Haven't been here for a while but here are some pics of a bike I did a few weeks ago. Wash followed with SMR then #26. The paint wasn't too bad 'cept the typical scratches where the tank meets the seat. Polished them out with some Scratch X, then followed up with 3M SMR, then #26. Lubed the...

I saw this link on another forum and thought I should post it here although I am sure that many of you have seen it before. The weather is getting nice right now and soon it will be BBQ season. Please be carefull guys. Unfortunately this is true.

I was at a store with my wife when she found a large (27" x 50") Microfiber bath towel for $20cdn. I tried to encourage her to buy it knowing full well that it would end up in my detailing supplies in a week or so. Unfortunately, she was on to my little scheme. :nixweiss

1) Just wondering what hours the Pro Detailers here work in a day? 2) Do you have a "quitting time"? (the time you estimate your last job of the evening will be completed by) 3) What time do you book your first job of the day?

Just kidding about that best in the world crack, I couldn't resist!:rolleyes: I was at the dollar store when I saw a rack of MF's. This definitely got my attention so I ran over knocking down any small children that stood in my way (like any true Autopian would). They had blue, green, yellow...

I finally got my rotary that I ordered from eBay. Its a Dewalt DW849. It came with two foam pads (medium compounding and finishing) Velcro and rubber backing plates, and instruction manual. The seller said it was only used once and I believe him because the thing looked almost brand new. I...

I am looking for some quality spray bottles but I am not willing to pay $5cdn each for them at my local home depot. Does anyone have any suggestions? I live near the US border so it doesn't matter if I have to buy from a US store.

I noticed that most professionals use different colored towels for different tasks. What colors do you use for which job?:nixweiss

I have read many posts for the past few months and I am grateful for all the information that you guys have posted (especially nydetailer). I even decided to take the plunge and I am now starting to accumulate some equipment and products to start my own detail business. I will be needing a...
