this is a budget cleaner that i got off amazon for $70. I sadly dont have many dirty cars to try this on so i was sort of forcing it and the jobs i did use it for although it did them well. were probably just as easy with a rag and some APC. That said I was impressed. It was not only very...

Figured i would post this now. This is a Pierce-Arrow that i maintain for several shows. it took Second place at Amelia Island Concours D' Elegance in 2009. It also won awards at 100 Motorcars of Radnor Hunt as well as a few other shows. The Car: The Process: I apologize for not having...

Ok so what does everyone use for vacuums? I am looking into getting something with some power and available accessories to get into the small areas. I looked at the Metro VAC N GO 500 Plus 3 Ft. Flexible Hose & Filters it seems like a decent unit, but i have found a few by Shop-Vac and Rigid...

First off, wanted to thank AutoGeek and Meghan. I won this product in the giveaway a few weeks ago. I decided to try this product in a few different ways. My methods of application were. Spray on vehicle, let sit for a few moments (20 seconds) and then wipe clean with a microfiber. I didnt...

ok, so the other day working on a car I sanded, and buffed it with my rotary and the finished looked great but there were some swirls so i got out my DA with a yellow pad and some 105 to cut them down. I did a section and wiped it clean to find that the DA left a terrible hazing effect of little...

Anyone using these pads probably has asked themselves this same question before. Why so many different types of pads? I understand that they are developed for different types of products. but what products fit each type of pad? I have a hard time deciding what to use. Right now I have: -...

Ok, I have been doing some more research and decided to try out some new waxes for my cars. I currently use P21s and i feel like this stuff can barely hold up to a strong breeze let alone being washed once a week. I have heard others say the shine wasn't to impressive vs these other waxes so i...

!-- I have terrible grammar. Deal with it --! Well I got a sample of Super Slick and Suds with mu last order. For months i have been using Meguiars Detailer Line - Shampoo Plus. Its wonderful, it does a great job and its cheap. But I love to try something new, Also i get samples of car wash...

I was just curious if any of the detailers here have their own line of products. I keep coming across these little one off brands at local shops. I use this one persons products and really like them. Sad thing is, this person no longer is providing these products. So the supply i have will...

!- I apologize in advance for my horrible grammar and spelling - ! Ok, so I have been browsing these forums and read several threads and I have noticed that you guys have the talent for detailing but some of you seem to be lacking in the marketing section. I think the reason behind this is...

Ok, so right off the bat let me say im not talking about scratches that i can damp sand away. Ive done that with fantastic results. What i am on about in this thread is the little surface scratches(cobb webs mainly but all forms) that i feel should go away after i use 105 and a rotary and then...

Ok, Now I know the mechanical differences between the two. Ive been using an old Vector Rotary for a while now. it has never failed me, and does a great job. but its a bulky, heavy machine. Im using 8.5" pads on it. it works great for just about everything (except those hard to reach places)...

Ok, so ive got some cars that have some heavy build up on them and instead of wasting my time with delicate shampoo's i want something to cut through the grime. This is for a work truck fleet service i take care off. So I've got few trucks to do and they are all in similar condition. They aren't...

So this wasnt really my first detailing job but it was the first time I ever took pictures of it. I recently picked up detailing. although I have always cared for my cars. I know now i was doing more damage then good for years. Anyway, this car is going to a local show for charity this weekend...
