Another Addition to The Family


Yes it is true we have become a 3 MINI family.
Laurie's oldest son Bryce is now the proud owner of a 06 Chili Red/ White Cooper.


Here are a few snaps taken when Bryce picked up his new ride:

So that's how it works!
I gotta buy my 3rd Mini before I get a "good" lookin babe for a salesman!

Just kidding. There all a bunch of really nice people (she's just prettyier than my "guy" saleman. Who am I kidding? A "lot" prettyier!) aww

Congrats! Had mine 8 months, and still, I almost go daily into my garage, and find something to shine up, a little more. Going to pick up a Porter Cable 7424 random orbital buffer soon, before my arms start to look like Popeye's. Found some Zymol cleaner wax at Wal-mart and a Mother's clay bar kit. Now that the weathers finally warming up, I can at least be comfortable again. Used the clay bar to clean up the windshield really nice. It looked streaky no matter what fancy cleaners I used.

Enjoy!

If you're going to go the Porter Cable route check out Autopia (if you don't already know about it). All sorts of info and more on detailing, etc.


I've been using Zaino products for the past few years and have been quite pleased. Last year I got a PC 7424 and used it with Zaino Z-PC (paint cleaner) on an orange Sonus SwirlBuster pad (from the Autopia store) and was really pleased with the way things turned out. These products are a little pricey up front but since you need to use very little of each product to get fantastic results the cost-per-applicaiton is pretty low.

Hey Pamlico, thanks. That's definitly a keeper. wink

Here's one I found that I liked:
ShowCarDetailing
http://www.showcardetailing.com/forums/cmps/index.php?page=home

It has a pretty decent dvd on using the pc for sale. Looks worth it to me.

Here's something else very interesting I just came across today. I hope I never need to use it (fingers crossed), but it's a good thing to know.

How to remove car dents with a piece of dry ice. This would definitely be very useful on the smaller dings.

Thanks again!yawn

Glad to help. Somewhere on Autopia (may actually be in their store section) there are some videos that discuss using the PC which I found useful. It may save having to purchase the DVD from the other place.

Neat trick with the dry ice. Now to find a source of dry ice.

THe pictures were hosted on a website that has been moved. I'll see if I can find a new home for them.

Happy Motoring,
Jack
