This is a three day old gift to a client's 18 year old for grauating high school. This car is apparently the last CLK being made so, they make the Grand Edition as a limited run. The "Diamond White" color makes flaws very difficult to photograph. But there were a few micro-scratches and...

Well, this one isn't quite as burley as the last one I posted. But, it was nice to do since this one has been on the road probably all of one week's time. Customer wanted a good cleanig and sealant. It was overcast and starting to drizzle about the time I finished so, pics are pretty sparse...

Thought that would get your attention! So, I'm sitting here thinking that it might be kinda fun and cool to save up all the clay you use this summer in to one big ball. Maybe post pics as you go, see who makes the biggest ball by say, Sept 1.?? Anyone down for this little feat of boredom...

I'm gonna give the van a try. Yesterday, I just picked up an '08 diesel SPrinter. Long wheel base with plenty of room to stand up. Kinda narrow but, it has dual wheels in the rear, which should help with a full water tank. Gonna add this to our fleet in thoughts of replacing trailers with the...

I normally try to stay away from price sensitive customers. But, for some reason I didn't listen to my gut and today I got a reminder why I should. I had an interior job scheduled yesterday morning about two miles from my house. I took the truck home Friday and my garage is about two blocks from...

I just picked up a Flex 3403 rotary from Phil at Detailer's Domain. Equipped with a 4' plate, I rushed right out to the garage to give it a whirl. Holy cr@p!?!?!? Awesome tool!!!!! I would almost consider using this 4" over my Makita./ Anybody out there use a 4" as a primary go to weapon when...

This week, I got a call from this young girl who told me that she has a Toyota FJ that she "Uses off-road" This car is being taken for a photo shoot for an off-road mag this weekend and she wanted it cleaned up. Well, you know, just how much "Off-Road" could an new FJ see??? This car received...

Here is a recent job. Again, I am working on improving my posting and storyline structure. I need to hire a sidekick to help taking "Action Pics" so I can get an ongoing process of the job. Anyway, this is a 1990 F40 that has spent time on the track, in the garage and was just needing some...

Well, today, I sprung for a Flex rotary with a 4" plate. So, we have the new Flex rotary - thanks Phil @ DD - a FLex DA, 9227 Rotary, and a Cyclo. Too much??

This is my first post to this board so, be easy on me. This car is a 1961 "Type E" triple carb Jag. British Racing Green and was completely restored eight years ago. The car has sat in the garge, under a cover for all of those eight years without seeing the light of day. After removing the...

I just finished up a car and have a referral from this same guy. It is going to be a ceramic clear coat (nano-particle) and I have been given a speciaif method to achieve maximum results. So, I need to be able to read panel temp as I go. Any suggestions?

Hey guys, I am relatively new here and have to say that I have lurked on a few other detailing forums. None have left me with much of an impression. Seems most of the other forums are populated by hacks who seem to think they are all that - glorified carwashers - everybody has a niche'. But...

For our trailer, I am looking for a new inspection light. We use a 3M Sun Gun in the shop and thinking about something different in the trailer. Any suggestions/experience??

Wel, this year we are really stepping it up: changed to the Flex 3401 (in process of a 3403), new trailer, press washer, just about everything. We are thinking of changing from Zymol Vintage to Swissvax Crystal Wax. My newest consideration is a blower vs. the compressed air we currently use. We...

So, I've noticed that on the days we have big corrections jobs that I am using the Flex 3401, the next day my wrist and elbow joints are kinda sore. Anybody else feeling this?
