2004 CLK 55 AMG Nano gloved Gyeon Tar Gyeon Iron Hybrid polish (Menzerna 2500 on Lake Country Orange, Menzerna 400 on Lake Country Orange for RIDs) Gyeon Prep Gyeon Pure coating

Working on a 2017 Chevrolet Tahoe LTZ. Two stage correction (some three stage spot correction) Wheel off clean/decon/polish/coating Coating Interior Deep Clean Started yesterday, more to do today and tomorrow. Client is out of town for the long weekend, so I actually have the luxury of...

Awesome, thank you!

Hello all - I am getting back into detailing after returning from a 2 year Korea tour. I ordered some new pads before I left and hardly used them, and now I can't remember which are which. I know they're all Lake Country, but digging through their website hasn't helped me. The ones in front are...

Welcome! Currently in Augusta, GA but claim Mankato, MN as home. Will be headed there in a week or so.

I use the NanoSkin AutoScrub Fine Wash Mitt with NanoSkin Glide. LOVE IT. I put it up there with Rinseless Washes in the "why on God's green earth did I wait so long to buy this?" product category. I don't know that I'll ever buy a coarser one, as the Fine seems to do a good enough job on all...

I'm a fan of Meguiar's D114 Rinse Free Express Wash. Main reason being the lack of gloss enhancers/wax. I deal with a lot of coated vehicles, and the fact that I'm not putting a substandard "wax" on top of the coating makes me happy.

Paints with clearcoat don't oxidize. Without seeing a photo, you're most likely describing clearcoat failure which can't be fixed by polishing. Honda and Mitsubishi have had very crummy clearcoat for the past decade, and clearcoat failure is very common. Some good reading by our own Mike...

Here's a blog article I just finished about coatings: https://revitalizeautospa.squarespace.com/blog/2015/11/30/products-ceramic-coatings

I often get questions about what products clients should use to maintain their vehicle after it's detailed. Lately I've been thinking about doing a take home basket with small-ish bottles of product - shampoo, tire dressing, etc. Is anyone doing this, and if so, how is it working out?

Unfortunately I don't think there's an easy answer - there are too many variables. What color is the paint? How hard is the clear? How deep are and prevelant are the swirls? How deep are the RIDS? An aggressive compound\pad combination on dark, soft paint may get 100% of the swirls out, but...

Welcome to AutoGeek! Being a fellow Northerner (I claim Minnesota as home), I empathize with trying to keep it clean. I would look into applying a coating or having a reputable dealer do one, and also rinseless\waterless washes for maintaining during the winter months.

Can't link to a competitor's site, but I typically use the ATLASTA soft-tip detailing brush. It's actually my favorite all-around brush, and have two of them - one for interiors, one for wheels.

Thanks. Last site was much busier, lots of stock photography all over the place.

So I got tired of messing with Wix. I switched to the same company we use for our photography business, and spent the past two days getting things looking decent. Any thoughts? https://revitalizeautospa.squarespace.com

Thanks all! I was seriously looking at the AMG SLK and SL series as well, but really wanted a 2+2.

So here's the 2007 M6 I picked up this past Tuesday. It came with some crummy chrome rims that I rather despise - wasn't able to get the flaking chrome sanded off as well as I wanted, but the Plastidip at least helps somewhat. 48,000 miles, which is pretty low for a 2007. Options: HUD, Comfort...

I moved to a different unit a few months ago, and my work weeks are back up to 90+ hours - not much time for detailing. Yesterday the wife and I worked a 2013 black Chevy Tahoe - this thing was TRASHED. Unfortunately it was raining all morning, so I don't have any photos of condition as it came...

Thanks man. The 3" pads are great for cars and trucks too, you just have to be careful because it's a lot easier to burn through paint with them. Thanks! Loving Menzerna. Appreciate it!

Photos of the damage? Good chance you'll need a machine.
