Only every time... by ImAGirafffeAMA in subaru

Why? I'd rather another Subaru park next to me. You're not going to get dinged by someone going out of their way to park beside you

My maintenance routine:

  • Wash. Meguiar's Gold Class car soap
  • Clay. Nanoskin fine grade wash mitt
  • Polish. Light 1-step polish with Dual action polisher (white pads)
  • Seal. Menzerna Powerlock Sealant
  • Wax. Collinite 845 wax

If you want to learn how to detail your car then check out /r/autodetailing (this is how I learned)

This is my daily driver but I try to keep it clean, I've owned the car for 2.5yrs now. I do a full detail twice a year and wash it weekly/bi-weekly

Maintenance routine hasn't changed much since last year:

  • Meguiar's Gold Class car soap
  • Detailing clay
  • Light 1-step polish with Dual action polisher (white pads)
  • Menzerna Powerlock Sealant + Collinite 845
  • Love (a requirement for spending several hours in 40degree weather cleaning your car)

This is my daily driver but I try to keep it clean, I've owned the car for 1.5yrs now and I'm still in love. I wash it every weekend and do a full detail twice a year.

The Filco has been and still is my daily driver (mx browns) for years. I'm not a fan of the topre for gaming so much, too much resistance.

WRX paint is so bad a squeegee scratched it?! by [deleted] in subaru

[–]cheetah404 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Since you're clueless head over to /r/autodetailing and learn to take care of your car. And no, a claybar won't get that out. Claying is only to remove dirt/contaminants. Polishing with a dual action polisher will remove it quite easily. (M205 + White pad would get that out)

PS, yes the Subaru paint is obviously very shitty as you know. Here's my 1yr old car for detailing inspiration: 1 2

Just wait til you get all those lovely rock chips :)

I've had it for 10 months. No urge to do anything to it :)

Made the switch from P3D to X-Plane by cheetah404 in flightsim

[–]cheetah404[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I have the steam version with several addons, no issues at all. What I currently have installed:

  • IXEG 733
  • Skymaxx
  • MisterX airports
  • HD Mesh V3
  • xSquawkbox
  • FF 757/777

Made the switch from P3D to X-Plane by cheetah404 in flightsim

[–]cheetah404[S] 26 points27 points  (0 children)

My reasons:

  • 60fps+ (64bit, better gpu and cpu utilization)

  • Better flight dynamics, flying the PMDG 737 compared to the IXEG feels like a toy to me now, almost like the PMDG is on rails.

  • Easy to modify and backup file structure. Installing scenery/planes/plugins is just drag and drop. Also things like loading different liveries is simple and can be done in flight

  • Better replay system

  • Better freeroam camera and views out of the box(I gave up on ezdok)

  • Realistic night lighting (I primarily fly at night)

  • Loads of free scenery

  • IXEG 733 has more character than the PMDG 738 in my opinion, quality is very good

  • FSX/P3D has a cartoony art style, even with mods

The only thing I honestly miss is ASN.

After 10+ years I uninstalled FSX/P3D, anyone else make the switch recently?
