Hello Floridians!

Hey guys, my name is Terry and I am from North Port,Fl. I am just starting up in the detailing world as a side gig. I have been reading the forums non stop since I found this great resource. In fact I`m probably going to buy the P/C DA from this site. Unless I find a great deal on used stuff. I love the pride of a crisp clean truck and hope I can keep raising my skill level. I usually stop at the clay bar level so using a machine is totally new to me. Hit me up if your local and could give me some tips!! Thanks guys.

Welcome to the forum Terry. Lots of great people and great advice here. There is one rule though if you are from Florida. No posting pictures of warm sunny beaches, palm trees and any other "nice" weather shots. Makes us up here in the arctic feel bad..

I guess we can say welcome aboard even if we aren`t from Florida. Welcome!

Welcome from Tampa Bay! Good luck on your venture.
Harbor freight makes a great DA, just be sure to change the backing plate!

welcome to AF from land o` lakes. you`re going to love using a da. as your skills increase, you`ll see dramatically better results vs. doing it by hand with less effort. personally, I like the griot`s garage da with it`s lifetime warranty.
