I have one of those green power boxes in my front yard. Well today I looked at it and got an idea. Since some of my customers come to my house for a detail( like the Mazda in the pic) I would use the green box as a chart.



Heres what I mean. I sectioned it into 4 sections. I can than show the person how different steps can make a dramatic difference and that they are actually paying for what they get.



Heres the different sections...



1. A simple carnauba cleaner wax----far left

2. A simple polymer wax ---second from left

3. A body scrub B4 wax---second from right

4. And body scrub/wax/glaze-----far right



Now these aren`t my only steps that I can do and I can explain others to them, but I figured these will be the 4 most often used groups. The pics don`t give justice as far as the difference between the 4. You can see some reflection difference but the feel is the kicker,as I`m sure you can tell.



So now I have a "soft" gleaming green power box in my front yard. I will most definately hope for a difference after some rain "since we get some of that here in the pacific northwest".



So as you can see.....I`M A DETAIL FREAK!! :shocked





P.S. sorry for the length of this post

Here are 3 closer pics,notice how much better you can read the lettering after the scrub compared to no letter reflection without scrubbing
