A wholesale customer called and said they have a customer who applied wax to a SSR and put it on too thickly and couldn't get it off. They then called me to remove the wax. I haven't seen the car and won't see it until that day and they want an estimate for the removal and reapplication of wax...

My in-laws just purchased a new Lexus ES350 and i'd like to help them keep it clean. They are looking for someone that can come to their house, and wash the car every month, wax every 3 months, and detail once a year. Let me know if you know anyone that might be able to help them out. Thanks...

I'm looking for some pointers as the best way to clean and copndition undealed leather. Would you use your normal routine as you would with top coated leather? And then condition with something like Lexol or would you go a completely different route? I've only experienced it once, and...

I'm looking at picking up a few embroidered golf shirts and am looking for where you all buy them? I could always just search google, but not sure of the quality I might find. I want to get collared 2-3 button polo/golf shirts in decent quality that can be embroidered with my company logo...

I'm planning on trying some D151 on a detail I have planned for next week. It is a black Impala SS. I haven't used D151 yet, just got my first gallon of it and was hoping I could get some pointers on it before I try it out. I used it on a scrap black hood that I have with a PC and LC white...
