Howdy. Has anyone ever heard of Nanoskin chipping the paint when used? I haven't and a friend is trying to say that he did it and chipped the paint.

Hey Geeks. It's been a while since I've posted. Been really busy with the family. They come first! Anyways... I have a question about how everyone deals with the stubborn carpet when they're vacuuming. I'm referring to the carpet that doesn't wanna release anything at all. Very rough and just...

Hey Geeks. I was asked by somebody the other day if I used an acid wash when detailing cars. I stated that I didn't and that was the end of that conversation. Back to the topic, what is an acid wash? I've never heard or it and I can't seem to find a definitive answer online. I've heard of...

Hey Geeks. Yet again, here's another thread about water spot removal. Be patient and here me out. The other day, I was working on a older Camaro. The client just wanted the his water spots removed. Upon inspection, these weren't your ordinary water spots. They were the spawn of Satan. Lol. It...

Hey Geeks. It's been a few weeks since my last post due to a family vacation to the Mother in Law's house. Yay me. NOT! Anyways. I'm trying to come up with an "Interior Inspection Form". I have an "Exterior" version that I got from Mike. Anyone have one that they'd like to share or advice that...

Fellow Geeks. I am in need of some assitance. I'm in search of a fellow Geek that can draw. I am in need of a logo for my business, BAD! I have tried multiple times, posted ad's of Craigslist and even looked for design companies online. Let's put it this way, my son, who's almost 3, can draw...

Hey Geeks. I wanna start a thread where we can post pictures of unique interiors that you've had the pleasure of detailing. Tomorrow, I have a detail scheduled. It's a black BMW with custom Gucci interior. Yes, Gucci! The purse company. The owner came by earlier for a quote and made an...

Hey Geeks. I'm currently located in Hawaii. The military is relocating us to Ft Belvoir, VA in July. Yes, it's a little while off, but that's the Army. Lol. I am just curious as to any members being located out there, what there is to do, and possibly which city Ft Belvoir is in. I can't seem to...

Hey Geeks. I have used Mother's Aluminum Polish and have been pleased with the results. However, it there is minor pitting, scratching or really "stubborn" areas, it doesn't work well. What other kind of bare metal polishes are there that'll work well. I don't have the option of removing the...

Geeks... ASSEMBLE! Lol. I have a question. I have a car scheduled for an exterior detail and paint correction on Saturday. It's a black BMW. The problem that i'm running into is that the roof, hood and trunk lid are covered with a fake CF vinyl. It's not permanent, but the owners are wanting it...

Hey Geeks. Do any of you guys & gals have this piece of equipment or it's smaller counterparts? I have a Craftsman vacuum/ blower combo, but the blower portion isn't any good. I have a small compressor, but it isn't as productive as I want. I've done some research on the Metro Blasters and...
