Hoping theirs an insurance person or someone who works in the service dept or auto body that can help me with this. So a couple weeks ago I came around a corner and there was a tree in the road... it was foggy and appeared when I was about 20 feet away. I hit the tree and also went over the...

What would be a better replacement for the 105 thats easier to work with for beginners?

So recently I've been thinking hard about taking my part time mobile detailing business to the next level. I wanted input from all you car cleaning gurus on if you would like a business like this in your area. I've discussed it with a lot of my customers and they like the idea. I want to open a...

Hey everyone, I wanted to start a thread to help newer weekend warriors, aspiring business owners and hobbyists to the AGO community get on the right track if they are new to detailing. Let's list products, tools and chemicals and so on that are USER FRIENDLY and can be used by beginners with...

Yeah I love it so far. It just showered real quick. Took some pics and then through a cup of water on the hood where it was all beaded up and everything slid right off I wish it would go more then two days without a quick shower here on the east coast of mass but everyday this month it shows...

I wonder why long the paint coating spray would last in northeast climate.

Used Mckees hydro blue and I've got to say I'm pretty impressed to say the least. I have the spray coating too, but when I washed my car the other day, there was a 10% chance of rain overnight and I didn't know how long the coating had to sit before getting wet so I used hydro blue instead and...

Lol- It's brand a new car. Not used.

Thanks Mike. Would is still be necessary to machine polish the paint? I have checked under direct sunlight st different angles as well as under the great gas station lighting and have not seen any type of swirls or marring. I'm hesitant with machine polishing. I'm not too great at it and don't...

Bought a new car a month ago, threw wax on it the day I got home because I didn't have time to coat it. Now I'm going to have some time coming up. It has Chemical Guys XXX carnuba wax on it now, best way to remove it? I have CG's Clean Slate. Going to be using Mckee 37 paint coating. Thanks

I think you forgot about posting pics.... I'm on the nightshift at my dept as well. It's such a rough adjustment and we don't get take homes :( #smalltownproblems

Oh and I realized I didn't do an IPA wipe down. Could that be adding to the problem? And also left out that I am following up the polishing with chemical guys carnuba wax

Thanks for the reply Paul. I know Chevy has pretty hard paint. But as for the hood since it was repainted im not quite sure.

I sprayed the pad with two squirts of water from a spray bottle and the. 4 pea sized dots of product. Spread with my finger then three more dots on an orange pad.

Afternoon everyone. So back a few weeks ago I polished the hood of my 2013 Impala. Got some spiderwebs out. Not all but some. Today while washing my car i noticed what looked like buffer trails. But I used my porter cable 7424. So I guess the right term would be da haze. My hood was repainted...

From what I have... What product do I use with what pad I have? I'm new to the "paint enhancement" world

Thanks Mike! I defintely missed a step last night. I used the scratch x on the cutting pad around the whole car, buffed off by hand and then applied a glaze by hand, buffed off then used a sealant called Blitz from the CG. What I have in my arsenal for right now are obviously the scratch x, I...

One question I have it how much pressure is enough? I put 4 black lines along the backing plate to see the rotation. Do I put enough to where the lines slow down a bit or where they freely rotate at full speed?
