    Customer wants me to fix his broken window?

    If the detailer displayed gross negligence and pushed down on the open window while it was cracked to clean the edge of the glass (which inturn caused one tooth to break) then maybe, but to see that the whole mechanism was worn out and multiple teeth were in various states of disrepair, there is...

    Sonax wheel cleaner - user error or product failure?

    To whoever used sonax as a tire cleaner.....its not a tire cleaner, thats why you have an APC. Sonax can get the job done, but on those wheels you need something to remove the embedded baked on dust. You arent going to be able to remove that with a wheel cleaner too easily. I remember some...

    When did the GG polisher change from Professional to Amateur??

    Old: 3-4 Wax 5-6 Polish New: 2-3 Wax 4-5 Polish Comparing the two, you would think maybe they bumped up the power needing less speed on the new unit, but comparing them side by side, 4.5 on the 6" seemed less powerful than the pro model. Just to make clear, when i do polish with either...

    When did the GG polisher change from Professional to Amateur??

    When my polisher died last, i removed the brushes. This is after about 1.5 months polishing about 1-2 cars a week. (2 brushes to the right are old, left are brand new) To see the brushes that worn already, and so unevenly I can see why they stop. I replaced the brushes and knock on wood has...

    Meguiars Quik Interior Detailer stock

    Its in the detailer line because it wouldnt sell otc at say walmart if they offered gallon sizes in the consumer line. The "detailer" will use more of it thus need for it to be in the gallon size. And as far as discontinued, nope, its still listed under Meguiars new website design.

    Got my "Write a review and Win" goodie box!

    I just wanted to update this thread and say thank you again. I was on a detail doing a 2011 Subaru STI in red and everything I was throwing at it was leaving pad abrasion (zAIO on a white pad, m205 on white and black) until I reached for the Wolfgang Finishing Glaze 3.0. That stuff worked like a...

    G110V2 cord replacement tutorial w/photos

    Trust me, soap did help, but so did some strategic razor blade cutting. The replacement cord i used was significantly thicker thus it put much more pressure in places the thinner cord didnt. But i got it and it works now. New cord has a 3 year warranty so we will see.
