    How do you seperate yourself apart from other detailers

    I am just a part timer, so most of my stuff is word of mouth. I just treat every car like it is my own and let both my work, and what I feel is a personality that makes every customer feel like a good friend.

    So i was polishing some wheels

    I have never used plastix, but have used the.mothers with success. I am sure it would be fine. Try a small area first though and be gentle.

    So i was polishing some wheels

    Is the center cap metal or plastic? It is possibly Chrome clad plastic. If so, try a plastic polish.

    Mother's wheel cleaner screwed my Bullet's chrome plating :(

    Oh, after polishing a good metal sealant would be a great idea to preserve that nice shine when you are done. To make polishing easier, something like the mothers ball in a cordless still would help as well.

    Mother's wheel cleaner screwed my Bullet's chrome plating :(

    The wheel cleaner you used is not made for bare aluminum or anodized surfaces. It is an excellent wheel and tire cleaner, just on the right stuff. In your case now I would recommend Mothers Bullet Aluminium Polish and some elbow grease. That should be fixable without to much work. You should...

    When nothing goes right

    As others have said, what works on one, does not work on all. Detailing is all about finding the right combinations of products. Give us more details.

    Working on a logo

    Like others have said, looks way to much like a medical patch. I like the creativity though.

    Best product to protect and clean suede trim

    Judy, I was going to mention the same thing. It is very possible it is Alcantara. Many people confuse this for suede. I am not sure what Recaro is using. I have it in my Cobra. If it is alcantara, then it is treated very differently. A damp MF towel is all you want to use. Either that or check...

    which QD???

    My car sees the same conditions as yours. I only use a QD for a drying aid. For the wipe downs I use DP Waterless or CG's equivalent. I just prefer the extra protection a waterless wash gives. Plus I can keep this in the trunk and do it at the storage area the car is kept at.
