    Cargo Evolution

    We took our time looking at different options for installing this type of equipment inside a cargo van. We settled on the user friendly way of securing the equipment to 3/4 inch plywood, then securing the plywood to the van. This first picture will show how we came up from the bottom with...

    Great find Rasky. I'd have never found that, and it should help a bit with our setup.

    Cargo Evolution

    Hey Emile, Yeah we're gonna be one large blue billboard with logos on the sides, front, and rear. The paint cost $700.00 and the signage will come close, but for that price I couldn't get a billboard off the Interstate for a month. We figure we'll make that money up within the first month in...

    Cargo Evolution

    We're moving up - and into - a cargo van. And since I haven't had much luck finding any information on how folks have gone about outfitting their rigs, I figure I'll post our progress with pictures and details of what we're doing and how we're doing it. This is how our new rig looked the day...

    Couldn't be happier with AG

    We started our business a year and a half ago and used this site for it's wealth of information until November, when we finally signed up and began contributing. Last Saturday we placed our first order from Autogeek for an extractor and a Flex, and received it Wednesday. A quicker delivery...

    Critique my process please

    Hey ColdRunner, I've got no experience with the MG products you're using so I can't speak for them, but you'll want to give the vehicle another wash after you clay it. Good luck with the Porter Cable. They're a lot of fun to work with and return a nice finish.

    the perfect mobile detail vehicle?

    Hey Rousher, We've been in business for a year and a half and have used a Sport Trac with an open 5 x 8 trailer towed behind. While it served its purpose, we've recently bought a GMC 1500 cargo van to take its place. With the truck and trailer we took up more space, and when in a tight...

    Are these straps toggle bolted threw the van floor?

    For all you detailers with cargo vans...

    ...we purchased a GMC 1500 yesterday, which will replace our 5 x 8 open trailer we've used for the first year of business. We're wondering how you laid everything out for best efficiency and - most importantly - how you secured your equipment. We've got a 65 gallon water tank, generator...

    Presidential Detailed: 2004 Chevy Avalanche

    That one shot of the fender with the palm tree reflection would make a great background to a business card. Awesome job!

    Best choice of finishing wax

    Josh, I would assume your Tallahassee/Tampa location means your in college. My wife and I lived in Tampa and went to school in Tally before moving to Knoxville. Spent many a nights at Bullwinkles and B-Dubs...I'm told. :cheers: Good luck with your car!

    What is a glaze?

    After we're done polishing, a slight haze is usually left behind. We use our glaze to remove the haze before sealing the paint.

    Inside or out

    I spent two hours working on the Interior of our truck this morning, and it was pretty clean to start with. Like you say Charles, when it's your vehicle the pride factor plays into it and for our truck - our work truck - it's constantly on display, so we really don't have a choice. The flip...

    I'm a smarter man now! Guess I should have known what an avatar was. I was trying to load it as my profile picture. Thanks for your help!

    Posting pictures

    Thanks for replying. I came across the thread you linked before I posted. I've loaded some photos into Photobucket, and from there I do what has been suggested. When I paste that into "Option 1" for "Custom Profile Picture", it tells me its invalid. Do I need to paste it elsewhere? IMG, do...

    Inside or out

    Well I'm a lucky one 'cause my wife is my business partner and she does the interiors. So our process is: Wheel wells and tires. Top to bottom washThis is the part where she goes inside, and I start claying. But like Charles pointed out, always a good idea to hit the floor mats hard and early...

    PC coming apart

    The manual says to have it lubricated and inspected once a year. They also go on to say send it to them for the work. My current PC is fourteen months old with well over a thousand hours on it, and I haven't done a thing to it.

    Posting pictures

    Either my computer sucks or I need more coffee. I've found a few posts on uploading photos that didn't help me much. I am trying to get myself a profile picture. I've tried it through my computer, and - as suggested on one thread - through Photobucket without any luck. Aside from just a...

    Is there such a thing as Customer Service anymore

    Unfortunately what most businesses are turning to. They repeatedly say they are there for you, 24/7. I wonder what "they" are doing while the computer losses them business.
