CharlesW's laptop thread prompted me to query the membership's computer experiences further. :) I am on the verge of replacing my home system. I am more than likely looking to a "desktop" since I don't forsee the need for mobility and therefore don't want to pay the premium for a laptop. But...

I know going in that my question probably doesn't have a definitive answer and all answers are subject to a variety of conditions...but I'm going to ask anyway :) What is the minimal amount of cure time for PWS when topped with EX-P? The scenario is this: I will have a vehicle, a light...

Those little Dixie Chicks got theirs tonight! I'm sure it's been a long and strange journey since I first heard them as a quartet literaly playing the streets of downtown Dallas.

I've seen at least one other of this type of test, but this one was new for me. Are You a Yankee or a Rebel? - alphaDictionary * Southern Accent Test 96% Dixie. Is General Lee your grandfather?! HeHe 96% Dixie, but 100% Texan :bigups

Had an odd occurrence earlier while trying to access the forum. Twice, I received a screen indicating that a download was being "requested" from Detail City. I didn't accept or allow either time. I thought if it were genuine, Dwayne would have given previous notification. Anyone else...

Attempts to use the Log Out feature take me first to the "Are you sure" dialog box. I click yes. I get the 404 Page Not Found error message. Is this some diabolical plot? There are no "smilies" to click, so you'll have to figure out the emotions behind the post.

Well, I committed an error in judgment and used a new (to me) product on a customer’s vehicle without first testing it. I paid for my folly by having to spend extra time cleaning up after myself. :( The product, Poorboy's Polish with Carnauba The problem, dusting. Not just light dusting...

Readying my order and can always use another clay bar. A few questions for veteran users: 1) Reading the product name Elastic Poly Clay, I am assuming that this is more like the Mother's clay product than the Clay Magic product. Right or wrong assumption? 2) I'm not really interested in...

Just giving a shout out to our members from "down under". We spent Saturday evening being entertained by 10 of your countrymen, the 10 Tenors. Quite a talented bunch. I understand they have been around for years, but this was our first experience. They represented you very well. Are they...

As posted in another thread... Steve, is this a "joke" that just blew right over my head, or have I been doing this "wrong" all of these years? I continually shake my spray bottle as I move from panel to panel. While I've never noticed any problems, how would I know, I've always done it this...

Has anyone tried this product? It seems to be somewhat of a minor sensation over at DC where Adam is a sponsor. I believe this is marketed as a "waterless wash" ala PB's Spray & Wipe. But in addition to the cleaning characteristics of S&W, it adds gloss. What have you experienced? I am...

I recently tried it for cleaning tires. Tires are relatively new (<10k miles). I diluted per the instructions (well almost :o ) 30:2. Instructions were 30:1. I was underwhelmed to say the least. I ended up reverting to a Dollar Store APC (Awesome - have you seen/tried it?) Has anyone tried...

I have just recently added PwC to my arsenal specifically to be used on lighter colored vehicles with solid or metallic paints. I am going to make the Wife's VW NB Silver Reflex (metallic) my guinea pig. The finish is already in good shape having clayed, AIO(x2), and Liquid Souveran when new...

Didn't hear from many New Beetle owners, so I'll take this route. How many of you have 1.8T engine? What issues (good and bad) have you had with this engine? How many miles do you have on your vehicle? I drove a new '03 NB GLX 1.8T and a new '03 Turbo S today. Short demo drive only, but...

My wife wants a new one, but I don't want to take the depreciation hit if I have to dump it early. Considering an '01-'03 GLS w/5 spd stick. I believe the Germans can build a good vehicle, but don't think they have ever caught on to the electrical side. Case in point electric window...

While attempting to manage my Subscribed Threads list, I received the following error message when attempting to select any thread period beyond the default "Todays Thread" option. Fatal error: Call to undefined function: sanitize_pageresults() in /home/detailci/public_html/forums/member2.php...

Specifically those with V-8 Triton engines. Did you choose the 4.6 or 5.4 option? Why? Have you been satisfied with your choice? How long has your truck been in service (mileage)? Any unsuspected service issue(s) encountered?
