I was considering leaving fliers on people's hoods even if I'm dropping them off at their house. Do you think this is a wise idea? Are people usually annoyed when they have to reach over to remove the flier? Or are they more likely to respond since they are in their vehicle and are more...

Since I normally use cleaner wax this really hasn't been a problem for me. But what happens if somebody wants me to wax their car that was previously waxed about 6 months ago? Will there still be remnants of the old wax job if they washed their car correctly? If so, is it bad to apply new wax...

As far as I can see Spray Nine is the absolute best cleaner for vinyl and plastic interiors. You don't have to dilute it like other products and it seems to work much better than many other cleaners/degreasers that I've tried. Is this product safe on ALL vinyl and plastic interiors or have I...

I came across this product at my local Wal-Mart but wanted some reviews on the product before buying it. The thing that attracted me to this product was their claim that it protected your tire from dirt and grime which has been a problem with every other product I've tried - especially tire...

I've always used tire dressing or Armor All to shine up plastic or rubber trim. Is this the best way to go or are there other products that are made specifically for this purpose?

I'm used to using Turtle Wax which achieves OK results but I've heard of this product called Zymol Cleaner Wax which is supposed to be some pretty good stuff. Has anybody here tried this product and how would you rate it? Since this isn't your typical wax, do you think it's ok to use Meguiar's...

Beside re-washing the area where the wax went, what's the easiest way to get wax that accidentally gets into crevices? This has been a problem for me in the past and I haven't quite found a solution.

Somebody told me to stick with Maguiar's products for my auto detailing needs because they were the best on the market. Would you guys agree with this?

I just ran into an ad in a magazine for a product called Invisible Glass. I was wondering whether anybody here has tried the product and what their results were.

So far I haven't been able to find any machines (other than really expensive commercial ones) that are made to shampoo the carpet in your vehicle. I've tried scrubbing my carpet with shampoo and vacuuming it up with a shop-vac and the results seem somewhat okay. However, I'm not so sure whether...

I've never used a buffer which is why I'm asking this question. Also, is it easy to screw up your paint when using an orbital buffer?

I've been searching high and low for an easy but safe way to detail a car engine. Most of the videos and articles I've viewed on the subject tell you to either wash the engine off with water or to steam clean your engine after you covered certain parts. While there are many people who swear by...
