dipolley Posted March 24, 2012 Share Posted March 24, 2012 I disagree with all of you. They need to keep printing articles like this one. This way I can sweep in and clean up all the cars that were ruined by people following C&d's advice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dreamworkz Posted March 25, 2012 Share Posted March 25, 2012 I just don't know what to say about this. Sad thing is, people will take this step by step procedure and ruin their paint. It is quite funny though that someone read this and said "this will make a great article." Dream Workz Auto Detailing using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doug123 Posted March 25, 2012 Share Posted March 25, 2012 Oh yeah. "Follow these steps, and your ride will have a like-new shine in a matter of hours." Yeah, like fresh off the used car lot swirl factory. Rinse your pads while in use? Uh, no. Use lots of wax to cover up all the damage that you now have inflicted on your paint. IF it will cover it up. Eeesh. Might as well say "Go to the DIY car wash and rub your paint with the brush, it gets all the dirt off". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billawd Posted March 25, 2012 Share Posted March 25, 2012 I had a guy come in to my auto parts store today saying how great this NASCAR speed wax stuff is that some dude sold in in front of a 7-11. He said you can use it when it's dirty to clean the car it takes the scratch out and makes a mirror finish. So I showed him my truck. He was speechless NASCAR speed wax has nothing on Adams Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JBlack151 Posted March 25, 2012 Share Posted March 25, 2012 I like the Technique Tip: Wheeling is a messy process so cover such items as pets! Are you serious, this gave me a great laugh!

Golf for Life Posted March 25, 2012 Share Posted March 25, 2012 I hope that the C&D article was meant as a joke. A sick joke, there should be a disclaimer not to try this method at home or anywhere else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LDM Posted March 25, 2012 Share Posted March 25, 2012 I kinda hope that was a satire article, but sadly it probably isn't. Has anyone ever called it "wheeling" anyway? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Ryan Posted March 25, 2012 Share Posted March 25, 2012 Wow these guys are crazy recommending M105 and a rotary to novices! These guys just unleashed a bucket full of hackery. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mc2hill Posted March 25, 2012 Share Posted March 25, 2012 Has anyone ever called it "wheeling" anyway? It's a body shop term for rotary polishing. If you hear someone say it, just run! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
