Well, tomorrow I finally will attend to my endlink situation. After poking my head under there, I noticed that the endlink for the right side is completely non-existent So, that means i have bee driving aroudn w/a disconnected swaybar for a while. The handling was pretty good, and didnt notice anything. But, i can't wait to see the improvemnts tomorrow! Wish me luck!

"ignorance is bliss"

Reminds me when I drove a 1960 vw bug around for about a month with a really, really loud knocking sound, hoping it would last until I had time and $$ to investigate the sound. Well needless to say, I was horrified when the crank fell into two pieces when I split the case open. Then two years later, same car, that sound returned after 25k miles on the rebuild. This time I knew what it was and drove the car around for 2 months with a broken crank.

I have one (got it for Christmas) and I love it. I works wonders on paint that is fairly healthy.

But, it doesn't replace a high-speed rotary buffer and a wool pad that you need for some serious compounding or following a paint job. That also requires skill and experience.

For getting rid of swirl marks and bringing out a shine a mile deep, you can't beat it. And it's pretty much mistake-proof for a novice. Saves a lot of time and sweat.

Here's my hood after I polished it up with the PC 7424 and Zaino. Notice the clear bra on the front half? It's normally impossible to photograph the clear bra as it is invisible from a few feet away but I caught the light just right.

Oh man that looks wonderfull. Yeah i would need to get familar with it, but I dont think i will have any need for a high-speed rotary buffer. I am jsut lookin' to do minor details, if you know what I mean.

Like I said: it's easy. It has an extra side handle that screws on and it just rides on its own weight. You just guide it back and forth. You can use one pad to put the wax/sealant on and another one to buff it off.

Since the pad doesn't rotate when there's weight on it (it oscillates), I put a microfiber polishing cloth under the pad for the final touch. You can even use the Z6 or Z8 or some other Final Detailer spray.
