    Took my daughter out for youth waterfowl day here in NH. She got busy with the 12 gauge. Proud dad.

    Griots Surface Prep Pad Saved the Day

    I had a client come in last week for daytime drop-off and returned 2 hours later without warning and needed the car back immediately for a work emergency. I had finished the interior and washed the outside. I wanted to get the full detail in and not lose any money so I had to think fast. I...

    I must be doing something serious wrong. lol

    Strip it again. WDGPS and leave it. Every layer is a possibility for the failure to bond of the next product you apply.

    Aggessive pad / Aggressive polish relationship?

    Multiple test spots are your friend. You could start with a white polishing pad and 3D One, evaluate, step up to an orange cutting pad and then maybe to a foamed purple wool pad. I have had success with compounds on polishing pads where I wanted to "back into" what was actually needed. But be...

    cleaning pads after using Sonax EX 04-06

    I do the same. Grab an empty bucket and rest the rotary on the lip. Most sling stays inside the bucket. Word of caution I think the high rpms' stretch the pad = reduced lifespan.

    PM Coating Question from 627PCFan

    First go with Gyeon Pure. At first, I wasn't impressed but then I remembered my truck usually has 3D Speed topped with Collonite 845 or 915 so it wasn't a big "jump" but it's candy alright. 2 hours of cleaning/decon. 4 hours of polishing with Menz 3500 1.5 hours of coating time Looks great. I...

    So, what is the deal with Meguiar's D2002 (Iron Removing Spray "Clay")

    FWIW, Im on bottle number 2 but Im replacing it with Megs Iron and Wheel Decon. I do like the product but for me it was a duplicate product in my line. I will say it makes white pop and it does a better job of releasing other contaminates, more so than IWD.

    Trim Safe Wax for Polisher application

    I've been using Collonite 845 as my go-to machine applied wax for clients who don't go for a AIO package. Are there any other non-staining trim staining waxes that can be zapped on a car with a polisher? I took a look at 3D Cherry wax but that stains.....

    Your go to compound for one step and 2 step?

    This is my main lineup. I also use 3D one on occasion, just the damn wipe off. I dont keep a wide variety of products, I stick what works well on a variety of vehicles, Menzerna nails it. I

    Odd requests

    I got another odd quote request today I thought I would share. A gentleman wanted “his side” of the car detailed……only his side……. Don’t drag me into whatever domestic vehicle dispute you got brewing :laughing: what other weird requests have you guys had?

    Other hobbies or past times outside of detailing

    For me, goose and duck hunting, followed by fishing. Hate Turkeys, lost too many years of my life trying to bag one of those dinosaurs.

    Sealant that will not stain trim

    I've done at least 15 vehicles with WGDPS and a polisher, straight Mike Phillips AIO style, everything gets a pad and product and I have never had any issues with trim on any of those vehicles. Did I just get lucky?
