I used one of the giant washing machines at the laundramat. Cold water, Woolite, gentle wash. And run it through two rinse cycles. Don't dry it in a machine. Let it air dry. I hung mine up in the garage to dry. If you machine dry it, it can shrink and all the stiching can come loose.

I have an early build 03 Cobra and have had both forlights replaced for leaks. Drivers side twice and passenger side three times. All good for the last year though. Maybe they fixed the problem and I just kept getting older ones until the supply line had emptied.

If you like the idea of purging out of the Cobra Emblem check this out. http://www.speedofsoundllc.com/Gallery.html Scroll down the page and click on the "Cobra Purge Link"

If you are going to keep the trunk liner instead of replacing it, you could try Febreze spray to deodorize it. But it would be easier to just replace it. If you know someone in the detailing bizz ask them if they have an ozone generator. One or two treatment with an ozone generator will...

I just finished removing the swirl marks on a friends dark blue Jetta. They were so bad that just using a Porter Cable DA would have taken forever. Ended up using a Makita rotary with Meguiars #84 Then I used the DA with Meguiars #83 Dual Action Cleaner Polish. That removed the hazing left by...

rjstaff, your right but remember, Scottwax is not a simple human being. He is the car polishing God! But for simple mortals (like me), I have to use a machine. And even then it seems to take me a long time to get gid of every single swirl mark. But it's all worth it in the end. :nice: Nothing...

The whole Dawn thing is all related to the Zaino instructions. Zaino wants you to strip off all traces of previous waxes and coatings before applying their product. So only use Dawn if you are going to use Zaino. And even then you only use it the first time. But since you are going to claybar...

Here is the Hunter link to find a tire shop that has one near you. http://209.176.154.132/pub/search/findgsp9700.cfm And it is absolutely worth having your tires balanced on one.

As they say "it works as advertised" I washed my old Ford Explorer with one today. Didn't use the Autodry soap, tried it with Meguiar's NXT soap. Worked perfectly! Soaked the very dirty truck with spray setting to loosen up the dirt. Turned knob to "soap" and washed, constantly spraying with...

blumi00gt, really nice work! I've never seen anyone do an LED mod to the window and lock switches like that before. How long did the installation take you? And did you consider putting a pot (dimmer) in the circuit if the brightness of the LED ever became intrusive?

Always try the least aggresive method first and work toward progressively more "cut" on you polishing methods. For some excellent information try Meguiars site http://www.meguiarsonline.com/forums/ and look at the damage on this cars paint and how good it came out after polishing...

Six grand for a paint job is just middle of the road price wise. A customer of mine crashed his Ferrari 512BB and it cost $45,000.00 for the bodywork and paint. But that was with every panel stripped to bare metal, massaged to perfection, and about thirty coats of primers, color, and clear...

I tried Zoop a few years ago on some Akront rims on a motorcycle. The stuff works great. But not only is it expensive but it is a real pain to use. When Zoop says to be absolutely sure the aluminum is perfectly polished and clean before putting the Zopp on they aren't kidding. Go to their web...

When you clay gets dirty looking, flatten it out then roll it up into a ball again. Each time you do that you expose fresh, clean clay. One bar should be able to do your car at least five or six times, maybe more. But if you drop you bar on the ground, throw it out. You will never be able to...
