    How to clean an engine compartment

    As a former "Mr. Goodwrench", may I suggest that if you're wondering what would be best to cover up in your engine compartment that you go to the dealer and talk to a technician and ask him to point out what to be careful with. They know best :dblthumb2:

    Does a foam gun cut down on time?

    I just pulled up Chemical Guys video of foaming a car. I think my mistake was I didn't dilute it in the bottle as you can see at 1:18 in the video of him adding Mr. Pink to the cannon. MR. PINK Super Suds Shampoo - Chemical Guys Car Wash FOAM CANNON - BEST CAR WASH EPIC FOAM - YouTube I guess...

    Does a foam gun cut down on time?

    Just used my foam cannon for the first time the other night. If you put the soap on really thick like shaving cream that you've seen on some videos, you'll go through a lot! I almost went through my whole liter of Iron X Snow Soap. I then tried using the cannon with Meq's Gold Class Car Wash...

    Iron-X question???

    Really? The name of the product is Iron X Snow Soap! CarPro says, "Clean your car and remove iron particles at the same time!" I was not expecting the product to show chemical reaction to the bird droppings. The birds presented the opportunity for me to try the product and see how it decon'd...

    Iron-X question???

    I was referring to AG's site. I did not go to CarPro. However I think CarPro's wording is a little vague. "...proper decontamination?" What do they consider proper decon? Then further on they state, "Snow Soap is a perfect match for maintenance. Clean your car and remove iron particles at...

    Iron-X question???

    Well...I received my Iron X Snow Foam and Foam Cannon yesterday from UPS. And low and behold an opportunity presented itself on my company SUV which got bombed by birds yesterday while I was working. And as you guys said, the snow foam doesn't seem very aggressive. I did not see any purple...

    Cleaning Wheels in Winter w/Rinseless or Waterless?

    Sometimes Bunky. NE Ohio snowfall totals have been light over the past few years but temps are generally below freezing so I don't want to use the pressure washer with those types of temps for fear of damaging it as well as creating an ice rink in my driveway. I suppose I could rinse with...

    Cleaning Wheels in Winter w/Rinseless or Waterless?

    Being that I live in northern Ohio, the winters are cold & snowy....therefore lots and lots of salt is used on the roads. I've decided on using a rinseless wash for the car panels but I'm at a loss on how to handle the wheels. How do you folks handle this? Thanks!

    Critique my package and price plan please

    You really have a lot of great advice Cyclesafe. But I was puzzled by setting the prices high and then offering a discount. Wouldn't he then have to always offer a discount to customers to be competitive in the future? Thanks for sharing your marketing saavy :)

    Menzerna... top notch?

    Just finished my Mom's car a few weeks ago with Menzerna. You'll like the FG400. Cuts great and leaves a great shine as well. I then used SF4000 (SF4500 is fine as well) and then PowerLock. Turned out great! I can't speak for the durability of the Power Lock however since it is my first...
