Are you talking about Irene at Top of the Line? Agree with you on the pads. I had also found that there was some collaboration between Flex and Porter Cable. One thing I found seemed to indicate that Porter Cable had bought Flex, but either way their relationship ended when Porter Cable...

I prefer coatings on wheels. I'm not sure if Mike will have a different suggestion, but you might try this (if they are actual chrome):

Not trying to put you to work Mike, full disclosure I did not try a Google deep dive on the topic.

I was thinking today, how Flex went along as a large power tool manufacturer in Germany, but AFAIK, never sold anything here in the US until Powerhouse Distributing brought the Flex 3401 in, when Bob Eichelberg was there. Or do I have the story all wrong? Were they already selling other Flex...

Wait...what? Plasma Coat? You keep bringing up these products I've never heard of, obviously I need to spend more time studying the Dr. Beasley's website.

Don't forget the guy behind the buffer.

Normal stuff we all do...,maybe just another day for an elite detailer, but I've never detailed anything that was worth more than when it rolled off the showroom floor, I've never detailed a car older than I am, etc....so normal stuff YOU all do, :p

Congrats, Mike! And thanks for posting that link to the other cars at the show, great stuff.

That was my second guess, LOL You give me too much credit--IIRC you said you didn't get to walk around SEMA this year, your old acquaintance Anthony Orosco was demo'ing a line of powder polishes that you mix up--so I thought maybe that was the new thing.

Wait a minute--those Core Cut products are powders that you mix up as needed??

Ha ha ha, that's too many Can Ams! I think when you first posted one I told you I had forgotten all about that car, I'm not sure whether the reason I knew about it at all was because it was featured in the car magazines or whether I actually saw one in a Pontiac showroom during the brief time...

That's crazy, I thought it was the same car. Didn't you have a similar white Pontiac lined up for a different class, but not a Can Am? Or did you have pictures of both of these? I'm so confused. You had a car that came out of a museum, I thought. Anyway, pretty crazy for you to work on 2...

Oh c'mon Mike, you look like all business in that picture, kind of fitting for someone sanding a car that there were only 1100 made. :)

Oh, I DID watch that video, or the machine sanding one you did with it.

Looks like new!

Did you have to do the inner set of lights too?

Well, that's just been my experience, don't take that as 100% true/correct.

The headlights I've had to sand the factory coating off of developed a horizontal line of bubbled opaque coating, I guess at the interface of where the coating had worn off and where it was still there, so I had to sand everything off. But after that, they never got hazy again like yours, only...

Did you have to sand the coating off? Pad/polish on the Bigfoot? Looks perfect, BTW.

It was almost 60 here, but got very windy by the time it got that warm. In the morning when it was cooler but less windy, I rinseless washed one wheel, that I had to get a new tire on months ago and have been too lazy to clean the rubber lube residue off of. I guess it was kind of hardened on...
