    Talking Hi Everyone

    Hi all,

    I`m new to the world of detailing and to this site. I have been lurking around here for about a week or so, reading all your posts and I must say that there is a hell of alot more to detailing than I ever imagined.
    To me it was: wash the truck ahhh maybe 2-3 times a year? maybe run it through the brushless car wash another 2-3 times and believe me its starting to show...And thats the reason I`m here

    Thanks for the welcome guys.

    I just received my porter cable yesterday, and now I need to get some pads and some products, With all the different pads out there is there one that is better than the other, or should I say one that is better for a newbie?

    Same thing with all the different products. I have a black Dodge Ram so should I be looking for products made for dark vehicles or are they all the same? Like I said earlier, my truck has been pretty much neglected for the last 5 years so I need to start from the bottom. From what I`v been reading, I`m in for a long day since the truck is black, oh yeah and it has a hard tonneau cover which is black too.....

    Welcome Serra!

    Just wait till you use that PC on that black paint I feel there is no better color out there that once its shined up looks as good as black.

    Hi GraniteState,

    I`m pretty familiar with southern NH. As a kid my parents always had a camper in the Derry/Raymond area. So thats where we spent our summers. Also when we were old enough to drive, my friends and I would go up to Manchester and cruise Elm st. HEHEHE those were the days.....
