    Optimum Spray wax with UV(Is it that good)

    Optimum Spray wax with UV(Is it that good) I'm completely shocked that a spray wax can achieve a great shine like this opti wax. I would have argued that paste wax and buffer are the only way to go. 1 5mins or less to apply to a midsize car. WOW!!!! Who else has found this wax to be that...

    Is the real money in lower end detailing??

    This is a great topic for discussion. In my opinion, you can divide the detailing business into 3 types. (1) Low end details.. IE wash, wax with no correction (2) Midrage detailers providing wash, maybe a polish or one steps IE.. xmt360 or optimum Poly seal, etc .... (3) the multi step...

    Pads for Flex questions...

    Before you determine what type of pads you will need, consider diagnosing the state of your paint. Wash a panel, clay it, and see what it really looks like. If you have slight swirls or lines, then you can begin less aggressive in your pad selection with a good polish. Now in my opinion, there...

    What pressure washer do you guys like?

    I use a gas 2600 PSI washer with a Honda engine. If I had it to do over, I'd have gone electric. The gas ones require some much maintenance.

    Bmw z4

    Good job.. Sometimes, it's nice just seeing a car cleaned up and waxed without hrs and hrs of work. The longer I detail, the more I'm in tune with my customer wants. Most of them could care less that I'm 2-3 stepping the vehicle or applying a glaze before the final wax to make it pop. I think...
