    How many buffer pads does a new business need?

    I don't know if you're using a super-elite brand of sarcasm to inject a little humor in here that I'm just not catching... but nowhere in this thread have I or TundraPower said anything about using Menzerna products for production detailing. Yes, Menzerna products were featured in a photo...

    Thanks guys! Looking forward to getting my before / after portfolio up... Thought my back ordered waterless wash was going to be here by now. Still waiting! I was originally set on the CG products but I couldn't easily differentiate between the various products. The Menzerna product selection...

    The pricing on the link you supplied correspond to the numbers I've seen around this area as well.

    How many buffer pads does a new business need?

    I'm with you 100% on that sentiment. That applies to just about every industry you can name. Restaurants, home builders, vending machine operators, photographers, etc... most of those people have no business being in business. But... I'm not that guy. I'm kind of a maniacal crazy when it...

    How many buffer pads does a new business need?

    These products are not for production detailing. The only product I've ordered so far for that was Eco Touch Waterless 1gal, and the Griot's Garage Vinyl & Rubber Dressing. I'll likely pick up some sort of detailer spray for paint protection. The Griot's Garage Interior Cleaner will be...

    Sorry it's taken me a while to get back to you. I might have alerts turned off. Anyway, I'll have to get back to you in regards to the pads. I picked up 13 Lake Country pads to experiment with that should hold me over for the next couple weeks while I figure out my processes... I'm trying to...

    George Zimmerman rescues victims from burning car

    Anyone can pick up a police scanner and be a "hero". This all seems a little too convenient, given his trial just ended... and he's currently the social equivalent of a skid mark. I guarantee he did not just happen upon this accident. The police were called, and it was from that public...

    How many buffer pads does a new business need?

    Picked up an unused Flex 3401 from a user on this forum today in SF. I don't have a process yet as I haven't detailed my first car yet. I'm in the "acquiring gear" phase of the business plan at the moment. @VP Mark I'm basing my business plan on a $50 / hour rate. A $25 Wash & Wax should...

    Thanks! Glad to be here. Makita 9227, the CX3 kit... with a 7" backing plate. I suppose I need a selection of smaller backing plates, too.

    How many buffer pads does a new business need?

    First post... great forum. Lots of great knowledge being shared. What's a good selection of buffer pads to have on hand when starting a new biz focused (initially) on production detailing? Aiming for about 3 cars per day taking about an hour per vehicle until I feel comfortable with...
