    Thougjts and Prayers out to Orlando

    A touchy and possibly a politically charged topic. Regardless, hang in there Orlando. Seems everybody --everywhere-- has to watch their six at all times these days.

    I think he's already figured that out. Hopefully he can work it out amicably with his customer.

    Detailing website and Google

    Google owns YouTube....you'll also get/have better rankings if you have a few videos on your site. Also, don't let your site stay static or stagnant. In other words make some changes or addition every couple of months or so. I forget what it's called or how you do it, But Google has a tool that...

    Just got tired

    I have the "Y" on my outside spigot. Fortunately my spigot is right on the garage wall with the doors. It's in between my 2 doors. From the Y I have a 10 foot hose that goes to the PW. From that I can move the PW enough along with the PW hose/gun/foam lance and have enough length to go around...

    addiction taking over possibly!

    I didn't provide colors of pads because I didn't you would need to use the orange on a new vehicle. But PDQGP certainly has more experience than myself and apparently F150's have hard paint. So his advise certainly sounds good. As far as the quantity of pads. Even if you clean your pads after...

    addiction taking over possibly!

    I'm basically a newb to this. But if I understand the second part of question #2.....you'll need more than one pad per vehicle. If I remember correctly many would recommend at least 6 if not more if you were using compound on the big F150. Since you will only be needing to polish and wax I...

    If there are great AIOs like HD Speed and Mckee's 37 360, why use 2 step anymore?

    You kinda answered your own question though. Some jobs/paints simply require a two step process. Sometimes you just need to be a bit more aggressive. But the current lineup of AIO's seem to be outstanding.

    Good deal OP. I have one of those mutli port faucets I connect at the water spigot. One for the PW and one for a standard hose and nozzle.

    Detailing website and Google

    A web site is certainly not a waste of time. It also isn't the end all be all either, especially for a services entity as opposed to a site that actually sells product and merchandise. It is simply a piece of the puzzle that is a multi part marketing and advertising campaign. I have been...

    Detailing website and Google

    I think you have to basically register the site with the search engines. Setup meta tags and key word searches. I think you can set a dollar amount "not to exceed" when it comes to clicks. Basically you do have to pay to pat to be on the first page.

    Memorial Day Order Question

    For all of my 6 orders up to this point-----the tracking info is usually available by the end of the following business day. So say if I place an order pretty much anytime on a Monday I will get the shipping notification late in the afternoon the following business day. UPS tracking info pops up...

    20% Off & Free Shipping Through Friday June 10th 2016

    My first sentence should have said----I'm INDIFFERENT I guess. Man, I don't mean to stir the pot, but I just don't see the issue here. As I said, I've only been a member for a couple of months and it didn't take very long to figure out the 150 free shipping. I mean it's just always been that...

    20% Off & Free Shipping Through Friday June 10th 2016

    :p :) I'm different I guess. I can kinda see where some would have an issue, but what I bolded above, isn't that a bit of the point from AG marketing side. I don't know, like I said, I figured it out pretty quick and just accepted that the 150 FS limit. Shipping isn't cheap either. I'm sure they...

    20% Off & Free Shipping Through Friday June 10th 2016

    I don't know guys, any---somewhat--length of time on this site you'd notice almost all of there sales have always been the 150 limit for free shipping. I think a couple of weeks back they had free shipping for 50 dollars. But my short time here and the 150 FS seems pretty standard.

    Looking for my first pressure washer

    I'd go gas. I have a gas. For me it's just more versatile.

    What is on my hood?

    Oddly enough I was think something similar, some type of insect eggs. Edit: Maybe neighborhood kids vandalized with some type of flame or heat? How do the bubbles feel? Is there air in them? Are the solid feeling?

    Special prep before bringing car to mechanic?

    Fender padding won't help replacing airbags will it. Most of that work would be in the cabin. I'd be more concerned with the doors and interior.
