Hey Mike, thanks for stopping by and giving me the Menzerna and a Porter Cable lesson. It was great to see you again.
Bill,

Always nice to see you. I hope you managed to fish that wire through the steering column.

Here's the pad kit we talked about . . .

Let me know before you order anything though. I want to review my inventory and see if I need anything. I'll try to get back to you tonight and let you know.

Mike, while I see a picutre f the adapter next to the product description, it does not say that the kit comes with the adaptor. Do you know if it does? Also, if I am buying this kit, do they also sell the mid-grade polish I need? What about the heavy duty stuff that I borrowed from steve? do they sell that too? I don't wnat to use up all of Steve's inventory. Plus, what detail spray should I get since you don't like the smell of Zaino.

Bill, my kit came with the adapter, but I remember it being listed as coming with it when I ordered. I would email autogeek or call them to be sure. They may be pulling a bait and switch here...

Bill,

First I want to say I am still sick to my stomach from the smell of Z6. I reiterate that I have NO idea why anyone would want to (or could stand to) use such a foul smelling product. Once again I would like to ask everyone to crush their Zaino. If not all your Zaino then at least your Z6.

About the pad kit . . . it looks like they may have changed the contents of the kit and the adapter no longer comes with it. It used to say "comes with free adapter." So, I guess technically it was never actually part of the kit. If you order the kit and there is no adapter, I have an extra one that I got for free which you can have.

Also, if you want to order some polish, Autogeek doesn't sell Menzerna but they do sell some comparable brands. As long as you finish with the P085RD you should still get the same result. You might want to try Optimum. Their Compound and Hyper Compound are comparable to Intensive Polish and Power Gloss respectively. Alternatively you could try Pinnacle XMT polishes their #3 and #4 polishes are comparable to Intensive Polish and Power Gloss I believe.

Bill,

I went through my detailing stash tonight and I realized two things . . .

1. Even though I sold a bunch of stuff this winter I bought even more. So, I still have WAY too much sh!t. I really need to go through it again and sell more.

2. I'm running very low on non-acid wheel cleaner. If you put in an order from Autogeek can you include a bottle of DP Gel Wheel Cleaner for me?

Thanks!
