I guess my original thread was a little over the top, so I'll try again.
I've found Autotopia as part of my research on the Flex 3401. I've been detailing for a while now. It started knowing a few people who kept their cars amazing, but I was always intimidated by the concept of using a power tool on my paint. I've got an old BMW M635 that is pretty nice, and I didn't want to hurt it. I watched a demo by Dave Crawford from GlossHaus, and found out how safe the PC really is.
These days, I've started a small parts/accessories/repair shop w/ a budddy, and we are doing a lot more things. I've just ordered a Flex 3401, and I'm really excited about that. My favorite products are from GlossHaus - it is a simple, turnkey kit. We're using it and selling it to local enthusiasts.
We recently brought a pretty rough M6 back to nice and shiny for a customer, and I was really happy to see how far it came.
I'm convinced that a real detail (which used to mean just be wash and attention to wheels/trim, but now is a whole other thing) is the best way to get to know a car. I'm looking forward to learning here!
