    Collinite longevity? Can 915 really last longer than 845?

    I know that's not a perfect review of longevity, but it has been over a month since my dad did spray wax app. And I know griots spray doesn't last that long. I didn't feel 915 was any harder to remove actually. I think using the tin is easier than bottle. Since I often have to warm the bottle...

    Why you don’t need a website or business shirts when you’re starting off

    I ask all of my new customers (ones not sent from customer referral) how they found me, and the majority say they found my website, and it looked very professional. The rest have either found my business cards or seen me working mobile and took the info off my truck. The time I've put into it...

    Carpet/Upholstery

    If you think you can "blitz a freaking carpet" and not feel bad about charging what you do, you must be charging next to nothing, since blitzing a vehicle with an extractor is not going to accomplish anything except soaking carpet and upholstery. This leads to odors and wicking problems...

    Carpet/Upholstery

    Encapsulation cleaners are detergent polymers that emulsify soil and suspends it away from the fibers of carpet /fabric. The polymers encapsulate or kind of create a shield around the soil and fiber so dirt cannot reattach itself to the fiber. For lighter to moderate soiling you just let it dry...
