  1. Cleaning Carbon Fiber Wheels

    NMP, thanks for posting that clip and like Ray, I need to clean mine as well. I'm not a "tracker type" so mine only have a couple thousand street miles on them. Took them off one time to clean the plasma coating and discovered what an exercise in futility that can be. Even tried a floor...
  2. How to clean interior after track day?

    Now THAT is a serious hyperlink, Jaymar! <smile>
  3. What's In DFB's Cabinet?

    I didn't know that CarPro had updated CQuartz to v3 and that obviously got my attention since I plan to re-coat my girl in the near future. I've been very happy with v2 (four years ago,) so I'm anxious to try the new formula, Alberto (@larr12) and I would very much like to hear your comments...
  4. What's In DFB's Cabinet?

    LOVED this, Alberto! That's my feeling, Alex. It seems most of us are plagued by serious cases of OCD <smiling> and because of that issue, we are always in search of "better." But eventually, at least in my case, we find that the old addage is right on.. "Better is the enemy of good." <grin>...
  5. How Often Do You Wash Your Car?

    Thanks for the kind words, Martin and, for reminding me it's time to change the avatar. <smile> Do they ever, Eric! When you're working every day, there never seems to be enough time for everything but somehow, you manage to get it all done. Then, when retirement comes, you think there will be...
  6. How Often Do You Wash Your Car?

    Interesting, Brian but I'm wondering what air source you use to blow these type areas out and, how close you got to the gap with the nozzle? Maybe Ford changed the attachment design to make it tighter for the Shark Fin or, mine just isn't as secure, I dunno. But to get the water to come out, I...
  7. How Often Do You Wash Your Car?

    Thanks for the memory jog, Mark. Now I remember why I picked it up. It did a fine job and made giving her a coat of Elixir yesterday EZPZ. :-) Today, the Plan Of The Day is to get after the black trim.
  8. What's In DFB's Cabinet?

    I too wondered about the absence of larger containers for Opti-M, D. But, even at US prices it's still too much for what you get. I'm gonna stick with Reset and that lovely scent.
  9. How Often Do You Wash Your Car?

    Got my fix in yesterday as well, Alex. The majority of my wheel cleaning is done with the same soap as the body but since it had been awhile, I used Brake Buster in the cannon yesterday. I've had a bottle of Lift for awhile and decided to give it a go as she hadn't had a bath in about...
  10. How Often Do You Wash Your Car?

    Yo, Alex, that's a chidtload of MILES! Based on Brett's (@The Demon) poll, it would appear that most of us here suffer from uncontrollable obsession as way over half are out there at least every two weeks, Jason. All us crazies probably need to see a doctor. <laughing> I picked every two weeks...
  11. Jmeo's 2020 Shelby American GT500 SE Wide Body Build (+ "Phase 2")

    HOLY CRAP, Jaime, you wound up with essentially, a brand new trailer! Needless to say, I was MOST impressed with the warranty service you received. As for the backup and plate lights, knowing you, they too will be resolved. <smile>
  12. What's In DFB's Cabinet?

    Having used the long neck Nano quite a bit and discovering that the length prevented using many different positions, I had the same thought. The articulating rigs would be much more useful but, as you said, the need for it would be very infrequent and probably not worth the expense.
  13. What's In DFB's Cabinet?

    As they say D, like minds think alike <grin> and I too have wanted something even smaller and more maneuverable than the Nano for the tight spaces you described. Of course, I have a couple questions. <BSEG> Are you not interested in the Flex or Shinemate products because you already have the...
  14. Beginner’s Buying Guide

    I hear you, Brian, and what I think we were referring to was that he doesn't seem to offer as much in the way of critical opinions that would definitely deter a customer from purchasing a product as our resident expert, does. Don't get me wrong, it's a solid channel with good info, I just prefer...
  15. Beginner’s Buying Guide

    Thanks for that, Brian, you were reading my mind. I had the same reaction re. Pan, D. A lot of "facts" but not much in the way of "opinion." And also as you said, by the time I found his channel, my game had already been upped (thanks to you and others here, of course,) and most of the...
  16. What's In DFB's Cabinet?

    While I don't run my girl at the track, I know what you're saying about coated vs. uncoated when cleaning them as I've had the same experience with just brake dust. For SURE a simpler wheel design makes the job a whole lot easier, Tosha, and I used the same logic when I bought Signature wheels...
  17. What's In DFB's Cabinet?

    No surprise they look fantastic after you've had your way with them, D. <BSEG> Red is probably my favorite color and I'm wondering, what's the body color on the owner's vehicle? (Thinking OW, SB, RR, or CG would be good combos.) Based on what I read in your post and, what I found at SuperSpeed...
  18. Beginner’s Buying Guide

    It's been a good while since I pulled up Pan's channel, Brian, but thanks for the link. Watched the Beginner portion for a minute but soon moved to the Pro clip. Right off the bat I got a grin when he began to list his recommendations for gear and I saw that he must have been reading D's...
  19. Beginner’s Buying Guide

    That is what it's all about, MVO, and I have also received a PhD in detailing from The Master (@DFB5.0). <BIG smile>
