2 more years. That's how much time I have left until I'm finally done with school and will become a doctor. Unlike all of my friends in medical school, I never wanted to be a doctor and didn't even think about it until I was 21. At that time I was an accounting and finance major who also ran a...

I know I've been out of the detailing game for a while, but I really hope my favorite interior protectant wasn't discontinued. I can't seem to find it anywhere. Does anyone have news on this? EDIT: After looking on their website I still don't find it but it looks like they may have re-bottled...

Hi Everyone, I don't really expect this to start much of a discussion on anything, but I really felt like sharing it. I used to be super active on this forum, but stopped starting around 2017-ish when I changed my major from accounting and finance into exercise science with a pre-medical...

Anyone have an issue with their backing plate on the G15 being slightly unlevel? It looks like the backing plate wobbles, but it's down firm and tight. I haven't called customer support about it because I don't have the polisher on me right now. I left my stuff at my parents house and I'm back...

Have any of you had experience with these pads? I have over 40 pads, but some of them are old and I plan on using them all with my 8mm machines only. I just got a G15 and I'm a huge stickler for having plenty of pads. I'll probably buy at least 15 foam pads (I'm definitely buying 5 BOSS MF pads...

Are any of you guys big sneakerheads? I find it interesting the many different materials found on shoes - especially sports oriented shoes. Which products and how do you guys clean your shoes? Are there any detailing products you like to use?

Hey guys, I don't know how many of you have back/neck/shoulder issues, but I am now finished with my nearly 3 years of physical therapy. It's been a really, really hard 3 years, but I learned a lot from it. Any way, I've been using a Porter Cable and GG6 polisher since I've been detailing. I...

Well, I don't know why I haven't tried it earlier. I've been personally using D101 and professionally using OPC as my APCs. I've had the same gallon of D101 for about 4 years and I'm not even half way through it. Since Carquest is getting rid of their DG products, I decided to drag my...

Anybody ever heard of a product called the Rinse Kit? I was at my local bike shop because I'm planning on changing up my mountain bikes drivetrain this summer, and they had a product that could hold 2 gallons of water and came with a standard garden sprayer (shower, jet, mist, etc) and requires...

This year has been really different for me in school 1. I'm in less pain than I have been in the 3 years I've been in college which is great because I've gone out more, been able to study longer without getting back and neck spasms and has finally translated into great success academically. 2...

With all the new machines out in the DA share of the market (Forced rotation and large throw), has anyone who is skilled using a rotary stopped using it? Or is the rotary still the fastest way of correcting even if you're using a DA to finish? The reason I ask is because the debate between the...

Can anyone compare these two for me? I know that white wax has abrasives in it plus chemical cleaners.

I was cleaning my bathroom yesterday and I've been coughing since. Maybe related, maybe not but it got me wondering if there are healthier options to certain degreasers. Are citrus-based products healthier than non citrus-based?

I was watching Garry Dean's video on the 2015 update of his version of the wash. Not really paying that much attention until he says, "Now you could be more careful than I am; I really don't mind swirls. I'm not a really big cry baby about swirls because - first of all - swirls are easy to...

Has anyone used 3D's waterspot remover they call Eraser? It's a gel and seems like it's to compete with CarPro Spotless. I haven't heard much about it and was wondering what you all think.

I know next to nothing about how cars run, but I know how to change my oil. My girlfriend says when she changes her oil she just pours it in and doesn't drain it. She said her oil is low and needed a funnel to just pour it in. That's not good is it?

This thread is going to be for myself and anyone else interested in my experience taking care of my car during college. I spent last week polishing and then coating my car with Cquartz. I have a 2010 Acura TSX in Premium White Pearl (thank god it's not black!). I don’t honestly know how...

I just moved into my apartment. Single apartment with a washer and dryer. The washer and dryer obviously aren't clean of lint and residue. What's the best way to clean these? I never use fabric softener - even on my clothes. So I want the washer and dryer to be clean for my towels and clothes...

So I taught my dad how to do rinseless washes. He's using the Garry Dean Method and I told him that when you do the wheels that you use COSTCO TOWELS. The yellow ones....... On paint we use blue towels. Well after showing him a few times I go inside anf eat lunch before I start correction on my...

I was one of the people selected to review Mother’s Waterless Wash & Wax (Mother’s WW for the rest of the review). I am currently looking for how I will be regularly washing my car once I go back to college. Waterless and rinseless washes are the two methods I am considering so I was excited to...
