While researching another topic I ran across the following article.  It makes some excellent points about why you should not immediately give a discount and how to make it work to your advantage.     Customers asking for a discount

I normally wouldn't call out a dealership for their lack of detailing prowess. I have handled several vehicles for customers after a dealership failed to satisfy on multiple attempts. One was even a salesman at said dealership. But when a dealership specializes in nothing but high end cars...

I have been all but absent from the forum recently for good reason: On Sept. 4th I welcomed my son to the world.:excited: Along with that my wife needed a new (to her) vehicle. As hard as I tried I could not convince her that she did not want a mini-van. (I may not be the smartest guy in...

ValuGard ETR vs. GTechniq C4 vs. BlackWOW vs. Forever Black vs. Opti-Coat vs. Ultima Tire & Trim Guard vs. CarPro Perl vs. Meguiar's Hyper Dressing. Okay. I know those aren't really all in the same category but I decided to just round out the field to compare looks, durability, ease of use...

This write up has been a long time coming. This detail was almost a year ago. After a hard drive crash and then getting married, all on top of normal day to day life, I haven’t had much time to do write ups. The owner of this car had purchased it about six months prior. He knew...

I went away for the weekend so today was my first day back working. Black Camaro SS. This scene ran through my head as I chased the pollen... Lucy's Famous Chocolate Scene.

I seem to be cursed recently with facing really thin paints but a recent Mini Cooper S had me dumbfounded. 1.9-2.1 mils over most of the car. Hood was a little thicker at 2.6-3.0. Car is less than a year old. I'm sure some have found where someone has thinned the paint so please limit...

Or I guess I should say taking it all out. A bit of advice: when someone tells you they feel like they are going to :vomit: STOP THE CAR! No matter how many times they have said it in the past to make you think they are exaggerating.

I have read where people have made their own microscopes for their phone, but it looks like it is going to be much easier. From my local news website: "If you talk to any serious photographer, they’ll likely tell you it’s the lenses that really make a difference when taking a good photo. So in...
