I finally bought a PFW pad along with some SIP. I tried it(the pad) out today to see what all the hype was about. Holy crap. I need to by a lot of these things. I have polished my car, well half of it, with OC and LC orange pads x2. (The LC yellow just left too much marring and not enough...

Hello all, I am thinking about holding a seminar in my neighborhood to teach people on how to properly wash and maintain a vehicle. Now I do not consider myself a "professional" in anyway but I don't want to get into compounding/polishing paint so I think it should be okay. Simply washing...

Whats up everyone I have been using Concours for some time now and first off let me say I can't stop using it. Its great, I love it, it has brought me back to naubas. I wont ever stop using sealants but this stuff is amazing. The slickness is awesome, the way water falls off the cars is great...

I went back to Motorwerks the other day to wash a bmw with a BAD A$$ steering wheel(I'll post pics) that moniters your quarter mile times, 0-60 times, G's, and what ever else. Also on the sides there are two rectangular pieces that are your shift lights. Sweet car. I polished as much as I...

So has anyone used the Edge system with the Flex? I remember all the posts about it but hadn't heard anything since. I was interested in how it was working. Problems like the PC or all sorted out?

Well today I decided to clean the interior of my step fathers Saturn Vue redline. I don't know when the hell was the last time it was even vacc'd. I didn't do a full int. detail but rather just a quick clean up since the rain was a comin. Total took about an hour and 20 min. Vacc'd Panels...

Has anyone used this product? It is their oder/bacteria cleaner. If anyone has used it please let me know if it works. Thanks

Has anyone layered UPGP on top of OS? I tried it on a friends SUV the other day and I don't know how long its going to last. I figured since I'm layering a sealant on top of a sealant that it would be okay but I don't know how finiky UPGP is. I did notice however that it was beading up better...

So I was thinking about something...can one own a flamingo? I don't know why I thought about it but then thought it would be cool to have one just hanging around the house. Are they illegal to own? I have looked on yahoo and google and can not find anything about it. Anyway, like the title says...

So I have been reading doing some research for something I am wanting to put together and am finding different "facts". What is the temperature when nuba breaks down and melts. I have read, 139F I have also read 212F (95C) and then some others. Also 82C (179F) So which one is it? Is it...

First off I don't want this to become a Menz rocks Optimum sucks or vis versa, just need some knowledge. Okay I am going to try to explain what I am trying to ask as best as possible, bear with me. I have been using OP and OC for a good while now and love them. They are great products. I am...

Well today I did my first Lamborghini. A 91 Diablo, It was only a clay and wax but man did it need it. It was like the car was kept outside for a year, the paint felt terrible. The car needs to be polished but they didn't want me to do it today so maybe later, maybe not. Either way nice car, the...

Well I have been getting asked by a few people to detail their bikes. I had never done one so I told them I couldn't. A friend of mine just bought an 05 Harley Sportster so I told him I wanted to detail it just so I could get a feel for it and learn some things, and to figure how much I would...

I polished with OC and OP then I applied this LSP. Most of everything I have applied seems to roll of at around 45 mph. This on the other hand began to roll off at 35 mph. I know thats not a true test for an LSP but when you're not running windshield wipers IT HELPS A LOT!!! LOL. Anyway, I am...

My girlfriend and I were trying to figure out how much one of these places make. I have been batting around the idea of opening one of these up but also keeping the mobile side going. Problem is I can't really ask people here about it because of the competition problem. There is a 2 bay hand car...

I'm trying to find a place in San Antonio that could use a detailer for the summer. I have someone that isn't a hack, and understands the meaning of a detail. High school cat just looking for some summer work. If anyone in San Ant. needs or knows someone that could use a summer helper please let...

Well I think I'm going to need a rotary. I polished out the front of the car with the Flex and did not touch the swirls. Its terrible. The car has been resprayed because there was no paint transfer, unless back in the 60's they were already using clear. If the car was resprayed they might have...

Hello all. I have never been one for Zymol just because I thought it was all advertising. I have read a lot of reviews on it but don't know if I would want it on my cars. Anyway, I am starting to hear more and more from clients of mine that they are wanting me to apply some Zymol. I am more of a...

Okay so I polished my mothers car with my new pads and I noticed there are little spots everywhere. You can't feel them, clay won't get them out, and obviously the Flex can't touch it. You can only see them in the sun or under the halogens. The other thing is something wierd going on in the...
