    First paid detail: 2006 BMW 330i

    Well after seeing what I did on my 2009 Black G8, my wife's co-worker asked if I would do her BMW. Since she asked nicely, and offered to pay I decided I would go for it. My process: Wash with Megs GC Simple Green with Daytona Speed Master brushes on the wheels. Clay with Megs aggressive...

    Detailed: 2009 Pontiac G8

    The Meg's aggressive clay actually worked really well. It got all the contamination off the paint. I wouldn't recommend it unless you planned on some kind of polish though due to the hazing/marring it left behind.

    Just a wash and playing with camera!

    Well yesterday I decided to wash the car and play with my new camera. It is a Canon Rebel T3i so it can do lots of things and I really have no idea. So I am curious if anyone has any tips for using it to its best ability for taking car pictures. With this camera I can build a nice portfolio...

    10 grammar mistakes that make you look stupid

    What about all our "shinny" cars. I didn't know our cars had legs that included shins. That is the mistake on this forum that grates me. Though the common grammar/spelling mistakes get to me as well.

    Daytona Speed Master Brushes and Aerospace 303

    Thank you for carrying these products. A month or so ago I jumped on the VIP special for the wheel brushes and while I was ordering went ahead and ordered some 303. I finally had a chance to use both products after anxiously waiting for a couple of months due to weather and work. But the...

    some detailing questions

    I do wheels, tires first as well. Scrub them and get them clean, then use a tire foam on the tires and wheel wells. Let that settle for a bit, then wash the whole car. Prevents overspray on the paint and helps get a little deeper clean on the wheels and a little shine in the wheel wells...

    8 hours of polishing and...

    My G8 (4 door sedan) took me about 20 hours. SIP, 106, 85RD, Fuzion So if using the DA, it will take a good amount of time if you do it right. Just get some good tunes going, a comfortable stool, and settle in for a long 2 days of work. That is my best advice. It just takes time to do it...

    Poor beading with 2 coats of Fuzion

    I think it was just the pollen. As the fuzion is the layer causing the beading since it is on top of the DGPS. The durability may be affected by not waiting the full 45 minutes, but I am pretty sure it wouldn't stop the beading this soon.
