    Speed brush vs. Wheel woolies.

    Doesn't take much more than the advice of my buddy Don to convince me. Wheel Woolie set arrived today, can't wait to try them. Construction appears to be excellent, I expect they will work as well as all the proclamations. Thanks and take care. Peace, Darrin

    Pros, how long do you take to do a "full detail" on a sedan?

    Ok, nitty gritty. I charge $50 an hour for my services. Some jobs take longer. I will always amend prices if a customer needs a specific task. Peace, Darrin

    Pros, how long do you take to do a "full detail" on a sedan?

    This is funny and I agree. You have to start somewhere, time is money, indeed. A favor here or there does goodness for the soul. Pick your choices. Take care. Peace, Darrin

    Pros, how long do you take to do a "full detail" on a sedan?

    476S is a excellent choice. I love that wax. As far as payment, that is the ultimate question when dealing with friends. I dunno, I just did my neighbors Jeep, wasn't going to charge him at all. Tried a few new products on the detail. Just so happened the products work beautifully, and he was...

    Speed brush vs. Wheel woolies.

    Hey y'all, Hope you're having a great day. Okay, so I have the Speed brush set. Also considering the Wheel woolies set. Overkill? Both appear to be excellent products, love the Speed brushes. Would you get the Woolies too, to creat ultimate wheel coverage. Thanks & take care. Peace, Darrin

    Applying wax in SUNLIGHT

    As stated by Setec, it's more about the surface temperature than it is the sunlight. Sunny and hot, not good. Sunny and cool or cold, not bad. Just use common sense. Good luck and take care. Peace, Darrin

    They say there are no dumb questions...

    Hey rob, Just need to do a little reading up and it will be clear as your car is soon to be. As said before, go over Mike's articles or better yet get one of his books. He makes a living making sure we know what we're doing, and is one of the best at doing so. Believe me, it's not rocket...

    Review: Menzerna SF-4000

    Yes, absolutely. First hand knowledge. Followed it with 476S a year ago. BTW, 476S rocks! And so does the Menz, of course. Peace, Darrin

    Drying process - wet vs dry towel (help)

    I use a dry waffle-weave immediately after washing is done. I lay it across each side of the hood, presto, no more dry towel. I dab at first more than I wipe, for the towel get more moist. I have a second (smaller waffle-weave I use to do the leaky spots and hit the lower quadrants). Lastly I...

    Washing in the rain!

    Man, it was chilly, no lying. Used Optimum Car Wash diluted in a spray bottle to hit it with some awesome lubricity. Did a quick wash and got my ass back inside. 67 deg doesn't seem as warm as it sounds when you're in a cool rain. Still feel good about giving Lacey a well received a quick clean...

    When to replace pads??

    I agree with Don, mostly because what he has told me rings true, and because his advice hasn't failed me yet. I myself gravitate towards to something citrus based. It works and it also tastes great in my winter salads. Clean car and great side salad, can't beat it. Good luck and take care...

    Washing in the rain!

    Ya know, at first I was going to ask, have you washed in rain? But then I thought about it and hell yeah, I'm gonna wash when it's coming down in buckets. Supposed to get a downpour here in an hour or so. Lacey is dirty from the brine solution they lay down here in NC before the onset of...

    Griot's Garage DA vibration too much, now what?

    Hey Ike, Sorry about the vibration problems you are having. I believe there is something wrong with your machine. I've had mine for a year now and have experienced very little vibration. I even use one hand with no trouble in certain situations. I do make sure the pad is accurately attached to...
