    Watch DetailFest via Live Broadcast!

    When doing on the "hands on part of the classes", will the camera go any higher? It would be great to be over the hood of the demo car, and not looking at peoples backs?? (Just an idea, not sure if your camera mount would go this high???)

    Can we make our own Foam Cannon?

    There is an extrmely simple Foam Nozzle that Auto-Zone has been carrying lately that looks like it might be worth trying. It's right there when you check out, and Ive almost bought it on 2 different occasions. It looks like a normal hoze nozzle, but there is a seperate compartment for car...

    Backing plate question

    Do these backing plates strip rather easily? I've used mine twice now, and it's already stripped?!?! I tightened it with the wrench that was included with the PC, did I do something else wrong? Anyone know where to get higher quality backing plates so that this wont happen again???

    Must have Duragloss products?

    What are the must have Duragloss products? I have been searching on "duragloss" in the forums and reading peoples reviews, but there is a lot of info! I have recently found Duragloss Aquawax #951, and am extremely pleased with it. What are the other "must have" Duragloss products?

    Which Vaccum Nozzle?

    I stopped by Home Depot on the way home from work tonight. I think that the nozzle you were talking about (looks like the one at the gas station quarter vacuums) was the ONLY one that I didnt have in my collection. I bought it, and tried it out when I got home. It worked really well, but the...

    What do you find most disappointing about your car's exterior?

    Well, I learned from my incident. Just by luck at the mall (this never happens to me) someone was pulling out of a "Rock-Star" parking space... you know the one in the very front. I was in my M3, and I proceed to park there to go into the mall. I was there for about 2 hours, and when I came...

    What do you find most disappointing about your car's exterior?

    Everytime I wash my M3, I see a 6 inch mark where some a** keyed my car... It's one of those that isn't really big enough to have fixed, but it pisses me off everytime I see it...

    Which Vaccum Nozzle?

    I think I allready have the auto kit for my Rigid. (I cant remember, I have a big collection of nozzles). I tried this last night, I took the Hoover windtunnel turbine actuated brush from my house vacuum and put it on the end of the shop vac hose. It worked great for getting hair and stuff...

    Favorite colour to detail?

    Silver is definitely the easiest to clean and keep clean, but I think it's also the hardest to make "pop". I have two silver cars, and no matter how long/hard I try I never feel like they compare to a black or other well detailed car...

    Shoes for detailing?

    I have done flip-flops, but my problem is that I have to wash/detail on a steep driveway. Flip-Flops are terrible to wear on a steep incline.
