    2005 BMW 330i ZHP one step correction

    Ahh right, I forgot to mention my next step was to dress all the plastic trim on the outside, hah. I didn't get around to doing that or the tires as I was doing the car after work last week. Thanks for the compliment!

    My Journey begins here

    The Audi looks great! As for compounding/polishing. I have had much better luck by changing pads often, do a couple panels then get a new one. I can tell when I have used the pad for too long as the product becomes really hard to remove after a section pass. I also use less and less product as...

    2005 BMW 330i ZHP one step correction

    This is my own car, a 2005 BMW 330i with the ZHP performance package. It was in need of some minor swirl removal and leftover rotary holograms from a previous detailer, so I thought I would give it a good one step correction. The defects are really hard to spot in the Orient Blue paint, even...

    Rotary love marks?

    Thanks guys. I just put in a few hours with the M205/white pad tonight, just need to finish up the bumpers and trunk lid tomorrow. It is looking a lot better for sure, I love this paint color! I'll put together a show 'n shine thread once I'm completely done.

    Rotary love marks?

    I am just getting around to doing a good detail on my BMW 330i I bought not too long ago. Today, after giving the car a good wash, I noticed what appears to be rotary buffer swirls on the hood. They are not terrible, but definitely noticeable, I tried to capture some of them below with cell...

    Looks great as always, love that red. I'm hoping to add a Rupes machine to my tool box to take over primary duty from my 7424 in the future.

    How to use a one-step cleaner/wax to maximize profits

    Called For Insurance Quote - Can't Cover Me

    I just wanted to share my experience on this subject. I was able to get an insurance policy through my local (and long time) State Farm agent for my new part time detailing biz. All the typical coverages (business personal property, liability, garage keepers, etc) and much much more. Annual...

    Lesson Learned... Still Not Over It..

    Good point. You get what you pay for, and in that case, top quality workmanship.

    Rupes Detailing Classes at Autogeek!

    Hi Mike, is the Rupes training just going to be a segment in the normal 2 day detailing class, or is there a separate class? I notice on the boot camp website there is no mention of Rupes training or polishers used. Thanks.

    Called For Insurance Quote - Can't Cover Me

    Hmm, this is interesting. How are we supposed to do business, legitimately, without insurance? I just called my agent (State Farm) last Friday as well, to check on coverage. They are supposed to get back to me, but I'm not sure what I will do if they say I cannot get covered.
