    This make anyone else cringe.......

    Sounds like some politician from California making those kind of laws. Sorry about that.

    Black Wow - WOW is right!

    Please do a follow up in a few weeks, and please do a comparison soon. This one of the few things I have on my need list since the forever black seems to leave it spotty if you don't cover the area 3x with lots of the liquid in the sponge part that loves to get on the paint. I honestly hate...

    Rookie with a buffer

    If your starting off with a DA as everyone and I agree you should since you'll want one anyway. I would go with the Groits 6inch machine. I just got into it myself not long ago and got the PorterCable xp7424 and wish I had tried the Groits as I wish I had the extra power everyone talks about...

    911 Rust is eating up my car in and out.

    yup if your going to do the inside you will be better off taking out the seats and the carpet as there will be rust you can't see if its where you can see it. Most of us do it to put in sound deadening stuff or upgraded stereo's or the like. Its much easier once you get started and only...

    Looking at the before I will bet a fair bite of correction. You don't get that dirty a car by giving it any care whatsoever. Looks great, nice save!

    911 Rust is eating up my car in and out.

    Wow that blows, if ur on your own I would look tosomeone like macco and do there "uber" one since it will still cost less than a roof paint at a regular place. The good one from them will cover more prep and turn out better. With that many failures of the paint u may be able to slow it down but...

    1999 bmw m3

    Nice, I had a 98 M3 Sedan that was a stick. Amazing what only 240hp can do. I had a detailer back then that was awesome so I don't know anything about how hard it is on the paint side. The leather likes lexol and often to keep it soft. I imagine any of the higher end ones would even work...

    BOGO Question!!!

    Bogo is for 2 weeks so if you can't make that I'm not sure what to tell you. Having said that I will suddenly be wrong LOL. But I know what you mean so much to read and compare its mind numbing Edit: beat me by 5sec dang you

    Yes, Scored an account with the local BMW dealership!

    From a business standpoint I would be happy, if you plan it right with the products suggested you can get it done without to much materials cost. Hopefully your both(dealership and you) aware that for that much money your not expecting concourse level work. It will look MUCH better than before...

    What are these Marks

    I would bet you now see it because you have cleaned up everything else and its all thats left. No idea how to get them off after all you have done so far has not effected them. Depending on your OCD level you either can leave them after blaming them on the Christmas towls(my favorite idea), or...

    1st purchase - missing anything?

    "If you're on a budget, you can step down to one of the other DA polishers and get great results with the polishes you intend to use" I have to agree with Setec, if your just doing your own cars and want to not jump in TOO deep I would vote the Groits 6inch kit with flat pads to start as a base...

    1st purchase - missing anything?

    :iagree: The Flex is the cadillac of DA's so your paying more but getting a preimum unit. The 105/205 combo was more than I personally wanted to try and correct with my just getting into it and being a wee bit scared of the "causing more damage than doing good" as a friend calls it. I think...

    1st purchase - missing anything?

    Depending on your OCD level if its just for your personal cars I would use the towels you have as high quality reusable paper towels. Grab a 3 or 6 pack of the new light blue Super Soft Deluxe Microfiber Towels, microfiber detailing towels, buffing towels, micro fiber towel, detail cloth for...

    Set Pricing vs Hourly Rate

    I have to agree with DLB, unless you do mostly show cars or the exotics then having a flat hourly fee can turn off those just wanting a known price for a specific outcome. Telling someone that a full detail is $300 vs saying 5 hours at $60 and hour is much easier to swallow. My .02bits

    Good vision in a downpour

    I know some don't like the way rain-x does not clear off the windshield to leave is crystal clear sometimes but once the rain starts its like magic.

    Super Soft Deluxe Microfiber Towels with Rolled Edges

    Nice and a nice price, I also like that they are not dark blue like the old ones so I don't have to look at them to know which I have in my hand.

    What Are You Using?

    From all the reading, your doing about what everyone does. I would imagine that the best "solution" is to only use the armor all, I mean cheap wheel shine, only on the parts of the wheel well that you can really see, as its a dirt magnet. As I think we all know the reason we spend good money...

    Sup from Long Island, NY

    Welcome, its a odd 87 here and too warm for me to stand outside in the sun and play with my stuff. Being new to it as well I need more play time than I will get in the full sun today, maybe take out my pop up cover if the wind stops.
