Junkman2008 Posted July 10, 2010 Share Posted July 10, 2010 Hey boys and girls, the Junkman coming at you from Carlisle, PA with a report from the Chrysler Nationals! The weather to date has been crazy hot and humid and that can work the drive out of anyone if you spend any significant time directly in the sun. But that's were the Junkman finds his swirls so there is no rest for the weary! So roasting in the sun is where I will bring this update from. We got the tent up and running and had no problem finding vehicles that needed some Adam's style loving. Forum member "Bubba" dropped by with his Charger for a hook up in the shine department. Notice how nice his ride looks with the wide shot. Speaking of wide, my man Bubba leaves a nice size footprint. I think he could challenge me for a eating crown! His paint had its share of swirls, but the main thing is that it was cloudy and lifeless when you looked at it up close. This is a perfect job for Adam's Swirl & Haze Remover. After instructing him and all who watched on how simple the Adam's process is, I was able to take his paint from pitiful to poppin' in no time. He has been having his car detailed by a detailing "professional", but I think he will now be doing a change up as far as that is concerned. One thing to notice about the next couple of pictures is what appears to be dust on the paint. This is actually the pearl in his paint that is now very pronounced after removing all of the cloudiness that was covering the paint. Since the car only has 20,000 miles on it, it was not a whole lot of work so that should give anyone who may be contemplating tackling their own car an idea of just how easy this process is. The next car that I attacked (which I forgot to get a long shot of) was by far, the worst of the swirled up cars that I have ever seen. This thing had every kind of swirl damage known to man! It was scratched, hazed over, swirled and buffed with a rotary buffer by someone who shouldn't be allowed to touch a tricycle. This thing was so bad, I couldn't capture all the damage I saw in this paint job. The kicker is, it was recently painted! But as you know, these are the cars I die for! Swirls, be gone! We did dinner again at our favorite dining spot, and I actually changed up from my usual steak and potatoes. This time, I had a big bowl of the Seafood Bisque and the Cowboy Pork Chop. Yummy! Oh well, it is time to tackle another day. Gotta go for now! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Junkman2008 Posted July 11, 2010 Author Share Posted July 11, 2010 A.J. how long will you be there on Sunday? At least until 2:00 PM. Who let that camaro in ? LOL.... I caught a little hell from that. It was my rental! A.J. ..You told me the truth opening shot for the new thread..WOW!! Thanks for allowing me the pleasure of providing you with the canvas to work some serious art. To stand back and watch as you hold Court, was awe inspiring !! I have learned quite a bit more,..no...a lot more !! But, from now on i will take care and take pride in doing it myself !! Thanks again my friend- Thanks for allowing me to use it! It was a great demo car. I'll see you this morning too! Here's some more action from Saturday. The folks were eager to learn... The damaged cars were in abundance too! Here's one, I'll post more later. It seems that a few of the Crossfire guys and gals liked damaging their wings on the back of the car. Thi lady took it one step further by using some rubbing compound in an attempt to remove a scratch. I fixed her boo boo... By the way, if you stayed home, you missed the show!

swexlin Posted July 11, 2010 Share Posted July 11, 2010 I want to thank Steve and AJ for allowing my Viper to be used as one of the demo cars yesterday in Carlisle. It has 24,000 miles, is definitely a "driver" (as it should be). I am the third owner, and it has a lot of cosmetic issues, the least of which are some serious scratches that AJ worked WONDERS on. Also, I had driven 100 miles out the PA turnpike yesterday morning in torrential rain, so it was a bit trashed from that as well. That was my buddy Bubba's SRT8 Charger that he worked on Friday, and I know both Bubba and I learned a lot. I see now what I've been doing wrong. Thanks again, AJ. If you're ever around West Chester, PA, let me know, and I'll buy you a good steak dinner! Scott Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wish that I could have spent even more time n it but it was such a customer magnet that I was running around like a chicken with my head cut off! At least we got some things done. It was a very nice ride to work on. I took a bunch of pictures of the scratches but forgot to get some pictures of them once I fixed them. That's how crazy it was! I did manage to ge this sweet shot. Nice pics AJ. And can someone please give bikini girl #1 a cheeseburger or something, she looks like she hasn't eaten in a month.
