If it were me I would start with a finer grit. I would start with 800 or 1000 and see if you can get the spots to come out. If not then move to 600 if they doesn't work then go to the 400. It may seem like your wasting your time at first but it will save you a lot of time polishing. Plus you...

I use their products as well. I am very happy with the service the car brite rep comes to town every other week which is really nice if you have a shop As far the products go I can't complain about them. Some of the dressings do feel a little greasy or sticky at times but its not bad enough to...

Instead of drying with the microfiber towels does anyone use a water blade? It makes drying so much faster. Sometimes I still have to go back over a few spots with a Microfiber but that's no big deal

I have done one and it went just fine I never said I did 12 of them. What is the story with the get MAD detailing? What is wrong with how they operate? Really its pretty smart. Building the reputation as the best local detailing takes time. Plus working with them helps do that. You are...

Has anyone used any of these spray products? I'm curious on how well they really work

I have no idea where they are located at, Why don't you just answer the phone and find out? I mean if your running a business you should always answer your phone when it rings even if its out of state. I have many clients that used to live out of state and moved here and kept their numbers. If...

You have to provide your own insurance and everything else needed, there simply doing your scheduling for you

So far I have only found one product that is a sealant that's body shop safe is the Optimum GPS spray sealant.

I planned always keeping some quick detailer close by to wipe down a panel before buffing if it looks like any dust is on it. I have several finishing polishes I'm just trying to find a good sealant that I can use. I have one that is meant for fresh paint which I plan on using I also would...

Ok I will look into them Thank you. I just want to have a few different options to try What products did you use while you were there? Thanks Yes it can get dusty in there but its really not all that bad. If needed it cleans up easily

I'm sure just using a regular wax would be fine and not cause any problems but I really don't want to take the risk. There has to be some good body shop safe sealants out there. I know they make some for fresh paint so I would think there would be a few other options out there

I've done a little research but still haven't found what i'm looking for yet. I need to figure out what I'm going to do about paint protection. On the new panels I will just use a paint sealant meant for new paint but what should I do on the rest of the car? Thanks

I did some research and found some dressing that are body shop safe. I do need to figure out something for a wax though. I'm not sure what I'm going to do about that yet. Yes the dust gets everywhere but the cars I'm going to be working on will only be in there for a few hours it takes a day...

So I recently got a chance to basically start running my detailing business out of a body shop. Now I have to change up my products for obvious reason I can only use body shop safe products. Does anyone else work in a body shop? If so what products are you using? I know all of my...

I went ahead and signed up for it. It doesn't cost me any money. For me right now the more details the better. I would much rather be able to talk to the customers directly before hand to do the scheduling and making appointments to avoid any miscommunication. But i'm willing to give it a try...

I agree I don't like the idea of having a middle man. I like to be able to talk to the customers to make the appointments and help them choose the best package. But then again another detail is another detail I'm not desperate for work by any means but it is slow right now but thats executed...

Has anyone ever done work through national detail pros? I got a phone call from them the other day. Basically they schedule appointments and keep a small percentage of the cost then I would go do the actual detail. Has anyone ever worked for this company or similar ones?

I use several depending on what condition the paint is it. 3m is about the best compounds you can buy but you will pay for it. I have the super duty(05954), Finesse-it II (05928) and the Machine polish (05996) between them 3 you can take out just about any defects that don't require sanding and...
