    I have been cleaning as following: - Tatty towels (wheels, engine, exhaust, rubber cleaning, wash mitts) with regular tide in wash and DP Microfiber cleaner in the bleach compartment (of course setting the machine for a bleach cycle), which means they get washed twice, dry on low heat -...

    Hello Forum, It's been a while since I posted, but had time to detail my car last week end and have a couple questions. I did my carbon black BMW as follows: - areas that just needed light clean up and light swirl removal with Blackfire TPnS on white pad - areas needing more attention (hood...

    Looks like clear coat failure in the pic? 535 would be my guess, that engine cooks everything!

    Making the first big purchase

    It's been a while since I posted something, but having gone the "newbie route" not so long ago, I will provide insight from the path I followed. First, before even thinking about buffing scratches, have a solid cleaning kit. If your paint has surface contaminants, buffing will use these to...

    Giveaway! A Signed Autogeek Banner!

    I don't know who he or she is, but whoever filled in my last order: the warehouse must have been out of the sample I wanted, and they nicely included a huge sample of PB quick detailer and that stuff is great. All that nicely tidy in the box with everything else. We all known the public...

    Need serious help with my pricing!

    At $70 a car, I could fly you down here to Texas, have you do my 2 cars, get you a hotel room and it would still be cheaper than going to see the hacks that call themselves detailers around here! Now, since you are only doing this seasonaly, I would think you will not be able to charge the same...

Some can go on your vacuum cleaner, but otherwise, any brush with stiff nylon bristle and long handle will work - the tool you are referring to is called a fin comb. Auto mechanics, but also A/C repairmen...
