Wanna vague that up a lil?

 

That was a little vague, wasn't it ?

Griot's MF pads are about 6" x 9".

 

but it's eeeey thick.

 

Tell us about the nozzle...

 

I've been out of touch lately, so getting caught up on things. I got a new hose too for washing the cars, not a fancy Groits one, but a never kink from Lowes, so far no kinks. Mel I just read that thread over in OT, if I had not been so busy the last few days I probably would have stepped in right away.

I detailed an 05 EB/B S yesterday, never been detailed before, lots of grime on it, as it had only ever been washed at touchless car washes, but was surprisingly swirl free. Took almost 12 hours to do, and now I need to do the interior, but it is pretty clean, as it is not their DD.

A friend of mine wants me to detail (I guess thats what you call it) his 25 foot boat. Need to do some research on products/ how-to's. If anyone has any tips let me know.

they gave me this red thing that looks like this thing from some kind of
a tool box. but it's red.

 

lostie- mine kinked after some use. it didn't kink the first few weeks.

hummmm.... im not sure when im going to start my de-modding ceremony.
kinda want to get my MCS appraised to see how much i can put towards
that next car. but i dont want to rush things cause i still enjoy motoring
my MCS. hummm... something to think about over the 4day weekend.

 

You're seriously gonna miss the sound / feel of the MCS..... don't do it...

 

hummmm....



so, any plan of action for the weekend detailers?

im going to wash my dd's again over the weekend. pollen at full blast.
wchannel says we might see some rain tomorrow PM and sat, so might
get better by sunday.

going to dyson my house too.

 

anyone use Griot's Horse Hair Leather & Interior Brush?

any comments? good, bad, not so good, not too bad, too big, etc?

 

I'm going to Indy for the 500 Got rained out last year, weather looks perfect for Sunday

My entire family (9 people) is here from WI...they just got out of the airport and I'm meeting them at the INO here so they can have some dinner

The whole freaking hillside is on fire, in the meantime...so everything is covered in a fine layer of ash, including Clara, who yes, just got a bath YESTERDAY....

 

so pollen and ash for ML..

 

Well ML, at least the ash is covering up the pollen.
I've got to get ready for a car show next weekend. Or maybe not I haven't decided. Graduations this week have thrown my schedule a curve.

 

Pollen and Ash and Beers, oh my!

 

Sorry just getting catch up! Just damp towel with Hydro on it for touchup then?

 

ash can carry some abrasives so probably best to wash it off...

if it was me, i wouldn't even start the car cause the intake filter will get clogged.

 

I spritz it with a little hydro and wipe with a dry microfiber.

 

Just installed my Outmotoring pedals... they rawk!



The "new" ones aren't drilled all the way through... look better when installed than the old ones (pictured).

Drilling the brake pedal is a biotch. The rest is pretty easy.

 

Those look pretty sweet, Paul !

Big day for us, too... both Coopers got their CAIs and Cat-backs installed today. After nearly two years of happy motoring, it's like driving different, better MINIs.

 

Those should look great. Got a pic with them installed?
Mine have been on about 1 year with out problems, they aren't the OutMotoring I got them from MINIMania if I recall. When I installed mine I coated the back with aquarium silicone to prevent any wobble.

 

wait, arn't you missing a clutch pedal?

 

Clutch? I don't need no stinkin' clutch.

 

There are three pedals there, ken. How many clutches does he need ??

Edit: Apparently... NONE !

I guess that third one is just for show.

 

1) Accelerator
2) Brake
3) Dead Pedal

I don't need no stinkin' clutch. Paddles, baybee.
