    1972 Challenger - Foam Pads - Meguiar's Microfiber Compound & Polish/Wax - Single Stage Black Paint

    That's a beautiful car and one of my favorite colors. You did an amazing job. I'm going to start saving all these great pics I see on the forum into a folder to make a nice screensaver.... Detailing has really taught me to appreciate the auto as an art-form. I love watching the mecum auctions...

    Just when you think the Ferrari 458 couldn't get any better..

    That looks awesome! Now if only I had the money and looked like Brad Pitt, then I could pull off the convertible.

    Why do you detail?

    I sit in an office all day and its great exercise. But since I bought my first car at 16 I have been detailing. I also enjoy it. But inevitably my car gets scratched, keyed, one car got literally hit by a huge truck tire on the hood when the car in front of me hit it. I get rock chips too. Its...

    Big and Yellow

    Looks great! One just like that parks next to me in the parking garage. Yellow too! Always think it would be a pita to detail. The windows are so tiny... theres a lot of painted surface area to deal with there.

    Durable wax

    I got some wolfgang 3.0 sealant in my stainless steel sink when I cleaned my pads. It pushed water off the sink for about a week despite being bombarded daily with dawn and harsh foods. I kept turning on the water just to watch it spread away from the sealed patch as soon as I turned the water...

    Customer saying we damgd car -- opinion please

    That is a great idea! Talk to the GM. See if he saw the damage and see how he feels about the guy. Refuse to pay and tell him you did not do it, he is a liar, and he cannot prove that you caused the damage and he reported it a week after so legally he cannot prove that you did it and it was not...

    Best sealant that DOESN'T attract dust?

    FWIW I've noticed the same thing. When I buffed it off some of the plastic body sections of my car, you could feel the static electricity being generated on the surface. I get a little layer of black dust/dirt every couple days that builds up. I just use the wolfgang spray every few days to wipe...

    help removing tarnish from metal spare tire cover

    I have some nasty stains on my spare tire cover where the metal is. I think it is chrome? I am using some Mothers metal polish and it seems to be working... slow progress though. Am I on the right track here or is there a better product I should use? I tried to take pics but as you can tell they...

    My better half always complaining: you dont take care of my car like you do your car

    Sounds like a perfect marriage! Sorry for being sexist! I never considered that a wife might be in such a situation.

    My better half always complaining: you dont take care of my car like you do your car

    Sorry to hear about that. Get well soon and try to take it easy with the pain meds especially oxys. Those damn things are so addictive.

    My better half always complaining: you dont take care of my car like you do your car

    The wife's car is black... ugh. It has swirl marks and lots of rock chips and dings. When she stops working, I'm going to have all the dings fixed and have it polished... but that won't be for a few years. I was actually looking at your page yesterday for an idea of prices since you are in my...

    Random Travel Conversations

    I have two funny stories: At a gas station: this huge guy that apparently works there runs up behind my little wife and she thinks she is gonna get car jacked and then he starts spraying crap on the car without asking while talking about a free demo. She told him to get the hell away from her...

    My better half always complaining: you dont take care of my car like you do your car

    Well Im tired of hearing my wife complain that my car is detailed and hers is not. She took my car today to work so of course I had to offer several warnings about: resisting the urge to raise the seat position to gaze at the amazing reflections in the hood, which can result in an accident...

    An interesting call...

    Ugh! It looks so greasy and nasty. Much prefer a clean look. Well at least you tried to enlighten her.

    after a bird bomb

    I like sealant so much better. I just switched to wolfgang 3.0 and it seems to last way longer and seems to be more durable. Just redo the panel that was bombed. It shouldnt take too long. My car was bombed last week and it came off the wolfgang with just a spritz and a wipe but it wasnt on...

    Grandmas carwash nightmare

    If someone does not speak English, and they do not know what they are doing, you cannot instruct them unless you speak their language. The poster clearly did not speak this person's language, so they could not educate them on what they were doing wrong. That is the point being made. Nice try though.

    clay after or during wash?

    Water and left-over detergents aren't the best for clay bars, also drying it means you won't have to worry about claying off all the water spots, and I think drying will help to get any remaining soap or debris off. But, if you are in a hurry, I don't see anything terribly wrong with claying...
