Thanks Al. I appreciate your support. Do you think I was out of line with my posts? I wasn't trying to cause a flame war. I just didn't like how he was speaking in such a general way. He made it sound as though he knew something bad about klasse, but he wouldn't say.

It seems like I'm the only one who interpreted it this way. That's why I deleted my posts there.

What can I say, I'm a die hard Klasse fanatic.

How are you getting to Autopia? My bookmark quit working a couple of weeks ago.

I am a diehard auto detailing lurker and have missed that site.

AlBoston's jobs, as always, set the standard for us to follow. It's funny how the people on this forum and autopia make their cars look better than the dealers'.

Hey Al, can #9 be used effectively with an orbital buffer or do you have to use a dual action buffer?

yep it can probably be, #9 2.0 is very simple to work with and not too abrasive.
