Title suggestions for first e-book?

The first how-to book I self-published was titled "The Art of Polishing Paint by Mike Phillips" with a subtitle.

Since this is a series with the first on on the DA Polisher here's how this could work...


The Art of Polishing Paint by Mike Phillips
A User's Guide for the DA Polisher


Including,
  • Porter Cable 7424XP and all previous versions
  • Meguiar's G110v2 and all previous versions
  • Griot's Garage 6" Random Orbital Polisher
  • Shurhold Dual Action Polisher
  • Kestrel DAS-6
  • DAS-6 PRO
  • DeWALT DW443
And then Yancy would add some cool graphics.



Then the next one could be titled,

The Art of Polishing Paint by Mike Phillips
A User's Guide for the Rotary Buffer


and so on...


Again... just brainstorming at this point.

Using any type of machine to buff on thin automotive paints is a craft that is learned by learning the right techniques for using the tools, pads and products to get the desired results.

When you add the human elements of caring about what you're doing and your passion for doing the best work you can, then it moves from being a craft to an art form.

I know too many people that take the paint polishing so seriously that to not include their passion for the craft doesn't do them or their ability justice.


There's definitely a difference between people that buff out cars because they get paid to do it and people that buff out cars because they have a passion for the craft whether they get paid or not.


I think I touch on this topic in this article...


The Mindset of a Professional Detailer


And probably this article,


The story of 3 H's - Horrendous, Horror Story and Hack Detailers...

Hey Mike, "The Art of Polishing Paint", I read this years ago and it was one of the things that really got me into the "perfection" of polishing paint, instead of just "making it shine". I don't have a title for your e-book, I'm sure you will have a lot of help with that. I look forward to reading it as I have with the other e-book you wrote.
