I recieved a call from a regular client today who said, "Tuscarora Dave do I have a job for you!!" He then told me what he had and I went over to have a look. I did a test section using Poorboy's World Pro Polish and purple foamed wool pad on the Flex. The sheet aluminum test section came out...

I have a job next week removing spray paint from the side of a Scion. The car was dirty when the vandals sprayed it so there is dirt under the paint. I priced this job out at 3 hours so I want to work quickly as I intend on doing a very quick pass with PWS to shine the rest of the car up. what...

I was looking around on Ebay and saw this unit had just gone on with 0 bids. the price was $9.99 I noticed the guy was local so I e mailed him a cash offer of $30. I thought what the heck I'll try. he contacted me right back and said if you make it $40 I'll throw in the analizer too. So I...

A friend of mine called me to see if I could do anything with the paint on the guitar he just bought as he was rebuilding it and bringing it up to USA specs. So as usual I took the challenge. I used my G110V2 to do all the polishing on the front and edges with 4" pads and used the Flex with VC...

Hi DCers, I was called about doing a spring cleanup on a regular client's Buick Park Avenue. He didn't have me do a pre winter protection last year and it was pretty bad and he put a few more dings in it over the winter. We were just doing a single stage polish but... I got on the job this...

Anyone have photos of old school, antique, heavy duty, Mammoth polishers or any stories of folks trying to use these things nowadays? Just for fun if you have any stories to tell or photos of these tank polishers, post up.

Some folks just don't realize the effort it takes to bring a terrible paint condition back into the realm of decent looking. The owner of this Chevy Tahoe is a guy I went to high school with. He is a good friend of a friend. We both go to this mutual friend's place for thanksgiving dinner each...

I just had to post this.

I have a pontoon boat to do an interior only on soon, so I thought that maybe I should have a generator being that the boat is down beside the river where there will be no electricity. I looked on Craigslist and found this beauty for $200. I went across town to purchase it where the seller owns...

2001 Ford F-450/PL Customs Rescue ambulance Hi DCers, This is the rescue unit that Bill (njcarting1) and I detailed last week. We had a ball hanging out and getting this job completed. I'll start out by saying that the paint on the box of this thing was 10 X harder than anything I had ever...

Good morning DC, I just thought I would post that in about an hour I hit the road for Bill's place in Maine (Njcarting1). Myself and "Jack" my dog are taking off on a nice long drive. Our first stop will be at Poorboy's World, then it's up to Ronkh's place in CT for some food, fun and some rest...

Anyone used this stuff? I saw it at a local place for $4.95 a bottle, I have a gallon of spray and gloss so I don't really need some but I know how I am. Do you think a product like this would have a shelf life that may have expired? The place I found it at has probably had it for some time.

What a beautiful day for detailing! I did an exterior only on this Dodge Dakota today. This customer was nice enough to wash this one for me, I wish they all would do that. I actually was able to get away with just using PB Spray & Wipe before I got busy polishing this one. This truck was in...

So being layed off I am already starting to get really bored. Sitting still just isn’t my thing so I decided to tinker around with my roommate’s Hoop-D-wagon. It is a 1988 Plymouth Caravelle he just got for $500. He asked me about “us” polishing it up to make it look a little better. Today I...

I figured since some RV or motorhomes may have these type of wheels that this would be the place to post these questions. Have any of you DC members done any polishing of these type of wheels? I am looking for some facts about this type of polishing so if someone feels compelled to write...

Has anyone here ever seen or heard of a finishing polish that is clear? I am not talking about a LSP that these various companies call a polish like TW Ice etc. But an actual polish.

I was attempting to re structure my thinking as a detailer and how I sell my services and was thinking of some additional services that I could up sell above and beyond the regular detail. so far I came up with this short list. Tuscarora Dave’s Mobile Auto Detailing also offers an additional...

Have a happy birthday mike!!! I saw you on SPEED channel, Nice Cyclo video!! :bday3::bday4:bday4:bday4:bday4:bday4:bday4:bday4:bday5:bday2::yourrock

I just had to post this, My dog "Jack" is CRAZY. The dog started following a scent into the snow, the farther she went the more I laughed, the more I laughed the more she wagged her tail. She had me cracking up last night. Enjoy I had to pull her back because she just wanted to keep on...

Hi all, I just got back from a bussiness trip to Minneapolis Minnesota and suddenly 25 degrees feels like spring weather. One night it was minus 20 degrees without the wind factored in, windchill was minus 36 degrees. I am glad to be back in PA. I missed my dog and you guys here at DC.
