    New PPF, First Wash, Water Spots everywhere

    Is it on any areas where the film does not cover? Glass,metal,plastic, etc.... If yes then it is not a problem with the film. If only on the film then try some marine plastic window cleaner in a unnoticeable area.Marine 31 Plastic Clear, eisenglass cleaner

    Griots boss 15 vs Flex 15mm

    A little late but yes I have used Griots and they were louder and vibrated more both 15" and 21". The Griots are well built just not to my preference.

    Flex PE14-2 Leaking

    Clean it up and use it again while checking it every time you add more product. I had the same on one of mine and it was a one time thing. Excess on the outside of the gear housing from factory. It took the heat awhile to get it to run out. That was 2 years ago.

    Tried my 2 new polishers today

    I love my Rupes and Flex tools and own only a GG6 (carpet scrubber) but have used the Boss 15 and 21. They are louder and vibrate more however not like the above was described. I will agree with Mr. Eldo that it must be the washer mod or a defective unit from new. The Boss units are very usable...

    My wife is thinking about signing up for a future Roadshow Detailing Class: I’m overwhelmed

    I was also in the Feb class and would recommend the 3 day class if you can afford. The reason is because of the wet sanding and rotary section of the 3 day class. If you take that portion it will cause you to look at your game like many others will never have the chance. It will teach how your...

    Should I thoroughly clean a customer's rims in a $20 regular wash?

    If your price is low it will scare away people that pay for quality work. Quality will be from your hands but you must sell your quality first with your mouth(marketing) and image.

    Dr. Beasley's Nano-Resin Pro Kit

    I think that is a pricing error. Jescar 8oz. medium polish is priced wrong also.

    My plastic trim is a mess

    I had this experience and ended up using Rupes Mille polish yellow and yellow pads to clean my black plastic trim. I tried this on a test area first and was shocked how easy it was to clean the trim this way. The Rupes Mille is a wet polish that is runny. I used it very wet and did not allow it...

    Big black truck needs simple care solution

    If the paint is original I would only use a one step and call it a day. Clear coat failure is extremely noticeable on black paint.12 years is nothing to laugh at.

    Clear coat failing on headlights?

    That almost looks like the plastic is cracked or shattering. Maybe it will not polish out so I would try a heavy cut compound first and see what gives.

    Rupes Mille Polishes

    I have used the Mille polishes and pads they were very effective blue and yellow. Then I used Jescar and also the results were excellent. Seems to be what polish with what pad is the key. The 5.3mm plus forced rotation and 14 orbits per rotation is very nice. I used Lake Country Thin Pro's with...

    Are AmazonBasics microfiber towels any good?

    To answer the OP I received some free mango breeze micros from Autopia that is PBMG sister web store. To that effect they are the lowest quality towel that has ever been in my hand. I have used them on 4 non show cars and they caused no harm to the paint. They just are so thin they are now used...

    Experiences with PDR

    I have a PDR expert that only works for people in the trade. He works for new car dealerships and body shops. I found him from a Mercedes body shop. I would say $245.00 is high compared to my guy.

    Upgrading my DA polisher

    If you have hands and wrists that have been abused by work the Rupes may suit you best. I have used every brand and like the Rupes system best on long hour jobs. My hands were tingling after use with another brand but not with my Rupes.
