Sorry to make you repeat yourself just making sure I do this RIGHT I really want to get the right techniques down with the right products

Ok dumb question what is APC and BCB and you are talk about using black light on top of the sealant?

Ok what's a good glaze? And when you say cure don't wipe off for 12 hours the. Wipe off an wax

Wow I really never would have thought of that! Looks like I'm going to be redoing my car lol that might be the solution to my whole problem hmm What's the order you should go in exactly swirl remover polish sealant then wax I was told you do wax last since the life of the wax is shorter than...

Ok so I've for sure been using to much product then :/ I'm not doing any large vehicles more compact or mid size so I figured one set of pads per vehicle would be sufficient that was a huge help there thanks!! Good to know when I go to do it again

Yea I always clay bar before I start (griots garage yello clay bar) seems to work really well

Yea CG'S has been quite my addiction lately I do have the EZ creme glaze I do love it myself :)

Ok I've got another question for you when using (in my case cyclo orbital) whether compound polish wax sealant can you use to much product I notices the last time I worked on polishing that I had soaked all the way throught the pad with product is it possible to use to much? I also use mike's...

that's awesome! I was trying or thinking of using the collinite insulator wax and their marque d' elegance wax but I was just going by the description and I know ive read a lot of reviews on the insulator wax its supposed to be unmatched but nothing about whether it provides gloss. Im sorry...

do you think I could choose a better polish or compound? the bottle of polish I used was a small sample size so I am going to have to order products before I do want to know what I am getting ya know?

You're right on the money there! Everything says best gloss best removal but what really works? I own a cyclo orbital polisher using the blue pads I used meguiars ultimate polish in the black bottle. Its obviously VERY mild I'm sure but it did get a lot of the swirls out the paint. I don't know...

Ok guys, I'm fairly new to the more professional side of the detailing world im doing a few vehicles here soon and all three the paint is in very good condition. But has spiderweb swilrs things like that. I had decided I would use the mequiars mirror glaze 205 I am still open to ideas there...

Yea I am definitely going the bulk route. I bought new spray bottles today that will allow me to more accuretley an hopefully last longer lol

Now I do have a another question obviously chemicals aren't cheap especially stuff that works how do I figure that in on my fee for doing the job to me the most important when doing someone else's vehicle just as advertisement I'm still wanting to be able to refill the stuff on used on THEIR vehicle

WOW awesome help and advice thanks!!!!!!

Id like to find a way to compete with the other second rate companies here locally. It is going to be hard to get people to realize the real difference between having the car wash spend an extra 30 minutes spraying it with tire shine and spray wax lol to taking it to some one who is going to...

I know this discussion shows up on here often and I have gathered some good advice. For the longest time I've always enjoyed detailing my own cars although I am still novice I do think i do a good job. I have read the boards as far pricing goes and I think i have a pretty good understanding of...

I think you're right as far as a rotory machine. I've been looking into the griots garage one. I do keep seeing alot of people using the porter cable DA also so I may look further into purchasing that one.

I totally understand that which is why from my experience have been very good about not letting things sit on my paint etching it. Bird droppings and bugs are my enemies here in KY. I did purchase poorboy's world bird s*#t remover has worked great! Most of mine defects are the small hard to see...
