Good morning guys. We are at a whopping 0 degrees this morning.

Celebrating some birthdays in Michigan this year. The Mackinac Bridge turns 60.



And the University of Michigan turns 200.

Temps still in the 30s down here.... Forecast has us in the 60s this weekend, though. Fingers crossed that I can get some work with the DA polisher done! Got some Autogeek goodies on the way, too... Two weeks 'til its first show.

What DA do you have? I have a Porter Cable 7424XP and also got a pad kit from Autogeek - orange, white and blue pads. I need to hit mine with the DA this spring, it's been a few years.

Wow, the Temps are extreme for sure. Waterloo, Iowa it was -1 degree this morning.
Good thing I don't have to go outside.
We got some snow here too on Sunday/Monday about 8 inches. Truck drivers measure this stuff in Sh*t Loads.
Spring is just around the corner, right?

Good afternoon all! Looks like it's a nice day today with a high at 74*f. Should be a pleasant weekend too.

Good afternoon, MCF!

0 degrees, you say? It's a whopping 86 degrees here. Are you sure we live in the same country?

In other news, Bessie ran into a distant cousin of hers!



Have a great rest of your day!

I have a Meguiar's MT300. Got some 5.5" pads arriving tomorrow. Until now, I've only had the 6.5" pads. They seem too big at times...

I recently picked up a long throw Griot's Garage orbital (The Boss System) and the results are amazing. I couldn't believe the level of paint correction I got out of an orbital.
