    A KAIO Question

    I like using KAIO on silver paint, it's just a personal preference. I mentioned in another post that I was going to use KAIO before using Pinnacle Black Label Coating. A comment made was that KAIO would leave behind a coating that would interfere with Black Label bonding to the paint. KAIO and...

    Headlight coating question

    Is it necessary, a good idea, or pointless to put a coating on new headlights? I bought a 2016 Tacoma, did the paint and I'm curious about the headlights. When I work on headlights I coat them with Wolfgang Headlight Sealant.

    Picked up my 2016 Tacoma today

I have a black RAV4 and it shows every hint of a swirl so I purposely got silver. --The tires will be dressed with Wolgang tire dressing. --I got the entry level double cab, 4 cylinder. I'll add the wheels and other accessories I want...

    Picked up my 2016 Tacoma today

    (This post is not intended to bash dealer detailers or make ready guys, it was the face on the salesman that caught my attention.) I picked up my new Tacoma today. In my conversation with the salesman I mentioned they didn't need to detail my truck because I detailed as an enthusiast. He told me...

    Detailing Menu

    You might consider not mentioning Meguiar's by name. Please don't misunderstand what I'm saying- Meguiar's makes great products, I use 105 & 205, but you might decide, at some time in the future, to try Menzerna or Pinnacle; you might even consider offering sealants or coatings in the future...

    Product Review: Wolfgang Perfekt Vision Glass Polish

    I'll try it. In the past I've used Pinnacle's and liked it but I need a resupply. Is there a product for the inside front window?

    AutoGeek Customer Service

    Every time there's a glitch with someone's order with AutoGeek, they post it on the forum, so I guess I will post mine here also. I ordered a FLEX 3401 with the smaller backing plate to accommodate my 5.5" pads. I was told my package would arrive today, which it did and with it my free gift, a...

    Next Polisher Question

    I've used a PC7242XP since it came out with Lake Country 5.5 inch pads and I get some correction and a nice shine. I would like to buy a step up in polishers and I'm looking at Rupes Big Foot, Griots Boss or Flex 3401. I'm asking for advice because I have a couple of dozen LC 5.5 pads of all...

    Official Discussion: Auto Detail Certification

    I've told people that anyone with a bucket of soap and bottle of wax can say they are a, "detailer" just like anyone with a screw driver and handful of wrenches can call themselves a, "mechanic". I think certification is a good first step and IDA is trying to address that with IDA membership...

    What is Our Responsibility

    I detailed a Mercedes a while back that a husband bought for his wife, she's super excited- the car was bought at auction. As I worked on the car it was very obvious that this car had been in some kind of significant accident(s); the hood didn't line up on the driver's side, poor body work on...
