My wife, who loves shopping malls...and me, who loves to go to new places went on their website to see where it was located compared to us. I checked their address and here...

    I read....

    ....somewhere (can't remember where), but a german "detailer" uses soft foam applicators to apply wax, and then uses different soft foam applicators to remove the wax to prevent scratches. I guess there is some good theories here, and I suppose it works, but I would have to think that you would...

    Hd Uno

    I got my HD UNO last Friday, so I decided to try it out over the weekend. When it arrived, the delivery box was very heavy duty, and sealed tight. Upon opening the box, I noticed that everything was packaged very nicely inside the box. Each bottle of HD UNO was wrapped tightly. I noticed that...

    Wet Sanding

    About 2 years ago, I took my molded mud flaps off my Nissan Titan to make room for my lift and 35" tires. The problem lies herein...they are the factory mudflaps, and from driving it for about 2 years with them on, you can see an outline scratch of where the mudflaps were positioned. Although...

    Trying new products

    I thought I would try some new products. I ordered HD Uno, CG EZ Creme Glaze, Blackfire Wet Diamond and CG Butter Wet Wax. I figured a good way to sample these is to use them all in combination with each other and see what results I get. When they come in and get a chance to detail my car for...

    Hd Uno

    I was thinking about giving this product line a try. I have a Flex, but don't care for it too much. I mainly use my DeWalt rotary and my PC, however, and I know this may sound like a dumb question, but all the reviews I see on this product is with it being used with the PC. Does anyone know how...

    What is this all about?

    Why do some glazes recommend application back and forth on top surfaces and up and down on vertical surfaces? Would it make a difference to go back and forth on vertical surfaces also?

    2004 Jaguar X-Type

    I detailed a 2004 Jag X-Type that took 12 hours total to complete. The car wasn't in too bad of shape, except for the hood, and around the wheel wells which were peppered with rock chips. There were a few deep RIDS, some of which the owner tried to touch up with paint; which could have been...

    Vinyl Graphics

    I was kicking around the idea of getting into adding vinyl graphics and vinyl body wraps as an added option. I made plenty of phone calls on this to many different companies and did alot of research; and it seems the way to go is with a thermal printer/cutter that is at least 60" wide. The...

    Flex 3401 For Sale

    I have a Flex 3401 that I am looking to sell. I am not totally impressed with this product. It runs well, but I just don't get the results that I desire from it. It is less than a year old and has only been used at most, 4 times. I am looking for $175.00 plus shipping or if you are in the 18702...

    My opinion on these two items....

    I recently purchased two new products to try out and thought I would give my .02 worth. #1: FK 2180 Ultra Poly Wipe Sealant. I used this on my black 2008 Saturn Sky. Application of the product was very easy. It really didn't have much of a smell to it. The removal of it after allowing it...

    Meguiars Plast-X

    I have never used this product before, but heard it does a good job on headlights and taillights. Anyway, I went to K-Mart today to pick up some laundry detergent, and I figured I would walk by the automotive section to see if they had anything good. I found the 10oz bottle of Plast-X for $4.99...

    Pinnacle XMT 180 High Gloss

    I have to order some more wax. I originally was going to order some more Souveran Paste, however, I see that Pinnacle now makes this 180. Has anyone tried this wax yet, and I was wondering how it performs and if there is much of a difference in gloss between this and Souveran?

    Correction Question

    I have never worked on a vehicle with thicknesses this low. In short, I have a client wanting a black 1987 Chevy Z24 detailed. I took a look at it, and it is HEAVILY swirled and some RIDS. I did paint thickness checks on the vehicle and they only ranged from 87 to 105 mils. I know this is...
