How much is everyone charging for their basic wash and wax package then? State if you use a spray way, or apply by machine. How do you word your AIO package as it's not really wax since you're able to do paint correction?

Just browsing some peoples websites to get ideas on the packages they offer and pricing. For the basic "wash and wax" is everyone doing an AIO or a dedicated wax only (and hopefully up selling to paint correction? since this wouldn't actually fix the paint obviously)? Just wondering what...

Honestly you basically answered your own question. In general the lower the better, but if it was abused with lack of maintenance and hot rodded it'll have more problems potentially. Yet you could get a high mileage vehicle that'll run awesome for years because the previous owner babied it...

I was thinking the same thing. Very clever as you've basically made you're own denibbing block, but even smaller and with a constant pressure/cushion backing! I'll definitely have to remember this. Hole punch, and several new pencils attached with various grits lol. I know 3M has an...

I guess setup to go "mobile" to someones vehicle location, and I will primarily rely on ONR so I'm not wanting a water tank setup/etc. I also can't count on always having a hose hookup available. So what do I do if no water source? Or do you guys just demand they have it or they bring your...

So what are you guys doing to your own cars, and those who do it as a business for customers car, after each wash if more frequent like weekly/monthly? Just re-applying just a dedicated LSP wax/sealant and "refreshing" it? Good to know about a difference in the type of cleaning for AIO's...

Still looking for a solution for those typically heavily soiled areas.

I was wondering how often/safely you can apply an AIO? I know you can only do actual multi-stage compounding, polishing, and dedicated waxing (which I know is not the abrasive step of these 3) so many times as you remove the clearcoat film thickness each time and risk hazing or worse burning...

Hey guys a few more questions. I did some detailing this past weekend. I used the GDWM with ONR for the first time. Kind of an odd switch up from the conventional method, but seems promising as far as having a set standard of not introducing swirls regardless of doing an AIO or multi-step...

That's a shame Critical Details. I really liked that video of yours when you posted in my headlight restoration thread. Great advice on Audios S6's part. Maybe also getting a small "sign" made that you can place on the car (on top of something soft of course like a microfiber to protect the...

Yeah I would try a less abrasive pad if you're trying to just do D151 as a one step. I'm probably going to just stick with the D151. I was just thinking about switching to the D301 as I saw the full DA Microfiber D300/D301 2 step system, but still wanting to have a go to AIO one step. Just...

Have you compared it to the D301 with the microfiber finishing pad yourself?

Awesome video Critical Details. I also like how you popped the hood the minimize contact as I was just thinking the other day when doing headlight restorations. What is it that you used to apply the Opti-Lens? How come you don't use the provided yellow foam applicator pad, or the blue squeeze...

I was hoping someone who has more experience with both of these products could chime in between these two products for use as a one step for production detailing.

Is the Larry Kasillas the spraying ahead with wash media? If someone goes with the one bucket ONR Garry Dean method what do you guys recommend for a mobile detailer (taking space into consideration since I don't have a van and lots of equipment) when encountering heavy soiled areas like the...

Thanks Chris. Do you wait a minute or so before applying coats of side to side, and up and down? Also I now feel like I didn't apply enough product as I did see the wiping off excess comment on the directions tube, but didn't do that step as I didn't see anything built up after I applied it.

Couldn't have said it better Brad, that is what I was basically getting at with starting this thread. I'm down with doing the GDWM as I said I've already committed to buying some ONR and a decent amount of microfibers. I like the thought of treating all cars with high care, regardless of high...

Do you charge different if added on to another service? Also do you see a difference in scratches removal between jumping from 800 to 1500? I did 800 dry, then 1000 dry, and then 1500 dry, and finally ended on 3000 wet. 800 took a while to remove the oxidation so I ordered some 600. Maybe I...

Well I'm mainly focusing on this for those with business's standpoint with those 3 key points I mentioned.

It was pretty bright out when I did it, but then again I was in the shade of a tent so maybe I do need some artificial light to see how it's applying. So do you not use the pad that comes in the kit?
