I just wanted to note how incredible this stuff is. I coated all the black plastic on my GMC Sierra 3 months ago, and this stuff still looks like it did from day one. Water beads up just as if it were waxed and does not spot. Anyone else love this stuff? Sent from my iPhone using...

Hi All, I’ve been using my GG6 for many years now, on my own vehicles, relatives, and occasionally to make a couple bucks. I’m not doing this as a business. With that said, I’ve been more apprehensive (or lazy) lately because I feel like the GG6 just takes so long to do a car. I’ve stuck with...

Just curious as to what people do for claiming taxes if they're operating a small side detailing business. Are you filing a schedule C as a business and claiming your expenses? Interested in what's needed when you head down the road of business cards and advertising vs polishing a buddy's car...

Entertaining story I thought I'd share. I used to use a nearby car wash with my old truck that had a drive through brush system (shame on me). Fast forward to my new purchase, a flat black GMC Sierra, I returned to this place and unfortunately let the drive through wash scratch the heck out of...

Hey all, thinking about doing mobile headlight restorations as a side hustle. Just looking for a few pointers. Tools/process: GG6 w/ 3" backing plate 3" sanding discs (800, 1200, 2000, 3000 grits) Orange foam pad w/ M105 compound Optilens coating I've restored my own headlights in the past...

Do you guys rinse your engine bays or do a wipe down detail? I recently used the under carriage wash wand at the car wash and it seemed to splatter a lot of dirt up into the engine bay of my truck. I've always been hesitant to use the hose under the hood, though I know plenty of folks that do...

Weird question, but I bought my truck new earlier this year and there seems to be some sort of grease all over the door jambs. I assume it's from the factory, maybe the hinges, and just gets smeared when I wipe down the jambs. Anyone got a good recommendation for cleaning this stuff off...

I've got a 2015 Black GMC Sierra. I'm curious if there's any good products to resist water spot deposits. After washing and drying the vehicle, tiny outlines of water spots are visible about 1mm in diameter that creates a hazed look in the paint. I did the whole truck with Ultimate Polish and...

Just want to share my experience with a really, really, rough shape Sierra. I'm a weekend warrior detailer; more of a hobby right now just experimenting with different products and honing my skills. A friend of mine just purchased this truck and was interested in improving the paint finish for...

So I picked up a cobra clay mitt the other day and was excited to use on my latest detail. It seemed to me that it didn't pick up as much contaminants as a traditional clay bar. This was a severely neglected 2500HD so maybe that had something to do with it. I "seasoned" the mitt by using it...

So I just picked up M205 to experiment with along with Pinnacle Souveran Liquid Wax. My current experience is with the Megs Ultimate line (compound, polish, liquid wax). I'll be doing a light correction with the M205, followed by Pinnacle Souveran on a black Mercedes C300. I've been very...

This weekend I decided to embark on my first paint correction with my new GG6. I stocked up with a variety of 5.5" and 4" LC flat foam pads (associated 5" and 3.5" BPs), and the whole meguiars ultimate line. (Compound, polish, and liquid wax). Vehicle: my semi-neglected 2010 Silverado...

I've got a 2010 Silverado that has some paint runs from the previous owner's attempted touch up. The color matches perfectly, and honestly you can't see it unless you know it's there. However, it does have some noticeable runs and a non-smooth texture. Therefore I was wondering if I could wet...
