    For stripping.... Dawn or dedicated paint cleaner?

    I was also under the impression that Dawn would strip everything. Definitely not the case, even after 2-3 full dawn washes, there was still sealant to be found. After doing some digging around, a good clay and polish will definitely clean it right up. Thats my plan for spring.

    A few tips on starting a part-time detailing business

    As everyone said, great post Mike. This is quite a game changer for me and will definitely be a bit difficult to change the "Show car mindset" Time to change it up come Spring.

    Insurance - Business owners what do you pay for insurance per year?

    This is interesting to me. How would this compare in Canada? I only ask because automobile insurance in Canada is a joke. When I got my Mustang at 21, I was paying $400/month. A Corolla would have been $380/month...and that was the lowest rate I could find with a clean record..everything else...

    Check out the new animation I had made for my youtube videos

    That looks great man, much better than anything I could do. The only thing I'd say is to change the font up a little bit, it looks a bit too Arial/Generic.. Aside from that, looks really good.

    Wash MF towels before use?

    I always will wash any and every new microfiber product I receive. I often don't place orders for ONLY MF product. Many times I'll order it with polish, compounds, waxes, etc. Couple of reasons as to why I wash: Often enough I'll find littles bits of the cardboard box stuck on to the towels...

    Heavy Zaino user potentially switching over to Duragloss - Clarification please!

    I gotta admit...it's hard to believe how good some of these products are. The low price I'm sure turns people away and the lack of bottle design I'm sure would do the same. That's why I really appreciate these forums + member's feedback with such products. Thanks guys!

    Heavy Zaino user potentially switching over to Duragloss - Clarification please!

    I hear ya, same thing with me. Can't justify some of the high $$$ for the exact same outcome. I'll definitely drop coin on the more expensive compounds and such but when it comes to finishing glazes and waxes, etc. I feel like I have no reason to spend so much to have the same outcome. Hence me...

    Thanks very much for taking the time to type out that response. Much appreciated. I'll definitely give #111 a try, I mean it was only $10 after all. Will need to get into Collinite 845...never touched it. Time to read this

    Heavy Zaino user potentially switching over to Duragloss - Clarification please!

    Haha, I'll still use them come Summer time. But won't be buying anymore come refill time I honestly just can't justify the cost and lack of bigger sizes. Z6 to be hardly of any use until I used Z8... As for Z5 or Z2, I really, really LOVED the finish Zaino gave me. It'll be hard to convince me...

    Heavy Zaino user potentially switching over to Duragloss - Clarification please!

    Me too man, still am.... Another example: 1 Gallon of Zaino Z7 Car Wash - $105.76 1 Gallon of Duragloss Car Wash - $30.50 Prices above include tax and shipping. I found that Duragloss CW is even slicker + generates more suds than the Z7 Car wash. Been washing my cars with Z7 for years now too...

    Heavy Zaino user potentially switching over to Duragloss - Clarification please!

    Thanks man, Good to hear from a fellow Stanger. As per everyone else using Duragloss here Z2 and Z5 will look the same same as DG501. And definitely the price can't be beat...1/4 the price. I also don't only work on my cars, work on quite a few other cars as well so being cost effective is...
