It`s like if you were invited to a Chevy focus group, and you suggested that some knob be in a different place...you wouldn`t then claim to have designed the interior of the car, would you? So Larry may have gone through a lot of work to get just the waterless wash he wanted, and the foamer to apply it, but he didn`t invent or "design" anything. He figured out what he wanted, got a bunch of samples, provided feedback to the supplier if it wasn`t quite there, and finally got just what he wanted.
Dr. G is the first to admit he doesn`t know much about detailing, which is why he`s had Anthony Orosco, Chris, and now Yvan (and other beta testers like Scottwax) to give him ideas for products, and feedback on how to improve them. Larry is the Yvan or Scottwax in this equation, not the Dr. G. That doesn`t mean he isn`t doing something worthwhile for his customers, nor that he isn`t a talented detailer, promoter, developer.
PS Don`t get me started on that Obsessed Garage guy, he`s in a different category.
