I have used CG Gloss Workz quite a few times now and have not really found a way to end streaking. I know some like Mike have had great success with this product. It has a very nice smell (smells almost identical to CG Speed Wipe) so fun to use. It seems to be a fine cleaner but in many ways...

I always had a concern about using the Master Blaster where there was water on the ground since it does run off something called electricity. The Master Blaster also lacks some mobility since it does not have swivel wheels. The primary goal was to keep the MB and the electrical connections...

Lake County had given the new hybrid pads to a number of detailers but have not seen a whole lot of reviews. The pricing is similar to the CCS and HT but still more than the flat pads so at least that is not a negative.

I picked up the smaller jar of Blackfire Midnight Sun during the last AG sale. I finally applied it this past weekend. I have not had a chance to take pics. Car/paint: Lincoln MKZ Dark Blue Pearl Metallic (my DD so use many on this) This was applied over 1 week old Menz. Power Lock Usage...

Looking for a nice leather brush, I see these: Natural Horse Hair $9.99 Tampico bristles, $3.99 Other suggestions?

Would these have about the same durability? For detailers, WG has an Instant Detaler and Blackfire has the Midnight Sun Instant detailer as well.

Adventures in Detailing Here are some mini-reviews from the last couple weeks. I will work on some more detailed reviews later for some. Lake Country Super Soft White Pad I picked two up from Lake Country's Eric at Detail Fest. The pad is a composite red foam base with the white face (like...

I had originally picked up a small PL sample in trade and used it on 3 different rides. It applied fairly easily (just not the easiest to spread) but did dust somewhat upon removal. These were applied by machine. It seemed to haze quite quickly like what some polycharged products do as you...

I need to combine two plastic tarps into one larger one and want to bond them together (overlapping lap joint). When I go down to the hardware there are quite a few different types of adhesives so wondering which one to select. I obviously need something that is flexible, has some...

Todd, I enjoyed your presentation on high end detailing. I thought some of the discussion was lively and could have been more if given time.

I did an ONR wash in the garage a couple weeks ago and noticed the difference in lighting in the "after" pictures. It was around 50 to 55 F in the garage with lights warmed up, etc. I have 4 fixtures (2 tubes each) in the ceiling - 2 banks in front half, 2 nearest garage door. There is a floor...

Now that AG has picked up Chemical Guys I know I will be able to get some at Detail Fest but wondering if one could order from ACC at Detail Fest if there was some reason (product not sold by AG). I am working on a list of things to pick up (putting off any new orders at the moment) so just...

What do you think your biggest 2012 single item detailing purchase will be? The title says it all. I really want to get an electric power washer. I still have doubts about the x series karchers (reports they still fall over, break connections, some leakages but at least no report of motor...

I was wondering what specific aspect of the traditional 2 bucket wash makes it viewed as safer than a rinseless wash using ONR or DP's product or even a waterless wash. It seems on fairly clean paint the majority opinion is that the are equally as safe using good practice techniques thus pure...
