I detailed this car last weekend for a girl that I work with. The whole car was a mess but all she wanted was an interior detail only. I wanted to do a full detail but she did not even care if I washed the car. Go figure. She travels a lot with her cats, so of course there was cat hair...

Ok I think that we have had the nicest, the fastest, and sleeper cars. So in that spirit how about your worst or ugliest car (come on we have all had one). Mine was a 1980 Pontiac Phoenix hubcaps and all. I needed a cheap car to drive to college in the northern winters that I did not care...

What is the strangest request by a customer you have ever had for a detail. Here is mine and I still laugh about it to this day. When I was in high school and just started detailing, I would details my neighbors cars from time to time. My neighbors were always doing crazy, off the wall things...

I just got back from picking up a set of the new Lake Country pads. I was one of the winners that received 40% off. I will post back once I have had a chance to try them out. Thanks again to Jack, Angelo, and the rest of the gang at PAC.

My story is I worked at a small car lot in high school and l leaned how to use a rotary. It was a Milwaukee that weighted about a thousand pounds. I kind of got away from detailing other peoples vehicles over the years but always kept up on my own cars until about a year ago when my neighbor...

What happens if you do not allow a sealant to cure? Do you lose all the durability? For example if you applied a sealant then went right to a carnauba base wax over top of the sealant. What if you did not have 8-12 for the sealant to cure?

I was wondering how much product do you guys place on the pad. I was reading that some people use a couple dime size drops, some make and "X" and if I understand the KBM is a whole other subject. Does the amount matter if you are using a compound or a polish, a DA or a rotary? I am always...

I am not sure if anyone in Tampa would be interested in this or not? I drove by a small dealership in Tampa yesterday and they are looking for an outside detailer to detail cars off site. They are looking for someone that has insurance and is an established business. I just detail on the...
