CMUD, awesome looking C7 masterpiece, glen e schooled me on the Aquawax Duragloss and I've been using it ever since.

Speeds up the process too, since you can apply while wet. Which is always nice.

 

 

Ron, how old is that paint, it looks like it was sprayed yesterday. It's an awesome reflection!

Seriously, Ronkh... If you're ever in upstate NY I'd pay you or GlenE handsomely to detail my car and to teach me how to use a buffer so I can do it myself. I do everything by hand which doesn't bode well for removing scratches from my daily driver cars. Plus I'm too worried about learning the hard way on the new vette paint.

 

Thank you for your kind words.
Glen's instructions are spot on, and pretty easy to follow. He really does make it reasonably easy to do. Lots of "first timers" have used them to do incredible work.

 

I checked autogeek and the 6" Griots DA is what I'd get. There are so many pads and backing plates though. Can anyone recommend from autogeek what would be a good backing plate and pads to pair with the 6" Griots, and are appropriate for a novice who's never used a DA or buffer/polisher before?

 

Honestly I would call there (ask for ray or paul on autopia side) and tell him what you want to accomplish.

Thanks Ron.

 

Really like that floor tile pattern... and the C7

Thank you. It's a mat that I put two faced tape around the edges and then black duct tape to keep dirt from getting in the edge.

Sting, that is an awesome looking picture.

For Veterans' Day

 

 

 

I caught this shot the other day. I thought it was cool to see the vintage stingray in the rear view mirror of the new stingray.

 

In the spirit of Paul Simon, "Still Shiny after all these Deers"!

 

Lisa, did a deer take off your mirror and crack your door?

SF
Rick

 

Yes it did, it also impaled a chunk of the mirror in Mr.owc6's hand (he was able to duck and cover). We had the top down, and the deer jumped the guardrail on a section of road with no shoulder, took out the mirror, hit the door, and flipped clean over the car, narrowly missing my head (I was driving). It cracked the door basically in half vertically.

We were very lucky.

 

Glad you're ok

 

I'm glad to read both of you are alright, your C7 masterpiece can be repaired.

Sorry to see Lisa, all fixable, glad no serious injuries.

 

Lisa, we are all so glad you were not injured. Best of luck getting your beautiful C7 fixed as soon as possible, and done so well than none can ever tell anything happpened to it.

 

Some nice fall leaves reflecting in the GS

 

Thank you sir! Still have the little Cobra, but not the Ford GT. I thought this was a "reflections of heritage" kind of shot.
