Never tried ONR, but Meguiar’s discontinued D114 was an eye opener for me for all the same reasons you listed.

I’ll try again:) I would say my favorite/best/most used interior product is Meguiar’s Quik interior detailer. Easy to use, versatile, and gives me the perfect finish on dashes and interior plastics. Only complaint is when buying in gallons the smell isn’t the greatest.

Edited: Whoops, didn’t read thread throughly. I’d say pads are in the tools/mechanical category: 3M foam pads circa late 90’s-2000’s When I was first learning to use my Dewalt rotary I was advised to stay away from wool pads and go with foam. 3M Perfect-It pads, compounds, and polishes...

Very nice as usual. That Explorer is guaranteed to make people slam on their brakes with that paint scheme:)

This is awesome. You will do great at spreading your detailing knowledge. My biggest piece of advice for dealership detailers is to work clean. Aaryn, Mike is offline till next week. I’m sure he’d be reading this thread otherwise. Link to Mike’s thread...

Beautiful car and great work by the Surgeon of Stuttgart! Are those wheels period correct? They look good on the car, they look like they could be on a new Porsche.

Nice detailing on the VW. You do a great job with your videos as well. Get that steering wheel aligned properly:) just nit picking a very well made video.

Watched this video a few weeks ago along with your personal Honda Odyssey detail. I think you have it figured out. Great work, your videos are well produced, and enjoyable to watch. I especially like the reaction of the customer. Being a landscaping work van, he needs a large rubber mat that...

I like HD Speed’s cleaning, light polishing and possible filling ability when used by hand. I used microfiber applicators. Any good carnauba wax or sealant should help hide swirls to some extent. One product that I’ve heard good reviews about, but never tried is Poorboy’s black hole glaze.

Quik interior detailer keeps the interior looking factory new. D149 is one of my favorite products from Meguiar’s.

That is a nice simple bottle/label design. You can tell Collinite isn’t trying to wow you with fancy packaging.

Let me fix your thread title:) Noobie detailer, help me pick polishes. I’ve never been disappointed with Menzerna polishes. However I’ve never relied on one polish, unless using an AIO. I would recommend buying a Menzerna compound, medium polish, and finishing polish. Also, look at any of...

What a cool car! Excellent work and there is never too many photos:) Always something unique coming into your shop, keep on sharing.

I would say maybe an IPA solution and q-tips. Sounds tedious. Another thing that might work would be using an IPA or similar product and a thicker nap MF towel. The thicker nap would hopefully get into the chips and remove the compound residue. Issue with using a towel is you work risk...

Great write-up and awesome detailing as usual. Those wheels have a neat look, like the offset spokes.

One of, if not the single best 50/50 I’ve seen on AGO. Way to go! Cannot say I’ve ever seen a vehicle being showcased on AGO with dog boxes:) I’d have love to see the customer’s reaction when they first saw those results. Excellent work!

Great looking update. Amazing how much more vibrant the grill crest looks. Love the C-pillar wreath and crests. The plastic badges only last so long. Looks like yours got to the age where they needed replacement

I’ve been happy with my Dewalt rotary for the last 20 years. Definitely is a quality tool. ~$200 Milwaukee makes a cordless rotary that would be worth looking at. Cannot go wrong with any of the quality rotaries sold here. If I was polishing for a living I’d probably go with the Flex rotary...

Awesome work! I love the design of the XC60, the styling is perfect everywhere you look. That glossy paint helps:)
