    Chemical guys - Black Light

    I've heard that a couple times ... But last time I bought something BOGO that was Opt it was at end of shelf life and was an epic fail.

    3401, how much of a time saver in reality?

    Are you speaking from experience or based off something you have read on here?? Because anyone. That does this for a living I would think would not try to hand over a car to a customer after hitting it with a one stepper and a rotary ... Unless you are a hack-detailer If you have done this -...

    3401, how much of a time saver in reality?

    Rotary??? I was going to call you a noob but I see you have nearly 6000 posts so I'm hoping you've done a handful of cars... And if you have you would know that it is impossible to finish holo free with a rotary... I've been detailing for 10+ years and can tell you that while I might be able to...

    Carpet Extractor???

    I have both and I really don't see that much difference... Maybe in lift but for getting water hot quickly I actually do better with the MLII The HP60 is a beast in size!

    Chemical guys - Black Light

    Soooooo BL is a filler as is BH?? Anyone comment on Menz Micro Polish versus either of these... Been using Micro Polish for years and can't seem to find a better light polish than that.... 205 is close but the DAT gives longer working times in hotter weather where as SMAT products get finicky

    3401, how much of a time saver in reality?

    3401 goes way faster and it just has the feel of a rotary ... Would say I saved about 30 minutes per car on a one stepper (151) - 1 Hr vs 1.5hs

    Just picked up a Metallic Silver Sky '12 Tundra that will but into the fleet and while we all know its inpossible to create depth like that on the warmer colors i've decided to go for the glossy - hard as candy reflective look. Might try Opti Seal or UPGP maybe even some V7 ... thoughts from...

    Where to get deionized water

    I can see the benefits for distiller water for rinse less washing ... What about for other WBDs that need to be cut ... Like Megs HD... Is there a benefit? For what it's worth I have never IN THE 15 years of detailing used distiller water for anything and have never ever had a problem.... IJS

    Optimum Hyper Spray Polish (new formula)

    I'm not to sure abt that Mark .... Every polish has a degree of oils that increase working time and do their fare share of filling I saw a buddy use it the other day and for a polish it did have decent cut ... We did a side by side with 205 and the 205 had the same cut but a little glossier...

    Most durable wheel well dressing?

    Opti bond will last a week .. Nothing spectacular I use HD and am fine that I only get about 10 days out of it. I wash my truck 2x a week and on the third wash if it hasn't rained I'll blast the wells with the PW and as it's water based it cleans easily The prob with petro based dressings is u...

    Mytee Lite II Vs. VX-5000 Steamer

    Never used a steamer in all the years of detailing believe it or not ... So pardon the ignorance - but isn't steam to hot hot for carpet fibers?
