    Rhino ramps



    Are great for detailing the front end of low to ground cars. I use them on my PT Cruiser. It helps the water to sheet when washing. I dont use them all the time but if I need to remove bug residue, clay, polish, front wheels, etc. they really help out.



    Now dont laugh: I also use the Simmonize wand. Not all those swirls making attachment just the wand. The wand extends out and has a deflector on the end that seem to increase the spray pressure. This increase in pressure is a good aid in removing bugs and heavier dirt. What I like about the wand is it allows me to spray the hard to get to areas such as wheel wells under bumpers and high roofs ( with the aid of a milk crate). Almost forgot the wand really helps to clean engines because of the increased pressure and its ability to reach.



    Just my 2 cents



    BTW: the wand helps to reduce bending down and the less bending the less back strain.

    I have Rhino Ramps as well, I have never used them for Detailing work though. I typically use them for mechanical work.

    I use them on my PT, too!:xyxthumbs



    They work great. I wouldn`t risk a low-clearance car such as the PT with a regular ramp.

    I use them also, on my lowered Silverado I have to use them in reverse, they are too tall to clear the lower front dam so I have to put the behind the front wheels and back up on it. They do however clear the front dam on my Impala SS.
