    New Inexpensive Wheel Tool

    I found this sheepskin wheel cleaning tool for $5.99 at Pep Boys. It works great in part due to it conical shape. If you want a safe, soft tool for getting in between the spokes, this is one of the best tools I have found for the job.

    Black Ford F-150 XLT

    This time I worked on another pickup truck and boy do I have respect for the pro detailers. Detailing a truck really is a lot of square footage. I was exhausted when I finished. The only trouble I had was with the tires. He takes the truck to the auto wash and I think they are using some...

    Some thoughts on Zaino Z-P Fusion...

    Finally feel like I have enough experience to share some thoughts by way of a mini-review. Here are my impressions: 1. Overall: quality product, right up there with the SSR and 1Z polishes which are some of my favorites. 2. Little pricey at $12.95 per 8 ounces. Maybe $15 for 16...

    Zaino Fusion on F-150 paint transfer

    Used Z-PC Fusion to clean up a real bent fender on a black Ford F-150, yet another one of a neighbor's. We did a Zaino Z-7 wash, Z-18 clay, Z-PC and since we are limited on time we used Pinnacle Souveran as LSP. He'll bring his truck back maybe on Thursday and we will do the whole thing...

    What is your favorite under-rated product line?

    I think Eimann Fabrik may be a "sleeper" line...a quality line that gets little attention but has uniformly high quality products in effectiveness, ease of use. What lines do you feel are "sleepers"?

    Question on reputation system...

    Am I missing something or did the mods get started with extra rep points? I see a lot of green squares I'm not sure this is bad but I see value in everyone being equal...or is it because the mods just see more rep traffic from monitoring? Just trying to understand the new system a...

    DF Concours Magic Cube Review

    I got to play with the super squishable Magic Cube today from DF Towel. Considered to be a possible substitute of sorts for clay, this sponge like cube is very interesting. My results are that it did a good job of removing tree sap and mino dirt from my trunk lid when used with Z-6. It had a...
