I almost strictly use blue Huck Surgical towels for cleaning glass.

It sounds like you need a Werner aluminum work platform. It is available from Lowes and Homedepot. You can usually pick one up for half price during one of their major sales if you can wait.

Thank you Marco. I polish in my two car garage most 75% of the time. One bay is dedicated to detailing and is equipped with fluorescent lighting. Sometimes I do have to polish in my driveway though when I detail oversized vehicles such as Escalades or lifted trucks. When polishing such...

Below are two before and after videos that showcase the amazing beading of Optimum Coatings. Don't forget to watch in HD. Opti-Coat [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lmp32amtEYw]Auto Detailing: Optimum Polymer Technologies Opti-Coat - OPT Paint Coating - YouTube[/video] Opti-Glass...

Thanks. The soft Honda paint was no match for the Rupes 15 and Menzerna polishes. I was able to achieve approximately a 90% correction on this vehicle.

The most heavily contaminated vehicle that I have ever clayed was a MK6 Volkswagen GTI that had less than 5,000 Miles. This lovely picture was taken after claying just a portion of the hood.

For the last four years I have been using the PCXP and the vibration would cause my fingers to go numb on big jobs. The Rupes is much smoother than the Porter Cable and well worth the price. I have used the Rupes for roughly 20 hours since purchasing it and haven't experienced anymore numbness...

Thank you. I used Menzerna Intensive Polish paired with a Lake Country orange pad for the compounding. For the polishing used Menzerna Final Polish on a white Lake Country pad. Direct sunllight can be an issue on warmer days or if the vehicle has been baking in the sun all day prior to...

This Vivid Blue Pearl EP3 Honda Civic SI was coated using all three of Optimum Polymer Technologies coatings. OPT paint and glass coatings offer unbeatable durability and vehicle protection. Detailing Performed: Major Paint Correction Opti-Coat application Opti-Glass application...

Thanks. The owner was quite impressed with how the paint correction turned out. Thank you. I am glad you liked the video. The vehicle owner is a member in a S2000 club with a few hundred members so you might see another S2000 video in the future. Thank you for watching. Thanks for the...

Nice job. The grille on the RS5 looks like it takes for ever to protect with all of the honeycomb plastic. it is a shame the owner didn't call you before having their vehicle hacked up by the other guys.

I recently had the pleasure of detailing this low mileage 2005 Honda S2000 and wanted to share the video with everyone. I performed a Minor Paint Correction, Interior Rejuvenation Detail and Engine Compartment Detail on this vehicle. I was able to achieve roughly a 95% correction using...

I have been using OPC diluted at 6/1 on interior surfaces for four years now without a problem. Knock on wood. I spray OPC onto a horse hair brush or microfiber towel and then begin to clean. After a good cleaning with OPC I like to make a few passes with the steam cleaner to remove any...

Thank you and you're welcome. I hope to work some paint correction footage into the next video. I use Sony Vegas Platinum 11 to edit my videos. Sony Vegas offers everything that I need at this time. While Vegas doesn't compare to programs like Final Cut Pro or Adobe Premiere Pro it is a...

I wanted to share my latest detailing video with my fellow Autogeeks and I look forward to your valued feedback. This is my first attempt at using my Glidecam XR-1000 and GoPro Hero3 Black Edition to make a detailing video. Products Used: Clean Wheel Lug Nut Brush Daytona Speed Master mini...

Well said. There is no sense in buying a high-dollar extractor that is going to get used once a year.

The German Upholstery Brush is great for removing pet hair. Since the dogs are getting in the car while they are wet a steam cleaner probably won't cut it. For heavily soiled cloth interiors a hot water extractor is the way to go. How often do you detail vehicles like this? A good hot...

You're not alone. I will post up a picture of my Jeep when I get a chance. It has been way to cold to wash and the Jeep is extra salty from going snowboarding.

I wonder if you could make a frame out of sheet metal. Since the GoPro mounts use a metal screw to attach the camera a metal frame may not cause any interference. I wish there was a way to power the GoPro externally and still retain the waterproof housing. Like how electric toothbrushes...

When you download the firmware onto the GoPro you name your WIFI network and create a password. For the app to work you have to connect to your GoPro WIFI network before connecting to GoPro. Be sure to buy extra batteries. I have used the Hero3 a few times now and the battery lasts anywhere...
