Just moved into a shop and it has those yellow sodium lights. I need something conducive to detailing. Thinking about the new LED lights, but not sure of the light temp (4K vs 5K) Or just save my money and go with the tried and true fluorescent. Opinions?

I have been using the LGM for about a year now and it has worked fine for what it is. I am now getting more and more interior jobs and want to cut my time down so I can do more vehicles per day. I have about $800 allocated for new equipment and I am not sure which is better for what we do. Both...

Wel, it's been a long time coming. Been saving and pinching until I could afford it. So, without further adieu, here are the pics....... car got stuck in the grass pulling the old trailer out, so that's why it's muddy..... Life is going to be SO much better now. Tomorrow I order the...

As the title says. I see all these rotary buffers that cost WAY more than the grinder counterparts. Why? Will a variable speed grinder work?

I did a search, and while there are a lot of posts on the subject, I can't find the info I am looking for. I am currently in a fixed location (my house) and lately I have been getting about 50% of my calls asking for mobile services, so I decided to expand. I have been looking for used trailers...

A little back story: As some of you may recall, I detailed my car a while back Well, my neighbor was impressed and asked if I could do his car. I did. My co-worker was also impressed and asked if I could do his truck, which I did. Now I am in trouble. They both told others and now I have...

I just came into possession of some rough Impala SS wheels and the clear coat was failing. I stripped off the old clear and now I am trying to polish the wheels. I am using the Mothers aluminum wheel polish (paste) with a mini power ball and it's not working as I expected (it's all shiny, but I...

Well, I received my order (SSII wax kit) a couple of weekends ago, but it's been raining here. Anyway, FINALLY got a chance to use the products for the first time. Here goes........ Before: notice all those gorgeous swirl marks??:mad: 2 orange LC pads, 1 white LC pad and 3 hours later, both...

As the title says, I just finished with my old bottle of Armor-all car wash and am looking for some new stuff. The price difference between brands is staggering:(. I was looking at the mequires gold class wash, but I don't know......

Just finished my first detail on my wife's car. Washed 3 times in the last 18 months and NEVER waxed!! ( I was overseas compliments of my Uncle Sam). Had to use the Advanced Swirl remover 3 times and the Advanced Finish Polish to fix the waterspot damage!! Sealed it all in with Mequires Gold...

Is there a correct/incorrect way to store the PC and pads? The pads, I ASSume are self explanitory, (not on the sides, dry, clean...) but the PC? With flex plate on or off? If on, plate up or down? On it's side? To some this is probably a "trivial" question, but to a "noob" that just dropped...

Hey guys, I just ordered a PC 7424 and I'm waiting for it to arrive. I also ordered (and recieved) my "pad pac" from AG. This is what I got: the twins (Pinacle advanced finishing polish and the Advanced swirl remover), the following 5.5" pads, 3 orange, 2 white, and 2 black (sorry GREY)...

Hi everybody. Been lurking around here for a week and a half and have already learned SOOO much! To begin, I have never owned a car worthy of washing, let alone detailing and waxing. Well, I now have a 96 Buick Roadmaster Wagon and I want it to look it's best. I have no doubt that will be...
