    AG with something like Amazon Prime? UNGH!

    I have to admit the AG shipping could be improved. When I order from CarPro I get my order in 2 days and AG usually takes a week or more. They are both in the same state.

    Backing Plates

    So I am constantly hearing about people complaining about how hard pads are to get off of the super gripping Rupes backing plates (I don't find this)... have you guys not notice that Rupes also does a 'less grippy' backing plate? It's grey in color instead of blue. I didn't know about it either...

    New McCulloch MC1385 Steamer?

    Good idea! Another small issue I'm having is keeping the wand in it's holder, unless I'm super gentle with it.. other than that I'm loving it.

    Interview

    That's awesome, as I said congrats. $15 is good for learning and a good stepping stone to negotiate a higher wage. Considering many 'detailers' on this forum work for next to nothing, you are in a great position.

    Am I undercharging myself?

    You are basically doing a 1 step detail. I wouldn't even bother with the 2 step for that price unless they are asking for it, in which case you can charge more. A full 2 step detail takes me 2 days. That being said though, are they your only pads? Do you always use the same pads and products on...

    New McCulloch MC1385 Steamer?

    I've tested it now and the only thing that bugs me is I have no idea how much water is still left in the tank and also to empty the tank you need to lift the whole unit upside down, there is no drain plug.

    Would this be a time for wet sanding?

    start at 3000, if it's not getting it out then go down in number until it does. Soak the sandpaper in a bucket first.

    Would this be a time for wet sanding?

    They seems pretty deep, wet sanding would certainly work. Just take it very slowly and check your work after every few passes.
