One of my regulars for washing/waxing had me do a "meticulous clean-up" on his F-350 yesterday. Today he was at his brother-in-laws house and his bro-in-law commented him on how clean the truck was and asked who did it. Make a long story short, I picked uo two new customers today that will pay...

My boss and I detailed the interior a Ford Windstar this morning, it was horrible! There was crayon melted everywhere in the back, the carpets hadn't seen a cleaning since day one, dust everywhere and even cobwebs. One of the kids even decided to use the speaker as a chalk grater (sp). When we...

This isn't a bad idea, is it? I put in about 1.5 scoops per load with my MF'S and they come out looking like new (Unless there's a heavily soiled spot). I do an extra rinse too just to be sure theres no detergent left. They all seem to be soft and plush, and they don't leave marring... so it...

My Presta kit cme with two wool pads and a foam pad. The cutting and polishing pads are both wool, the finishing pad is foam. Are there any advantages/disadvantages with the wool pads over the foam? I see most people use foam but I really like the wool pads too, I've noticed it's a lot easier to...

I'm trying to figure this one out myself...I could do small to mid-sized cars in my garage if I took my toolbench out, but then all my detailing supplies would have to go somewhere else...Our shop across town is already full of our "toys" and other junk, so that's out the window too. The guy...

I bought a bottle of P&S Hi-Tone Glaze a few weeks ago but never tied it until Sunday. I did the LF fender on my Satun and was quite impressed! My week old coat of Longevity still looked good, but it looked a lot clearer after I applied the glaze. Would the carnauba in the glaze have anything to...

Hey everyone. My friends mom just picked this car up Saturday afternoon, and I must say it's an awesome car! It's the 2.7 ltr Twin turbo AWD model, it can definately get up and go! :punk: The dealership "detailed" it the morning before they picked it up, but it wasn't too pretty. The wheels...

My friends mom just picked up a Silver metallic 2002 Audi A6, a beautiful car to say the least. It's in prestine condition, the interior is spotless and the exterior has a few minor blemishes that ar hardly noticeable. Today I went over it with Megs Last Touch, IG on the windows, P&S Wipe N...

I've never run into this dilemma before until my most recent job, a Metallic black Acura Legend. I couldn't decide if I should use an LSP that mutes the flake and adds depth, or really makesthe flake pop and not have much depth. I ended up usin #20 as my LSP, but I really think something else...

I've got an interview early Friday morning with the owner of a local mobile detailing service, so I decided to give the Saturn a makeover before Friday morning :) There's some light spider webbing I couldn't remove when I first hit it with the rotary, so tomorrow I'll be stripping everything off...

Just curious if this is ok or not. I'm thinking about applying #20 followed by my new bottle of P&S Longevity Sealant. Will there be any bonding issues since they're different products?

Picked up their Ultra Buffing system today, and I'm quite impressed! Their Ultra Cuttting Creme works great with a PC. I applied some with a Meg's Cutting Pad, followed by their 1500 Polish via Megs Polishing pad, and it removed all of the spider webbing and light scratches in the tank of my...

Finally! :) I went down to HF and picked up a high speed for $40 on sale, and I was quite pleased. It's an updated model from the last one, you can tell it's built a lot better. Then I ran across the street to the tool store (what a coincidence, HF and a specialty tool store right across from...

Hey guys! A great day for detailing other than sitting in the sun :lol: This was a detail for my sisters truck, her 1999 Dodge Ram. She helps me out a lot, so I always wash her truck for free and even detil it for free. It was in need of some TLC so I went to town with the HF Rotary today! I...

This combo looks great on silver! I was needing a sealant for the coming winter, so I bought a bottle of #20 along with a second bottle of #26, to top it off I got a bottle of Medium Cut Cleaner too. I tackled my trunk lid with a HF Rotary and a LC pad at 1500-2,000 RPM's, followed by P&S...

Went to pick up some Megs #20, 26, and Med. cut cleaner, and I saw some small 4" foam pads you can attach to any power drill. Seems like it's really easy to swirl the paint with them!

The guy I've been talking with at a local detailing supply shop mentioned that they've been trying to switch some of their customers to their products, mainly because of their effective nice along with ease of use. They have a bunch of different polishes for swirl removal, final polishing...

I'm finally going to be making my order for some poilishes and new waxes next week, and a new buffer is on my list. The guy that I've been talking to at a local detailing supply store mentioned that I shouldn't even bother with the PC and go straight to a rotary like the 849. I'm a bit worried...

A friend of ours wants me to detail his truck, a 99 Ford F350 Crew Cab, 8 foot bed. It's mainly got marring and spider webbing from washing, so it's not that big of a deal. Interior is in great shape, the carpets just need to be cleaned, leather needs to be treated, and all that good stuff... I...

Hey everyone! I finally got around to uploading pics of my new-to-me daily driver, a 92 Saturn SL1. I did an almost complete exterior detail on Saturday, let me know what you think! Also, I'm not the best pic taker either, so yeah... Process: Gold Class Wash Simple Green 50/50 water on...
