Hi John...quick question for you...you mentioned the McCoullah streamer you purchased for around $100 ..I found one online...is yours the 1275 model? Gray and yellow in color?

Crap..I meant IPA..not ISP....may the detailing gods have mercy on me

I have read alot in the forum about using ISP for final wipedown. My question is..and correct me if I have this wrong, but ISP is alcholol and water mix...But will that not dry out the paint, or strip the wax that I just put on ? Thanks

I've had a few bikes over the yrs. myself..Have always wanted a "65 panhead

Yea your righ TL !! Nice shovel head ya got there

Thanks alot guys..It was sad to see the neglect my buddy put his truck through. Needless to say, it sat out in the sun 24/7 and he never waxed it. Living in South Louisiana doesnt help much either. Thanks for the tips on downloading the tips Mike. Nice H-D truck you have there...

Yea...I think someone in here classified it as having OCD..obcessive compulive detailing order LMAO

So, I guess I need ask before any work..exactly what they want..whether it be just a detail that day, or paint correction, and inform them up front if they want both services, that It will take two separate appts..

Also..what kind of general guidline should I use when just doing polishing. Should I charge a flat hrly. rate..or by what type , size and condition of vehicle?

Yes..been using the 7424, but just purchased the flex3401 last week. Will get to test it out Thurs..
