Kenchan i have a question for you. Does the cold have an effect on detailing products??

Also anyone else have input on the hood struts from the discussion from last night?

hey mr.zman-

the cold can have permanent effect on natural wax based products when frozen. freezing can cause the properties to separate.

i use mostly natural wax based products for my Z so i want to make sure those are out of the garage in the winter time.

on one of the colder days of winter we have (sub 0F), my garage temp drops below freezing so i need to watch out for that.

otherwise, in general, polymers have a hard time curing when applied in 60F or below. another good reason to use natural wax and burnish it into the paint using a random orbital if applied in colder temps (above freezing).

btw, which hood dampers did you get? ive not had much luck with 2 of them ive tried. fitment issues. i just left my Z's hood damperless.

The only people who I would let drive my car are responsible adults (generally older and more well off than me

) and the agreement is that if you ever did something, you take responsibility and do what needs to be done to make it right. It came up a long time ago when I was about 19 and one of the guys asked if I wanted to drive his Porsche around the block - I said no, reasoning that if some random idiot driver hit the car, I couldn't afford to fix it. He said, "You wouldn't have to pay to fix the car; you just pay the insurance deductible if it's not your fault." I responded, "Beautiful, let's go for a spin". He kept telling me to punch it more, but I stuck to my guns and drove it very casually through the neighborhood. To this day I wish I had punched it

I'd do whatever you let me do to it, but only within my ability and the given road and weather environments
