    Do you use face mask doing detailing?

    Also people sometimes don't think of is the storage of the mask and filters especially when it have been opened up. They put the mask and filters in the detailing cabinet or close to storage or in a garage where the storage is not sealed up. The problem you get now can be more hazardious than if...

    Facebook Detailing group?

    Yeah but with the intended use of Facebook where you should have your name and not being anonymous. Many have an account on there to be anonymous and especially the ones that just want to argue and belittle people and such. Then it's also much about how the FB groups are administrated. Just like...

    Paint discolouration of White Car

    I'm not Mike. But it looks like the drivers door where repainted. How do you think that the other side looks on the car and other parts as well? Candy paints can be tricky to get it to color match. And if used a non candy paint it's usually getting a more clear and bright finish from it. The...

    Scratches on front windshield

    As mentioned try to clay bar it to see if it's any transfer from what hit the windshield if you have not done so yet. You can do the same thing with a polish by hand too. If you want to get some kind of correction done on glass which is very hard to get any correction done on. From the AGO store...

    Ceramic Pro Cure Time and Salt / Brime

    Do the coin-op has DI water rinse option? If so it's a good way to rinse with as the last thing you do. Or actually maybe this is crazy but if you do the PW rinse off at the coin-op while it's raining or snowing with not so much under the freezing point. You can drive from there without any...

    Ceramic Pro Cure Time and Salt / Brime

    The road salt and brine will not harm the coating. It's just the visual of it. As others had said a week and it's fine to be doing a contact wash. Carpro Reset car soap is awesome to keep your coating deep cleaned. Personally I would skip just a rinse with the PW. Maybe if you have a good...

    What did you do today, in regards to detailing?

    Have not been able to wash my Kia since I topped it with PA High Gloss in early december. It has been raining today but at 3pm it stopped for a while. So drag out the Kärcher K7 and fill the 2 buckets. Decided to test out my new Turtle Wax Wash Broom with mf chenille material and extended pole...

    Black Painted Rims

    As some has mentioned the brushes or wheel wash mitts is more important to get a quality of those. Many wheel brushes I think is way to aggressive than needed to be. Wheel Woolies for the wheel barrels and either of the 2 brushes on the wheel face. Or great mf towels dedicated to wheel cleaning...

    Ceramic (type) quick spray?

    Are you in need of to have a cleaning ability from it like a QD or Waterless Wash! If not if just on dry paint. I have heard those that dilute Meguiars Hybrid Ceramic Wax to 1:5-1:7. And apply it like you would do with a QD for glossenhancing and that newly waxed feel. Don't use to much of the...

    Looking for small van for mobile business - suggestions?

    Don't know if you have these modells or if it's called something else. But VW Caddy has a modell simualar to the Transit Connect and even one notch bigger modell. What I was thinking about is that many traded in or cancelled their buys when the diesel emission scandal where. If you are able to...

    Salt dust

    Not a dedicated prewash foam. You can use MultiX and maybe TRIX as a pretreatment with just spraying them on. Maybe MultiX would work in the foamcannon or foam gun but it's very expensive option. Even if it's concentrated you use much more product when you foam. But say a regualar pump pressure...

    Some thoughts on the Flex PXE (PiXiE)

    Sure it's a new powertool but say that you bought an extra 1" sanding attachement. And glued a velcro peice on it so you can use different kind of sanding discs. Then there are some nice stamping sets that you can make your own pads from bigger pads and sanding discs.

    cracking paint?

    Just to clarify. Is the repainted parts base color coat and then clearcoat or single stage paint? 57Rambler is that's so with all of the base color coat/clearcoats systems that they don't need the flex agent? Is it usual from the lower end paint jobs that they skip the primer when repainting...

    Salt dust

    If you have a PW and a foamcannon and a leafblower that you mentioned. You can go through with a touchless wash on ceramic coatings pretty good. Not that it gets perfectly cleaned if it's too dirty. But say once or 2 between a contact wash. Then it's how you have the water outlets and the...

    Pressure Washing?

    What's the specs from the Honda gas PW you have in gpm and the psi? I always use a PW when washing my cars. If you have damaged paint like it's flakes just don't get the PW nozzle over it. Then it's much of the gpm from the PW in how powerfull the PW are. But you can lower the psi from it with...

    Pinnacle Black Label Diamond Wheel Coating - Chemical Resistance

    It could be worth to test out the Sonax Wheel Cleaner Plus. It's more effective to desolve the imbedded brake dust. And it's ph neutral which actually most non acidic wheel cleaners are not. A dedicated paint iron remover would work great too. If the coating has standed up to the accumulated...

    Carpro ech2o + Clarify + GlassFiber towel + GTechniq I2 Tri-Clean reviews

    Awesome write up and review! Man I'm getting more sold on the Carpro Glass Towels and Clarity the more I hear of these. Didn't know about the foam interface in the glass towel but that you did get so much done with them makes it even more impresive. I also use a lot of glass towels so that's...
