    Possible Spring 2014 Chicagoland Detail Day?

    Folex carpet cleaner

    Use is straight out of the bottle. Been using it for years with no problem so far. Had to buy some to keep in the house to keep the wife from taking mine. I buy it by the gallon.

    Possible Spring 2014 Chicagoland Detail Day?

    May 18th works for me. I still have a few dark colored practice hoods sitting around if needed. The idea of pizza worked great for the last meet.

    how many of you detailing without insurance?

    It doesn't have to be a claim on something you did. For example a customer claims a product you used on their interior caused their kid to become sick or they claim you damaged their navigation screen while cleaning. These claims may be bogus but in todays litigious world people know no limits...

    if you ever want to know what you look like

    While removing a scratch that ran from front to back on a new black F-250 , I took a few shots to send to the customer to show my success. After sending them I noticed how I must have looked. No shirt , overweight , sweating and hair sticking straight out ( what's left of it ). Those pics were...

    Wet Sanding with Rupes Mini?

    I started to give my opinion but noticed you addressed the question to Mike. I also sand with a GG 3" machine on certain projects with good results. I have also sanded large panels with my Rupes 21 and 5000 grit without issue. I try to keep in mind how much quicker material is being removed...

    Bought a g110v2 need cleaner, wax and backer plate suggestions please.

    Your selection of 7" pads will work but Mike's recommendation of the 5.5 pads will work a lot better with your machine. You mention the fact those recommended products are sold here. Go to ANY detailing forum and the advice will be the same about pad size. Other product choices may vary from...

    RUPES should make some videos on correcting curved panels...

    Agreed. I love the LHR around fog lights , grills and spoilers with a three inch foam pad. Sorry Mark but even with a 4" pad on the 3401.

    FLEX beats Rupes to the Punch with new Swirl Finder Light

    Remember the original Brinkmann was a Zeon light , not a LED. Interested in how they compare. The market is full of good LED's

    Response I got from a detailer

    To me it sounds as if that was his way of blowing you off. You called and wanted something he didn't offer. That's very unprofessional but it happens. It would be like calling a GM dealer and asking them to put a motor in your Ford. The polite deal would be to say sir we don't service other...

    M105 or M101?

    I have some silver surfers from the shack but M105 on sticky subie paint can make a man lose his religion.

    M105 or M101?

    Remember detailers are know for thinking outside the box. Especially when it's time to decide on foam vs. mf or wool . There are so many combinations to combat all the various paints conditions and the problems they present.:xyxthumbs:
