Hello there pros! I have a question for you. I sell various products to some of my local mobile guys and recently a mobile guy told me he was doing a trailer/toy hauler and needed to know a good polish for it. Do you treat a trailer or motorhome the same as you would a boat? Or is there...

During my 'every couple o'month' garage cleaning I came across these backing plates. They are threaded for the PC but are 6" across. The plastic wrap says "For 8" Pads" but, I have used these with my PC using 6.5" pads with no prob. I am asking $6.00 each for these and have three still in...

Well after trying several types of mitts (Lambswool,cotton,MF, imitation wool) I think I have found my favorite when it comes to using No Rinse. I just found these at Costco this week for $10.99. There are three in a pack and it comes with two large MF drying towels. (I'll probably relegate them...

Hey everyone. Can some of you give me your tips/tricks for getting around the nameplate and model emblems on vehicles? Nothing worse than a nice detail and a lousy white haze left around the various "badges". Thanks in advance for all your advice!

Every so often a company does right and should be rewarded for it so here goes. I bought a small 5 gal/5hp Shop-Vac to use in my part time detail business. Neeless to say, it has seen its fair share of house work too. All in all though, I have maybe 20-30 hours on the motor. Well today I was...

While I am not a big QD fan, since I haven't found many I care for, I have to admit that Sonus Acrylic Spritz is changing my perspective on that. Recently I used this product on my wife's 03' Expedition. I was curious to see how well it would work considering that I did not have a true acrylic...

Got a question for the audiophiles...been awhile since i sold stereos so things may have changed. I have bartered a deal with a local car stereo shop owner for some detail work in exchange for a Clarion CD player with small amp and sub. My question is, does Clarion make halfway decent stuff...

I am trying to clean out some of my excess product in my garage, so check out the pic and if something catches your eye...make me a fairly reasonable offer. All items are full or nearly full, some unopened. The bottle that is hard to see in the pic is #5. [/IMG]

The title is self explanatory. What else would she do, but conduct a science project on automotive carpet cleaners!! That's my girl! Well the stains, from left to right are: Coffee Grape juice Chocolate syrup Ketchup [/IMG] The chemicals that will be used are: Smart Carpet...

I would like to get input from my fellow Autopians regarding their experiences with leather cleaning and care products. I have been using the CG combo and have been VERY happy with it. Recently, however, I got a 10 year old car for my niece and the leather inside was somewhat brittle. The CG...

I'll be the first to admit that I do not know much when it comes to tires and wheels so I pose this question to whoever has information to share. I have an 06' Corolla that has the standard 15" tires. Will upsizing to a 16" or 17" tire/wheel combos have much effect on the gas mileage and or...

I lucked out and found several Porter Cable 7336SP kits for sale at a local hardware store. I only have a need for 1, so I am selling the rest. I am asking $105/each plus S/H. (Parcel post is prob cheapest since they are somewhat heavy) These kits are the ones that come with the sanding...

I was wanting to get some opinions on good plastic cleaner/protectant for Ford plastic. I just did a detail on a 2 year old Explorer and iIused Meg's #40 Cleaner Protectant spray and no matter how long I would let it set and then wipe off, I would get the splochy look to the plastic. If I...

Okay, the wife gave me the ultimatum. Get rid of stuff in the garage so she can open her car door!! SOOOOOOOO......I have a bunch of Meg's yellow pads, most used less than 10 times. They have all been used with Meg's products and many need a light cleaning. They are in great shape and the first...

I have 3 brand new, never used, Meg's W4006 wool cutting pads that I would like to sell. I am asking $10 each for them. I also have some Meg's backing plates for them as well and am asking $12 for them. Too much stuff, not enough room!! Shipping is whatever ACTUAL shipping costs are. No...
