    I was at Poorboys Detailing Weekend and people were using their products in direct sun all weekend with good results. I put the Liquid Natty's Blue on and parked it in the sun and it came right off with no problem. You might want to call Chris or Steve for more information on their products.

    To tape, or not to tape?

    I used the yellow 3M tape. My parts place said the blue tape had gone up in price and for what I was using it for it would be fine. I did use it last week and it was fine for half the price.

    Mobile Detailing, lesson learned

    One of my buddies was a remote car starter/stereo installer for years and he always hooked up a battery charger to every car they worked on because of so many problems with batteries going dead. So your idea to bring a jumper box along is a good one for sure.
