While i may be new i think your are over doing it with your steps. either way please take pics of before and after.

Lol I have just been throwing them in the wash with normal detergent. A 30 pack is only 10$ of 16"x16" microfiber towels and if you keep rotating them they will last.

I'll fix that soon.:xyxthumbs:

Some of the cars i did this past week. i will start taking more in detail but trust me. they are beautiful. :dblthumb2:

Steam Cleaner Kit picking this up after reading this thread with a 20% discount. will this do? Can i use this then use a 3hp vacume to clean the residue? how are you guys doing it? Todays the last day for the 20% off.

it took 5 min. lol and then about 3 min. filing the DBA. ill do it for you if you want. super easy. Go to the tax office in your area. that was $22. then 60 for the DBA

No problem, i did feel bad with all the other legit detailers in the area.

100$. i only did a dba for now. LLC is next. totally worth it, to keep the IRS away

The panel from the junk yard is a great idea. Autozone carrys a wide range of mirror glaze products, i think i might try those out. thank you. i should start taking pics of my work.

1. mostly BMW's, Porshe's and mercades. 2. any color but i have not done a black car yet. 3. customer satisfation, so yes it is. I think i might try the klasse all in one. i just wasent sure if i needed to steep my game up on waxes. basically i didnt know if i was missing out on something.

I started detailing aboiut a month ago and of course i started with the basic's, Turtle wax. For the obvious reasons it was cheap, easy to get a hold of and easy to use. i was doing most of my work by hand using a micro fiber aplicator(now i know it should have been foam) and have got what...
