Well, my first year of college starts this fall and my brother is moving out into an apartment. However, I wanted to save money for my freshman year and move out sopxxxxre year. So, my parents offered to buy a shed from HD and put all the lawn gear and my dad's tool in there. This allowed me enough room to have a nice sized detail "shop" where I plan to do most my full details from now. Already have done 2 since setting it up (2 weeks ago). Well, enough of that... ONTO THE PICTURES!!!

O.K. I'm dying to know why you keep your wax in the refrigerator. Is this a southern thing because of the heat, or is there an advantage to this?
 
Teh Advantage to keeping the wax in the fridge is then you can work it at any temperature you want. In my Garage it can hit 100 plus Degrees Easy. I am Just not a Fan of Liquid Fuzion ! ;-). I like to apply all my waxes at about 75 Degrees. It's Just the target Temp I have found to be the best. I alos never wax a vehicle with a surface temp above 85. That can be very tricky with Dark Finish cars in Florida during the summer months. I have done a dozen or so details in the last 3 weeks starting before Sunrise or after 7 in the evening just to meet these objectives.

I wish I was more of an authority on carnauba waxes. All I can tell you is what others have said (which benzdetailer just told you) and it makes sense to me.

Being a mobile detailer in Florida doesn't really allow me to refrigerate my waxes so what I use has to be less finicky.
 
Thanks for the info, that makes a lot of sense. of course up here in Maine, that isn't much of a worry for us. In fact, perhaps a microwave would be better up here.
 
GFI receptacles - Highly recommended when you're using water and electricity. Such as in car detailing. Helps prevents you from getting accidentally electrocuted. It trips much sooner than a breaker or a fuse overloading. Recommended for kitchens, bathroom, laundry rooms, and garages where one details.
If your present garage receptacles are grounded, you can easily install a GFI receptacle and it will also protect any other receptacles downstream on the same circuit.
Available at hardware stores from about $14.00 to $30.00.
Water + electricity + slight short = you french fried.

Very nice AJ. I see did some photoshoping.

GFI's have been required by code for at least 20 years here.

The bad news is we had one trip once in the garage with the frig in the circuit. I did not notice it in time.
