    cleaning sealant from pads

    Have you tried light agitation with a brush and then either some Snappy clean or the dish soap once more? Warm water sometimes helps as well.

    Are Dealer Ships The Only Way To Really Make Money?

    You would start with the GM of the facility. Some companies will be able to make a decision on the spot for individual depots whereas other companies such as FedEx require upper management consent. FedEx will allow the Express (actual company owned equipment) be washed at their expense...

    want high percent carnuba

    I actually tried the Rubbish Boys Juiced and wouldn't recommend it to anyone. The finish didn't look like anything better than the rest of their line up. The Purple Haze looks so amazing on dark colors that I actually used up a full container in less than 6 months. Not because it didn't last...

    want high percent carnuba

    I was going to mention the Pete's 53. Another favorite of mine would be Chemical Guy's 50/50 Concours carnauba. Limited quantity available each year & one of the only paste waxes that I actually enjoy using.

    Cold weather wax and/or sealer?

    Because of the severity of your region's winter season I would suggest a quality sealant AND THEN the 845 on top. Although it isn't sold here; I suggest JETseal 109 followed by the Collinite 845 for the very best protection.

    Are Dealer Ships The Only Way To Really Make Money?

    You'll want to talk to whomever manages the new car lot or the used car lot. Normally, the used car lot is where you may find more opportunity to make some money. When I first approached a well known Chevrolet dealer I was hoping to be able to pick up their wash services etc. Not only did...

    Are Dealer Ships The Only Way To Really Make Money?

    That's the point of fleet services ........... it's all about volume with minimal overhead. In my case the crew would average 75 + trucks @ $9 per. Not bad with that being the low end of a full weekend. Dealers may let you fill up with their water, but you're going to have to supply your own...

    Clay bar

    Re: Klasse AIO I have used the product over the better part of 5-6 years and never have I seen just the polish alone leave any worthy type of protection. Coupled with the sealant is a whole other story though. Go with your gut feeling on these things and more times than not you'll be glad...

    Are Dealer Ships The Only Way To Really Make Money?

    As of today, I have owned 3 automotive detailing businesses since the age of 17. I am now 42, have worked with business partners and have also incorporated some of the above ideas into the last couple of shops I owned. I did enter into the corporate world for a number of years and retired last...
