Detailing 101 Hyperlinks- A Guide for the Neophyte Detailer

[togwt]

Science and art have been flirting with one another at least since the 16th century, and it inspired the minds and lives of Da Vinci, dividing his time between painting The Mona Lisa and inventing flying machines, as well as others like Dali and Einstein



Science - includes such elements as chemicals, equipment, and knowledge of vehicle surfaces, industry standards, and customer requirements.



Art - many detailers can polish; but only a few have sufficient talent to polish like Rembrandt can paint. Presentation is also a very important part of detailing and their art is shown by their photographic composition and the backdrops chosen



Aesthetics - is the activity of combining these elements into the proper application methodologies that produce an aesthetically pleasing outcome for each specific situation



My only agenda is the dissemination of accurate, commercially unbiased information; it is my intent to educate, based on five plus decades of experience; “Experience is said to be the best teacher� passing on to my readers the dynamics that take place; the cause and effect, as well as an explanation of the scientific terminology and chemicals involved with detailing products. I hope to be an asset to anyone who is new to detailing and to both the professionals, hobbyist and neophyte detailer’s who seek to advance their knowledge of detailing



You'll learn something about detailing if you read any of these; although these articles will not improve your detailing skills, lead to a successful business or change your life.



Applying what you learn from it, however, will. That's where your commitment comes in - you need to make a commitment to yourself right now that you will take action on what you learn; Knowledge is only power if it is applied



The purpose of these articles is to show you various ways that a neophyte detailer can retrieve the original or better appearance / finish to your vehicles bodywork and its interior and how to preserve and maintain it, along with product recommendations and there correct application methods.



It is always beneficial for the more experienced detailer to revisit fundamental, to evaluate advances made in car care products and their application methodologies and perhaps change the way they do things



With constant advances in products and procedures, a standard published book would be out of date very quickly due to the publishing procedures and printing requirements. Dr Jon

I just got my 2007 GT3RS about 2 week ago; I find it quite difficult to daily drive the car. My biggest problem is that there is no way I can drink coffee in my morning commute to work. The cup holder sucks or may be it is the ride that is too harsh.
