K, maybe not detailing, but I'm looking to replace the Halogens in the garage with something else for autobody work and painting when I came across these and this and finally this Pretty unique to say the least.

Sanding Automotive paint/body filler in particular..

K, last night I go out the the garage b4 bed to put another light coat of TOL Black Velvet wax on the Audi. I had washed the car Saturday and left it in the garage and drove the beater all weekend. So anyway I wipe the panels down, apply some wax wipe it off (BV is a wipe on wipe off paste...

K I brought some of this stuff a couple of weeks ago as I was tired of what I was using to clean the Instrument Cluster in my A4 (too dusty) and I liked the reviews I read. Probelm is I can't get the stuff off. It always leaves a haze of product no matter how little or much I use. I've...

I wanted some of those little dispenser/application bottles but couldn't find any even at my auto body supplier. I was going to bite the bullet and order some when I came accross some 7 oz ones in, of all places, the ladys cosmetic ailse at the supermarket for 79 cents. Theres nothing fancy...

I wanted to get some before and after pics but I don't have a Digital Camera and didn't want to deal with the dropping film off, tonite I wanted to polish panels. I got ahold of Anthony about some issues I was having w/Hi-Temps stuff and he reccommended the Optimum Polish. So after...

DHL dropped off my order. Here's what I got based on a reference list from Anthony 1 each - Optimum Green MC/ Optimum Blue medium polishing / White Ultra Fine Finishing 7" foam pads and a Black Lambs Wool Pad 1 Gal of HD Cleaner Concertrate (APC) 1 Sample of Optimum Spray Wax and of...

Brought a new 1200W Halogen so I could move the 1000W around the car in the garage while working. Was working tonite on the car (following the advice from a thread here that working in the garage at night really lets the Hallogens show imperfections on the panels) Using my Dewalt 849 and a...

84 F degrees and 65% humidity, it's like twice that in my garage. Tried to get some light polishing done and the sweat is just dripping of me onto the panels. Does flash time for a polish get lower as the ambient temperature gets higher?

I would like to use the siphon on my Karcher PW to spray the car down with soap but don't want to use the brands they sell. Has ne1 done this b4? I would be using Meg's Gold Class which is pretty thick. TIA

I started a thread last week about getting DI-Water from a company that provides the same to my employer. Well the tanks came yesterday and needless to say I was eager to give this a whirl. The tanks are about the size of small scuba tanks and the driver showed me how to make all the...

I purchased a PC 7336 when Lowes had that sale alwhile back to see what this thing could do. I already had a Dewalt 849 rotary and am comfortable using it but still it seemed like I could use it for when the situation did not call for breaking out the big guns. I use HT Heavy Cut w/LC Orange...

In another post I mentioned that the place where I work uses DI-water in the manufactuering process but we have tanks and not cartridges. I spoke with the sales manager from the supplier and he said he could hook me up with a 8" dia x 18" H setup (two tanks of course) which is estimated to...

I've searched the forums and most threads either debate the use of a leaf blower or discuss the usage when drying the car. I was at Sears tonite and made up my mind to get one to cut down on wiping down the panels. I wash my car in the garage so I'm not to concerned about stirring up dust...

K, I've been using QEW since last fall w/the two bucket method. One 2 gal w/QEW and the other a 5 Gal with just water as a toss bucket for the wash mitts. Today I tried something different. QEW and water in a two gallon sprayer and just a 2 gallon bucket for washing out the mitt. So...

I came across it today but never heard of it b4. Sounds insane. Dri Wash 'n Guard Car Wash ---- Edited ----- Never mind. Should've did a search first
