    what's the last car care/detailing video you've just watched?

    Oh, so they were trying to win some free prize?[emoji2359] And you’re right, I didn’t watch the whole video, you’ve got a stronger gut than I do, because I had about all I could handle rather quickly and had to bail out. Lol. Thx for explaining that twice. I understand now.

    Detailing lesson to be learned here?

    The craziest thing is I’ve sent him the link to Americas Tire Company and the price for a brand new tire is only $75. How do you not get off your butt and take care of that already? This is me telling my brother to tell him to get new tires because he won’t listen to me. Look at the date, 6...

    what's the last car care/detailing video you've just watched?

    Yea but what kind of tool decides to chime in with the same information that the previous 40 people have just provided? That used to happen on this forum back in the days, some people would parrot what 1-2 guys had already said and I would always find it a bit annoying. That and the people...

    Detailing lesson to be learned here?

    No dudes, that tire looks like it belongs in F-1. Also, that picture was taken 3 months ago and he puts around 3-4k miles on his car every month.

    Is it normal dust & dirt? Or hazing that was created by maybe using the wrong cleaning product on it? Are you trying to clean it? Or correct a defect?

    Detailing lesson to be learned here?

    No wash in 6 months after you coated it is complete neglect. That sucks. And speaking of neglect, and this alone has made me even touching my nephews car almost impossible recently. It’s his tires. I’ve been telling him for almost 5 months to replace this tire. I’ve literally nicknamed him F-1...

    what's the last car care/detailing video you've just watched?

    Yup, I listened to that Sheepstar video in its entirety yesterday when Klasse Act posted it. I didn’t see it the 1st time it was posted by Snp. And I don’t keep up with most of the cults videos, but after the Sheepstar vid. and watching this recent Chelsea vid I couldn’t help but notice how...

    what's the last car care/detailing video you've just watched?

    Oh btw, that dude Josh is now advocating foaming a car 3x during a wash on his latest video. Yes, 3x. Once to start, then rinse, then foam again, contact wash with mitts, then foam Again, and finally rinse, then dry using his drying aid. So salesman Yvan has fooled the masses into believing...

    Best glass cleaner for interior windshield?

    That’s actually my current combo. I like the Chemical Guys Gray Matter Waffle Weaves. Best ones I’ve found for glass. 2 towel method. And I agree, it’s pretty nice how the foam clings to the glass and also it doesn’t over wet the glass. Interesting, I might consider the McKee’s Glass...

    what's the last car care/detailing video you've just watched?

    I just witnessed probably the most ridiculous thing I’ve seen in a long time… It’s harmless, but boy is it ridiculous and just goes to show the magnitude of fanboyism that can be seen sometimes. Ok so that girl Chelsea made a video reviewing Quiver car shampoo, and of course it’s the greatest...

    Detailing lesson to be learned here?

    I read the 1st 2 sentences of your post and said to myself “no, no, but he’s my nephew” But then I read the rest, and you make complete sense, what you said is true to the T. That’s exactly how it is.[emoji18]

    what's the last car care/detailing video you've just watched?

    There’s 2 things I hate in this world. Liars & thieves. And if you go around ripping other peoples names off, and I completely agree, piggybacking off of their years of efforts to build up that name and just blatantly steal it, that’s a B#%^* move as far as I’m concerned, and I cannot respect or...

    Decon wash? Help a newbie

    Meanwhile I dream of having a garage to my own, where I can detail in peace away from direct sunlight, away from nosy neighbors, with the freedom to detail a vehicle at any time of the day or night, with a little fridge full of cold beverages.. Ahh, my dream.[emoji41]lol. I guess it’s not...

    Decon wash? Help a newbie

    I never considered that, but it’s totally plausible. Another thing, and I’m sure I’m not the only one but I’m kinda obsessed with ensuring the surface remains clean and free of debris/bugs/etc. while I’m polishing. You’ll see me constantly having to take 1 hand off the polisher to swat things...

    Detailing lesson to be learned here?

    I detailed the interior of my nephews Camry not too long ago as a freebie because it was so disgusting that I couldn’t stand it anymore.. The passenger side had a sticky mess from soda spilling all over the carpet so I gave it quick extraction, it wasn’t perfect, but it was clean and a hell of...

    Decon wash? Help a newbie

    Exactly. It’s almost like driving a car with under inflated tires and worrying about MPG. Or riding a bike with under inflated tires and wondering why you’re getting so tired.. Those contaminants make for an uphill battle in every way.

    Best glass cleaner for interior windshield?

    Cleaning the inside of a windshield can sometimes be a task that I almost prefer to skip if and when it’s possible, but that’s not a good habit, in fact it’s a terrible habit when you’re dealing with customers vehicles because as we all know imperfections in glass aren’t always visible under...

    What did you do today, in regards to detailing?

    I lost a Gloss Pad while polishing a customers truck today… It’s amazing, and I guess the man upstairs has granted me a bit of sheer luck a few of times now, because I don’t fully know how I’ve somehow survived this happening more than a couple of times now and somehow came out of it...

    Decon wash? Help a newbie

    Yup. Many years ago when I 1st got back into detailing I attended the classes at Meguiars and that’s 1 of the questions I asked Mike Stoops. He described swirls & scratches as below surface defects and contamination as above surface defects or something along those lines [if I’m wrong it’s...
