Everyone thinks that it's all fun and games until we are at day 9 or so & all going crazy. Y'all will see... we'll be beggin' Meghan to STOP THE INSANITY!!! LOL (I hope everyone cleared out their credit cards - ha ha ha!)

I'm glad.... I'm broke now! "Tanks fer nuttin'!" :joking: Aside from the COOL stuff I am rec'd today, I'll also be getting a BILL for this stuff! Why is that? :confused: I was able to restrain on some of those deals - MANY of them were VERY tempting... VERY! Gotta raise some quick AG cash...

Friendly nudge / request for Opti-lens. :cool:

Opti Lens... pleeeeeease! Welcome back, Meghan! Thanks!

Looks pretty nice! I like your approach. Obviously, it worked well. Well done.

Great that your son can learn & start saving EARLY! Surprised about 1500 working so well & easy. I think I tried 800 wet & had to go to 600(???) wet. Will try 1500 dry. Also, I just rec'd LC foamed wool pads & McKee's AIO HL Restorer. I have a few cars (almost) lined up, as test subjects to...

@pdqgp - Thx for your feedback. Sounds like you really did a grassroots effort to grow the biz! It's pretty cool that you have a "built-in" assistant! My apprehension is about 1500 being aggressive enough TY again, - Allan

I KNOW! Waaaay too many steps - that 1 of the big reasons for my posting. I have used wet - not dry or damp sanding. That probably had too much lube for the sanding process - reducing cutting ability. Will def use LESS water! TY again!

Setec - Thanks for the compliments. I was really happy (& customer / friend) with the job as well! For these really nasty ones (silver Rav 4), I probably used 400, 800, 1200, 1500, 2000(???) - wet, by hand - either with / w/o body sanding block. Then wet sanded w/ GG 3" & Mirka thru the rest of...

Thanks for the compliment, @ dcjredline! I saw several great reviews of McKee's polish, but some of the lights i did were pretty BAD! Like completely frosted. Not sure if it would do those. Also wanted some feedback on the Lake Country Foamed Wool 3.5 inch Buffing/Polishing Pad and how those...

I did a few headlamp restorations & wanted some thoughts of feedback from some well experienced headlight restoration folks. Here are 2 sets I recently did. Wet sand (400 up to 2000 sheets then to Mirka set) followed by (GG 3") with LC blue foam & Meg's UC followed by LC orange & Meg's UP...

AG (& the rest of PBMG stores) have AWESOME customer service.. esp when it comes to resolving customer issues! Just about the best out there! THX, AG staff - as always! - Allan

Thanks for bringing the thread back. I don't have volume (personal / enthusiast kind of a guy, a few friends cars at most). Here in central FL, it gets ridiculously hot lately. I was meaning to get a Gamma seal for storage. I have the Big Red Sponge - it was recc to me to NOT let it sit in...

Thanks for the detailed reply. (no pun intended) Would be using a GG in single bucket with Big Red Sponge. Several MF plush drying towels. (wheels / tires done separately) Not PURELY economic, but was under the impression that 1 batch can do several car washes if car isn't too dirty (esp if...

Thanks for your replies. With the usual batch of 2-3 gallons (with distilled water), how many "maintenance car washes" can be reasonably done?

A LOT of reading, my first thread post (be easy on me plz!) I am about to delve into the world of Rinseless Washes! (Totally new & scary world for me!) I am interested in feedback on how many cars can be washed with ONR or Uber Rinseless. I know that Yvan from OPT says that his shop will wash...

Curious, does the Dove have any fillers or just a cleaner? Will it darken any lighter areas? I have a middle-aged model that's in pretty good shape, just wearing thin on the top & was originally brown. Single stage color, NOT repainted or bodywork but definitely has some light areas too. LOL!

FWIW, you can invoice (e-mail) the customer with Square. When they pay the invoice, it's at the usual 2.75% rate. Though I am not sure how one can incorporate that in a smooth way or on website. There ARE shopping cart plug-ins that could be used - to pay a deposit. Also, my niece, an...

Car looks AWESOME! I'd hate to see what would have grown on a petrie dish from that car! Lol Just for the heck of it, KBB shows sale to private party is $938-$1224 (fair to very good condition) Probably best benefit was ability to do an extreme makeover. Glad you had an open tab on this recon...

To follow up on what GSKR said (though NOT an immediate solution) see how willing they are to change (unless corporate dictated.). Then, buy (or borrow) a small bottle of product(s) that may do the trick & see if they are willing to convert. iF they give you the latitude, you may be able to...
