    Foam Cannon: Over it

    I plan to get a gas one. HD has a Homelite 2700 PSI with Honda engine for $279. Costco a Honda engine 3000PSI for $299. I just got a contractor's account at HomeDepot so I will probably get the HD one as I now get a nice discount off their shelf prices. If you PW a car, the foam won't...

    Dash Treatment

    303, but use a sunshade too, or better yet, tint with clear using a quality uv blocking ceramic tint.

    Glass polishing - How to remove scratches in glass

    Agree, and did just that. Used the rayon pads from CP. they are like $5 so why risk the glass? The results were astounding. On that first day it was like there was no glass there. Perfectly perfect.

    Foam Cannon: Over it

    I'm not sure if I am going to get a foam cannon but I am interested in a PW for sure. Building a house and when it is done I will use it for the driveway, house, car, garage floor, patio, shooting upper windows, etc etc etc... I think it would be great for the car to blast off the big pieces -...

    Foam Cannon: Over it

    I was just looking at that Cosco 3000PSI gas powered. Looks like a nice machine. I'd love to have that! Good luck sounds like you didn't mix, and used too dilute a mixture.

    Sparkly

    Sure, I don't mind - what criteria do you want to include? 303 after 2 weeks. Still looks like I just applied it. Not "glossy" but not gray and faded. This was Friday, after applying collinite fleetwax. No, I didn't do the tires with anything, ever...just scrubbed. Wheels were cleaned with...

    Need some help on getting an air compressor set up

    I somehow missed the 1in air tool statement... You can get a small pancake unit and a separate tank. The separate tank can be connected with a standard compressor hose and a few fittings for $5 including a valve. The valve can also be used to disconnect a full separate tank for later use...

    Possible Spring 2014 Chicagoland Detail Day?

    A little unrelated but good for the Chicago crowd to know. I picked up Collinite Fleetwax at West Marine off Roosevelt in Lombard and he said they were out but will be getting some 845 next week - I plan to go back... Only other places are a few marinas on the shore and tough to get to for a...

    Need some help on getting an air compressor set up

    If you're buying an air compressor to just blow out pads, why not save the $400 and just buy some more pads...?

    FREE WAX!? Three pots of SON1C Wax ProtoWax 93 !

    Rats. Figures. Too bad, too, because I'm starting to build a house so if you wanted a good test my car would have been the test of all tests. Being on a construction site with two homes being done immediately next door and breaking ground Tuesday - dirt, grime, sun, grit, smoke-filled air, etc...

    Window Tint Hazards?

    I was just talking to a tint guy in Chicago and he told me he can't do windshields with clear (to block the UV from heating the car but not light). I asked why, he said there are rain channels on the inside of the windshield that make this risky unless it is removed. What rain channels are on...

    3 Inch Foam Pads?

    Well I did find them at AutoDetailingSolutions so I ordered a 6-pack (basically buy 5 and get the 6th free) of 3" CCS LC - 2 orange, 2 black and 2 blue. I figure that should be good for everything I'd need them for.

    Possible Spring 2014 Chicagoland Detail Day?

    I actually, 5 minutes ago, just ordered some Optimum No Rinse. So I have interest. I'm sure I'll use it before May 18th (May17th is my b-day), but you guys will be able to tell me all the things I did wrong haha.
