because of direct actions of the guy you gave a tour to .

sry that post was towards Angry Polska the card your selling is the identical card that i have and i cant play BF3 Close Quarters because my FPS is to low

Hows your rig play BF3?

i dont think anyone is being rude. Pretty much everything technology we have today is because of NASA or *loosly* based on NASA technology...the reason we have theses things is because when NASA was founded it was written in the books that anything NASA develops MUST make their research,Ideas & products available to the private sector. Nasa is an incredible organization and off all the things that this radical left president has cut to put more money towards social programs and bailouts that didnt work leaves US, THE UNITED STATES forced to PAY THE RUSSIANS to take an american up to the space station. The reason why were so excited about this program, and putting this rover on mars is because of the technology that WE THE PUBLIC will get to enjoy 10-20 years from now. Now that being said its also bitter sweet because unless something radical changes in washington this is most definitely the last of this type of mission for ever. Once we loose the great minds at nasa (48% of them are gone because of out presidents LIES and shutting down the shuttle program) we more then likely wont have great minds that can share the experiences for the next generation, making us fall 2nd, third even last to the rest of the countries. This is where it becomes dangerous because when the russians/Chinese surpass us in space tech then we loose national security IE communications/data/weapons and the list goes on and on and we HAVE TO PAY THEM FOR THEIR TECHNOLOGY. Im so sick and tired of watching the news and seeing out president pull back door deals, executive orders and cutting VITAL programs like our military and NASA to help "cut spending" to line politicians pockets and to have more money for handouts and govenment mooching boobs. If even 1/4 of our nation understood what nasa does then this mindset of "its just stupid space exploration" could go away and people could actually appreciate what it is and what they do. So do we blame the schools for this? loosly on the progressive movement or just the fact that nobody has a real idea or care to understand? rant OFF, sorry Brandi this really isnt directed at you and I mean that.

didnt realize how close you are to me, i assume your at "springfield" right off of 476? i just completed a few jobs there, and am always threw there going to my office in Conshohocken..

congrats man! way to get out of the land filled with fruits and nuts colorado is gorgeous and i wouldn't mind living there one day, im also sure the cost of living is about half of what it is in SoCal! glad to hear your wife will be able to spend her days with your son, thats HUGE! (i imagine the cost of living has something todo with it) Good luck with the house hunt!

i do two foams, one soaking for 10-15 minutes, then wash off then foam again and continue with normal 2 bucket wash! the first one soaks into the grime and loosens it, most of it comes off with a pressure washer. Anything to prevent spreading unnecessary loose dirt, if its really really dirty ill do 2 "rinse" foams followed by the 3rd wash foam

news to me that you cant run 4" pads on 5-6, i do that frequently without any issues

2PedalWorkvan :lol: Thats awesome! thanks guys, actually at this point I just want to get rid of it, its a burden for lack of a better word. Ill miss her thats for sure but she is the last thing im thinking about when i get home. Ive been so busy that ive been doing consultations in the morning and installs in the afternoon, where I would drive my mini to consultations i cant haul a bunch of tools in her so its the workvan for now! Shes fun, thats for sure! later on in life ill get another toy but for now my sights are set on the business

Thanks Guys!! I agree! jeeps can get away with these types of colors, there are few cars on the road that can pull it off right. My brother is in love with it (so am I) the amount of stares he gets is insane, some awesome and some like "WTF is that color" i cant wait until he gets rims/tires/bumpers/lift he does plan on taking it off road, it wont be a road queen so not sure how long the pristine paint will last but, its a Jeep!

you needed to wait atleast 12 hours before you waxed, most just wait 24 hours :jester:

This is my brothers new Wrangler, we've had it for a month and a half now and I finally had some time to new car prep it. process as usual 2 bucket wash, clay etc. It wasnt too bad, just needed a hit of FMP, some areas that were etched needed S&H remover on focus pads but FMP did well. Im used to german clear coats, this is my first american car detail and i was shocked at how "soft" the clear coat was and how quick i achieved 99% perfection It lives outside so i used MSS and hit her with a coat of americana. Its been a while since i used MSS so it was a nice change from quick sealant. To be honest i like MSS much better then quick sealant. This is one of the more difficult details because of all the small tight areas the wrangler has and all the taping that has to be done, focus pads on the PC were used 50% of the time. all trim inside and out was hit with SVRT, my brother is buying a gallon of it soon because of how much the trim soaked it in. This color is Grays flamboyant color, it doesnt show much and is very hard to capture defects, let alone capturing the "depth" of the paint. Sorry for the Iphone pictures, my DSLR is charging and will get some better ones later, the color is a pretty gnarly color and the iphone just doesnt capture it right, it looks more light then it really is. Dont look at the rims, they are plastidipped for now. New rims/tires/lift/bumper are coming within the next month. Thanks for looking better pics up shortly

That is AWESOME!

Well, My business is growing and rapidly. Its getting to the point I barely drive my Mini as i am ALWAYS in my workvan, and I can use this money that goes into the mini for hireing employees and re-investing even more into my company. So its time to sell my toys to continue to build my company. 2011 *Garaged* Mini Cooper Clubman S 6Speed 12,985 on the clock, well under the average. 3 year 36k lease. Lease is up in December 2013 so just a bit shy of 1 1/2 years left. Monthly payment is $420.38 per month assuming 700+ credit score and 6% sales tax/month (your payment may go down or up considering your states sales tax rate). $19,750 (negotiable) residual at lease end if you choose to buy out the lease. If anyone on Adams is interested in this I will pay the the BMW financial lease transfer document fee of $500 and willing to drive up to 300 miles to deliver her to her new home! Shes Pristine, Has Alta CAI, "aftermarket" (mini) rims, painted brake calibers and the trim is blacked out and Mini Maintenance done at all intervals. I have the original Air Intake for lease return. Please PM with any questions, ill get some interior shots but these are what i have for now. Its a great fun car and i get 42 MPG on the highway, regularly average 36mpg city/highway Thanks!! Top Two are the most updated pics with the blacked out trim.

I was on the water yesterday on my ski and was admiring that Sea Hunt a family was putting in at the ramp. a buddy of mine's father just purchased a Robalo R240 and im in love Honestly adams doesnt really hold up on the water, just get marine grade wax. That being said i have had tremendous luck using Quick Sealant on my ski followed by 3M Marine Wax and the results are spectacular. Good Luck with her
