    Getting in shape

    Here's the thing Bob, what does God first state in Genesis about what we should eat? Never mentions eating meat until after the fall of man into sin. He allows it accommodate us. Also, read how ceremoniously meat was supposed to be prepared and eaten. What I state to people is do what works BEST...

    Where to stay?

    If your parents like the beach then you can't go wrong with anywhere in South Florida.;D If they like peace and quite the anywhere around Stuart will work for them. And there are plenty of attraction not far from Stuart. If it were me I would stay near Stuart to save of hotel costs, and let them...

    Getting in shape

    Way to make this decision ConeArrow27. I could go on and on about this subject, so I try to keep it short. Like stated already, what you eat plays a bigger role in health. There is a huge difference in being healthy and being fit. To be healthy, and stay healthy,requires a lifestyle change...

    Delta Spray Bottles

    Do those adjust to produce a jet/stream? Or only an atomized mist, to a normal spray pattern?

    New Detail shop booming

    Mike, how effective is the Tornador Blaster vacuum tool on removing sand/fine debris from carpets/floor mats, and seams and crevices on seats? If it is as effective as steam, yet safer than scrubbing, then I am sold. Thanks for sharing, as always, Mike.

    New Detail shop booming

    This is awesome to hear Kevin! Love hearing about fellow Louisiana folks do well and the economy their supporting folks. I grew up in Baton Rouge and Livingston Parish, and my dad is a machinist in Baton Rouge. So I know what a struggle it can be and how the economy can be slow. Is your new...

    HE Washer

    Most detergents say what amount to use for HE washers. And like stated, no more than 2oz is needed with MF specific detergents. I always do an extra rinse if adding more than an ounce to loads of MFs in my HE washer. Instead of adding more detergent for dirtier loads you are better off...

    Polish drying quickly

    Humidity possibly. As temps drop the air can get dry. Then adding a space heater to an already arid environment only makes things worse. During your processes did you try spritzing some water onto the panel?

    Best microfiber towels for rinseless

    For rinse-less washing where the wash mitt and or MF is completely saturated I prefer not having super plush towel that can weigh down the dirt that I am trying to gently remove from the surface. Something edge-less and no more than 530gsm is ideal IMO; too plush and the dirt doesn't rinse out...

    M105 in rock chips

    That was a thought of mine as well. But my ADD got in the way of me mentioning it. Is it more gray than white?

    M105 in rock chips

    More first thought was "like removes like" but, like Bob said that may not be a feasible option. Did you try going over with M205 on a MF cloth? Or a paint cleansing lotion or cleaner wax? Black Wow's Pre-Wow may work as well, if you have any or someone near you does. Tar-X or Tarminator may...

    Calling all Photographers

    Often, I have browsed the aisle at a local store and ultimately felt I was in over my head, and felt I would over-buy if I went into a camera shop. I assume, some would love to help guide this topic in the proper direction, whereas others, will say I am making this harder than it needs to...

    Grout Sponge Technique

    The only time use sponges of any sort is when I am spreading a product onto a surface and want some scrubbing action, like with IronX. For actually trapping the dirt and contaminates from the surface nothing works as well as quality MF. Plus MF can conform to different surfaces and with minimum...

    Black Lexus 2011 AWD IS 250 Dealer Post Prep. Suggestions

    So what was the outcome? How many miles were on the car? And did the customer request and or say he/she was looking to achieve?

    Fair price for close friends?

    Close friends want to pay you what is fair and trust you. So don't second guess and try to break it down and over explain yourself to them. Just charge what is right. Most of my best paying customers/clients are close friends. Why are you planning on putting 3 coats of wax on a 12 month sealant...

    Acura NSX Corrected and Coated with Cquartz Finest…Greg Gellas Signature Detailing

    Great work restoring the paint and leather. Are you trained in leather repair or is it something you have taught yourself? Either way, I have several clients that need that kind of repair and would love to master the skill of refinishing leather. I started working on a white NSX a few weeks ago...

    FLEX Announcement for SEMA - Can You Guess What it is?

    Renny Doyle did a video interview with Bob from FLEX and they showed the new polisher. I think it's a DA. Might be a small rotary but, looked more like a traditional DA body. We will see.

    2012 Chevy Tahoe Crystal Red - paint correction

    Nice work. Is this the tinted clear coat? If so did you find it easy to correct? What products did you test before deciding on FG400? IIRC I used mostly WGTSR/Menz-SIP and got really good correction. Hope you educated the client on proper maintenance and not to use any automatic car washes.

    Washing Car in Direct Sunlight at a Customer's Location

    Duragloss shampoo and waterless and rinseless products are a great combo if having to work in direct sun and or high temps. Limit the amount of water sprayed on the vehicle especially if there is only very light dirt on the vehicle. I usually only apply car shampoo to the dirtier areas like the...
