^^ I've got a lot of products I use now including a products called speed glaze which removes swirls. A pure polish which is used with the polisher and the nxt wax of course all this started with a clay bay. So I take a couple of steps before the wax.

This is the polisher I'm thinking about buying http://www.autopia-carcare.com/pc-7424.html
Supposably the D/A polisher is made for meguiars by porter cable. Yes, you can get the D/A for ~$150 and 10% off everything else they sell w/ free shipping (i think it was free).

Maybe... but I'm trying to figure out what time I'd have to leave work to get there around 5pm...

Hey Ed, if it is a small group we could do it over here at my place. I know B-UNit wanted to come check out my Veilside kit and we should have the house back together from our remodel this weekend(almost all the way). I figure I can park two cars in the driveway and we are the last house on a dead end street, so we can park about six other cars right in front of the house. Of course we need to figure out what day and I need to clear it with the wife, but it should work. Let me know.

Just curious, do you have lots of shade available? It's rather important for this kind of meet.

Not really, I mean we could set up some pop-up tents, because it is the end of a dead end street.....It just sounded like no one had a place to do it. Let me know if we can make this work.

Sounds like fun!!!

There's a pretty good parking lot at UCLA that we could use. We can do the detailing in the shade and check the results by driving up to the roof level to see it in sunlight.

If we do it on a Sunday, it's unlikely anyone would even notice, let alone getting hassled by parking enforcement or UCPD.

If it is on a weekened we can do it at my office parking lot where I work. It is in Los Alamitos and plenty of parking. We will even have access to electricity. It is in a private business lot and no one in the other businesses work on weekeneds. We also will not have to worry about Law Enforcement because a have access to building.
