Don't be fooled. What you are about to see is not a TA50, nor does it cost $300+ Normally, I'd say go for quality, get the Rupes. The problem is that it's over $300 and they clearly claim that they do not think the machine will hold up to polishing. I'm not willing to pay $300 to find out that...

Here's a beautiful Corvette that I corrected. Following the correction I applied Opti-Coat pro to preserve my work and the paint, long term. This Vette was a major job, taking 15+ hours to bring the exterior back to life. I absolutely love taking slightly older cars like this to a whole new...

Hello all, It's been a very long time since I last posted, so it's about time. I haven't forgot about everyone, I've just been way too busy with my business. I've been detailing full time for a little over 3 years, but the past year has been a major transition for me as I've been focusing more...

Hello Geeks. I have been dabbling in aircraft detailing and would like to get serious about it. I've been doing some small jobs, mostly polishing out aluminum leading edges etc for Worldwide Aircraft Services in Springfield, Mo. They called me in to the hanger to look around this morning...

I had a client reschedule last second on me, yesterday, so I started early in the morning and worked all day and half the night rebuilding my website in HTML5. I just got it up and running and I am very pleased with how it looks. I am completely open to suggestions you guys have. Over the...

Tech guys. I built my site on Wix.com. It is flash based. Should I convert to HTML5? Apparently it's not extremely difficult to convert and I don't think it will cost me anything. A big stumbling block with the flash version is that the length of all my pages must be uniform. I really want to...

I had a guy email me the other day, wanting his interior detailed. He said not to worry about the exterior because of all the bullet holes! :eek: I didn't email back...:bolt: Just thought I'd share.

I really like how Joe has linked his pics to full write ups on the AG and Meg's forums. Not only does it help him out and allow his customers to see his detail process but it directs traffic to AG. A win/win in my book. Does anyone else do this? I'm thinking about doing something similar...

I just finished correcting a black (with blue metallic) Acura TL. I took quite a few photos and figured I'd show you guys some highlights of my process. Be sure to keep scrolling down. I added pics in 3 separate posts. Notable Products Used: Prep Meg's Hyper Wash (foam cannon and bucket)...

I just sent in an inquiry to become an authorized installer of Cquartz Finest. I'm pretty sure I meet all the requirements, and I don't think anybody is installing cquartz in my area. Anybody have any experience with becoming an installer? Any hassles or things to watch out for. I'm pretty...

Well, the product seems to work like advertised. . .no problem there. But, what in the world is up with this cheap A$$ bottle and sprayer? I wouldn't expect such low quality from KMart. Bottle has about the same structural durability as kleenex. Sprayer stopped working...oh...let's...

Lately I've been going through a bunch of different post about MF pads. It's hilarious to see older post from guys (myself included :o) bashing these pads. Man, I hated these things at first!:dunno: Now, most of the same guys are singing the praises of these things and use them almost...

I just turned down a client that spilled a 1/2 gallon of latex paint in her carpet. :eek: From what I understand, it was still fairly fresh. I started having visions of my extractor and vacuum, full of nasty paint and just couldn't do it. Was I right in turning her down?

I've recently started a new maintenance program. I'll be going out mobile and doing rinseless washing to maintain a few of my clients vehicles. My clients will have the option of once a month, twice a month or weekly. Should I just stick to ONR or should I switch to ONR wash and wax? I'll...

I officially have my maintenance program up. How does it look on my webpage? Status Club Maintenance Program As so of you know, I'm home shop based, but am going to start going mobile on fridays. This will strictly be Rinsless wash and wax and interior touch up. I'm going to use my personal...

I thought you guys might enjoy this. I really had a good time working on this car...and driving it haha. It was a pick up and delivery. The car was badly hologrammed when I picked it up. Sorry for no sun picks. -Meg's Microfiber Cutting Pads 3" and 6" -D300 and D301 -D-limonene pre treatment...

Hello fellow detailers. I am trying to create a maintenance program called the "Status Club" to better serve my clients. . . but for some reason I am just completely stumped and can't make up my mind how I want to do this. There are a few things that I think I want. -Monthly Billing (What's...

In case there is any doubt out there about the ability of meg's mf pads. Here is a truck I'll be working on for the next couple days. I'm working mostly on the interior today and prepping the outside. Correction will happen tomorrow. My goal is to quickly remove 80-90% of the defects. I'm...
