    Water Supply

    route66detail, Just going to throw this in as well... In my experience, a lot of camp-grounds strictly prohibit water use for exterior washing of RVs, trailers, cars, etc. I doubt that camp-grounds will be a primary source of clients but I just wanted to put it out there.

    Website Critique.

    I viewed the site and it seems like you have a very good starting point. On a good note, the site seems to have pretty good organization, it's clean, and it's not too boring. You've thrown in a few extra colors but not too many. Overall, I like it. On the not so good note, I'd double check...

    Product Questions From A Newb

    I do like the Meg's line. So far it seems to be one of the better values and I don't have to order everything since some can be purchased locally. However, I didn't know that D114 could be used for some much so I will definitely add that to my wishlist. I finally found the specs for the...

    What's your Day Job?

    Currently a mechanic for an LTL freight company. Hoping to go to school one day. Seven years in the Army, a couple as a mechanic, and I still don't know what I want to be when I grow up.

    Product Questions From A Newb

    Thank you for the input, although I was hoping to get a few more replies. 1. I actually meant coating, not sealant. Oops. 2. Exactly what I was thinking. 3. I have learned that one, but I have also seen some that are very expensive. Just hoping nobody would suggest something like...

    New website

    I think you have a decent starting point for a website. (Viewed on Dell Latitude ATG D630 running Ubuntu 14.04 LTS with FireFox 38.) There are some things that I, personally, would alter. The items in the list are in no particular order. 1. It was very difficult for me to read through the...

    Product Questions From A Newb

    Too make things shorter I'm summarizing. I have hand polished one truck a few years ago and it wasn't perfect but it was much better than it was. Anyway, on to the point. Just to get it out of the way, I plan on purchasing Mike's book soon so any references to pages, etc. will be checked...

    Routine engine cleaning.

    Keep in mind my opinions are coming from a very inexperienced amateur. However, the wheel brush I purchased worked pretty great. I feel that the EZ-Detail would work a whole lot better with it's flexibility and not having to worry about shorting something out or scratching something since it...

    Routine engine cleaning.

    Engine Detailing, car engine cleaning, engine cleaner, engine detailing how to, how to clean an engine, I don't use the EZ-Detail Brush, I use a much cheaper wheel brush with a metal core. Figured I'd see how I liked it first before I spent more on a better brush (plus, I wanted one I could...

    Wolfgang Exterior Trim Sealant

    I figured that I would follow up with some pictures but, I'm definitely not a photographer. Plus, lighting was horrid and you can't see much. Let's just say that there was a slight difference after cleaning with the Mother's and a major difference after the Wolfgang was applied. I was shocked...

    Wolfgang Exterior Trim Sealant

    That's what I'm aiming for. However, I know that some cleaners leave a residue that can affect product adhesion (at least for adhesives) and am trying to find the best way to prevent that.

    3 miles on the odometer and the paint is contaminated

    I figured it'd be the trains. You'd get more carbon if anything over the road. I don't know much about trains though, I work truck freight, not rails. Every time I've seen them they seem to have less covers when loaded on the trains too and it's a mostly open box. (I see them quite a bit...

    Wolfgang Exterior Trim Sealant

    Thanks for the input. I think I'll swing by the store sometime and pick up a bottle of the Mother's, still have a couple of days until the Wolfgang arrives.

    Wolfgang Exterior Trim Sealant

    I am anxiously waiting on my order of Wolfgang Exterior Trim Sealant to arrive but I have one minor problem that I should have addressed before I even placed the order. What would be the best way and/or product to clean the area prior to application of the sealant? I checked the description on...

    3 miles on the odometer and the paint is contaminated

    I can't speak to the normalcy of new car paint contamination but I can speak a little to travel and storage before they are sold. Yours, being ordered, probably didn't sit for too long but cars sit on lots for months waiting on transport. After that, they travel thousands of miles to dealers...

    Hello from KCMO

    I've been lurking for a few days and the sheer amount of things to learn, and namely the things I've been doing wrong are kind of frightening. I'm just a hobbyist on my own cars (and the occasional vacuum/wipe-down on my mother's car when I get brave enough) so it's nothing major. Looking...
