The one thing that I have enjoyed about DC is how well its run, and the respect all the members have for each other. Over the years that I have posted here, you really get to know the members, their lives, families and such. That's the cool part to me. A couple of other car forums that I post...

Anyone know where I can find a distributor for this product? The Harley shop that I work with, fell in love with it when I did details for them. Thanks:D

Its about the time of the year that my detailing biz starts to fall off, just as well for me, I did well over the amount of cars and bikes this year than many of my previous years. I have a few things lined up in the coming month, but after that I will not look for any more biz as the weather...

I've read this word a few times and it makes me laugh. I think this one goes a long with paint jeweling :rofl:rofl Some of the new words that have popped up in forums referring to paint / detailing are funny to me!

Anyone ding this? I have tried on some of the cycles I've been working on, but don't really see a huge difference from just one cost. I need to try this on a car so I can get a better feel for it any layering it?

After reading about this product and not being able to find it locally, I found some a Kragens recently. Turns out in was there the whole time, but stocked in the degreaser area. Anyway I used it on the motorcycles that I have been working on latley, and it works like a charm, especially the...

I just ran an add on Facebook for aluminum polishing. It occurred to me in looking at all the other ad's that no one offered this as a service. just thought that I would throw that out to anyone who is looking to pickup additional detail work.

I read on a few other car / detail forums, and the one thing that I see with quite a few posters, is they are WAY proud of the paint correction. In a lot of cases the work is very impressive However what about the over all cleaning and conditioning of the car? In the years that I have...

I'm wondering if anyone has removed clear coat from Aluminum? I was working on a older Harley that had parts where the clear had come off and other parts where it wasn't I was able to remove quite a bit of it, threw polishing with a cotton bob and wool pad but that was very slow, there has...

I was working on a PT Cruiser yesterday, while using the rotary I hit the plastic coated chrome trim and burned the plastic in a small area. I've never had that happen, so it took me by surprise. I was able to get the burned part off but you could still see the area. I pointed it out to the...

I run a CL ad every week and so far have picked up a few jobs. Not a lot but its free and takes little to no effort to keep posting once a week. What I enjoy is reading the other ads being posted by local detailers. My grammar and spelling skills may not be the best, but I take the time to read...
