Thanks guys I found a article in the search bar that mike wrote up about it. Sounds like silicone is not the issue, but other things cause issues, which normally get blamed on the silicone Good to know!!

Ok so there is a company local to me that sells body shop and detailing supplies. Ive used them in the past for car wash soap and tire shine. They carry alot of different things Anyway, long story short. They have a soap and tire shine that i like, its priced pretty reasonable. Both contain...

great great info again guy. I think what im going to do (in any of them ever ask) is just say i dont mind doing the work, but my materials are not "autozone specials" i use good products and need to be reimbursed some for what i do.... If they say they dont want to pay, thats ok. If they say...

i understand, and thats why i have in the past just turned them down. They are going to go to the local car wash and spend 15ish dollars there, washed like crap, dried like crap, no interior clean At some point they are going to pay some money. I can either do it for them or they can run it...

Thats just my point....you do it for free 1 time, they think its a "ill drop my car off sometime when im in the area, if you could just quick do it" Now we have a issue. Im not rich, im just looking to be compensated for my time and some materials. Everytime i go to the autogeek store is...

yes that seems about right! i dont do full details, just washes, and some vac interiors and a wipe of the dash and door panels Maybe i should charge this hand wash and dry (including spray wax) is $30. (this is thru the foam cannon) add wheel and tire cleaner $5 dollars vac and interior wipe...

thanks for the input. The thing i have trouble with is stuff like gas in the pressure washer. Yes it doesnt take alot of fuel, but it does take some. Same with soap. It doest take much to wash a car or truck, but after a while it adds up I feel like if my labor is free, then i should be...

Im not a professional detailer by any means. I guess you would call me a weekend warrior or garage enthusiast. I like to wash cars. I like to keep them clean and looking nice I get asked alot if i would be willing to clean up cars for family, friends, neighbors etc I usually turn them down, i...

Welcome to the 845 club LOL Ive used $40+ dollar waxes, they dont do any better than collinite 845. I dont care about the basic bottle, no flashy logo. It works, plain and simple

what i usually do is use the pressure washer to blast the junk out and dirt out of there. If it needs to be cleaned i like to use meguires non acid wheel cleaner. Give it a quick spray, let it soak, old microfiber to scrub it, rinse to make it look shiny i just give it a couple sprays of...

i bought meguires non acid wheel cleaner, it works great. I dilute to 2:1 and spray it on a wet wheel for a standard cleaning. I let it sit for a few minutes and use a old microfiber towel to gently scrub any stubborn spots. Dirt and brake dust come right off When im all done i hit my rims with...

D156 for me. I use it after every wash as a drying aid. Great shine, very slick and make water bead very well. The smell is intoxicating, and the price is great for a gallon. Im very happy with it, I cant imagine not using it anymore!

no sorry. What i meant was put it in a bottle with a sprayer. I meant "sprayable" in the sense that it can be sprayed or misted on the tires over putting it on a applicator and wiping it on (like a gel or VRP) Having mud terrain tires on my truck with deep grooves on the side wall, hard to...

this is basically what i have Meguires hyper shine came up more than a few times in this thread, and i was leaning that way also. I have the D156 and non acid wheel cleaner from megs pro line....i should just keep using megs pro line....great stuff. Its settled, ill order some hyper shine...

Well guys its time for me to get another gallon of tire shine. Wondering what you guys suggest for a "sprayable" tire shine. Just so you know, i like to be able to spray it on as i have mud tires on my truck with deep grooves so its hard to apply a product like VRP (which i have) I use a...

ok guys, got a couple questions for you I was detailing a few cars this weekend. Doing the interiors on my wifes car i used chemical guys silk shine....which is great stuff! I love everything about it, but the price Then i did my truck, i used mother VLR. I found that the VLR cleans very well...

Best chemical guys soap that ive used to date is body wash and wax. Its purple, smells like grapes ive tried glossworks and mr. pink. I love CG body wash and wax, its cheaper than the other, foams great and provides alot of protection against scratching during washing Go with it, you wont...

another soap to consider that i feel is very very underrated is chemical guys body wash and wax. It is fantastic stuff....works great thru foam cannon and just a simple 2 bucket wash Its really thick, has a little wax in the soap, lots of suds and it smells amazing Out of all the soaps that...

x2 on the meguires professional line I wash a chemical guys fan...i still like their products...but meguires products are better priced and do just as good or better not to mention you can dilute alot of them, making it last longer Im slowly switching over as my CG products run out..... FYI...

Its a jeep thing, you wouldnt understand Being a jeep freak myself...i really like seeing these pics 17 jeeps is just plain awesome That is one clean XJ for sure!!
