    That would have been a short lived career - but awesome while it lasted.

    Should I tip my detailer?

    I agree with this and a good policy. Also considering the year we have had, the fact so many people are suffering because of loosing jobs, cutbacks in work hours etc., coupled with the higher costs of goods, if one is financially in a good place, I believe tips are even more the responsible...

    Waterless Wash how many towels

    The other determinant factor is how you use the towels. I have 16" x 16" towels I fold in half then half again which gives me effectively 8-towels. Doing this, I typically put 6-towels in my bucket if fairly dirty and 3- if lightly dirty. When very dirty, I first take the vehicles to a...

    303 aerospace protectant

    I too prefer to use a microfiber sponge for better control of where it goes, but it can be sprayed on the surface as well.

    DP Waterless Auto Wash

    Finally got a break in the weather here and had a chance to try out the DP Waterless Wash. I washed our kayaks and my truck, all three were definitely in need of some love and I was impressed with the results. The tangerine smell was pleasant to work with, it was easy to use and removed all...

    DP Waterless Auto Wash

    Thanks for sharing Paul. I just purchased and received a couple bottles as I wanted to try it, now looking forward to trying it as soon as the Pacific NW weather cooperates. Since living on the road in our 5th wheel, waterless wash has become my world.

    Quick question on engine/engine bay cleaning

    I have only used a garden hose for rinsing. Prior to washing all I cover are a couple of the sensors with aluminum foil. I have not covered the alternator in years.

    Review: DP Ceramic Wash

    Nice review Mike thanks for sharing what looks like a good product. One question, can this be mixed to use as a water less wash and if so what dilution?

    Rag Company's Pluffle or Griot's Garage's Plush Edgeless Towels?

    I have used GG Plush and then started using Rag Company Pluffs and now back to GG Plush as the Rag Company rags did not work as well or last as long the GG. Another case of you get what you pay for.

    If you don't wrench on it yourself, do you ask them not to give it a bath

    Yes but in most cases since I have a DRW truck which will not fit in most car washes, service centers will not wash my truck. But, for those that hand wash I put a tag I made up in the cab to not wash. I have also observed over the years if you bring the vehicle in for service washed and...

    WHATS THE BEST iRON REMOVER

    I have used three and they all did the job equally as well. I can't imagine the formulation on a product like this would vary significantly enough, if at all, to make a difference.

    Advice on drying towels needed!

    I'll throw my hat into the GG PFM's they simply work. The way I see it, only a rich person can afford cheap towels.
