This is my boss's DD so it has to be perfect! the interior is trashed from always being in his salvaged yards and our current job site (our work building) and his dog Copper getting dirty and trashing the rear seats!

Just a general question out there for you folks, for the people that have tinted windows how dark are they? Do you ever get hassled by the cops in your local region? On my explorer I have 15% on all the windows. On the rear 5 they appear darker because of the factory tint and now I have 35% on...

I've got these 5/6 things to trade. Im not doing boats/rv's much anymore so I dont need the gel coat stuff. Its about 1.5yrs old but always kept in doors, along with all of my other car care products. All of them are 90+% full except the BF, that has 60-70% left in it. Im not sure what I'm...

So for you mobile detailers! When you go to someones house to do a full paint correction and you are working outside (that I have seen in some pictures) how do you keep dust/dirt/debris off the paint while polishing? For me in this climate the wind is pretty much always blowing. So doing a car...

full gallery here: 1320Video.com Images Galleries :: Untitled I did this black caddy last week. It went thru a local detail shop less than a month ago and looked like this.... before Said detail shop charged $275 to do a "complete" detail on this car. This is work they consistently...

The paint on my exploder is complete garbage to say the least :( but at least now its glossy! Its to a point where i cannot polish it anymore because it just makes it worse. It has "crows feet" bad on every panel but thats another topic for a later time. I clayed, applied opti-seal on three...

Amazon.com: Autoscrub 6" Pad: Automotive It seems like it would be a faster option to a clay bar. Im curious on how it actually works so I ordered on this morning because im impulsive ;) So i'll report after it gets here on how well it works. I haven't done the roof of my explorer since oh...

I will start with the harder of the two questions. Does any company state side offer a matte finish wax other than swiss vax? This is the product Im talking about: Swissvax USA: Opaque Premium wax for satin matt paints, 50 ml I cant find anything on the market currently like that stuff. I now...

I saw this on another website I frequent. Texas Mile is an event that is held every year, in Texas obviously lol. Any car/bike can show up and compete. But this record was set by a Ford GT twin turbo. 204.4 mph in the 1/2 mile 257.7 mph in the mile 29.5 peak boost, 8400 rpm through the traps...

I did a quick wash, clay, sealant on a friends 2011 STI last week. While I was working on the hood we found these issues. I think its acid rain etching, but the weird thing is its only in this one area. You can't feel it. I didnt have enough time while I was down there to fix it. But would wet...

This has been a hobby of mine since I was about 18. its gotten more serious here the past few years. I try to go to the gun range about once a week at least to keep up. In years past I was more of a rifle person but purchased my first pistol over a year ago and now my glock and I are never...

Arg. This really is the only place I ever want to talk detailing stuff with complete strangers. On other sites it can get pretty bad especially when you encounter "pros" that are absolutely set in place that their methods are the only way and if you do it differently youre an idiot. I try to...
