Nice work. I've got a black Civic Si that was in quite terrible shape until recently. When I took my car into the body shop at the dealership last winter I guess they decided to wash it with a salt-filled brush which put swirls ALL OVER my paint. The fact that Honda's clearcoat is soft did not...

Oy my bank account is feeling it too. I just spent a bunch of money on new rotors and pads for my Si as well as a rear camber kit and then AG has to go and do the FALL20 sale! I couldn't resist so I guess I'll be eating soup for a couple weeks. LOL Hopefully it's not up here in Rochester. The...

My bank account always hates these sales but here we go. Haha ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Qty Product Code - Product Name ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 D-MC5 - 2 Qty Meguiars DA Microfiber Cutting Discs...

Good stuff. This is my #1 go-to pad and polish selection for almost every detail I do now. The last car I did for a customer I used the cutting pad with D300 and then finished off with the finishing pad and the D301. Next detail I do I am going to give M205 a test with the finishing pad so I can...

Yes this will be for my business. One of the thing I do like about D151 is the price for how much you get. I also really like using the Meguiar's microfiber pads and I hear good stories about using those with D151 so I think that's probably the best route. Sent from my HTC Inspire 4G using Tapatalk

Thanks so much guys! I completely forgot about D151. I will be picking up some of that along with some more MF pads. Sounds like that'll be the best combo for 1-step corrections.

Hey guys, I'm trying to come up with the best products to use for my basic exterior package which consists of a one-step light correction among other things. The two products I am trying to choose between are Meguiar's D301 finishing wax and XMT 360. The upside of me going with D301 would be...

Also, another tip to help when drying your car after a wash is to flood the panels with water. Basically take all attachments off the end of your hose and just flood all the panels with water. This may not work as well the first time when you have nothing protecting on your finish but once you...

The only thing putting a wax on top of your sealant will get you is a better shine but honestly with Blackfire Wet Diamond you really don't need any wax on top. It looks just as good as a carnauba wax by itself.

If you are getting a black car BLACKFIRE Wet Diamond is the way to go. As far as microfiber towels go, pretty much anything from Cobra will do. Their towels are top notch. If your budget is $300 to $400 you may even want to consider picking up a Porter Cable 7424XP along with the Meguiar's DA...

Yes. This is the exact problem I was up against at one point on my Civic Si. I used some mild polish on mine and they were back to new in no time. I've yet to find out what to put on there though which won't streak. Trim sealant seems to streak pretty badly, even UTTG. I may just try some of my...

Any chance you might have a picture of the trim so we can see what you're up against? Sent from my HTC Inspire 4G using Tapatalk

I actually just picked up that kit a couple weeks ago and used it on the last vehicle I did a 2-step correction on. Saved me a lot of time from kneading clay all the time!

Good idea. I would much rather do a good thorough job on less cars but make more money for each one. It about evens out at that point. So far all the cars I've done are for friends so that's why my prices are as they are now. I think for the general public I'll probably be doing something along...

Actually now that I think about it I'm closer to 45 minutes each for washing and claying and that was on an SUV I last timed myself. I was also forgetting about my setup time when I get to each location. What I really need to get is a foam cannon though. I believe that would speed up the time...

Hey all, I'm currently working on getting my detailing side business all planned out. I've done a couple full exterior details (wash, clay, polish, wax) and both my customers were very please but I've recently had a couple people come up to me and ask for just a regular old wash and wax. Now...

Awesome job! Dsottum is right, black is really rewarding when you shine it up.

I do technical support for Blackboard. Starting both a computer repair/maintenance business and detailing business on the side though. I have no life anymore. Haha

Nice dude! What car are you going to be using it on? Sent from my HTC Inspire 4G using Tapatalk

In using D300. M105 dusts like no tomorrow. Sent from my HTC Inspire 4G using Tapatalk
