    Custom labels for spray bottles

    This works for me right now. Not as pretty as some of ya'll, but quick and functional. Got a great deal on a Brother P-Touch. I think it depends on how one stores the bottles. Labels on the bottle itself won't help me. But there are some good solutions in this thread. :xyxthumbs: [/URL][/IMG]...

    mculloch 1375 not spraying water? Sputtering...

    I have the 1385 and it works great for what it is. It's normal to spew out some water the first few seconds, then just steam should come out. Are you allowing enough time for it to heat up properly? Is the dial on the handle fully open for full steam? Have you called their customer service?

    Tips for starting Boats & RV's?

    At some point next season I'd like to start working on boats and RV's in addition to cars/trucks. There are a lot of boats and RV's in this area. My Ophthalmologist asked me if I did boats and added that there is a big demand for it. I've done 1 RV and the first thing I learned I need is...

    Optimum Car Wash, My new favorite!!

    Cool. I'll try this one next. Been using 3D Pink soap and like it pretty well. It's only $17 for a gallon, but I seem to use a lot of it. Will try out OCW since you guys like it.

    My 3D/HD plan for my 09 Shelby

    I don't think you have to get Speed. See if Polish works first, if it doesn't try some Adapt. VA Beach is a decent area. That's a NICE 'Stang!

    My 3D/HD plan for my 09 Shelby

    I have Cut, Adapt, Speed, and Polish. I'd try the least aggressive method first. Try Speed with a white pad first.

    New Shop Build

    Dude! That's awesome! CONGRATULATIONS! What is the total length from back wall to garage door? Can you fit big rigs and RV's in there? May want to put in a lockbox where people can drop their vehicles off and just drop the keys in the box. Is there AC as well as heat?

    Meguiar's D156 on a dry or wet car?

    D156 is awesome. I prefer to use it on a dry vehicle. Whether true or not, I feel if you spray it on a wet vehicle a lot of the product will stick on top of the water beads instead of the paint. It will then wipe off with the water. I tried it once wet and didn't like using it that way.

    Taxes- TurboTax or Professional for 1st year?

    All done! Took about 3hrs in total, but I had to go through accounts for expenses and plug in addresses on google maps for mileage. Yep, Turbo Tax Home and Business. Worked great! I've gotten my last 2 yrs refunds very quickly. Hopefully, it will be the same this year.

    OTC Fabric Guard?

    Anyone ever try Scotchguard on top of 303? I ask because I used 303 Fabric Guard on a customers car. She got whiteout on the seat and said it was really hard to get out. Read that Scotchguard repels liquids better but 303 lasts longer and has better stain protection. Perhaps using one on top of...

    Taxes- TurboTax or Professional for 1st year?

    This is my 1st season detailing part time. I've used TurboTax the last few years and really like it. I'm just a sole proprietor right now with basic expenses and profits. I'm still employed full-time with the State. How many of you do taxes yourself vs hiring a pro to do them?
