Also waiting for a sale over on DetailedImage.com to get a bottle of Blackfire Wet Diamond, right now its $30 a bottle + shipping I think Autogeek's company already acquired the Blackfire brand but don't know when they gonna have it for sale.
Ebay has the PC 7424xp for a bit cheaper so I'm getting it from there.

Any input/questions are appreciated. I'm excited to give my car a proper detail but hopefully I can do it for more than once Someone please encourage me to detail my car every 3-4 months

 

Now you've done it. Welcome to the club!

 

lol thanks! The 15%off+free shipping promotion that Autogeek is running is just too attractive plus I have another $50 credit with them that I need to use anyway

 

Good luck.. just did my wife's car yesterday. Wash/clay/compound/polish/ipa/4*UPP

 

Coastal tool has them for $125 shipped c/w 5" backing plate & proper counter weight.

 

also, can find masking tape/painters tape at the dollar store.
its the same product.

And I believe a full detail isnt needed every 3-4 months.

 

You may need a finer polish to follow that compound. You'll also come across very soon that a 3.5" BP + 4" pad may come in very handy in the near future

I have a buttload of extra polishes if youd like haha..always trying different products...for cheap

 

Yeah it would definitely be nice to get a finer polish to jewel your paint after and really bring out that WDP. No clay bar or MF's? Do you have a sheepskin/MF wash mitt? Grit guards? Wheel cleaner and brushes? Car soap?

The Griot's DA is also a very good buy. I find it is much quieter than the PC7424XP at maximum speed. Supposedly it has more power too.

I foresee plenty more orders coming along. The wallet won't be happy haha.

 

will check it out! thanks!
awww.. should've know better.. hopefully I can call Autogeek in a bit and change my order!
I've been detailing my car by hand so already got some stuffs like clay bar, MF, wheel cleaners, and this: (finer polish you're talking about)

 

Welcome to the addictive hobby of detailing! I'm sure you won't regret your decision of buying a PC and great items to go with it.

Palm Beach Motoring Group (PBMG), which owns Autogeek.net has acquired Blackfire but they are selling it exclusively in http://www.autopia-carcare.com/.

^ PM'ed

Also placed the order for PC 7424xp from Coastal tool

Everything should be here by Friday... here we go ppl

 

Anyone who PM'd me, honestly I have to admit that I am just too lazy to do anything.

Not going to lie, I am busy right now and probably wouldn't get to mailing/meeting to hand over the BF.

I am not fond of it, and yet it will sit in my garage for the next five years... I know, I suck.

 

^cake makes it all better.
and hookers.
dead hookers.
