I'm at about 4-5 hours depending on wheel conditions. First 2-3 hours is prep, washing, cleaning wheels, wells, jambs iron and decon. Polishing is quick going through 4-5 pads, I don't clean them on the fly, just swap out.

I start at $180 for cars, unless you bring me a lux liner like a Lincoln Towncar, trucks, $280. I also through in iron decon during the process.

I am an IT guy for a Bank. I do system admin, yeah, sometimes I have after hours work, however most of it I schedule tasks to do. I detail on the side during the weekends, I started at the beginning of April this year, booked into June and this is my 5th year doing it. I plan get a way...

I've used both as well as car pro and IGL window coatings. I have IGL right now but keep Rain-X around for people that i do quick details for. I might be lazy or who knows but I spray the windshield with rain-x before washing, then wash the car, no after buffing.

Waste, the reason for the second coat is to ensure even coverage. CP is one of the big companies that boosts needing multiple coats. I think this goes along with the guys who offer 30 step details, it's just flashy show.

yes, I just renewed my membership and it's wonky to find the spot to pay.

I use them, but they won't be discussed on this forum.

I infered optimum opti-seal to be what he was talking about. I don't get to see pictures on my work PC so I was unaware of a photo. Sorry.

I bought the punch, going to punch some out, however I need to figure out how to thin the pads, I think a full thickness pad would be too much.

Thanks for the input, I'll try the 5 inchers next time around!

When it comes to the matte stripes, tape them off with painters tape and make sure, very, super sure not to hit them with a polisher. Once they shine, they shine forever! I coat them with IGL Kenzo as it doesn't make them shine, it does alter the look a little but it makes them deeper. There...

Hey man, nice ride! I had the pleasure of taking care of a new mango cat last week. I did clay it, as I clay all my details. I followed up with menz 2500 with a white hybrid pad. I coated it after with IGL Kenzo. Turned out beautiful. I did my own cat with the same combo and a SCAT pack as...

I have several, in white, orange and gray. I for the life of me cannot get the gray pads to work for me. I have used Menz 400 and 2500 with the gray pad, the pad seems to bounce around and produce inconsistent product dispersion. The white pads work phenomenal with Megs reconditioning cream...

This is, sadly, typical of them. Just search. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G930A using Tapatalk
