    What would you do?

    That polisher lists 7.5 amp draw. As long as the extension cord is 50ft or less you should be good with 16ga. If your extension cord is 18ga., you may be headed for problems. In any case, periodically check the cords and connections for heat. A badly worn cord with weak connections will act...

    What is the best Microfiber wash?

    Washing machines limit contact time with soap to a very short period. Pre-soaking is your best friend in this process. It will get out all sorts of grime that would normally remain. If it's oily residues, include degreaser in your pre-soak. How did they turn out? We are a results driven...

    Cigarette Outlet (12v) to Power Outlet (110v)

    Cigarette Outlet (12v) to Power Outlet (110v)

    Power inverters do not play well with motors running near the inverters capacity. Motors have a significant startup surge that goes well beyond their running current. Serious power converters with a larger capacity like the ones used in industrial applications and some travel trailers may handle...

    Acrylic detaling

    It is a plastic and can be wet-sanded and/or polished. Be careful and avoid overheating it, warps and installed thermal stress can lead to cracks and failure. If the scratches are very deap, might be time for a new aquarium. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N910A using Autogeekonline mobile app

    Has anyone ever heard of this?!?

    I've been using WD40 in the same manner on leather work gloves for decades, keeps them soft and pliable. I would never consider doing it to upholstery. Would be concerned about color change and degradation of thin, fine leather from VOCs.

    What is the best Microfiber wash?

    Any detergeant that does not have fabric softener and dry on low heat. Try to get the wife to run a load through the washer & dryer without softener just prior to running your load of MF to clean up the machines a bit. Poorboy's, 3D, CG, even Woolite. Take your pick. Pre-soak in a bucket of...

    Water based paint on interior carpet

    If it is wet and kept wet, you have a chance with a Tornador, extractor, soap and water. If allowed to dry it may be unrecoverable. Depending on color/chemical makeup, it may be unrecoverable already. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N910A using Autogeekonline mobile app

    MB C63 AMG saved from the dealership @KS Detailing, Long Island, NY

    Absolutely gorgeous! Did you take the car back to the offending dealership to educate them on how a car should look? And perhaps even offer to train their staff on how to avoid causing such damage? For a small fee, of course... Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N910A using Autogeekonline mobile app

    How to convince a wife who has NO concept of the addiction that I need more stuff?

    I've been married to the same malevolent demon since 1980. Math is like years in a dog's life, so.. 259 years and no parole in sight. Marriage is a labyrinth of problems. Detailing addictions are among the minor problems and are easily overlooked when faced with a bigger problem. If you are...

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

    Re: what's the last form of excercise you've done? This morning. I exercised a malevolent demon from the evil entity I woke up next to. It required the liberal application of half-a-pot of coffee.

    How to convince a wife who has NO concept of the addiction that I need more stuff?

    Separate accounts eliminate much of the arguments over finances. Once you have a few polishers and a bunch of detailing supplies, it leaves the realm of quantity and enters the description of "all that car stuff". Now numbers no longer matter and you can stack another shelf full every week and...

    First post from Deepinahearta, TX. I've been lurking for a while now, updating knowledge. I've painted cars in the 80s & 90s and put in my time on rotary polishers with big, fluffy wool bonnets. I am not a newbie, amatuer nor a novice; I am not a pro, either. Looking into taking up a side gig in...
