HAHA That's hilarious! Like anyone is going to believe you only added $1000 to it's value! HA! More like $2000.

Ok so your Benz needs no correction because it's brand new and well taken care of. Great! But you can still use the DA polisher to spread sealants or waxes as it will make easy work of doing so and it will not damage your paint. Also consider a coating such as Opticoat 2.0 to protect your...

Great video, congrats and thanks for sharing. The only critique I have is that I think they should have split up the detailing segment and photographing segment into two separate videos and devoted more time to both.

Because if no one would re-invent the wheel, we'd still be stuck with this:

X-Pel headlight protection film. Yes it's $70 for the kit but Opticoat 2.0 is $60 /oz. and this film can be removed and a new one reapplied if/when it turns yellow. Much easier that re-abrading (wet sanding/polishing) Opticoat 2.0 if/when it fades/clouds/yellows. Bottom line: Removal &...

Brand new car? I would Opticoat it after you get the finish as good as you can.

Some say he eats an $8000.00 wax for breakfast...

I christen thee, Black Glass!

Well if 87 won't knock, 89 definitely won't knock.

If you think the LSP won't last with just water rinsing, I have some bad news for you. It will last half as long if he uses soap. Sounds like someone who would use a dirty terry cloth towel, an old rag or t-shirt to wash his car, rub it in with all his might and use 1 bucket with no grit guard...

The biggest mistake new detailers make is too low an asking price. Also you should take a look at the car and go over what you think it needs with the client before setting a price. Price depends on vehicle and what the client wants done. For example you should charge more for an SUV or truck...

SS? Are you sure? If you go with the ZL1 you can have the looks AND performance.

You're gonna need a coupler. Hopefully Home Depot or Lowes has one. If not you'll have to go online.

I used the method in this thread to connect the MTM Hydro to my AR 112 pressure washer: http://www.autogeekonline.net/forum/how-articles/48241-foam-cannon-ar-blue-pw.html It works perfectly for me.

Same pressure and flow as my cheap AR112 and I get plenty of foam. CG Maxi Suds II produced more foam for me than HoneyDew SnowFoam. Use more product, less dilution in the foamer bottle. For example try 4 or 8 ounces instead of 2. Also you don't have to fill the 32oz bottle up with water all the...

Will this stain black plastic trim?

You know what his screen name should be? I'll Have Another. hehe. Sorry Mark can't help teasin you but congrats on the new car. Do they offer a track package suspension option on those? Did you test drive it? For me I prefer tight sporty suspension. I don't want to drive a boat.

Yes that was very helpful, Thanks Bob!

Wow thanks! I bet it's costly though, and I have to get the paint flawless before doing that. But it's good to know they provide that.

He's probably been thanked more than our cars have been detailed, but one more can't hurt. And much like detailing, he deserves every bit of it! Mike's just one of us, someone passionate about detailing because it's preserving a costly and prized possession, your vehicle. I for one don't...
