6 hours. That's what it took me to clean my wife's 2015 Light Blue Infinity Q50. And I didn't even bother to vacuum it out. Started at 10am. Had to move my truck and car so i could get hers right in the middle of the driveway. My plan was just wash and Collinite 845, clean and dress the...

So, i've been thinking of getting into detailing for money instead of fun. I've slowly acquired a lot of tools for doing the jobs right.....Mytee Lite II carpet extractor, Vapor Chief 75 steam cleaner, Tornador Black, Flex 3401, and next week my Rupes Mark II 15 comes in, and i was recently...

Hey guys... My boss wants me to clean up her Suburban a little. Due to time constraints, doing a full paint correction is not in the cards. Basically a wash , claybar and wax. Looking at her paint, she has these spidermarks all over the truck. So. i'm looking for recommendations on a...

I came into work last week, and saw that the pawn shop a few doors down had left out a generator. Thinking that they left it out on accident, i wheeled it into the shop. I'd return it when they opened up, as I know the owner . Out of curiosity, I tried to start it. The pull cord wound not budge...

I went to that pawn shop right down the street from where i work. They have a pretty beat up PC 7424 fro $35. I don't NEED a polisher, as I have a FLEX 3401 and a harbor freight DA polisher that's still kicking. But, as a man who believes HE WHO DIES WITH THE MOST TOYS WINS, i'm wondering if...

Hello all... im thinking of getting a new polisher before the 25% off sale ends. Im wanting a Rupes, but I'm a little confused about the different models. while I'll say the 21 Mark II sounds good, I don't think I'm willing to go that high in price. i have a Flex 3401, and love it. But I...

I already have a gas pressure washer that will cut a 2x4 in half. That's not a joke. I did it on a bet. Hey, you'd do it too for a 6-Pac of beer. Anyway, I going to get into car detailing on the side this summer, and lugging the Behemoth gas washer just ain't gonna happen. I'm looking at the...

OK guys.... it's been a good while since i posted here on this forum. Been busy as an auto tech. working myself sick. I was recently let go at my previous job, but thankfully, i was able to get out of debt and save a damn good amount of money, so I take it as a blessing being able to do that...

I like buying things. A lot. This past year I bought a Flex 3401, a mother load of pads and MF towels, waxes, cleaners, applicators, you name it. I even bout a Mytee Lite II. I just bought a Tornador Black. I should get it today in the mail. Now, I'm looking at the Tornador foam cannon. It...

Ine been wanting one for some time now, and I finally pulled the trigger on it last night. 25% off....free shipping....and a free prize. I didn't have a compressor before, so that's what kept me from buying one. The compressor at my job took a dump last summer, and it just sat in the corner...

As the title says, I got some Pinnacle XMT Finishing Glaze. It looks purple. I bought it on the Memorial Day sale, and finally got around to using it. When i opened it, it came out real watery. Like well thinned paint. I shook the hell out of it, but still the same results. I even went so...

.....it sucks !!! I finally got around to waxing my 2001 Honda Civic that I bought from a friend. After fixing the engine, and countless hours cleaning the interior, and taking what seemed FOREVER.....FOREVER......FOREVER.....to buff out the massive swirls that this little 2 door beast from...

Hello again everyone.... I wanted to ask anyone who owns a vx5000 if it was worth the money they paid for it. I have a McCollugh steamer...the small one that rolls around and takes forever to heat up. The only problem with this steamer is that, when I let it sit for a few minutes, and then go...

I got a Honda civic that I bought to fix up and sell. Paid $300 for it, and have my work cut out for me to get it running. When I sell it, i plan on buying a good steamer. I Saw the VAPOR RINO at justrenewit.com but cant find any reviews on it. I'm interested....but would like a little...

I just bought a Flex 3401on the easter sale AG had going on. Busted it out of the UPS box and went to polish my truch with Menzerna sf4500. When i went to clean the pad, I knew i was going to have problems, as the pad was forced to rotate. I just balled up a MF towel, and sprayed the pad...

Hey geeks... I'm planning on asking a few friends to drop their car off at my house on a Saturday so i can do a full interior/exterior detail. I'm not quick and dirty, as the saying goes, when it comes to detailing, so a good 8-10 hours seems like a decent time frame for me to get it done...

Last week when i bought my Mytee Lite II, the store i bought it from had a bunch of detailing supplies from this company. All of their products were cheaper than the Megs and other brand name stuff. I picked up this bottle for $4.99, and my wife loves it for her car and the house when she...

Hey guys... Just went to Home Depot to get some stuff. I saw this in the isle before going to the checkout counter. Went home, washed the car....AGAIN...and WOW...it works good. $32 bucks. Has a 30 satisfaction guarantee and a 2 year limited warranty. Can't beat that with a stick.

So last week, i bought me a new Mytee Lite II. Called a friend, we did his carpet, came out great. Today, i did my truck. Same results. M y wife said it looked brand new. I love it!! Now for the cons: The hooks to wrap the cord around are WAY TOO SMALL. I may get 3 wraps, and the long...
