I've considered the following: 1) Danase Wet Glaze 2) EZCream Glaze 3) RMG I know that 2 and 3 have light cleaning properties, but I'm worried they'll remove the previous work I've done (I'm layering this over 8 layers of Zaino). Does Danase Wet Glaze have any cleaning power? Is there...

Hey guys, curious if this has any positive effect?

Hey guys, my car is metallic gray and often times it is difficult to see the material being spread on the paint. I end up using WAY too much product because of this. WHen it comes to applying Z5pro to my gray car, is it OK to apply Z5 like ZCS - whisper thin to the point where you can't even...

I have a gray car, and its often times difficult to see the material on the paint. Should I be applying this stuff like ZCS - whipser thin to the point where i can't even see it going on? thanks!

1) Can you layer a glaze? For instance using one known for its filling properties followed by one with great wetness? 2) Whats your favorite glaze for visual wetness? I'd like to put a visually stunning glaze over a filler glaze then a wax on top of all that. Thanks :)

Hey guys, I have a client this week who, along with a detail, wants me to flatten out some touch up paint he's put into a key scratch. From what I've read on this Autopia article: Repairing Chips & Scratches I'll need some 1500grit sand paper, and was curious where I could purchase this...

Finish Kare FK1 Consumer Detailing Products EDIT: I've used MOTHERS FX Wheel/Rim cleaner and it works as described. I'd like to switch to something more cost effective, as $7 per 24oz is going to be a lot in the long haul (I typically use a lot of this stuff). So I'm considering the 221-D...

Hello everyone, I'm curious what you use to deal with leather stains? The only reason I ask is because I'm going to purchase the Porter Cable Carpet Brush (white) and I read the gray brush can be used on leather upholstery. Leather upholstery = leather seats right? Anyways, if thats the...

Hey guys, I recall someone had once posted a RIGID Accessories page... would anyone happen to have the link? Also, should I remove the filter from the wet/dry vac when vacuuming water soaked carpets? Thanks as always gentlemen!!

Hey guys. I re-detailed my 3 series. Heres the process: 1. Wash 2. Clayed (I had done this 3 months ago) 3. BF SRC FP via CCS White & PC (settings 3 and 6) 4. Z5(w/zfx) via CCS Black & PC (settings 1) 5. Another layer of Zaino 6. Didn't have enough z5 left in the bottle, so I mixed Z5...

First off let me start by saying, I wouldn't take a customers car I didn't know how to handle unless, except under these circumstances. My friend called me today, insisted he had a collector who gets MANY details on the line :grinno: . The collector's other detailer may not be able to come...

Hey guys, to boost my no rinse washes would it be possible to spray on AW or a Spray Wax as I dry the ONR? Or would that cause a bonding issue, mixing AW/Spray Wax with the left over ONR residue? Finally, could I just add some AW to the ONR solution for an ultra no rinse cocktail?

So I've been trying to get a city license for my mobile business... this will accommodate my business in Beverly Hills, Ca... So I heard on the phone today that *any* run off from washing your car that gets into the city drain is illegal. He specified copper fillings and oil as being bad for...

Hey guys, right now I'm concentrating on finding the car wash formula that makes your car look THE BEST POSSIBLE after a single wash. I'm assuming a wash & wax would do this, but which one? PS - I'm avoiding including waterless car washes in this because from what I hear it seems ONE would be...

Hey guys, I really like how CG One is a spray on waterless car wash. However, it is a tad bit pricey. I have plenty of ONR (which I use for clay lube) and was wondering if I could mix that strong in a spray bottle and use it as a spray on wash? Thanks guys, this would be great to know!

Hey guys, I'm looking to buy 5-10 drying towels. At pakshak, and other online retails, waffle weaves are at least $9 and usually much higher. I know the absorber, from Pep Boys, is a cheap OTC alternative but does it work well? Are there any other economic alternatives to the absorber or is...

In my quest to become more professional, I'm now considering (actually, pretty much about to) purchase a carpet extractor. I hear a lot of people on the board discussing Bissel and I believe Mytee... any recomendations? As always, price is a factor in my decisions plus the item needs to be...

Hey guys, is there such a device that can be connected to a hose which helps reduce the calcium deposits in the water AND is portable? Thanks :)

Hey guys, I want to be a little more low key with the products I use and I'd like to put them all into plastic bottles. I saw a post around here once which had a site but I couldn't find it... I recall they had $.59 plastic bottles and such... I'd like to get that site or any others which have...
