  1. Just thought I'd share... my first car was an '87 so that generation of Camaro will always be near and dear to my heart. Just thought I'd share some pretty impressive results on some almost 30 year old paint.
  2. The specials are "daily" so they're good for roughly 24 hours from the time I bump them here on the site. The links always revert to the most current promotion. So if I don't come here to bump it and you click on a promo from a few days prior it will take you to the current special. The picture and link in the first post also automatically update when the special is changed in case theres ever any confusion. Whats in that post is whats on special at that time. Make sense?

  5. We just became aware that a shipment of brushes that we had used to fill orders were not our usual ones and came with a MADE IN CHINA sticker affixed to the back. These brushes were sent to us by our usual supplier in place of our normal USA brushes due to a backorder and unfortunately our warehouse staff did not catch them in time amidst the rush to fill orders before Christmas. There should only be a few in circulation as the days they shipped were only the 20th-22nd of Decemeber. If you received one of these brushes recently we would like to provide you with a full and complete refund for the piece or exchange for the normal brush when they are back in stock a few weeks from now. To arrange for a refund or exchange please send an email to [email protected] and include the order number so that we can verify the purchase. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience and any annoyance this might cause. Reportedly these brushes are shedding unlike our usual ones and have been found to have small bits of plastic tangled in them from manufacturing. The quality difference between this brush and our usual supply is fairly obvious.
  6. Yea. All the time... its still local. The guy I sold it to ended up selling it to an older guy who lives around here somewhere... I get to see it occasionally driving around. He keeps it immaculate so its good to see its still babied like I did. Hasn't changed a thing on it as far as I can tell... still on the Eagle 026's, shaved pan still looks flawless. Wasn't practical with a growing family... sold it and bought this: Family outgrew that so now I'm in the Avy
  7. Its a sad fact that I have to post this, but last night we received an email from Bill: The outpouring of support for Liza from all the forums was huge and a lot of money was raised to help with her treatment. In light of her passing I'm sure the donations will go to a worthy charity or to help her son move forward without his mother. Either way thanks to everyone who supported the cause.

  11. Thanks for you donation and to all those who have bid, donated, or bought raffle tickets. Its really heartwarming to see such a large outpouring of support for a worthy cause.
  12. A long time customer, Bill Casson, recently reached out to us to help with a charitable donation to help raise funds for his daughter, Liza, who is in the midst of a hard fought battle with a very aggressive Cancer. This 2 year struggle has cost her and her soon to be 4 year old son their home, car, and forced her into bankruptcy. Bill has gone to great lengths to support his daughter and grandson, but has found himself needing more help to continue this fight. To help Bill we've decided to auction off 2 kits, 100% of the money generated by these kits will go to Liza to help her in her fight. Auction 1 is for a Complete DA Kit - http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=270682637045#ht_819wt_681 Auction 2 is for a Premium Flex Kit - http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=270682634997#ht_559wt_941 Again 100% of the proceeds from these 2 auctions will go to help Liza and her son Sebastian get thru this very difficult time. We know its the holidays and it might be hard to scrape together the money to bid, but if you can afford it please bid. If you would like to contribute a smaller donation the family is selling raffle tickets for $50 each for a number of other great prizes. The flyer is below. If you wish to send a smaller donation via paypal please send it to: [email protected] The greatest gift this family could receive this Christmas is hope and the knowledge that people care. Thanks for your support!

  19. Depends on the buffer... the backing plate has a threaded shaft that fits the PC and other DA's.... depends on what kine of interface your buffer has. If you have a 5.75" velcro backing plate already then the pads will work fine with it.

  22. Its a killer combination, but anytime you lay a glaze down under something there will be a slight loss of durability. The benefit will be a deeper/wetter looking shine... so if you keep up on it the benefit outweighs the very slight loss in durability. Americana on its own looks utterly fantastic so don't feel you HAVE TO go the BG+APW route... I know its popular on the forum, but we are heading into winter, how good do you really need it to look right now?? If the truck is garaged, sees average exposure to the elements, and is maintained using a pH neutral soap you can expect a few months of life from 2 thin coats of Americana... less depending on the frequency and severity of exposure.
  23. Monday 12/6 - Adam's Leather & Interior Combo w/ a FREE interior Brush!! SilveradoSS.com Price - $34.11 - use the code SUPERSPORT at checkout.
  24. The transition is final... we are now shipping exclusively our 6.75" Generation 3 Porter Cable Pads. Many of you may be receiving them in upcoming deliveries as some fell midway thru the transition period. Going forward all kits and PC pad packages will include this new pad design. We had initially intended to put the old pads on closeout and release these new versions towards the end of the month, but an overwhelmingly massive response to our black friday sale cleaned us out ahead of schedule. Things are always changing and improving, anyone whos used our products for a good amount of time should know by now that when we make a change its only if we feel something is better. This is one of those cases, but not a complete overhaul... more of an evolution of our hugely popular Gen2 pad system, the Gen3 system incorporates some minor tweaks to build upon the existing design. Best of all the pads are backwards compatible with all our previous generation velcro backing plates!! How are they different? Slightly Smaller - The new generation 3 pads have 6.75" of contact surface w/ an overall diameter of 6.875". They're sized identically to our Flex pads, but maintain our previous generation of pads hex cut face pattern. Testing found that this pattern meant cleaner finishing with the Porter Cable. The Ring is Gone - To promote more positive contact with the backing plate and improve pad life the ring was removed. While the pads still have a recess cut into them to keep the backing plate shielded the ring was deemed unnecessary in this latest generation. It also means that these pads can be used with the Flex polisher should the mood strike you. Black Backing - A new black felt backing (the same as the flex pads) has been chosen. It provides more positive grip and in turn should translate to longer pad life and fewer backing failures. Slightly Thicker - the foam removed from the outer flared edge of the Gen2 7.5" pads has been reincorporated into the face of the pad. The Gen 3 pad is slightly thicker which may require some adjustments and experimenting with your current pressure application as the pad now has more room to compress. Essentially the Gen3 pads are composed of the exact same amount of foam to make as the Gen2, just utilized in a different layout. Should I Upgrade Now? Not necessarily. Theres absolutely nothing wrong with the generation 2 pad system you currently have, but when those pads are ready to be replaced know that you'll be able to pick up our newest pad design without skipping a beat. If you're in the market for new pads, now would be the prime time to get em! The foam material is still exactly the same as it has been on our previous generation pads, the polishing ability is the same, all improvements were made in the name of improved ease of use and durability.
