    ONR Wash & Wax

    Firstly, I've been a huge Optimum brand nut for a couple years. ONR was the first product I used and several other products was purchased quickly after.

    NYC West End Detail (picture heavy)

    Help on How to Clean Engine Bay of 2005 Volvo S60 2.5T

    If anyone with this model can help with exactly what I should cover up when I do a engine cleaning, I built up enough courage through reading to go for it in a couple of days. I found a pic online of a T5 Engine bay, looks like the same design as my 2005 2.5T. I edited the pic of things I would...

    Newb Volvo S60 Member

    I have been buying products from autogeek since this past spring time (as a result of discovering the Nomad portable hose and Optimum No rinse wash from a detailer online). I would consider myself an amateur detailer (just as a hobby), as I like to clean/maintain my car myself (it's my baby...
