    Cobra Supreme 530 Extra Large

    That was my first thought. Maybe I'll gift wrap it and give it to the wife as an anniversary present, tell her it's a bathmat. On second thought...

    Cobra Supreme 530 Extra Large

    Accidentally ordered the Cobra Supreme extra large 530 towels, the ones that are 24X36. One very nice towel just awfully big for a 530 g/m2 towel The only thing I can think of using them for is for the top of a SUV while doing a rinseless wash, fewer trips off the step stool. Or possably as a...

    Been out of the detailing game for a while

    Was in the same boat as you couple of months ago, yes it is confusing with all the different brands out there. The one suggestion I have is to stay with one product line, especially with paint. For example one brand of sealant may not work well with another brand of spray wax. Of course if...

    My FIRST bad interaction with customer

    I've been in the service business for well over 30 years so have run into many, many people like you describe. Most just want a little extra here and there to feel special, while others will push the envelope to see how many no cost extras they can get out of someone, especially a small...

    California Duster myths

    Used one for years on the company vehicles, never really saw any micro marring that so many worried about. However was still afraid to use it on my personal vehicles, just did not want to take the chance. That said with all the new versions of rinseless washes and how quick and EZ they are...

    New Tradition Starts MONDAY!

    I'm on board with a second warehouse location. UPS costs must be sky high to the west from Florida and its hard to recoup that cost with free shipping over $150. Goodies would show up on the door step sooner for the left coast so it's a win-win situation.

    Using Only 4 Sides of the 8 Sides of a Towel

    What you say makes sense, oil in your hand if not using nitrile gloves. Personally always use just 4 sides due to the difference in the nap in microfiber towels (excluding WW),

    Cleaning Glass (Damn you Streaks !!!)

    Use a high end glass cleaner like Pinnacle McKee's etc. Use a waffle weave towel clean glass, spray a second time and clean again. Have not tried the Griot's PFM window microfibers oneheadlite mentioned but sounds interesting. If that does not work try a polish, may have oil or road grime...

    Sorry to see this happened to such a beauty. Some people just don't get it. Been lucky so far with dealers but funny thing when the wife dropped our car off with do not wash instruction the response was "we change our brushes once a year so nothing to worry about" Her response...there will be...

    I just have to share - my first official detail supply order

    Very nice order!! Every time you detail there will be something else you can't live without so be prepared. As far as moving products indoors this time of year I would say yes. Live in Vegas so temps are similar, move everything in early June and back out to the garage in September. Wish I...
