Smack, thank you! Prelude, I take it you are a Honda fan? Appreciate your pleasantries! John, you bet... I'm really trying to become more proficient regarding interiors. Thank you for the kind words! -Gabe

Epic job! Love it!

Solid, solid, solid advice.

Thank you sir! Indeed... Honda paint is pretty easy to 'fix'. Zero, many thanks for replying and the nice comment! The exterior, as stated in my OP was pretty straightforward (read- mundane, basic) and the interior was also... to a degree. The jams took some time. Latin, thanks for...

James- Thank you for the kind words! DetailingNoob- Thank you for reading and the compliment! -Gabe

Greetings everyone! I completed this Accord about 6 weeks ago and am just now getting around to posting it. Overall, the paint was in decent shape considering it is taken to the "swirl-o-matic" once a month this winter (still going strong in Pac. NW.) The odometer read 56K+. The owner was...

Kyle, I assume you have 'completed' your compounding and polishing over the entire car and thus your picture is representative of the finish overall? If so, have you tried another test spot with M100/orange & M205/black on the Flex? -Gabe

Bang up! Love the story! -Gabe

Crow's Feet... a type of clear coat failure. You are not going to remove that. Is that on the hood? My families '02 Honda has the same thing on the hood (Nighthawk Black Pearl).

5 months would be pushing it unless you maintain with HD Express (or another spray wax) after every wash. As Mark said, Poxy looks great on dark colors (and even light colors as well.) On my wife's DD (black Honda Accord) that is driven 60 miles a day, washed every week, and is parked...

Mike, I appreciate you 'breaking down' my scenario. As it has been said... YOU are a gentleman and a scholar! My best, -Gabe

Hey man, sorry, I didn't even know you left a 'message' on my profile page... I would have totally sent you some but I've exceeded my 'auxillary' budget for my business this month. My 'auxillary' is just an account I have set up to basically help other's with some things like samples. Can you...

Mike, No worries, take all the time you need. -Gabe

Mr. Phillips, First off, many thanks for the article. It has really catalyzed my concerns regarding a service I offer. I have edited your original post to highlight the areas I think are most pertinent to my concerns and if I am reading correctly, what topics you are trying to target...which...

Just going to be frank here- Don't lead with the interior... I want to see the car first. Once I see the outside... and if I like it... then I want to see the interior. I like the wheel area 'panning'. Shorten up the 'panning' for the interior... or make it faster, some way. Maybe just the...

Mr. Gibson, would you like a sample of D151 too? I'll be at the post office anyway... PM me your address. -Gabe

hbrett29- Welcome to AG, if you haven't been properly greeted! First, regarding AIOs and cleaner waxes, I will defer to the fantastic article by Mr. Mike Phillips... How to use a one-step cleaner/ wax to maximize profits To speak to your question, in general you will find a plethora of...

Dude, it's ALL-GOOD bro! :xyxthumbs: -Gabe

Mark, Foremost, I really value your posts and insights here on this board and the work you have produced and shared has been insightful and I thank you for it. We all are susceptible to a plethora of feelings when viewing the words or work of others through this communication medium- i.e. the...

"The highest compliment that you can pay me is to say that I work hard every day, that I never dog it." -Wayne Gretzky I'm not going to comment on the car... I mean, the pictures speak more than a silly string of adjectives I could cobble together. What I will say is... anyone can see the...
