I was back at Motorwerks today doing some cars. The 550 was just a basic wash. It was the first one that I have been up close and personal with. I never liked them till today. It was starting to grow on me. The SRT8 Magnum was a beautiful car in metallic black. I was told to give it a VERY...

I was wondering how long it takes to get a Yacht done. Inside/outside wash and clean, basically weekley maintanence. If I had 3 people on one 50-70 foot Yacht could it be done in one day? I was thinking one on the outside washing and two on the inside. When one finishes they help the others...

Well I finally purchased some of the Ultima products and had a chance to use the PGP on a clients Expedition. It was a bit tricky to figure out. The first car I used it on was a black Focus(autopian here) and I was worried cause there were some streaks left but he said they were gone the next...

I am trying to decide on wether to open a detailing supply store or not. I wouldn't do much over the internet(atleast I am not planning to right now)and would be in Houston...for now. My only concern is do people really care about this stuff? I know there are tons of vette, porsche, and bmw guys...

Okay so not too long ago I purchased a 1969 Karmann Ghia(sweet car, I love it). I am waiting to put an alternator in it so while its sitting in the garage I figured I would see how bad the paint was. Mind you its a 40 year old paint job...I think. I don't know if it has been repainted or...

I am needing to buy some new pads and was reading about the "OEM" and the "High Gloss" CCS pads. Well I have and have been using the HG ones and was wondering how much of a difference there is switching to the OEM ones. They say they are quite a change because they are not as forgiving as the HG...

I'm stoked....well right now anyway. Long story short, I was speaking with Joshvette about a client and I told him I needed clay. He told me that they had some meguiars white clay at pepboys. So I went there to get the kit that the clay comes in (I need it tomorrow and thurs and cant get it from...

Okay so I heard about this on another forum and have been doing some research about this stuff. Its a clear protection film that you put on top of your windshield to protect from rock chips and uv rays and such. Looks pretty bad a$$ but don't know if anyone has experience with it. My only...

Thought it was a cool pic. Regular client of mine but I just used CMW and I love it. Goes on and comes off very easy and looks great. I topped it with Deep Detail from Deep Finish. I love that stuff, the way it makes it look and how slick it leaves the finish.

Well today I got burned by a G35. I couldn't get this paint anywhere near what I should have. I felt...I feel so defeated and like I should find a new job. The only way I could get anything done was to use OP twice on every panel with an LC white 6.5 and the Flex. Anything else wouldn't do...

What can I do to bring this back to original? I didn't want to use any polishes I use for paint cause I didn't know how gentle these pieces are. Can it be brought back? Anyone have advice? Thanks.

Nothing special, just a simple wash and wax. I just really love these cars. It was pretty dirty like he went mudding in it. I don't know what he did. No before pics forgot I had the camera with me. The 2 pics of the gauges were pretty funny to me so I put them up here. The first one is telling...

I am looking for some new aluminum and chrome polish. I have read on here that it is a really good product. Went to their site and there are a lot of different ones to choose from. The truckers blend "general purpose" sounds like the best bet because it works on everything, aluminum, stainless...

Today I went to do an interior detail and wash and wax on a sweet Z06. I don't know why they wanted the interior detailed it was very clean but I get payed to work not ask ?'s. I like Fridays that are easy. On to the car 06 Z06 Ported LS7 heads LMR(Late model race craft the shop I was at)...

I wanted to post about the QD from https://www.deepfinish.com/ called Deep Detail. I haven't seen a post doing a review on it. I bought the QD about a month and a half ago and have to say I love it. I haven't used a QD like this. It leaves such a nice look to the vehicle. I haven't used too many...

I know there are only a few of us here that have a Flex 3401 but I was wondering what pads you are using. I know some are with CCS and some with Erasure. Are those the only two? I want to find some 5.5 CCS pads for the new backingplate when it comes in but I don't know if I like the flat edge. I...

I am getting rid of my pc, I just bought a new machine and will probably not use the pc anymore. I have with it, 4 edge pads(yellow, green, white,and blue i think), two edge adapters(one needs to be sent back so they can send you a new one) two backing plates (stock). Also a few other glazing...

Well, I decided to use the Flex today since I was told that the red bp would be okay to use while I waited for the black one. I have to say, I LOVE IT! I was able to do some polishing and walk away with out back problems. Very nice. I didn't think that I would use speed 6 cause when I turned it...

I have always been a fan of the Benz's but the new 3 series from BMW is just stunning. This one from AC Schnitzer is one that I would definetly get. BMW AC Schnitzer GP3.10 This thing is freakin sweet.

I love my job:bounce The client of mine that had the 79 ferrari decided to sell it and buy this 04 360 6 speed....REAL 6 speed, not that paddle shift. I didn't know they made that car with a clutch to tell you the truth. Anyway, gorgeous color and very well maintained. Washed with ONR...
