this series of pads sure has a lot of choices. Sounds like I need the orange AND green based on the conditions I have? also, what is the difference with their various finishing pads? thanks

Thank you. I use freebies to scratch my detailing itch! Only can do it a few times a year as these details kick my butt. Don't know how you guys keep this up on a professional level!

thanks. Since they already had I figured I had nothing to lose. We'll see how it holds up in the hot AZ summer!

Since I love to detail as a hobby and also as stress relief from running a business, I occasionally will clean up and detail a family or friend’s car. I only do a few of these a year and these are done for free and only as a gift to people who appreciate what goes into my details. For those of...

I'll look into these. Not real familiar with their pads yet. I have a white one that I bought and haven't tried yet. sounds pretty good based on your comment Yes, in general I do like denser pads that don't soak up a lot of product. The buff and shine look interesting. I use that brand for my...

I need to stock up on small pads and could use some advice. I have re-tasked by GG6 to be my official small pad machine. I'm an enthusiast detailer with about 8 years experience so have good working knowledge of equipment, product and pads. I had been using 4 inch pads but now it looks like the...

thanks for that tip. It's on my list!

Re: paul_g news Welcome to AZ, Paul!

Which one are you getting? The coupler to my gun rotates a little but nearly as well as I would like.

EvolutionDetail - I had the same scenario a few months ago. I had someone do a budget respray on certain panels so in addition to the hazing from their buffer I had some orange peel. I wanted to do some correction but also wanted protection. Used M100 with denim pads, M205 to clean it up and...

Dtcjem - I have the exact same PW. I swapped out the hose and got a 50' hose. Also, put quick-connects on the hose-unit and hose-gun. YOu could do the same with another shorter gun as well. Additionally, I cut a short piece of garden hose for the water hookup and put the quick-connect on the...

do you feel the same way about the clay mitts?

yep- just down the road in Scottsdale. Hope all goes smoothly on your move to Chandler.

Hey Scottie - welcome to AGO. Congrats on starting your detailing business. Where in Phx are you located?

I offered up a bunch of these last year on the forum when I was thinning my stash and couldn't get any takers. It's not that they didn't work, it's that I tried out some LC purple thin foam wool and got extreme cut with better finish.But there are so many combo's to try and it sounds like you...

That's good to know about these gloves. Big issue ( for me, anyway ) in the summer here in AZ.

Yes, but for some reason I never thought of folding the towel again. If not really dirty I try to get two passes per side - one on the front edge and one on the back part, but it can be clumsy to do. That's why I love these forums - I get to implement great ideas from people who detail on a...

thanks for the great tip. This will allow me a few more passes from the same towel.

It's easier to use in hot climates as you don't have to worry about water or soap drying on the car before you get to it. ( think 115 degree dry hot summer temps ) Additionally, if you only have short bursts of time to clean the car you can do it in stages. It once took me 5 trips to the garage...

Thanks for the offer. Hey, I bought some CarPro Denim pads to knock down the orange peel on some resprayed panels. If you ever need to borrow just let me know. they are pretty amazing for the proper situation. Also still have a half gallon of OCW if you every want to swing by for a refill!
