    How did I not know this existed!?!

    An air freshener that smells like CarPro Eraser? I had to have it!

    Gyeon Q² WAX

    Well, so much for “I ain’t buying any more stuff just outta curiosity” but the Siren Song of a fluorine product was just too tempting; I didn’t end up shipwrecked though so that’s a plus. I kinda dig products with fluorine as the water behavior is quite entertaining; always enjoyed Gyeon...

    Folks down in Central Ohio accumulating quite the collection.

    And wasting no time doing it: https://youtu.be/NI25U9bq9DA Snow, rain, Taco Bell trips at 2am...they certainly do use the cars. [emoji33]

    2016 Cayman - Partial respray, PPF and whatever else comes to mind.

    Looks like Winter will be a fine time to correct some issues w/ the paint and add some protection. When I bought this car as a CPO in August 2019 ( https://budgetplan1.wordpress.com/something-wicked-this-way-comes/ ) it was bit of a a departure for me in that I’ve always been a V8 kinda...

    Think I`m done messing around with coatings, final thoughts...

    Kinda Cured Coatings Leftover Gloss Shop Titan and NV Nova Evo. Somewhat different outcomes after a week. The Titan (left) is kinda a soft, styrofoam-ish consistency, crumbled when I tried to pop it outta the little plastic cup it was in. The Evo (right) popped out nicely and has the feel of...

    That`ll about do it for 2020, some new products, some old and 2 years with PPF

    Unfortunately it`s that time of year here in NE Ohio...clean up the fun stuff and put it away until next Spring. Washed her C7 and the Cayman one last time, then into the garage, hook up the battery tenders and take a break from it all for a few months. Looking back on keeping her car...

    Eh, I can live with sub-13 second car...

    Not exactly its forte` but just had to know...so took Cayman to dragstrip. Looked a little diminutive and outta place amongst Camaros, Mustangs and Mopars [emoji33] Don`t mind the short nap at the line, was, uh...`working some things out`. [emoji1] Video: https://youtu.be/D8i4rpy3SqI And...

    Cars & Coffee - Columbus 08/15/2020

    Cars & Coffee - Columbus 08/15/2020 Lotsa stuff cancelled this year but always fun to head down when possible. Had a decent amount new Corvette C8`s rolling in and out: Self-serving, gratuitous picture of our Cayman: Not sure what the deal was with this Lambo...

    "It was the best of signs, it was the worst of signs..."

    Hoping Mr. Dickens won`t be too upset at the misappropriation of his quote...poetic license?

    Nice tour through Southern Ohio last weekend...

    Hocking Hills, Ohio`s Triple Nickel, Route 555. While the Cayman is plenty of `car` it definitely needs more `driver` :lol: Photographer w/ a camera drone was along, kinda a neat vid: https://youtu.be/MB4qBOeR2oo

    Review: Polish Angel High Gloss Paste Wax

    Polish Angel High Gloss Paste Wax...this stuff is just nutty. Soooooo reflective. Usually cell phone pics look better than reality but in this case pics can`t capture it. Every hard corner of a panel was shooting blinding, high def starbursts in the sun. It`s on top of Kamikaze Miyabi + Zipang...

    C8 Corvette Reveal

    Little slow at work today (imagine that...slow at a swimming pool service company in NE Ohio in Winter) so left early and headed down to the C8 Roadshow at dealer we bought our Corvette from last Spring. To me, the new Vette looked a little tubby in the pics I`ve seen but I guess the camera...

    A little fun with SPS Graphene Detailer...

    This van was originally coated w/ Gtechniq CSL in January of 2017; after coating it was topped with Gtechniq C2V3. The self cleaning aspects of that combo were pretty poor, every time it rained it left (easily removed with wash) water spotting. It started keeping itself cleaner of its own accord...

    Life with PPF so far.

    Disclaimer: I’m not a pro by any means, just a curious guy w/ regards to coatings and detailing ‘stuff’. The thoughts below are what I *think* but have no firm foundation behind them aside from my personal experiences. That is to say, don’t take my word for anything but rather read, research and...

    Some see safety cones as a warning...

    ...and some see them as a challenge. Excellent maneuvering skills, Mr. Deliveryman.

    Think I`m done messing around with coatings, final thoughts...

    I heard a brief mention of the 3D kit, figure it will be something akin to Blackfire or McKees coating but whatever it it, if`n it`s from 3D/HD it`ll probably be extremely easy to use and priced nicely. Looks to be about $65 for 50ml but I see no mention of longevity `guesses`. Appears to be...
