Got sick of not having my own buffer and having to borrow one all the time, so I treated myself to all this. Can't wait to put it all to good use...

Porter Cable 7424 Dual Action Orbital Polisher


Wolfgang Swirl Removing Kit


Mequiars Smooth Surface Clay Kit


Wolfgang Detailer's Tool Bag


Bought a few other misc. things like foam pad cleanser and cleaning brush as well. Hopefully I'll get a full day one of these weekends and go crazy on the car.

 

nicee. shuld post some pics once u clean up ur ride, gonna look awesome.
maybe its jsut me, but it feels damn good to see ur own reflection after washing your own car

 

the bf has that same polisher (it was his first one, he has gotten a couple more since then). he has some recommendations for you, said he will log on later and share some of the stuff he has learned. his logon is reefer_bob. He has worked on quite a few cars (incl mine, his audi, our friends beemers ('02 5series and '04 745li), even our old neighbor's boat. I really think he spends more on detailing supplies than he does on me. sigh

 

Nice. The PC is a great piece and will do well on the Acura paint. I have a 7424, a Flex 3401 DA, and a Makita 7223 rotary.

The flex just takes a lot of work to get the same results.

Be careful with that orange pad and the compound. I personally HATE the Euro foam orange pads (Lake County any number of manufs) Always start light and go heavier.

Not knowing what all you've gotten, you'll probably need a couple more white and or green pads for your polishing steps. Also you can't have too many MF's.

If you have questions, you can ask Kristy, or I and a ton of other great detailers can be found over on DetailingBliss.com. Very nice low key website. I'm not on here very much...

 

meguiars products are all amazing esp the leather cleaner they have...it works wonders...mothers carnauba is also pretty good

 

Nice gift! Keeping black cars clean is a pain but the payoff is sweet.

I've been putting off clay-barring my car for the longest time! let's see some before and after shots

 

I'm off Saturday, be there at 9 to do my car or I'll punch you in the throat.

 

LMAO!!!

It would be awesome if you came up though.

 

I haven't been to the Crystal City in a while. I do, however, have family in Rock Hill.

P.S. Almost moved to Mecklenburg county years ago, until I heard about the state & county income tax.
