    Heavy Duty handheld Vac

    This ? (if I can post this?) Amazon.com Actually was getting ready to order and found the Oreck handheld for $20 less and not many issues. I will try it. There were some negatives about the redesign of the Hoover but I will try it if this doesn't work. Thx again for the responses.

    Heavy Duty handheld Vac

    Does one exist ? I detail for $ and need something for the carpeted section of truck rigs as well as upholstery/carpet in vehicles. I have a Ridgid 6 hp shop vac that's really good, but not carrying that obviously. It can be corded/cordless but it has to be portable and nearly commercial grade...

    Do you wash PFM or similar drying towels after only 1 use

    Thx for all the responses. I should have mentioned that I have a small detailing business, therefore a little risk in changing a process. Would you be ok if you paid $200-300 for a detail and your car was dried with a "used" drying towel ? Possibly. It's getting clayed, compounded. and...

    The obvious answer is yes but if you're drying a just-washed car the thought does occur about washing less often..... but I really can't take a chance. Just wonder if anyone else does more than 1 "drying" before washing. Yes I use Rags to Riches detergent and only dry on low settings. Heat...

    Worth the upgrade to Griots G9?

    I understand this is a year old+ thread. Just had a polisher quit on me.... after 100+ cars, 8 years. I got my $ worth. The manufacturer shall remain nameless, HF. Anyway, I just spoke with Craig @ Griot's and after asking questions about the G9 I found out it WILL NOT accept smaller than a 5...

    Rag Company Dry Me A River not drying anymore...

    Just bought the Liquid8r from TRC. $20 and it works so well there are no other drying aids needed now. I use Rags to Riches soap exclusively for the expensive MF's. As far as customer service, they have been superb. Rebecca answered endless questions about MF care and drying aids. She has...

    Drying Towel Scratches

    Thank you for info.. I just got off phone with Rebecca @ TRC. Her knowledge and willingness to share it is first rate. She's a great help and has a great attitude. She said I would likely be very happy the Liqid8r. She helped me so much w MF towels that I'm going to give it a shot.

    Anyone still use 845?

    That's how I feel about it.....as far as shine, longevity, ez to apply/remove.... and yes, a constant need to keep it semi-liquid at least.

    Anyone still use 845?

    For me, it adds several additional months of protection to a 1 step... without adding much more time. Maybe there's a better option, but it works really well..... a little picky to use, turning the solid into paste, but works very well.
