    Chemical Guys Citrus Wash and Gloss ratio question in a foam cannon.

    Fill about 1 inch with cw&g, the rest with water. Set the knob to highest soap dilution. I get 2 cars worth of foam from this method with mtm hydro and a 1700psi electric karcher. Cw&g or any soap/shampoo likely cant strip lsp in any dilution either. Much talk of that recently on here.

    Engine detailing

    Mike wrote an awesome article on this. I did my first one recently, never bothered before, and it turned out well. Itll get better with practice though. Plus it was my 17 y/o truck that i used to offroad in, so that made it challenging. I used megs apc plus and then amazing rolloff for...

    just got my wheel woolies...now disappointed ....

    I think some are misunderstanding. I bought real WW from AG with the "real wool" description. What i received from AG (after a backorder) was synthetic material from the WW/braun brand. I only spent that much because i wanted wool. Im betting that braun changed material to save money and didnt...

    just got my wheel woolies...now disappointed ....

    So i had made an order for the 3 pack and one of the bent ones about a month ago. The descriptions on AG said the 3pk were made of wool and the other was synthetic. I remember this because i was debating the cost, and wool being more expensive, i convinced myself to buy them. (AG listing for the...

    Best odor neutralizer?

    I wanted an ozone machine but then read some govt safety warnings and research on health hazzards and effectiveness, sounds pretty dangerous or at least too risky for me to gamble on.

    bring the shine to the car

    To be fair, his car was not cnc'd from one piece of material , there are many tolerances that stack to form that gap, and those individual tolerances are controlled by the process that makes the part the feature is on (plastic, sheetmetal both dont hold tight tolerances) . Different companies...

    Mid-size trucks?

    Tacoma/pickup hasn't really had much of any competition since the mid 80s... with the different options, the mostly great drivetrains, body styles, and suv all on the same platform, aftermarket and offroad support, what else compares? Its much bigger now so mid size instead of small truck, but...

    Review: Covercraft Custom UVS Heat Shield

    These look very similar to oe bmw shades which are great quality. Much better than the foil bubble wrap type which have their edging material dry and flake off making a mess.

    Do You Wash A 2nd Time After Waxing?

    He probably meant after polishing, not waxing. Maybe to remove some dusting from polishing. I dont do it, but some others do.

    Contract Job Need Advice PLEASE!

    Its a no brainer for you to provide supplies and tools for an extra 20% if he is willing. You then own your stuff and dont have to deal with someone else when you need to restock. Plus, even at $100 per hour (what he charges), you get 60 instead of 40. You probably wont be using more than $20...
