So Mike, what's the best way of protecting something like that AeroVault trailer, would something like a spray and rinse sealant work, thinking that way as something hand applied would be time consuming, not to mention physically demanding, as I'm sure you know. Also, is it a similar surface...

I washed my FJ Cruiser today, it was mainly dusty, so I foamed and pressure washed it. At the last wash I wanted to put something extra on top, I chose Turtle Wax Graphene Infused Wax, I bought it on clearance for $10, thinking I'd probably use it on wheels, or my brother's car. It was finicky...

I washed my Mum's Nissan Qashqai today, I think you call it a Rogue Sport over there, and Jeremy Clarkson calls them the Nissan Kumquat. It was coated with NV Lustre and Jet about 6 months ago, so it's an easy vehicle to wash. I foamed it, tested out a new foam, a cheap auto store brand foam, it...

Yeah I saw that, I just went in and there's a spam explosion, multiple old threads, like 5 pages, with new posts about gaming. Damn frustrating.

Big Dave came from my soccer team when I was 9, there were 3 Daves, you can guess which one I was. But 1970 must have been a very popular year for the name David, by the time I got to High School there were 10 of us in the same year.

Guilty as charged, I didn't want to lose my user name, imagine how confused you guys would be if Big Dave ended up being some guy in Austria, who drives a Land Rover. It did actually happen on another website, I was Big Dave in their comments section, then someone else came in and used it as...

I have pads from at least 3 different brands, the most recent is Shinemate, which are my favourite currently, especially the diamond face. Without going to the tub, I know I have some blue spider, they have a grid cut in them, but I can't remember what brand they are. I also have the originals...

I got this message from Deyon, DFB on the AG forum, who emailed AG customer service. "We should have it back up shortly, we ran into some software issues and need to do a full update and migrate the forum into a new software due to unsupported software that is no longer available. " Juan Sierra

I don't know if this is good or bad, but when I just checked in on the AG forum, it no longer comes up with "database error", it asked me to login, which worked, but then came up with "network error". The first detailing forum I went on was Detail Paradise, which I found through the Australian...

I attempted a clear coat repair on the hood of my 2011 FJ Cruiser about a year ago, with similar results. After some heavy rain I noticed a small bubble appearing, after it dried I barely touched it and it cracked and started to lift the surrounding clear. And it didn't even happen where I have...

I wonder if it's a hardware issue or, worst case scenario, a ransomware attack. They don't seem to have been practising good cyber hygiene, lots of spam posts, from accounts that were old, but hadn't been active for a while. I don't know what it's like in the US, but here in Australia companies...

That's one beautiful Camaro. I've had bird drop etchings on a couple of my cars over the years, but I never managed to make them disappear completely, you make it look so easy, knowledge, skill , and correct tools for the job. My etchings were all on early GMH cars, back then they didn't even...

A few years ago when I was job hunting, I saw a job advertised at a caravan dealer, both new and used. Amongst the listed job duties was cleaning and and detailing trade ins, then it hit me, caravans have toilets and showers, so I passed on that job. I'm not a small man, I'm not tall, but I am...

I polished the single stage white paint on the roof of my FJ Cruiser. The main silver paint is clear coated though. I used Carpro Essence, later that night I gave it a layer of NV Lustre followed by Jet a couple of hours later.

I cleaned up the engine bay on my Mum's Nissan Qashqai, that's what they call Rogue over here. I sprayed liberally with Bowden's Orange Agent, went at it with some brushes, rinsed, then blew it out with a Bigboi. Then sprayed Meguiar's Hyper Dressing on all the plastics. Noticed that the rinse...

That's brought back a memory, I used the Einzett version of Klima Cleaner Air Conditioner Cleaner at the same time, fed the hose down the vents and sprayed away. The stink was at its worst when the car was parked in the sun. Using both got rid of it enough that I could mask what was left with...

I used an Air-conditioning Cleaning Bomb in one of my previous cars, it had smokers stink rear it's ugly head a few weeks after I'd bought it second hand. The interior smelt very clinical for a week or so after using it. The cigarette stink never really came back, sometimes I thought I could...
