    1st pc what do i need to make it work!?!?

    If you use it on 10 cars, and charge them $40, that's $400. Minus expenses... You will EASILY clear $350 if not more. That's $1.50 a car for product from XMT 360. You should be able to get 15-20 cars with 16 oz. About an ounce or so per car. Of course, depends on the car, truck, suv, van etc...

    1st pc what do i need to make it work!?!?

    I was in your same shoes.. about $300 including a PC got me started. Didn't take me but a weekend to make it all back. It's possible, trust me. You need essentials, like pads. And get XMT 360 as well. Some soap, drying towel, some good wax, XMT 360, tire dressing, extra MF, vaccuum, and...

    Looking for a an affordable mattress yet comfy

    I have a 3" memory foam topper I bought (sealy brand) and the best money I've spent. Also got some Egyptian cotton sheets (1,000 thread count). They cost a pretty penny, but oh soo soft. :) I have an old Sealy, but it was a premium model 10 years ago.

    OK, Killer, While I have your attention--

    Before you go dry on the rotary or DA? How much product are you using? What speed? How much pressure?

    1st pc what do i need to make it work!?!?

    If you're a fan of saving money.. you will be. ;) If you pick up the EDGE pads, you get this "bit" or attachment, you screw into the head of the PC, and snap on the EDGE pads to the other side. I love their system.. Are you 18 years old, BTW?

    Should be. What other sealants do you have? Best protection might just be some carnuba of any sort.

    New Tire Shine Pads!! + Bonus

    PM me if you want the link. I have used those grey applicators, and have about 20 of them. They're just not big enough and they soak up the product. I am very pleased with these. IMO nothing comes close. These are must haves...

    New Tire Shine Pads!! + Bonus

    I have been having soo much trouble with tire shine pads.. I've used everything from a towel, to a MF, to a MF applicator, to round size pads, and everything in between. THESE pads are from the olden days.. not really, but when I FIRST started out detailing at the local car wash. The "felt"...

    Mobile Detailer

    I was considering a 20x25. A professional one runs about $1,200 or so.

    What bugs you most when detailing?

    Of course, car is garage kept, and we even got some rain today. Out running some errands, and the car got dirty from the rain... so I cleaned it. :awesome: Tomorrow I prep for a few injections on Wednesday morning at 6am, so I will be spending time inside watching baseball.

    What bugs you most when detailing?

    In all honesty, when I go detailing, it's a stress reliever, and a privilege; for me. If I drop a MF, I toss it and get a new one. I don't get upset, nor does it bug me. I have more than enough MF. The ONLY thing that could bug me, is unexpected weather, but I tend to watch the weather like a...

    Pinnacle Advanced Finishing Polish v Menzerna FP II

    Justin is the only one who has expressed his opinion on Pinnacle Advanced Finishing polish. On the contrary, I swear by FPII. It's all a process of finding what works for you..

    Detailing a New Car

    "XMT 360™ is designed for application with a buffer." "XMT Heavy Duty Swirl Remover #4 can be applied with a rotary or D/A polisher." The only product's I WOULD recommend by hand is #1, and XMT Glaze. Nothing else by hand, or you will be there for years trying to break it down.... Sometimes...

    1992 Jeep Cherokee

    Yeah, you probably can add a little more than a quarter.. I don't have very much experience with a rotary, just from what Mike Phillips taught us. I have a lot of reading to do when I can FINALLY get my hands on a Metabo.
