    My New DD 2016 Audi S4!!!

    I didn't read you had the coils, my bad :) Just thought you had springs. Perhaps I missed it, but did you get an ECU tune yet? Check out APR. Their chips are amazing, I've had them in all 3 of my Audi's, and I wouldn't look anywhere else. Good luck! Looks like you have a nice list of stuff to...

    Interior Cleaner

    I use my APC diluted usually 5/6:1. Then Mothers VLR. I don't have much experience with other products though..

    Engine Compartment

    I don't touch the engine bay. Unless requested. There's so much electrical crap in there that I don't even want to mess with. I used a power washer on one of my old Audi's and it was a no-no. Even with the plastics.

    My New DD 2016 Audi S4!!!

    Congrats on the S, and thank GOD you got rid of those stock wheels. How can anyone think those look appealing? UGH. I've had that AWE setup on my previous B7. I think you'll really like it. I also had the HR's, and was really impressed when coupled with bilsteins. Beautiful machine!

    Disclaimers

    The fact of the matter is, people are ALWAYS going to expect more and want to pay less. That's just how it is. I've found that by telling people what I include in my packages, and then tell them I offer additional services for "X amount", they tend to add those "add-ons" or will jump up to the...

    customer backed out after test spots were done.

    I'd have zero remorse about a 997 :) Just me, but I'm sorry to hear about that. I'd assure him that he can get his money back if you are to finish the vehicle. Let's be honest.... Would you rather buy a car with a crap finish, or a nice corrected one? If he's worried about the few hundred...

    Weird question about washing and drying your vehicle.

    Great question, IMO. I used to do it myself, and still see a lot of people doing it.

    2010 Audi Restore Leather?

    I've done the iron over a towel, but that was on their older leather. 2007/08. With the B8, I'm not sure if the composition of the leather is the same.

    Headlight restoration by hand

    I've always done them by hand as well. I've been looking at the 3M drill attachment here lately, and I'm pretty intrigued by it.

    Bug Massacre

    I've been using Poorboy's World Bug Squash. Apply, leave set 30s, and wipe off. I've had bugs on cars that have been on there for years, and it cleans them right off. I've tried the Mothers Waterless Wash & Wax, and it works wonderfully! Newer product, and it's great.

    Do you incorporate a 1" Boar's Hair Brush

    I've found out that I'll be needing a couple of these more than I thought. I think they'd be great on the interior to get into those hard to reach spots. I commonly find myself trying to dig into space with my hands that I cannot reach, and well, you guessed it.. It doesn't turn out so nicely...

    How TO Clean Doorway

    How do you get the jambs clean with a HP rinse without getting water in the vehicle? Is there an invisible wall they have for sale?! :P

    Before / After Carpet Cleaning... Advice

    It looks a hell of a lot better than it did! The only honest answer I'd give the customer is, that if he wants clean carpet, he's going to have to replace it. Then put mats over it, and coat it with a protector.

    Newbie to the forum

    Man, wish I could afford to drop $500 right now.. After all of these deals they've been having lately, I've been getting packages left and right! Nice order, and welcome aboard :)

    Routine engine cleaning.

    I see guys quite frequently around here using a pressure washer. I've always been taught not to go that route. Electrical connections and such. I've always thought steam cleaning or by hand is best. No?

    Rupes Mini vs. GG 3"

    Well that's sad. I had a 3" GG on my wishlist, and I was almost about to pull the trigger on it! Glad I didn't :) Side note, since I'm still new to detailing, what "entry level" polisher would you recommend that won't break the bank? Sorry for the thread jack...
