    Danger ?

    I agree somewhat here. I own a plating company and work with every industrial acid and cyanide you can think of. IMO Hydrofluoric acid is one of the WORST acids to get burned with since it is not an apparent burn but will continue to damage tissue and start to eat bone.....not pleasant. I...

    Cleaning leaves and grass out of MF towels?

    Try a dog de-shedding tool. Someone will have to hold the towel while you comb it out but this has worked for me in the past.

    OK, how do I get work?

    I work in a pretty exclusive industry so I don't deal with this type of problem a lot. However getting business is getting business and the best way is word of mouth. Now how do you get that in the detailing world? Well first you have to actually detail someone's car to have them spread the...

    Help me choose

    This seems like a no brainer to me. Go with the Flex. It's awesome. You will have the best of both worlds then. It can easily lay down wax and it can correct paint almost as good as a rotary. Why waste the money on a PC when you know you'll be buying a Flex in the near future anyways? Waste...

    Thinkin of buying a flex

    No, I bought the flex P14-2-150. it only weighs five pounds. I figured since I was a noob to a rotary I would want something with a little more weight thinking it would be easier to control. The weight is not bad and the machine is easy to work with. I think you'd love it especially since...

    How to fix a deliberate deep key scratch

    No, no, no, no. You went about this all wrong. The first thing I would do is get a baseball and track the MF down who did it. Then after a healthy beating I would proceed as you did. Nice job by the way.

    Thinkin of buying a flex

    I bought the same flex a month ago and loved it. You can really get a great amount of correction from it. I loved it so much I thought I'd cut into the old retirement fund again and bought it's rotary brother. After never using a rotary before I can say it is completely different and takes a...

    Baby proof car (keeping it clean)?

    Congratulations! My wife and I had our first child 16 months ago and she's baking another one as we speak. I was worried about my cars too since they are both new and have leather. What you have to do Is get a large burlap sack with some breather holes OR if you love your child like I do you...

    Business name??

    I was thinking the exact same thing. After hours brings to mind cheesy blue and pink neon lights. However you might be able to make a lot of money the hard way! Resurrection detailing sounds like a funeral home to me. thinking of names is very challenging and I would spend a lot of time on it...

    Hey all you frequent waxers I have a "?"

    I've never had a problem putting wax over clean wax. Some waxes are even designed for that such as CG's Butter Wet Wax.

    Best tire shine

    I just detailed my car today and used 303 on the tires. It looks great so far. Not too shiny, almost like a blacker new tire if that makes any sense. Don't know about durability yet.

    Mercedes Benz SLK320 AMG?????

    I actually owned a black 2003 slk 320. I didn't have any mechanical problems but I did have other "issues". The car is sexy and sporty looking but it is anything but. I special ordered mine with a 6 speed thinking I was getting a sports car.....wrong. Trucks would beat me off the one and it was...

    Audi wheel wells

    Holy Crap! Did your customer run over a hay wagon? I now feel much much better about my wells. I used amazing roll-off on the wheel wells last night and scrubbed them as best I could. Then pressure washed them with dawn dish soap.....I'm currently on stage three of a three stage polish hence...

    Audi wheel wells

    Hi gang, I own a 2012 Audi A7 and 2011 Audi Q5. Both of them have some sort of fabric in their wheel wells. I'm pretty sure it's for sound proofing but it collects a lot of dirt. I can clean them out well but they still have a dirty look to them.....not nice and black. I was thinking about...

    Love it: OCW and CG Stripper Scent

    Stripper scent smells like: Dirty one dollar bills Sweat Cheap perfume Sex And a touch of lavender. It makes you yearn for your youth and makes your wife jealous. It does smell good but everyone's right. It doesn't last long enough.

    Admitting you have a problem!

    You think you have a problem.? I quit smoking to detail more. My wife's pregnant and I insist on calling the kid Wolfgang. I might have to open a detiling business just so I can use all the darn products I bought. I still don't know what half my waxes and sealants look like! In all...
