    need advices please (lack of technique or wrong combo)

    I would go with a polishing/light cutting pad first and then maybe step up to a more aggressive pad if it's necessary. Pictures would help anyone assess the situation a bit better. Regarding your physical ability to work on cars is going to be a judgement call for yourself. I think anyone...

    need advices please (lack of technique or wrong combo)

    Not sure what kind of condition your arm is in but I would advise to be smart about it. The fact that you are injured, I would take every precaution in not getting hurt any further. It may not be worth it over car paint. With that out of the way, I would always do a test area starting with the...

    Heard the LHR12 is a similar sized DA with more power and smoother compared to the current options we have at the moment. Hope we get more info soon.

    Having a hard time trying to decide, Rupes 21 or 3401...?

    When I first started detailing 8 years ago I had purchased a PC 7336 (i think that was the model). Tried it and at that moment I was not a big fan of that dual action polishers, really didn't like it at all. Don't remember having to many options to choose from. Went to a finishing store and...

    Having a hard time trying to decide, Rupes 21 or 3401...?

    I have been leaning towards the 3401 but have been hearing about so many people switching over to the Rupes and all this "hype" with it which is giving me second thoughts. Are we sure there will be new polisher being introduced from Rupes? How about Flex, anything new? Chris

    I recently decided to get back into detailing and pursue it as a business again. With the new technology and innovation this day and age I have been having more difficulties deciding on equipment more than ever. I love my rotary and have years of experience with it. I feel like I am missing out...

    Need help choosing a drill

    Wow I must be tired, I miss read your entire post. I'd personally go with a DeWalt Corded with the side handle. Almost all corded name brand drill will have the power to throw you off a ladder. Should be in the price of $60-150, and make sure you look at the specs with rpm.

    Need help choosing a drill

    I've had the pleasure using almost every brand of drills and other power tools in my line of work and hobbies. You could never go wrong with any of the brands mentioned above. You could try the more compact battery drills. I personally like the larger weight of 18v/20v drills when I work on...

    Greetings to all!

    It's been awhile since i've been in the detailing scene. Dusted off the tools and getting back into it full force. Surprised how much technology has advanced in such a short period of time (5 Years?). Feels like everything has changed and so many options now. Coming from the SF Bay Area and...
