    Help with a detailing news story!

    It's best to leave this issue alone. You don't know what products they are using or what terms their customers are agreeing with to have the protection the dealers are providing. Derrick

    I should have turned this down

    You have to know when to hold them, know when to fold them, know when to walk away, and in the famous word of Bubba, know when to, "Run Forest! Run!". All jobs should have a test spot completed BEFORE taking the job, because you do not want to be associated with producing an unsightly finish...

    What to do with waste water?

    Check with your local authorities. Water that is allowed to drain into the public systems usually have to go through an oil interceptor first. Once the oil is separated, the remaining components in the water degrade into nontoxic substances within a day or two. The oil that's collected by the...

    jo pa....fired!

    They waited until He had the most wins in his division to reveal the truth about this perverted program. The whole school board of directors stink. Now the news is reporting a DA that knew about the situation disappeared in 2005(I think that's right). This sounds like the mob. Is this insane or...
