Do these start peeling off the foam after the first or second use like the regular buff and shine junk mf pads?

a couple pics always help.

search airway buffing wheel if you have a rotary buffer and order a couple of them. Usually i would start with a green wheel and brown bar of compound and move on to a white wheel with a green compound bar. if you want it perfect then you can go to a da polisher with something ultra fine like...

turbo nozzle on a pressure washer should get it (i have gotten many lbs of bonded concrete to release from bedliner with the turbo) or try soaking it in paint remover (from any paint store) then pressure wash.

When i was setting mine up i went with 100k single vehicle value (with a max of 1 million total value) since it is rare i get anything over 90k in value. But when going over the paperwork i saw that if i am ever off by more than 10% in vehicle value (above my insured value) i will not be...

goo gone spray gel is nice as you can spray it on and let it dwell and it doesn't run off as fast. I have mixed the goo gone gel 50/50 with goof off and got a stronger product with a bit of thickness left so it will stay where it is sprayed and soften things up well.

that is about right for a wash and 1 step on an RV but i don't do boats so i am not sure on that.

By hand i would think you are not getting the swirls out in any reasonable amount of time. So, i would just get s decent glaze ( i have used 3d's ultra glaze and it corrects well and fills as well with a da so you will not really get the correcting by hand but the fillers last a few months and...

try clay and if that doesn't do it try a polish like m205.

For the last month i have been doing 1-2 dealer trucks a week which threw my normal numbers way out of wack since the trucks i am getting generally are trade ins from contractors that have not touched them cleaning wise since the lease date (1-4 years) and are closer to restoration jobs than...

If it turns out to be really soft i would try searching "finishing with H205 from Kevin Brown" it is a great way to finish really soft paint with water mixed with m205 and a soft pad. Seems like a great thing to try when having a really tough time finishing a paint.

I have done quite a few of these and always in the worst condition imaginable as i get them from dealer trade ins from contractors. They range from 4-15hrs with the gross ones being 5ish hours and the awful ones that need major scratch removal and every square inch on the interior treated like...

i too like the idea just would have to get a better look at the shop size and run numbers on how many cars can fit in while leaving a workable space and see if that would be enough to justify the lease price compared to the others i am considering. Never thought about the liability of picking...

Just curious if anyone has tried taking the detail your car while you (shop, travel, or whatever will have someone gone for a few hours to a few days). I just saw a lease space open up in the airport area where i live (the airport is only 5-7min from the middle of town so spot is decent even...

thanks for the replies. I might try the recording thing to see where i am losing efficiency as i have been using a timer for each step to see what it takes on average for each sized vehicle. But seeing others times makes me not feel to bad as many are more and some are less than i am currently...

it is strange, my browser isn't showing the pictures of the car for some reason. I will try refreshing it in the morning and maybe they will be here.

i have the rug dr portable and it works really well, with it i use a good commercial carpet cleaner i got from a local cleaning supply store. I also use folex and chemical guys lightning carpet cleaner to treat stains i dont get with the regular solution. Last week i bought a mc1375 steamer...

Hey, i am just curious what all of you are taking on average to do a typical detail (wash, clay, seal or 1 step polish/wax, interior detailed vac, minor stain removal, hard surface cleaning). I am just curious because of seeing what some have posted price wise and knowing that my average detail...

So i bought a swirl buster kit with some pads and a Porter Cable DA from Eshine.ca (an Canadian autogeek re-seller). I have got maybe 8-12 cars out of it over the last 2 months and it started smoking and siezed up. I phoned Eshine who said "we don't offer a warranty on any of our items sorry...

is anyone out there using this product? been doing some searching and there is not much out there that i can find.
