    Mechanic thought he was doing me a favor

    I was a tech for a long time and usually the customer doesn't want to do that because they don't need to. Think of it this way, when you change your spark plug wires do you change your distributor cap? Coils are essentially individual distributor caps that take the spark directly to the spark...

    An SUV is much larger and could possibly take you one to two more hours depending on how much you have to work the product and how large the SUV is. I mean a Mazda Tribute and a Caddillac Escalade are both SUV's but one is much larger than the other. I would just say that you offer a one step...

    Mechanic thought he was doing me a favor

    I put those signs in my car and they still wash it. They always say that they are a professional detail shop. I always make them see my car before I take it in and after I leave. They won't pay me to detail it, and I don't want anyone else touching my car so I have learned to just use glaze...

    Shampooing carpet

    The price depends on what brand and quality you want. I have a Durrmaid 1600 and I paid around $600 for mine. When this one goes out, I want to pick up a Mytee though. Usually if the stain isn't too bad steam will take it out just fine, but if the stain was caused by liquid like coke, coffee...

    Shampooing carpet

    I always use a hot water extractor first then steam with either Lightning Fast stain remover from Chemical Guys or Folex (sometimes both). Lightning Fast Can be extracted, Folex is supposed to just sit and allowed to dry.

    Opinion on these micro fibers

    I agree, those are good towels. I have the blue ones just like it. I usually do a waterless wash with the longer nap of those and then buff with a clean workhorse towel. I am in the process of converting to Cobra towels though, I just like them better and feel they are better quality.

    Metallic Blue Golf R

    That's my favorite color on a R as well, it just looks so good, especially at dawn and dusk.

    Metallic Blue Golf R

    He doesn't know if its ever been waxed. He said maybe the dealer did it when he bought it. He is reading up on car care on Auto Geek now so that this doesn't happen again.

    Thank you, the owner was very happy with the results. Until today, that car hasn't seen wax in three years.

    Metallic Blue Golf R

    Today I did a paint correction on a Golf R. I don't have any 50/50 shots because the sun was just too bright to give us a good one but he had swirls and light scratches all over the car. Nothing too bad, just enough to bug him. So after 7 hours of buffing with V34 on an orange Hex Logic pad...

    Ever walk to your car; stop and stare?

    I was talking about an empty parking lot, well not many cars in it. I understand extremes but hate when I go to work and there is some A-hole in the lot double parked and sideways with three others just like him. We have 745 people that work in our office and only 700 parking spots, it gets...
