    It's always a good experience when buying from Rick. I have made a few purchases from him, with the most recent being Deavers and RPG BSK. I always get a good deal and he responds quickly to any questions and keeps me in the loop. I would highly recommend him. If you need anything for your...

    I got mine from Kleen-Rite. Matt didn't have them in the store at the time or I would have bought from him.

    Looking at a Rupes 21 mark II polisher

    I love my LHR15 MKII. Don't do the LHR21. The LHR15 is more versatile.

    CJ Pony Parts Forum Discount Code

    Do you mean offer a discount code or do you mean communicate with potential customers? It seems like a no on both counts.

    DIY Paint Correction/Coating

    I would advise against a rotary polisher for all but the most experienced detailer. You can burn through clear coat in a heartbeat. Stick with DA. It's hard to do any real damage with a DA. As for pads, I'd recommend Chemical Guys Hex Logic. They are cheap and do a good job. For cutting, the Hex...

    DIY Paint Correction/Coating

    New vehicle paint is cured by the time you take delivery, so you are free to detail it immediately. As for sticking with a single line, you're really limiting yourself. You can see some reviews of different products here: https://www.fordraptorforum.com/threads/detailing-product-reviews.58466/...

    Adding factory crash bars

    It doesn't matter how the crash bars are attached, they will not work on a Raptor. They won't clear the larger tires.

    A Slight Visual Tweak on Stock Wheels

    Not to be bearer of bad news, but that is an abrasive. Polish and compound contain abrasives. That's how they work. The micro-abrasives remove very thin layers of clearcoat to level the paint. The smoother the paint the better the shine. Also, I'll assume that you mean one pass not "one coat"...

    A Slight Visual Tweak on Stock Wheels

    How exactly would you apply "one coat if polish"? As an amateur detailer, this statement makes no sense. Polish much like compound is an abrasive used to level the clearcoat. It's how you improve the clarity of the paint. It does not leave anything behind on the surface, therefore, there can not...

    F11 top coat

    F11 top coat

    F11's main ingredient is silicone. If you know anything about automotive paint, silicone is bad for paint. Over time it will break down the clear coat and lead to premature oxidation. The short term effect is that it looks shiny and sticks to the paint very well (similar to silicone based tire...

    GEN 2 Interior and Exterior trim

    Wax residue on black plastic trim is hard to remove. First try some IPA or CarPro Eraser. This will usually break down the wax so you can remove it. If that doesn't do it, a good steamer should work. Last option is Solution Finish.
