Hey guys I have been working on cleaning my car carpets with the DA cyclo brush and using folex for stains and laundry detergent for main clean. I am then sucking up the water/liquid with a wet vac. I am of course vacuuming before all this to make sure no loose dirt is there in the carpet. The...

Great that's really helpful!

How much Folex would you normally use for doing an entire vehicle if you are not diluting it with water? Will a 32oz bottle be enough???? I will be using my DA with a aqua cyclo brush to agitate and then planning to use a wet dry shop vac to suck it all up since I don't own a steamer.

Hey guys I am planning on using my DA with the aqua cyclo brush to clean the carpets of a friends car. I am probably going to use Meguires d101 product for the carpets or Folex. What I want to know is can I use a shop vac to suck up the agitated product in the carpet after I have used my DA? I...

Can you use Folex for cleaning entire carpets and upholstery of a car? Or is it only used for spot removal? Can I dilute the folex with water for general cleaning of car carpets and then use it concentrated for specific stains? I am going to be using my DA with the aqua cyclo brush for this.

Do you need to dilute the Folex with water? How far would a 32oz bottle get me if I was using it to spray the entire carpets, seats and upholstery of a car? Is Meguires D101 still a good product?

Hey guys I am planning to use my DA polisher with the aqua cyclo brush on the interior carpet and fabric seats of a friends car. What carpet cleaner should I get for this? I need it to remove stains but to also give everything a good wash and clean. I am not wanting to just do spot removal but...

Thanks everyone! Last question - what carpet/upholstery cleaner would you use? I have been thinking of the Meguires d101 all rounder. Is that good? Do I just mix it with water and then spray it on the carpet and begin the process?

Can I use these brushes on seat fabric (as well as the floor carpet) or would they be too rough for the seats? Would perhaps the white brush be more suitable?

Thanks everyone this is really helpful stuff! Someone on the first page recommended - Lake Country 4 Inch Yellow Carpet Scrubbing Pad with the DA for carpets etc. How does this compare with the Cyclo pads people have been talking about? I also came across - Chemical Guys ACC_201_BRUSH_C -...

Thanks everyone for your comments, thats really helpful! I think I will aim to use my DA then for cleaning carpets and seats. Are there a range of brush attachments (mild to aggressive) for doing this with a DA? What cleaning detergent would people recommend for the carpets and seats? Some...

Hi guys. I have a interior detailing job possibly coming up for a friend. All my detailing experience is exterior with a DA etc. So I am wondering how would be best to clean carpets and seats. In particular can I use my DA on the fabric and carpets with the appropriate brushes/pads? I do not own...

Sure that makes sense!

Thanks this is really helpful. I have no idea what detailers really charge yet (and will probably post a separate question for this). But didn't realize that a $200 price would normally be an AIO. What would a typical two stage and three stage normally be charged at??

Well I am trying to work out how much to charge for detailing. I haven't looked into different packages yet to offer as this is something I am doing on the side for people I know. But it seems many people are not expecting a full three stage polish, or they want to spend $200 Max for a good...

Ok so am I right in thinking that the more aggressive the pad is the more possibility that a second polish maybe required?

Hi guys, I am wondering is it possible to go from using UC with an orange pad straight to waxing (cutting out the middle polishing stage)? I know that when I use m105 it does need a second polish and then a wax. But with UC it has at times buffed off really well. No haze or anything. Has anyone...

Thanks really helpful stuff!

Hi guys is there a list of car models/makes which shows what their paint softness/hardness is generally likely to be? This would be a helpful aid when it comes to working out how aggressive I will need to be with compounding/polishing cars. I know Hondas for example tend to have soft paint...

Thanks that clears a lot up. Very helpful guys!
