    Mobile Generator Recommendations

    Any Honda GX series motor. The Honda 3000eu should cover all your needs. They are not cheap. I chose the honda eb3000.I really liked the smaller foot print and weight compared to the EU.The db are compatible at full throttle.

    Frontier 210 Detail

    No need to clay boat. Usually faded graphics always polish up nicely. For stainless steel I like Bar keepers freind from HD. Removes rust spots and cleans non skid fairly well.A mold inhibitor works great on jambs and below deck areas.Alot of automotive products will get the job done but marine...

    The works toilet bowl cleaner

    The majority of those products contain oxalic acid. Mary kate, bar keepers freind all work great for non-skid.For severely neglected boats muratic acid, T.S.P. and oxalic acid are a must to prep boat. I order oxalic acid in 50lb bags and mix my own batches depending on job.

    Vehicle Graphics - Option 1 or Option 2

    Also I would make phone# placement readable while rear doors are open if possible. I work with most doors open on vehicle and people driving by have to stop and ask for phone# sometimes.I'm guessing your mountains just need a little tweaking tohave your M show up better.

    Vehicle Graphics - Option 1 or Option 2

    I would drop the mountains. I think your company name is sufficient and to the point. The abbreviation was a little confusing. First thing that came to my mind when I saw logo was bottled water??? I would put phone # more at eye level and as big as possible. I think somewhere around phone #...

    Mobile Detailing: Small Pickup vs Cargo Van

    That is a nice set up. I couldn't/wouldn't have my equipment on display for someone to snag unless it's parked inside at night. They do make toppers for those reading Bodies if im not mistaken ?? I took some better pics for what I consider a compact efficient detailing set up. I have a 4...

    Mobile Detailing: Small Pickup vs Cargo Van

    Please excuse the mess it actually looks nice when cleaned up. I've had 4 different set up detailing vehicles and this has worked out the best for me. Parking is scarce most places I go to so trailer is not an option. I have a MITM 3500 psi belt drive unit with a AR pump/honda GX390 engine. The...

    Mobile Detailing: Small Pickup vs Cargo Van

    I would say go for a small pick up. Toyota/nissan with a 6 foot bed. The resale vaule is always there compared to cargo vans etc. I have a AR.E. dcu topper used off Cl.I did add some leaf buddies to help with extra weight.

    Car Wash Mats

    Seems like a lot of guys use sand socks around vehicle to contain water then vacuum and dump in grass . I'm in Florida and know locally this is there recommendations. A wet/dry vac seems to work fine without any foaming issues from soap . Definitely the cheapest route but would check local...

    Re: The NEW Flex PE8 Precision Rotary Polisher in ACTION! After second thoughts I will eventually get a PE-8. Will there be anything else detailing related offered by Flex this year ? Just to clarify was the PE-8 the big announcement for SEMA??

    Re: The NEW Flex PE8 Precision Rotary Polisher in ACTION! Hopefully Flex has a couple of other products being launched besides a small rotary polisher. I'm almost as excited about this as I was when they released their revolutionary swirl finding flashlight!

    Metro side kick

    Yes, I'm mobile now. I would love to use the blow gun but space is tight even for a small compressor. I was hoping to use a sidekick to free up some space.I have a master blaster now and happy with it. This is a second vehicle I'm putting together for smaller jobs.It will have a bed slide, small...

    Metro side kick

    Does anyone use the side kick instead of a compressor to blow out interiors? Would it be comparable to a 150psi compressor? I have a short bed tacoma and space is tight. My goal would be to eliminate the compressor and hose reel from my future set up.Is there another product that might work better?

    CarPro Reload

    I emailed Corey @CarPro about a month ago same question. He informed me the 5 liter bottle of new formula were being shipped as 5- 1 liter bottles. I have the older formula in use now for over a year. Haven't noticed any differences since I opened the bottle. It's been stored at room temperature...

    Building pressure washer

    I would consider a used Honda GX over a new predator motor. Just unbolt whatever mounted to motor and atatch pump. Also I would mount a presure washer hose reel to that wagon. Maybe solid rubber tires as the air ones seem to always go flat.

    Am I alone?

    I actually was admiring a BMW last week that looked almost flawless. I figured the owner or his detailer really knew what they were doing to achieve such a finish. It kinda motivated me to do a little extra on current customers car.I realized several hours later that I had just detailed that BMW...
