I spend all of last night watching your Youtube videos.
10 parts on fixing that hood on the o'meano... full of great tips..

As for product endorsements, I'll be using Zaino, but still found the videos useful.
I'll be buying a leaf blower and some hose couplings this weekend! :tup:

+reps!

I think Junkman is doing a great job guys. I even PMd him for some advise and he didnt try and sell me anything. just pointed me in the right direction. He is not selling on here or saying anything about prices. just simply pointing out stuff he uses. Makes perfect sense, obviously if he didnt tell any of us what he used his inbox would be flooded with PM's "what did you use on this or that"

Who cares if he plugs adams products. thats no different then you guys saying of FI exhaust is awesome or Stillen is badass.

Keep up the good work junkman, Repd!

Thank you sir! :tup:

You will never hear me put down any brand except for the over the counter stuff. There is a reason it is sold there and there is a reason you can't get the professional stuff there. I have always said this: "Any professional grade product will take you to Shineville. The only difference is the road you travel to get there."

Some products will have you do this, and some will have you do that. What you have to choose is which product goes about that trip in a manner that is understandable to you, stays within your cost constraints and provides results that you are satisfied with. That product may not be the same for everyone and that's why there are so many to choose from.

It is not a question of which product is the best, it is a question of which product is best for you! ;)

I've been using a cheap electric leaf blower to dry my cars for years, I'm glad to see it's not just me! I get some strange looks from the neighbors every time I use it :ugh:

Yet, you understand that my techniques will severely limit more paint damage. You're 50% of the way there in your understanding which is why you can't see the brutality of using something like the Swiffer on your paint.

It would take you completely correcting your paint for this to sink in. Right now, you can't see the damage it does because of the damage already on your paint. If your paint was corrected, you would see the damage began to show up over multiple uses of a device like that. Every time you touch your paint, you risk the opportunity to damage it. That's why you limit the touching of the paint as much as possible, and then use the proper products when you do.

You're at the edge of the pool. We just need to push you in. :)

Haha yea I've pretty much accepted the fact it's never going to be 100% perfect all the time. You got some good techniques there though. I'm sure those videos will help people get one step closer to perfect paint.

Thanks for the sub, bro'!

I'm going to see Adam's products in real life as there is a clinic this weekend, not to far from my house.
http://www.the370z.com/north-east-re...-saturday.html

I was contacting them as they are an Adam's dealer and I thought it was a quick way to get some of those towels you recommended ... :tup:

Other then that, I got my foam gun, mine is a little different, but it looks like it will work:

And I got all my quick connects and shut off valves... to make sure I can easily start pooling...

Junkman2008 04-15-2010 09:46 PM

Well it looks like you're going to be set! :tup:

Oh and I'm picking up the leaf blower tomorrow...

So then I should be set and I'll be re-inacting your videos, without a camera... :)
