    Form for Amateur Detailer Checklist – good idea, bad idea or already exists?

    Hi Mike, Thanks for the encouragement, the sound of crickets and the lack of posts had me thinking I was way off base. I bought your e-book and I am reading it now which is a huge help. I will start with an exterior ‘checklist’ and then go from there. Worst case is I will learn some more tips...

    Looking for assistance for options to replace Zaino's

    Thanks for the tip on more pads. I will do that. If I need more 'cut' then the SF4500, I was thinking that the WG AIO would provide that in one step. From a post from Mike Phillips - the WG AIO is rated as a Category #3 - Medium Cleaning...

    Form for Amateur Detailer Checklist – good idea, bad idea or already exists?

    Hi Mike, et al., I am new to the forum and have been very impressed with all the posts and people sharing information and experiences. I was wondering if you think it would be good to develop a checklist of products that an amateur detailer would need to help us “newbies” slowly build up our...

    DP Turbo Car Dryer Giveaway!

    As most people have stated the one I have noticed are the new banner and new logo. The banner states autogeekOnline.net so no change on the domain name (*.com). Thanks - good fun in having these draws!

    Looking for assistance for options to replace Zaino's

    This is a great forum, thanks for everyone’s help. I have been reading the posts and asking a few questions about AIO products. Based on the input people have provided to this post and in reading others my “order to be” looks like: 1) Mike Phillips’ The Complete Guide to a Show Car Shine...

    Looking for assistance for options to replace Zaino's

    Again thanks for the advice. I saw a post about Wolgang Uber All in One which is interesting as it appears to remove a step in the process. My question / concern is how abrasive it is and can you use this every 6 months for a few years without removing too much clearcoat? I think I would still...

    Looking for assistance for options to replace Zaino's

    My routine is to use Dawn to strip the old product, clay the car, wash it again, then use Z5, then Z2 (both with zfx) and top with Z-CS. The finish is good but it is now clear to me I need to use a DA and a polish to get the prep work right. For the prep work I am leaning to the Wolfgang...

    Looking for assistance for options to replace Zaino's

    For the last several years I have been using the full suite of Zaino’s on our cars and would like to try a different set of products. I am looking to get some opinions on what I should use. I will also be purchasing a DA that is reasonable in price for a hobbyist (leaning towards the Griots...
