Can anyone provide more information about the new Flex XCE 9-8 150 that was released at SEMA this year? Im specifically interested in what pads will be available/recomended, and if a new revised LC Hybrid pad will be created to accomodate the 5" backing plate this machine is supposedly coming...

While I enjoy my Flex 3401, one thing Ive never been able to wrap my head around is the odd backing plate sizes. Why the heck did they not make a standard size like everyone else!? I dont understand why they think a 4-3/8 inch is a good size for 5 and 5.5 inch pads. Anybody know the reason...

Last week I finally got to try out my new Wolfgang Uber AIO. I do a lot of BMW's and Mercedes and they are both known to have hard paint. This 99 BMW 330 with rock hard jet black paint was the perfect candidate. The Color of Wolfgang Uber AIO is a light green with a pleasant carnauba scent. I...

Last weekend we had a get together in NorVA at Jakes (Jsou) shop called Blockstar Cars. It was a great turnout and we also had the pleasure of having tuscarora dave there who drove down from PA. This was a great time and allowed everyone to try different products we were interested in including...

With the announce that LC was releasing a pad for large throw machines I could not wait to try them, but at the same time was skeptical on how they would compare to my favorite Rupes pads (Green & Yellow). I purchased each of the new Orbital pads (Blue, Orange, Red) and tested them thoroughly...

From what I've seen of these they look like they use the same foam as the standard Hydrotechs. Is this correct? Also is there any word on if they will make these in 3" or 4" sizes for the Rupes 75E?

Hey guys thought I'd share a recent correction I did for a client. This car was a TRAIN WRECK! The owner had his car "buffed" at the dealership by someone with zero rotary experience. It had holograms and buffer trails galore. He wanted me to perform a 1 step to keep it within his budget and...

I was on a time crunch with this vehicle so I didnt take any before pictures but I can assure you it was pretty gross. I detailed this clients wifes car earlier in the year and they were both so impressed that he wanted to get his done as well. After him explaining what he was looking and his...

Been awhile since I've posted here but I thought Id stop in and say hello. This has been an absolutely awesome year! I never would have imagined being this busy with my detailing business on top of my full time job. I filed for LLC earlier this year and I'm so glad I did. I have been truly...

I have a possible paint correction I'll be doing on an Audi A4. I know that all paint is different but what would you categorize Audi paint as? Ive been told soft and ive also been told its medium hardness. For those that have worked on it what do you recomend I use? I dont think it can be as...

Last weekend I finally had the opportunity to try out and test Son1c's new Protowax 93. I've been a supporter and fan of his waxes since he first started releasing them. Today I will be comparing Protowax 93 to Carnaubavore. First things first I cleaned the wheels and tires and then washed...

This weekend I headed up to Northern VA to meet up with Jake (JSou) at Blockstars LLS BlockStarCars to help correct a black Lexus LS460 for an upcoming car show called Springfest. All in all we had a fantastic time detailing and tackling this car. We went full beast mode on it. Products used...

I just purchased some new drag rims for my Mustang and they are polished aluminum. What coating would you suggest to protect them from oxidation and brake dust? Im on a budget and dont want to spend an arm and leg on some of the high end coatings. Thank you!
