Pulled the Trigger - 07-18-2009, 07:14 AM

I ordered the Flex XC 3401 with all the necessary pads, M105, SSR2.5, SSR1 and some other mits, brushes and goodies. Can't wait to get it already!

Thanks all for you assistance in helping me shake out the correct equipment.

Will be picking up a "tent" this week. I am torn between a large EZ up at BJ's for 12 x 17 $199.00 or a Quick Shade for 12 x 12 $49.99/bucks on sale a Pepboys.

If i can't de swirl my car now i am going to steel wool the whole friggin thing and tell everyone is a new "Stealth" radar absorbing paint job!

I'm surprised you needed a push to the flex. You already had hands on difference.


Formerly the "Best Detailer", now just Super Wax Waster Man. Not necessarily tactful, but normally right. It's good to be da King !!!

Congrats - I am sure you will be able to get that black to mirror finish with what you purchased and everything you learned from the detailing weekend.
