    My dadsfactory is down the street from a paint store that has every megs and 3m product you could think of. So i stopped by picked up a few things and today he said he had a makita which i did not know. So i picked up a backing plate which i know nothing about.

    I hope no one sees the picture with the Riccardo clay in it! It is highly illegal to own that in the US. You can get arrested and FIRED for owning it!!!

    What's so special about Ricardo clay that you guys want it in the USA?

    Is it just the fact that you've been told that you can't?

    I got it in a trade

    G N E Paint & Supplies
    24640 John R Rd
    Hazel Park, MI 48030
    (248) 542-1444

    they have a pretty good supply of 3m, wizards, and megs professional line. At least best i have seen in a store. I picked up 3m perfect-it 3000 (06064), and perfect-it II (05973).

    BTW what do you think of rejex?

    Thanks for the hook up... I will have to check that place out!!

    I used the rejex for the 1st time this weekend on the rims and calipers of an F430 - It made them REALLY shiny, just what I was going for -hopefully durability is as claimed by the mfg!!!

    Al-53 Welcome to Detailing

    Rejex is a nice durable sealant..I got a 4oz sample 2 years ago...I used it on paint a few times but a bit to glossy for me...lol...its like Klasse SG....super gloss but a sorta sterile look..but lasts a long time...its a great wheel sealant also....it does take a beating and still look good....

    I believe it was designed to use on turbo fins on jet engines to retard carbon build up..so it must be durable to stand up to them extremes....

    Now this would be the sealant to use instead of JS109 if topping with a wax...lol...it does protect and is very high gloss also

    Your statements are EXACTLY why I used it on the rims and calipers and not the paint.. I also used it on the exterior glass.. I also read that it is used for the baldes of jet engines as you stated so the rims and calipers were a prime subject!!

    The giallo modena (yellow) paitwork saw Supernatural... My power is out so my write up has been delayed...
