Hey guys, I'm detailing a 2003 50th Anniversary Corvette for a customer of mine. He has etched in water spots on the hood. They didn't appear to bad, so I first tried a light polish and my PC. That didn't work, so I bumped up to a more aggressive compound. Still didn't work. Then I decided...

Do any of you use your equipment for supplemental income? On rainy days, I try to schedule some pressure cleaning jobs. I have access to a couple rigs I built for my dad's company (500 gallon trailers with 8GPM/4000 psi machines). It's nice extra money when I can't detail. But I was thinking...

I have been using a plain Jane appointment book for the last few years. I was wondering if anyone uses some sort of app that is maybe linked to their website or something where people can automatically sign up for an appointment from your website and it updates it on the app or something of...

A sonic blue coyote we detailed the other day. Had swirls in the paint but only REALLY bad on the hood and rear decklid. Had the hood repainted and the dealership just compounded I guess...no polish step. I used HD Cut with an orange LC pad, then Wolfgang TSR, Wolfgang Finish Glaze and...

I notice down here in South Florida, a lot of people don't protect their rubber trim and you get what appears to be a mold. It's almost a little on the reddish side. I've tried EVERYTHING to get rid of it and can't. Any suggestions?? This picture is a mild care, not very bad. But I've seen...

This boat has been sitting for 8, yes, 8 years. I found a tree with a 4" caliper trunk, and a ficus of all trees, with roots growing through everything. I had to rip out all the interior carpet and spent 5 hours just cutting out roots and removing them. I am detailing everything above the...

Ok, let me start off by saying that I have never received less than a 5-star review. I damaged a front bumper on an Acura ILX that was repainted (very thin, poor paint) and still have maintained this families vehicles as repeat customers. I like to think that I do exceptional work and I am OCD...

By this, I mean, how do you tell them that their paint is in really bad shape but in order to fix it, its going to cost a couple hundred dollars or more? Today I did a detail for a customer and because it was an old friends parents and I had nothing else for the day, I went to town. The car...

Not many detailers out there can say they detailed a car worth over a million dollars. This Maybach has been valued at around $1.4 million. It is a Knights Luxury Maybach with carbon fiber panels (not wrap!). The interior is carbon fiber as well. While the styling is not for everyone, you...

This was a fun car to work on. The contours in the thing are just simply amazing. I used HD adapt with an orange pad on my 7424, followed by wolfgangs swirl remover and lastly, a coat of Wolfgang Fuzion. The car looked awesome when I was finished. Very jealous I wasn't driving it home...

This is a 1967 GTO belonging to Miami Dolphin great Jason Taylor. This car had some pretty bad swirls from only being "washed" with detail spray. We used a 7424XP, WGs Total Swirl Remover on an orange pad, and finished with WG's Finishing Glaze. Then we applied a coat of WGs 3.0 Deep Gloss...

Ive been throwing around the idea of starting a fixed location in addition to my 2 mobile units. The guy who runs my other truck has been with me 2 years and does awesome work, and I have another guy that can run my 2nd truck. So I've been thinking about trying to find a fixed location. Maybe...

Been lurking around here awhile and decided that its time to sign up and start contributing and learning as well. I own Showtime Auto Detailing in South Florida and have been at it for about 8 years with a 4 year break in the middle to serve in the Marines. Love what I see here and hope y'all...

This is a 427 Shelby we detailed today. The car had medium to light swirls. The owner only used waterless wash systems on the car and it had taken its toll on the finish. We knocked it out using Wolfgang 3.0 Swirl remover followed by their Finish Glaze, 3.0 Deep Gloss Sealant, and then a coat...
