    Portercable: if the pad isn't rotating am I pressing too hard?

    What size pads are you using? I know the kit I bought had the 6.5 and I had the hardest time keeping them spinning on some of the panels. So I went down a size and use 5.5 in pads. Wayyyyy better.

    What Else Do I Need

    Yeah, I guess saying 10x is a figure of speech. I wouldn't think someone would look at that and really think a sealant would last 40 months lol. But it is substantially longer.

    1987 Monte Carlo Extreme Makeover with Rupes and Blackfire BlackICE

    Man, I wish I had $2,000 worth of machines and 6 people to do cars with me every time I did one :p Great results! I see in some of the pictures the roof of the car looks a little hazy. Is that the wax sweating? I had very similar results with the BlackIce. I had to give her a chilled...

    How hot is too hot? (Sun vs Temp)

    You should feel the paint. It's more about direct sunlight than anything. The sun will bake the polish/compound on there. It will flash before you even have time to do a section pass. Then your stuck scrubbing it off. I think if the paint is any hotter than 100' than I wouldn't do it. PoorBoys...

    Meg's MF Correction System

    I absolutely love their system. I use it for everyhing that needs compounding or something a little more aggressive than just a polishing pad. I even use them for my headlight restorations. It really cuts the crud. You will see, after every section the fibers will look matted down, I just take...

    What Else Do I Need

    I personally think for the money and time, there are products that are better than m105/205. They dust so bad I have to spend extra time cleaning up the mess it makes. I love the Menzerna products. No dust and excellent finish. But if that's out of your budget maybe try WolfGangs line. I have...

    Struggling w pricing

    I would say price what your time is worth. There will always be people saying that you are too high. 100$ for a basic wash wax interior is what you would pay at a "express" car wash location. And they take your car through a auto car wash. So 100$ for a mobile wash...I can't imagine that...

    Anyone use LED Work Lights instead of halogen?

    I have read so many comments on the brinkman light battery being junk. And me just ordering one of those I'm super interested in this post. My over head lights in my garage do work (t8 bulbs). But not nearly enough. I have to move around like crazy to locate the spot that I just corrected...

    Hello from Little Rock Ar

    Hello, figured I would post a intro about my self. Started detailing cars when I was 16 as a second job. I guess back then it was just washing, waxing and interior more or less than actually detailing. I joined the USAF when I was 19. Now I'm 21 and started another second job back up, but this...
