    What's the last form of exercise you've done?

    Re: what's the last form of excercise you've done? Is there anything better to strengthen your "core" muscles than intense detailing on a large vehicle?

    This is what a triple coat of Gloss Coat looks like: my wife's 2011 Durango

    Do you think she might let you put a sticker on the rear quarter window? Maybe something like, "This beauty maintained by my main man at Flawless Reflections Auto Detailing."

    How tall are you guys and what is your ideal height for detailing.

    :pc7424:Wouldn't being closer to the ground make it easier to work on the places that probably take the most time anyway?

    What comes after DA polish? Panel wipe? Wash?

    Durogloss 111 does not have any cleaners. DG 105 (and especially 501) has cleaners that may remove any of the "oils" you are concerned about. It sounds like you found a combo that meets your needs. Look good--sell it.

    Quick Review -- Scholl Concepts SW20 Speed Wax

    UPDATE: It has been observed that Scholl Concepts SW30 is now available in Europe. It looks like the upgrade to SW20. I'll order when PBMA stocks it. In the meantime, there's lots of nearly comparable products available, like maybe the new Fusion Spray.

    Enviroshield application

    Don't know about the need to go "chinchilla" but a stout microfiber should be fine. Make sure you prep the paint as best you can and do the "Squeaky Clean" before coating.

    Marketing for Pre-Cold Weather

    If preliminary long-range forecasts are accurate, the U.S. will have a very cold late fall and winter season everywhere but the Southeast. Will you pros contact your customers and offer "Pre-Cold Weather Special Packages?" Something like: To preserve your vehicle's looks and longevity for the...

    Quick Review -- Scholl Concepts SW20 Speed Wax

    It seems marketing for SW20 has been curtailed in the U.S. It may still be available in EU. It may have been replaced with Scholl Concepts NEO. The videos of this product look unbelievable--wet car, spay product on everything, rinse off--car sealed. It appears to be similar to Carpro's new...

    Simple Duragloss question

    It was 1975 - 76ish. But I dunno -- you tell me. Wasn't it in the 80's or 90's DG sponsored a local NASCAR team? [emoji469] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Simple Duragloss question

    As the legend goes... the Bailey Brothers had a couple of sharp, classic mustangs that they showed every now and then. They got tired of the hassle of getting them looking their best with the process of waxing and the mess that went with high end "waxes" at that time. So Dr. Bill, the chemist...

    What is the longest lasting wax?

    If you're looking for "wax" wax, how about products with lots of montan wax? It's pretty hard stuff and if you can get it on and off, it's supposed to hold on to the paint a little longer than the other natural waxes. Other than that, you're probably looking at combo products with natural &...

    Simple Duragloss question

    In my experience.... topping 105 with pure-sealant 111 (after the 105 cures) adds another dimension of "shine" and durability. But so does topping 105 with Fast Clean and Shine detail spray or Aquawax.

    Simple Duragloss question

    Yes....but why :)? I will 501 - 105 - 111, all mixed 4:1 with 601 and let each layer cure for 24 to 48 hrs. But I like the "shiny hiny" look. Of course, regular maintenance with any DG product with Aquawax gets me nearly a year of solid protection. (Ask me about the "down to the bone" DG...

    Do you mostly stick with one product line, or cherrypick from multiple lines?

    I dunno, maybe.. like polymer strands link to like polymer strands? Just guessing.

    Opti seal alternatives

    You know, it's not my usual, but after a couple of weeks of severe thunderstorms, high heat and parking in an industrial dust area, I am really impressed with Scholls Concepts SW20 spray sealant. The rain rinses it off clean and shiny. Why did the Geek torture me with the sample...and now it's...
