OK so I heard right then? Good to know. Now I have to play the waiting game to buy all the stuff, lol.

How well do those^^^ brushes actually work? I wasn't sure how to perceieve them? I am looking for something kind of for interior wipe/brush downs but also something for lug nut cleaning. Does that work well for those applications? (I'd get 2 obviously! haha). Also hope to put a picture soon, I...

Are the flats better than the CCS'? Or is that just another ongoing debate type deal? I have read the CCS soaks up more product so the flat works a little better, aka just as good with a little less product?

This is a good one!! Once I am in the hunt for a house, driveway size and garage size are on my list of must haves!! I'll add a few here even though I'm on the newer side of truly understanding most of this: You know your an autogeek when: ...you tell your mom, dad, two brothers...

Hey all. I figured I would officially introduce myself. I see that there's a good amount of new people on here over the past few days. I live just outside of Philadelphia. Last August I decided to do some details on the side. Found this website at the perfect time with the official car season...

Wow. 60 Semis?? How did/does that happen?? That's gotta be bringing in some good money man! Good luck!!

So here's where I'm at for this: I am going to use the Guzzler waffle weaves for drying. Get a pack of the Cobra supreme's for when I use quick detailer in between washes and the Cobra Miracle towel for wax removal. But what am I using or what is good for Compound removal, polish removal. What...

WOW. That came out AMAZING. Those results are truly night and day, especially the roof! Btw, I love that color. Great work, that extractor really worked wonders for you didn't it?

Wow, this gives me hope for my navy blue Matrix I need to do!! haha. You aren't too far from me. I am in the Abington area and you are actually 10 minutes from one of my work sites. I'd love to stop by and check out how you go about doing things someday!! That car came out awesome by the way...

I'm guessing that means I can use any wax, it doesn't necessarily have to be a wheel glaze?

Do you mean use the Bleche White on the tires and p21s on the wheels?

I was just wondering what you guys suggest as a good/great wheel AND tire cleaner? I have been using Bleche White for years (I'm 24) and some other stuff thrown in. I would like to just dedicate myself to one product that I know will work great on any type of wheel. I will have powdercoated...

So one other thing I thought of this morning. If I was detailing someone's car, but was not compounding. Would the process just simply be Clay, Pre-wax cleaner and then wax?

Awesome, thanks for the help so far guys. Looks like I am starting to figure out my polisher package!!

I'll add onto this by asking: What about Meguiar's #26 wax? I can see that the 845 is at about the same price point. What are the differences between the two? It seems #26 has a ton of positive reviews, as does the 845. I'm still new at this so bear with me. A few weeks ago all I knew was, "Wash...

Would Meguiar's #26 Wax be a decent enough choice? I want to be somewhat cost effecient while giving a good product. It seems to have a ton of positive reviews. Also, it sounds like I won't need the yellow pad too often? The orange will do a good job fo rmost of the defect I guess then? My car...

Hey guys, I have been reading a lot about DA polishers and reading Mike's articles comparing them by hand. From what I have seen, the Porter 7424XP is the best way to go for newbs AKA me haha. I have never used a power polisher before, but I plan to really start detailing on the side and I know...

I guess I'll need to read up on stuff alot more than. I've been so used to using all the over the counter stuff and all the things on here are very new to me. Time to keep studying lol.

I gotcha. The more I was reading on things, the more I started to think that the water blade couldn't be good for the paint. So I guess I am learning. There's so much on here to read up on it makes my head spin! haha. I know you can't learn all this stuff over night. I just want to be able to...

Thanks for the replies so far guys. And I plan on getting the book, and I've also been through that whole section and plan on reading it again and then re-reading it after that haha. To answer Tundra, my hope is basically to be able to give people's cars a good shine. I know I'm not near paint...
