Driveway and patio have become faded and definitely lost their luster. I was to put on a good acrylic coating, to darken and help resist oil spotting. What are some of the best brands out there? I don't want to make the mistake of throwing on some cheap otc product that will last half the time...

I agree, however even with 1/3 less of the stated output they are still brighter. I have many torches, some custom. Some use good components they are just not built entirely up to par. Ex, some you only need to boost the drivers as they come with quality dies. Lamens terms, LED lenser is a bit...

This is exactly what I'm talking about by no experience, all technique. Anyone who knows fine polishing knows 1500 is the max for FINE POLISHES, NOT ABRASIVES OR SPECIFIC MATERIAL DRY PADS. Guys the most speed you should be using is 800 MAX. The only time high speeds are warranted by a direct...

Just for fun, being in the detailing industry I can tell you 3M is a patent monger and almost always tries to extinguish the competition. The good part now is 3m is so wide spread, I've noticed they have definitely taken some attention away from detailing. I think thats attributed to the rise of...

That's because it's not oem grade. Try an remove some of 3m's adhesives, especially their weather stripping glue. Watch what happens to your finger after 2 minutes. It's statements like that garner attention from people who are just browsing and don't know the true side of things. I've done this...

Wrong, it's the paint system your working with. I'd hate to have you as a detailer. Did you know that single stage paints can stain permanently. Some paint systems are more prone to heat then abrasion. If your unsure use a hairdryer instead. You can seriously mess paint up with a heat gun. I'm...

When I went to pick up my ps21 kit today I felt the IDH182, BIG difference in feel. A lot more user friendly. Definitely feels lighter or more mobile if thats the right word. If I had the extra money I probably would but right now it's just not a deal breaker. I also have an DDS181 which I love...

Yea, so it seems to be a good purchase if it was from none to something but since I have a 26618 (Which I love) I think I'll hold off an probably get an anvil when the time comes. 99% of my work is tedious (Hence the username). The other 1% can be cured with a properly executed pry bar an then...

Right now I have a Bosch 26618 (Love it) It gets most lugs off no problem. I got it for a steal.My only complaint is that is a 1/4 drive. My question is should I upgrade? Will a half drive really make a difference when it comes to the heavy stuff. If I sold it for bottom dollar price I could...

Just to clarify, the door we have now is solid oak. It's fine as it is, however it does have chips from 20+ years and being a small style colonial we are desperate for light. The other problem is the insulating job done before is horrible, I can literally feel a sub Arctic breeze with winters...

Thrunite are very good for the money. The tn20 is amazing for work stuff an the tn36 has the newest dyes on the market sheading around 5500 actual lumens. The 2c v2 is also incredibl, over 900 lumens from a single 18650 an less than 5 inches long. Yes, I'm a lighting fanatic. I have a bunch of...

Yea, they were 142 for the bare tool. I like keeping one system but 70$ more for less I'll probably pass.

I'm in it! Thanks, I just recently picked up a set of Tekton Torx, so far they have held up to my volvo's awful torx stripping heads no problem. Regardless if I win, I'll be ordering more stuff, especially hand tools.

No, I would never get any of the IXO's. They are good for small modeling projects or as wine openers, thats about it. In the work I do, I need at least 8v or higher. The PS series are my definitely my choice, small, lightweight, great power and most of all those amazing Bosch ergonomics. Also...

Exactly what I got from a local installer, told them not interested in settling on a steel or a model that they "do" make in 32. The steels just don't have the authentic textured look we want.

I'm in NY, the Northshore of Long Island. I'm not looking to break the bank but definitely willing to pay $$$ for top quality. I'm not going to buy some lowes pre-made drop in ****. So I emailed Pella as well as therma doors. They both seem to be right up my alley. I need a good selection of...

Monte, whats the best place to order the rotary tool from that ships to the US? Being that I have ordered the other 12v series I figured I'd stay with the Bosch line. It's either that or go with a Milwaukee rotary tool. Even though Dremel is Bosch, I REFUSE to buy another dremel again. I've...

Just wondering if anyone knows a GOOD quality company that makes custom fiberglass doors. My dilemma is my house is an old colonial from the 1800's, no one makes a good 32 size door. The door is a front exterior main entrance door. Anyone have any recommendations? Thanks in advance!

Thanks for the feedback, as far as an impact I just use my bosch 25618. Let me tell you... Wow. I've blasted off my lugs no problem an that's with a 1/4. Drive to half adapter. You can get the 25 an 26618s for a good price now but I'd still get the new one with the half drive built on. The 18v...

I 100% agree, it's just like an automotive drivetrain. The more connections the more loss of power.
