Okay....I live in Baytown which is just southeast of Houston. I do not have a garage available. It seems like it's sunny every day and mid 90's and on the days when it's cloudy, it rains. Since all of the polishes and waxes say do not use in direct sunlight, I feel like I'm just screwed. If I go somewhere where there's shade I don't have electricity available for the PC. Any suggestions??? Thanks in advance for your help.
 
You can get a pop-up canopy for <$100. I have an EZ-Up that I got on season-end clearance, although I find it's difficult for one person to put up. There are tons of canopy threads on here, look around a bit.

time to invest , or save $ and invest , you can`t get pro results with a pc only....
you are limited in your options..

i said "PC only" , and i mean you can`t have pro result, when you lack in equipment.
that in case the OP try to generate income from detailing.
you have much more options and better results when you have more equipment , make sense?
 
So rotary, and four other machines? I think this guy, like me is just trying to do stuff himself and looking for a good way.

I think I need a Rotary with some wool pads to get where I want to go or trying the DA and som MF pads. I have comp Air at the house So Im good there.
 
Yes, I'm just doing my car and my wife's SUV. I have absolutely no desire to start a business detailing. However, from what I've read here I think I may make a trip over to Academy Sports to look at my canopy options.

While I agree you can achieve faster results with other DA's or rotaries I disagree that you can't use the PC to achieve professional results or to use to generate income. I used the PC from 06 to early this yr detailing professionally. Now that I have my 3401 I will use the PC for other things- the 3401 is definitely faster especially for paint that's severely trashed. But the PC with correct technique (and time) can tackle most jobs.... JMO and experience.
 
:iagree: I use my PC and generate a nice side income with it. I get great results and have happy customers. Technique, good gear and patience and a PC is just fine.
 
This nonsense about working in the sun is totally overrated. You would be shocked how much you can do in direct sunlight.

Is Direct Sunlight different from Heat?

Meaning the exterior temperature of the vehicle?
