  1. You're not SUPER-DUPER OG clean until you actually unbolt the front seats out of the car to be able to vacuum and clean every single possible nook and cranny everywhere on the carpets. And yes I have done this a number of times on mine and my wife's cars.

  2. I still drive my 94 Integra GSR I bought in 2001 and have put over 270,000 miles on it. I vow to teach my now 8 year old son to drive stick with it, sometime around 2025 haha. Car has 365,000 miles and still runs great!

  3. How about some appreciation for the woman who seems to know the whole story about every single one of those cars. That’s pretty amazing!

  4. cgminds M uhhh no, the plastic laminating layer is BETWEEN two layers of glass, one layer outside and one inside.  If there were plastic film on the outside the windshield wouldn't get nicks from rocks and stones, but then it wouldn't hold up like glass does.

  5. cgminds M dude what are you smoking? "Laminated glass is made by sandwiching a layer of polyvinyl butyral (PVB) BETWEEN two pieces of glass." http://auto.howstuffworks.com/car-driving-safety/safety-regulatory-devices/auto-glass2.htm

  6. cgminds M Apparently you do not.  Plastic on the exterior surface of glass?  haha what nonsense.  Maybe if someone was dumb enough to apply a clear bra film to the windshield hopefully no one would actually do that. Seriously, laminated glass wouldn't even function properly if the plastic film were on the outside.  Glass is far harder than plastic so it wouldn't even make sense to make it that way.

  7. Well the reality is that the Owners Manual isn't ALWAYS the best thing to do! Especially with older cars as new tech comes out. My 94 Integra recommends 5w or 10w30 oil depending on climate. I use 0w30 full synthetic to help reduce engine wear at cold startup, and I'd like to think that is partly why the engine still runs great at 362,000 miles. Back in 1994 there was no such thing as 0w30 oil. Since most engine wear occurs during cold starting, you want the thinnest oil possible when cold. 0w is still thicker than what's needed at operating temperature, so any engine that requires 5w or 10w30 can use 0w30, and any engine that requires 5w20 can use 0w20.

  8. HEKTIC458 yeah that's nuts. I spent less than that repainting my entire car.

  9. Should have gone with the LED brake and signal lights!

  10. Larry said it's going to get a complete tear down later on, under the Owner's supervision.

  11. Plus his own line of detailing products.

  12. Yep same. Saw it in the Recommended videos on YT home page but not in my subscribed list.

  13. Prove to me what you're saying, then.  Because on my car the outside of the windshield is glass.  The outside of my wife's car windshield is glass.  Both my parents' cars, and every other car I've ever worked on has glass on the outside of the windshield.

  14. Yep, obviously a troll.

  15. Pretty much every new car needs some level of paint correction straight out of the dealership lot. No new cars come out with perfect paint.

  16. Perhaps try your local autocross events. Typically much cheaper although you don't get the benefit of an instructor. Also test n tune at the drag strip if that's your thing.

  17. Nope, there's no break dust anywhere on anything, because it's actually BRAKE dust that you're thinking of!

  18. You're impossible.

  19. Owner should back-charge the dealer for having to pay to get Larry to remove the DIS's... dammit I hate dealer "detailing".

  20. cgminds M you just keep telling yourself that.

  21. Lenard Wahlert have you seen Larry’s house and vehicles and the size of this channel? Pretty sure he’s already pulling 6 figures doing what he loves. Why would he want to be in the corporate world? I sure wouldn’t want to.

  22. Picking the pebbles out of tire tread can be tempting to do, but in the end a futile process. It's going to get all full of pebbles once again after a mile of driving down the road.

  23. you realize that car enthusiasm knows no political party lines, right?

  25. cgminds M Windshields have been laminated for many decades.  I just used a razor blade last week on my 1994 car's windshield just like in the video, and guess what, NO SCRATCHES!  Why?  Because there is no plastic on the outside, and I had plenty of liquid on the glass to help prevent any scratches.

  26. cgminds M Well you are free to follow your own advice, and the rest of us are free not to.

