    Demonstration dilemma

    Literature cost money and to that crowd will be thrown away since they are the "Hotdog" crowd. It's not that they wont buy, In more cases than none from my experience the market is simply uneducated on what a detailer can do. Most people think we just wash cars and that's that. In reality if...

    So you think you know TAR?

    Kerosene is a Fuel, There is not a fuel in the world good for a surface of a vehicle. Kerosene is a thing of the past (Like 30 years ago) with old SSP's (Single stage paint systems) and it would create a nice shine, No doubt. Question is was it over-all good for your finish. In Short no...

    Fellow Geeks input on wheel selection

    I have always been a fan of BBS wheels. Yes they are pricey but they hold there value years later if you ever decide to sell them down the road. Another good choice that I was looking at when getting my wheels was VMR. They will custom powder coat any color you want but have over 100 already...

    Demonstration dilemma

    All great replies here. If you don't have another market to extend your higher end services to and this is it..Here's what I would do. As mentioned previously, go check your salvage yard and look for some of the worst of these things (This is saying you have the room to tote your findings with...

    So you think you know TAR?

    :iagree: Not sure if you were talking about Tar X or Xylene but i'm almost positive that Tar X is safe on all surfaces including paint and won't do any damage even after multiple applications. (Might have to double check) but i'm like 90% sure that its all natural solvent base allows for no...

    how do you find a good, honest, local detailer?

    No I wouldn't. To do the job properly cover my costs and time along with the reputation I'm building no. It would take a good hour per wheel just to shine em up to where they should be. Whats the first thing people see on a Rv/Coach? The wheels. You gotta have the shiny polished wheels...

    how do you find a good, honest, local detailer?

    Well to be honest, I wouldn't have even done just the exterior for $300. You get what you pay for in this industry. A good rule of thumb would be: 1. Check reviews 2. Gage photos / Ask to see work done on other Rv's 3. Ask around about (xxxxx detailing) 4. Ask questions and if your unsure...

    So you think you know TAR?

    :xyxthumbs: I'm not concerned about it coming off. Its just a lot :laughing: . I will try a few different approaches if we settle on a deal Friday. Its fresh which means it will come off easier. Had it sat for ever and a day then it would be a different story. At times like these Tar X is your...

    So you think you know TAR?

(Whoa really??) Anyway this guy said his wife drove down a freshly paved road and the whole exterior is...

    Pet Hair Brush

    Best $7.00 investment I have made. I used to rely solely on my vacuum for pet hair and was getting agitated on every job for how long it took to pull all the hair. My local supplier (DSI aka Auto Magic) carries these stones and I needed some brushes on the fly one day and picked up the stone to...

    Scholl Concepts Giveaway!

    Nick, For me it would have to be one of the spray waxes with this new line of products. Would be interesting to test: Smell (Gotta love some of the smells of great products) Longevity ( Compared to say D156, XMT 360 ) Beading (Tight beads or big beads and again for how long) Application (...

    How much to charge for polishing?

    Kinda hard answering without a picture in my mind. So lets just say the paint has swirls everywhere and that's the only defect to the paint in which a 1 step would greatly enhance the beauty of the paint. I would say around $175-$200. Now again it goes by an estimation when I bid something...

    How much you charge for a full interior

    I bid interiors differently for every job I do. My baseline is $150 USD and that is for a coupe that's not neglected but in fair condition. I have had them anywhere from $150-$500 depending on the expectations of the client and the neglect of the vehicle. With that being said its hard to...
