What product provides long lasting protection and a great shine all while being easy to apply/remove and won't stain trim? Is Collinite 845 the only option?

Well, I went with this short style wand since I came with a 1/4" QD fitting already installed - http://www.amazon.com/DUSICHIN-DUS-220-Pressure-Washer-Nozzles/dp/B0157U65MO?ie=UTF8&psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00 It has an M22 fitting to connect to the M22 hose. It will not...

Thanks for the reply. There are numerous fittings/adapters available that I'm overwhelmed about which is the correct option to get the results I'm looking for. Also, I remember reading that the SPX3000 uses European threads, so most fittings/adapters won't work? Hoping someone can link me to...

I have a Sun Joe SPX3000 electric pressure washer. I would like to convert the wand that came with the unit one that is shorter for easier maneuverability. More of a "machine gun" style as opposed to a "rifle" style. However, I don't want to lose the ability to use the wand as intended (the...

The Dusichin SFL-001 foam cannon has caught my eye, as well. It is less than half the price of MTM Hydro offerings. I wonder how the Dusichin will perform/last over time?

Excellent work! Very impressive!

I just felt like sharing a few tools that I find invaluable use when it comes to detailing the interior of a vehicle. I am not a professional by any means. I am a hobbyist and do a few family/friends vehicles. Feel free to add the tools you find to be extremely helpful when detailing interiors...

Perfect timing for this thread to pop up. I've been thinking about an electric pressure washer. What would a solid choice be for the hobbyist/weekend detailer?

Thanks for the reply. I was thinking of trying WD-40 as the next step. Few things I have on hand: - WD-40 - Simple Green - Brake Cleaner - Acetone - Meg's Quik Detailer - Mother's California Gold Instant Detailer - Meg's Scratch X

Slightly off topic... I just got the Harbor Freight 5 drawer tool cart today. There is a sticker showing that the drawers have a locking feature. I removed the sticker and it left residue. I first tried "Goo Gone" with no luck. It actually removed some of the finish...very little finish was on...

For the long time users of DG Aqua Wax, what is your preferred method when using the product to get the best protection and shine? I have read that some like to apply when drying the vehicle while others prefer applying to an already dried vehicle. I'm about to pick up some Aqua Wax in the...

I have taken on the responsibility of caring for two family members' cars in addition to my own. All cars are daily drivers and see all sorts of weather conditions and road conditions. They are not show cars whatsoever, but I would like to protect them and keep them looking as new as possible...

Re: Mike Phillips - Vehicle Inspection Form - Version 2 I am interested in a copy. Thanks Mike!

On some vehicles, the window pillar post is a matte plastic material. What is the proper way to detail this area? I assume polish and wax is a no no. My plan is to wash with a car shampoo with the rest of the car and dry normally. What options are there? Here are pictures for reference.

Thank you all for the responses so far. Do you recommend I do a basic exterior and a basic interior and then a full exterior and ful interior? Charge accordingly obviously.

I'm looking for a new polish and a new wax. Right now, I have been using Meg's Color X as my polish and Meg's NXT Liquid as my wax. Both have served me well, but since being on AG I would like to try something new. What is a polish that gives a nice shine, can correct some...

Some type of All Purpose Cleaner (APC) with proper dilution will help clean up the remaining dirt/grime. There are many APC choices out there. They all seem to work well, so it's personal preference. Meguiar's APC seems to be popular on here and is priced well. Follow up with some type of...

Hey guys, I'm a hobbyist looking to make some money detailing on the side. I have a 9-5 40+ hour per week job, so this is something I will do for fun on the weekends. Knowing what you know now and putting yourself in my shoes, how would you construct simple and clear price options for your...

Awesome work! I'm about to give Folex a try on a stained interior. I will be sure to post pics of the results in another thread.

Thank you for the Harbor Freight DA suggestion. I will definitely look into it seeing how it will give me great results in less time.
