    How NOT to make money detailing

    More like how to wash so many cars you need to hire a helper. At our office park, when the mobile car washer decides to take a week off, people say "too bad Juan didn't stop by this week" =(

    Obsession and money hole. I guess it's a hobby for me then.

    wheel metal identification

    It's probably steel if it's magnetic. Aluminum if it's not.

    I need help !!!

    Like where the letterings were is a whiter than the rest of the truck? or there are still sticky residue? My brother's white car had a ghost image of a dealer sticker. Turns out his white paint around the sticker is just really dirty. We clayed then used m80 and a finishing pad to turn it back...

    Steel wool for metal polishing...when to use and when not to use?

    maybe try 3000 grit sandpaper and clean it up with more metal polish and a dremel? It's not chrome plated is it?

    What do you use to apply your favorite tire dressing? And what is it...?

    +2 - I use it for 303 protectant on trims. For tires, I just use a grout sponge. I hate applying this thick purple gel stuff. I tried paint brushes/foam applicators/towel. Went back to the sponge.

    When do chemicals "time-out"?

    I have a 4 years old scratch-x that is very watery with chunks of white goo. I'm tossing it into a brass tumbler tonight to see if it'll "homogenize" (idk if that's the correct term) again =) Then again, my equally old m83/m80 are just fine.
