I thought the OHC was the heavier cutter, but the label says the OC is heavier from what I can gain. Anybody know?

I just got a Hitachi Rotary. I use 6" Edge 2k pads and have orange/heavy cut, yellow/medium cut, green/light cut, blue/polishing, and white/finishing. Since it was recommended to me, I purchased Optimum OP, OC, and OHC. Using 1100-1300, I cannot even get simple swirls out. I tried on two...

It I'm going to put a sealant over my Carnauba, do I need to wait for the nuba to cure, or can the sealant me put over it right away? Thanks.

I just purchased a Mytee 8070 that hasn't even arrived yet, but I have NO IDEA what chemicals to use with it. Can someone please direct me in the right direction for the proper products and their uses. Thanks.

I just got a Hitachi rotary and have used it a few times with fairly good results. I have Edge 2K 6" pads (that I used with my PC prior), and I'm wanting suggestions on the best polish/compoud to remove moderate swirls. It seems like most of the vehilces I do have moderate swirls. I've...

What's the trim treatment that everybody is using now? For rough plastic mirrors, rubber around windows, plastic bumpers, etc. Anybody find anything that brings the black back and doesn't just wash off and streak? Thanks.

I just got a rotary buffer, which I haven't used yet. I have Edge 2k pads that I bought also. I use Chemical Guys Spider Web and Pro-Polish for correction. Can someone tell me what Edge pad and buffer speed I should be using with the Spider Web and Pro-Polish products? I don't want to burn...

I just purchased a Hitchi rotary. I've been using a PC for 10 years now, and decided to step up to hopefully get better results in less time. I need some advice though. Again, it's a Hitachi and I'll be using 6" Edge pads that I also use on my PC. I use Chemical Guys products...mainly...

I've been looking at getting a rotary, I have heard good things about the Metabo and Hitachi. What's the best? I notice the Metabo, which many people like, only has 6.4 amps. Isn't that a little under powered? Any suggestions? I just want to buy a good one up front.

I currely use CG spider web for removing swirls with my PC. I starts agressive and breaks down to a fine polish, and it seems to work pretty well with an Edge light or medium cutting pad. Sometimes I still have light swirls on really bad finishes. Wondered if anyone had used Spider Web with a...

Prior to doing a full detail, I like to get the surface as clean and wax-free as possible. Dawn seems to work real good, and it's cheap. Is there anything better than Dawn for simply stripping the finish down to begin a detail?

I'm looking at buying a My-Tee Lite II carpet extractor and was wondering what kind of cleaner I need. Do I want something that is mixed in the machine or just something that sprays on the carpet prior to extraction? What's everybody using?

I'm looking at buying products for my upstart business. Which products are better...Chemical Guys or Poorboy's? Obviously I'd be looking for the best three-stage for upper-cost details, and a AIO for lower-cost...then a true wax aleternative for show cars. Chemical Guys or Poorboy's And...

I'm intersted in seeing price sheets from different shops. I'd like to see what packages you've put together and what prices your charging for those services. I'm not wanting to see "discount" detailers stuff; I'm looking for price sheets from guys do 6 hour details.

I'm just getting into detailing and would like a recommendation on a carpet extractor. I'm looking for something that's not real expensive, but will give me a clean interior that can be done quickly. What's everybody out there using and recommend? Thanks.

Seems like both the PC and Cyclo are very popular, and I'd like to know which is the better unit. Assuming that the cost doesn't matter, what would all you professionals buy and why? And if there is any other popular DAs out there, let me know about those too.

Since 16, I've always been in love with cars and making them "shine". I one of those people that some think are crazy because I'm obsessed with my vehicle appearance. I've detailed cars for family, friends, and a few people that just asked me to. I'm now interested in going to the next...

Like everything else, it says it's the best. Looks like a blend product. Anyone used it yet? I haven't seen anything on here about it. http://store.yahoo.com/tolae/toltradcarwa.html
