:dblthumb2::iagree: Being upfront (not saying you weren't at all) usually works the best. I just tell customers I can make the lights look a lot better than the look now and go with that, I am a fan of underspromising and over delivering

no difference. Hit em with compound first. If that isn't working step up to wet sand then compound then polish. Biggest trick is not overheating the lense and melting the plastic if your using a rotoray. I like to use 3in pads for the fog lights and 3m compound

Well its factory applied, but they doesn't sounds like a solid thing. I feel the same way about using acetone. Seems spooky lol.

Toyota still uses SS on white fir some reason. I thought acetone but didn't know if it would be ok on paint

So I had a customer tell me his brother super glued his mirror on the exterior of his car but spilled a bunch of it on his paint. It a white 2008 Toyota singly stage paint. It's been on there for months. I tried my solventx but it didn't rich it. Any ideas how to get it off?Feed back please

I used it and it left a ton of micro marring. I like the towel better. Granted its a lot faster with the da but it just didn't finish right. I was doing it on a white truck too!

My advice, Don't start up a detail business if you have a solid paying job now. My second advice is don't spend $20,000 on detailing supplies to start, that is just crazy. Look at Craigslist. There are SO SO SO many people who just like you, wanted to start up a detail business and go full time...

A guy at the body shop used mineral spirts on a stain on his honda. He did it right in front of me. It was after I steamed and extracted his seats and these red stains wouldn't come up. Holy crap it actually worked. I was beyond scared and couldn't believe it. Sufice to say, try it with caution...

Why were you freaked out to go where the DEAD bodies go? My wife is the same way. She won't have anything to do with death stuff. She hates graveyards and was losing her mind when we went back to upstate New York with all the old graveyards. I like the idea of cleaning headstones. It actaully...

Dude, we live in So Cal. Its like the Mecca of rich people with $100,000 rides that are too cheap to pay anyone to wash their car and don't have time between their starbucks and cell phone calls and think that using the drive through car was at the local Shell gas station is getting a car wash...

I use a generator set up and I agree with the noise factor but when I looked into invertor set ups to run a Master Blaster, Steamer, Mytee Spyder, ect... it cost more than a freekin generator. I do wash/detail for a local fish company and in their van they have a invertor set up. Its pretty...

I have the CR set up and its a real life saver especailly when doing RV's and black cars/trucks. I don't use it all the time because of cost but when I have a brand new black Cad Escalade and have to wash it in the sun, you be your sweet bippy I'm busting out the CR system.

Try 3M Finsh it Compound and Polish if you wanna try something new. I love it and use it all the time now. I love it way better than M105. Granted, I couldn't find the sweet spot for M105 and was spending too much time cleaning it up vs getting great results with 3M Comp and cleaning up super...

They pay you $140 a week to wash their cars? Thats $7280/yr for car washing?!?! Damn Anthony thats awesome. I know you've gotten flack for the dry wash and I don't really know why. What you chose to do is your business and obviously its working for you. What exactly is a dry wash? Is it like a...

Ozone generator is usually the surefire way. I usually will clean everything like crazy with a degreaser. I had one chevy 1500 that the guy smoke 3 packs a day in it with the windows barley down. The amount of tobacco on the doors and plastic trim was unlike anything I have ever seen. I can't...

You can try adding some polish in the mix when you apply the poliseal. Meaning do 3 dots of poli and 1 dot of polish to get more correction. Its worked for me before. You can adjust the volume of polish until you find the right mixture that works for you. Poli seal is a great "cleaner" but a...

Awesome work bud! It looks beyond perfect. How did you do the vents on the front hood?

The way I started was I found someone that worked in the business center and spent more time than I needed doing a detail for them. It gave me exposure. After I did the detail, I would come and wash their car every week. That way I got recognition and people started giving me keys to wash their...

I think what might have happened is you didn't get off all of the polishing oils and that was what was covering the defects. It sounds like you never fulled removed the defects. Im just guessing. WGFG won't cover up defects. Its not a real glaze. I know, strange that they call it a glaze. IME...
