New user from Ohio here...

Hello,

I am a 20 year old college student from north central Ohio. I am obsessed with detailing cars. I have two good friends that detail at the local Ford dealer and they have given me some help. I really have not done much research online about detailing. But I have been using Zaino for about 16 months

I am hoping to gain knowledge and tips on detailing.
I have been here for 2 days and already decided to switch over to MicroFiber towels.
Hopefully before the summer is over, I'd like to get a PC 7424.
And possibly some sort of vac/cheap steam cleaner.

Any suggestions on a vaccum or steam cleaner? I have a hookup at Hoover BTW in case there is one that is recommeded? I have looked at the hoover SteamVac JR, is this any good? I am not looking to spend more than $100 on a vaccum.

Thanks for any help!

, Thumper! With 16 mos. of Zaino experience, you're already almost a year ahead of me.

About microfibers, have you already discovered "the usual suspects" (PakShak, MF Tech, etc.)? Also, we now have Autopia MFs. Check 'em out!

Everyone mentions Lebron when they find out I'm from Akron. By the way, I see his Hummer every couple weeks
