I have a kreepstool which helps alot and also a kreepster which I sit on and just roll along when doing all the real low areas. Never used this stuff when I was younger, but now that I've entered my sixth decade of life it's an absolute necessity. Getting older, but still enjoy detailing my...

I have a Makita rotary, a Flex 3401vrg, a PC XP and 2 regular PC (older units).

A black visor would go well with my white hair, thank you.

Wow, an absolute diamond from a piece of coal.

I was introduced to clay many years ago by a body shop who had done some painting for me. When picking up the car I noticed some overspray, so the body shop owner came out with some clay and lube and removed the overspray perfectly and quickly without any damage to the paint. Thats the day I...

I know I'm an Autogeek because I've purchased more machines and products then I'll ever use if I live another 60 years, and I'm still buying.

Hope you get through your recovery without going bonkers, I know how you feel. I had multiple fusion spine surgery several years ago that failed to accomplish the desired result. I had to retire early and I go nuts every now and then not being able to do the things I had always enjoyed doing...

I remember waxing my dad's Mercury Comet with Blue Coral wax that came in a little blue jar. That stuff was as hard as candle wax and stupid me using it in direct sun light took me hours to get it off. That was back in the mid sixties (I'm 60 yrs old now). I bought one of those big red plastic...

I like to put a base of Menzerna Power Lok followed by either Fuzion of Souveran on my white car. I love the way it looks and it gets compliments even from strangers. But again thats just my preference.

Thanks for all the ideas everyone.

I'm putting new tires on my car and as most of us have noticed, new tires come with some kind of mold release or something on them. I use Optimum tire gel to dress my tires but I'd like some sugjestions on what to use to remove that film that comes on the tires prior to dressing them. In the...

I've tried several of the brands out there and now use the Pinnicle clay exclusively. I don't have the need for the more aggresive clays as my car is fairly new and well kept in a garage so the Pinnicle fills the bill for me. If a car is in bad need of heavy duty clay I would reach for medium...

All I can say is Wow. You have to love a well polished black car and your example is really looking like its dripping wet. Great work.

Don't forget to check out all the Autogeek online videos that are available, they're very helpful.

Beautiful car and detail, and I bet you were pleasently surprised with the feel of the paint after the first use of clay and lube. I've become a big believer in the use of clay in the detail process and wish it had been around years ago when I was in my teens and twenties (I'm 60 now). Again...

I certainly hope the owner of the Pacifica could really appreciate the quality of your work as the condition of it was so filthy when brought to you. A really fabulous job on your part. Thanks for sharing the pictures with us, I enjoyed them all.

I'll have to second Dad07.

Thanks for all the imput. Now that it's been mentioned, I seem to remember hearing that the film on new tires is mold release, but thanks for reminding me and all the sugjestions for getting it off.

Very nicely done and the end result is fantastic. Your paint has great gloss and looks extremely deep, it says a lot for Mothers products. Again, nice work.

I'm about to buy some new tires for wheels I will be putting on my car this spring (spring can't come soon enough for me). The tire manufacturers put some kind of protective film on the tires that I've found quite difficult to remove. I've tried several brands of tire cleaner that were...