  27. cgminds M 2 months later and... you're still wrong.

  28. My thoughts as well, looks like it has some cool OG import car parts like the SSR wheels, A'PEXi computer and so on.

  29. We got this system last year after some asshole kicked in our front door while my wife was at home. I’m not all that worried about someone hacking our system. I AM worried about the random person who tries to physically force access into our house. And at least with our SimpliSafe system the person would be caught on camera.

  30. Or just watch to the end.

  31. absolutely. I had some sort of unknown marks/residue on the inside of my Miata gauge cluster lens when I bought the car last summer. I took it apart and hit both inside and outside of the plastic lens with 105/205 on 3" pads, and it now looks brand new. I tried 205 first, which did not get rid of all the residue marks (whatever the heck it was), but 105 did the trick, then 205 again to refine it out.

  32. Some cars have a problem with mildew in the AC condenser pan. I know our Mazda CX-5 (and all CX-5's) have this problem particularly when running the A/C on recirculate. For some reason it just builds up a crap load of condensate moisture, which can start to mildew. If we always run the A/C on fresh air instead, it doesn't really smell.

  33. ArneBergsch Watch the recent The Smoking Tire vid from Matt Farah showing the BMW 2-series on a dry open track session. They're all giving each other signals to pass when an obviously faster car is behind.

  34. I know Larry is a perfectionist and all, as am I in most things, but a concours paint job on a track car doesn't seem like the best idea to me. But who knows it will probably still be amazing.

  35. Sorry no, hand polishing can never match the paint correction possible with a machine. Even that last step before wax, getting rid of any holograms or swirls, will be far easier by machine with far better results.

  36. +rapierwon sure thing bud, and the people using machines the right way will get better results than you, every time.

  37. I personally hate the idea of matte finishes because you can't do anything with them. You can't sand, can't correct, nothing. If you try to polish a spot it becomes shiny.

  38. Watch the other videos in this series.

  39. One theory in another comment is that it was uploaded as Private or Unlisted first, and then changed to Public, which I think makes it not show up in subscription lists. I've seen it happen before where someone made all his videos private. Then he put them all back to Public again, but I did not have a bunch of new subscription notifications (which would have been dumb if it did that).

  40. Chrysler and Mitsu, actually. Not GM. Hence the acronym DSM for Diamond-Star Motors, the Mitsubishi diamonds plus the Chrysler/Plymouth penta-star logos.

  41. asses have feet? LOL

  42. cgminds M So the windshield manufacturing links and videos I posted above are all wrong. Yep, sure thing bud, whatever you say.

  43. 15+ replies and 130+ likes on his CX5 comment. Sounds like you're wrong.

  44. SEMA needs to take a queue from some of these bicycle trade shows that are now opening the show to the public for one or two days out of the whole event. Because there are a lot of interested people out there who are into this kind of stuff, or maybe people that would like to get started in the "industry" (such as new detailers or mechanics starting out, etc). I don't get why they still keep it closed to the public. Like it's some sort of secretive hush-hush insider party or something.

  45. When you came into the room to see the new machine, why did you have 2 GoPros in your hand? Just curious.

  46. I've seen some detailers use a small tool that spins and has sort of "teeth" on it, and they run it across the pads with the machine on a low speed, moving the tool in and out from center to edge.  Any thoughts on those?  I'm not sure if those are more for foam pads or what.

  47. I have mistaken a new C7 for a Ferrari from a distance on more than one occasion.

  48. 1989 Camry 4-cyl manual gearbox base model. Only option was AC. The only good thing about the car was the manual gearbox. Got that car in 1996. Bought my first own car myself in 2001, a 94 Acura Integra GSR which I still drive today.

  49. Well I don't really have the money for anything else and don't want a car payment.  Besides, we will be getting rid of my wife's massive piece of CRAP 96 Toyota Corolla before I get rid of my car.  I fix that car far more than mine.

  50. +Jason Windsor it's a Honda bro. 😉 says so on the engine and every part in the car.
