It's weird, the area gets quiet at time then gets rustled up and is busy.
Oh I was here for the beginning when he first became a sponsor. He was alright when I left, what happened?

Really? This happened just in the past 4-6 months or so...

He had really odd perspectives on fundamentals of detailing. Told people not to use detail spray or waterless wash. That they MUST use this "pre-soak" they sold that loosens the clear coat. He never had any research to back it up, just the "trust me" clause. Got into a disagreement with Dylan about the chemical make up of waterless wash and detail spray. He went on to blame Adam's/Dylan for forum stuff going on with his account.

It's spring finally, so time to detail my car! Little nervous to try the buffer on my Camaro. Do not think it was ever compounded or polished but figure I will start with M205 and see where that leads me. Definitely no where near as swirly as my Honda was which is good. I just need to become more careful after getting rid of all of the swirls because I do not want to do it again.

Was able to polish my exhaust tips finally. Clean up beautifully. Not too bad otherwise, this was after an initial wash with CG citrus wash and gloss then had to clay bar on the sides of the car behind the wheels to get tar off before putting some wax on top. Then of course it snowed/rained three days later so this past weekend I washed again with CG Mr. Pink then topped with Hybrid V7. The first picture is the tips after polishing, then the whole car was after the weekend wash.

Somewhat... He randomly pops in maybe once every two months or so? Stirs up a pot and then leaves
