    Home carpet cleaning...

    I put a bid down for a condo. The rugs are nice but I like to clean the place where I live as much or more than my car. I was thinking since I don't have any furniture, when I first move in I go really clean the rugs with one of the rental machines from Home Depot or something. I really want...

    Before/After of a 10 second N/A Camaro I detailed.

    He has a nitrous system installed as well to get him a deep 9 second time slip, I drove the car around town for 45 minutes, man I feel in love with the power. http://community.webshots.com/user/cleancamarojoe Click on my portfolio and look at the black Camaro.

    Does anyone use Zaino glass polish with a buffer?

    Like a Cyclo or Porter Cable? I have the tiny pads used for a hand drill & plastic polish and I think I could really get a windshield crystal clear by the same pad on another machine. Reason I'm asking is I heard (from Intel or Showroom) a while back that it might distort the glass integrity...

    Quick Zaino question.

    No more garage for me, I rather save the money so the P21S wax isn't an option anymore. I like Klasse because it darkens my red Chevrolet but I like the life span/beading of Zaino. What Zaino product will deepen my red paint, if that is even an option. I THINK I have been using Z2...

    What polish would you use?

    I have to detail some Camaro (10 second all motor Camaro, I get driving rights too). The car is black, has 16,000 miles and even swirls to pass as a 20 year old car with 150,000 miles. The owner paid a few hundred bucks to have everything fixed and it looked perfect when it came...

    How to re-size pictures and save file space.

    If you use Windows XP you can save file space and alot of Autopia members the hassle of waiting to download huge pictures where they have to scroll left to right. http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/pro/downloads/powertoys.asp Select the "image resizer". With this offical Mircosoft...

    P21S users only

    On the back of the container it says something like "do not allow wax to fully haze over, remove before this occurs". How many of you do that? Seems like I would be able to cover one panel with wax then have to remove it before the next panel. Is there a difference in shine? Why would they...

    Cyclo Polisher is better than sliced bread.

    After using my Porter Cable for a little over a full year on cars from showroom new to 10 years old I have come to the conclusion that the Porter Cable was a wise investment but a waste of time. The Cyclo works much better. The normal 8 hour polishing session took 2 hours at most. The...

    Pictures of my car.

    http://community.webshots.com/user/cleancamarojoe Click on "my car". The car has probaly been washed 4 times since last summer. I think it cleans up fairly well. Can't wait to work my car with the Cyclo polisher.

    Got the Cyclo polisher setup BUT...

    I ordered pads, I guess they come in pairs because you order 1 foam polishing pad and you get a pair which makes sense, you always need two of everything with the Cyclo. I order 1 backing velcro attatcher and I get ............. 1 velcro attatcher. ARGH, so much for detailing this...

    Billet polish or is there something better?

    Here it goes. I have a customer, he has some really nice and large (17x9 and 17x11) raw aluminum rims. He let them get dirty through some rain storms. The Mothers polish works but man is it time consuming, does the Mothers Billet stuff work any quicker? Is there ANYTHING in stores that...

    What to use as a lamp to bring out the swirls?

    I tried regular garage lighting with no luck. I tried warehouse lighting with no luck. What do you pro's use to bring out the swirls, it seems like it's not about the intensity of the light; there is some sort of special light (maybe the u.v. range) that brings out the swirls. I don't...

    Leather product stuck in the holes of my seats...

    I have recently purchased new leather for my Camaro (new black leather from a 2001 Z28 with under 15,000 miles). Seats are basically brand new. I go to use Meguairs conditioner (just to see if it was any good), it was the white thick kind in a black bottle. It dried up and I cant get it out...

    Rim's and a coating?

    Looks like I am getting polished aluminum 17x11 rims for the rear and 17x9's up front. They are polished aluminum and I drive my car off an on in the rain, snow and whatever I have to in order to go about my daily duties. They are a major pain in the neck to clean (buddy has polished rims)...

    Eagle One aluminum rim cleaner as good/better than P21S???

    Which cleaner is better? I have a buddy with a 1500.00 rim set who needs a nice, safe and effective cleaner. He's hooked up on P21S but it's too much money since I'll be cleaning the car every weekend and I like to use alot of spray.

    What do you think of "Tuff Stuff"?

    I think the Tuff Stuff carpet cleaner is great. It works better than my Enimen Fabrik cleaner, even when the Fabrik stuff is sprayed full strenght. I just wish they made bigger cans.

    How thick is the average clear coat?

    I am going to buy a tool and measure how much clear we are removing with our products and polishers but I want to make sure I can measure down to the exact decimal.

    When does the Zaino shine stop increasing

    Trying to get an idea of how other people feel. From my experience, Zaino seems to reach it's max shine at 3 layers. After that it seems to be "bragging rights". What do you think? :confused:
