Tanooki, Those CF B-Pillars look really good. What brand vinyl did you go with?

Yeah swirls are a big no-no To properly deswirl, you'll need to polish. To polish, you will need a buffer (DA or rotary...I use DA's, as they are safer...my Flex is a DA, but with power of a rotary), pads, and polishes. After that, you can glaze it if you like, then seal, then wax. Proper washing and QD'ing techniques are a MUST to maintain a swirl-free finish. It's all in the technique. It's too lengthy to go over here, but let's just say I take 2 hours to wash using several buckets, mitts, a foam gun, a leaf blower and lots of QD :P ONR is short for Optimum No Rinse... look it up. It's revolutionary (if used properly). I use ONR only when I have heavy dust. If it got rained on, it must be a 2 or 3 bucket wash for sure.

I used Mobil 1 for two oil changes and I do not think I want to use it anymore. After about 2,000 miles, my engine was a bit noisy when idling. I never have the issue with Red Line and am going back to it (or maybe Eneos).
Have a safe 4th, Mr. Kenchan. Don't blow off any of your fingers with the fireworks -- it would hamper your shifting ablity.

Yes it would hinder his motoring, wouldn't it? I wonder..is Kenchan a palm shifter or a shaft shifter? If it's the former..he might do ok!

liking it better.
not sure about the noise you're talking about with the mobil 1 is it kind of like a clattering noise? if so i havent noticed it on the eneos and the eneos helps me get up to 180 easier which is good since i have an oil cooler ps...i used mobil 1 for 2 oil changes prior to switching |
