Please give me some lessons! Also what's the best electric polisher? This apply by hand nonsense isn't going to cut it. No Mr Miagi in these parts. Thanks!

Patience young jedi...



There are few TMS posters who detail, like Marc Harris, from Zto5.0 and yours truly.

Hetre are some websites to help you harness the detailer's force.

www.detailedimage.com
www.autopia.org
www.autogeek.com
www.meguiars.com

PS: for a polisher.. go with a porter cable 7424xp and order the proper pads...!

Thanks. I saw a few of zto5.0's posts the other day about his car show. He and his buddy were the only "swirl free" cars. I don't show my car but I would like better cleaning / car care knowledge. I wash it about every 7-10 days or so and spray off the dust before going anywhere. I use bfwd about every 6 mo. That's it. The car looks very clean but I enjoy driving it too much to be obsessive about every speck of dirt. I would like the knowledge though and totally Polish and wax it to see if the difference is worth it. I do have a stubborn issue with water spots. They are Satan on earth.
