    I have a chance to detail 6 big dump trucks, need some help.

    My uncle works for a paving company and he called me and asked me if I would wash their 6 black peterbuilt quad-axle dumps. He said the asphalt plant is paying for the cleaning, so I could charge what I wanted. I detail a smaller dump truck every month, and it is fairly simple, but these are...

I have tried both of these products once each on my truck and my dads black truck. I cant tell much of...

    All Canon camera users chime in

    I have narrowed it between a Cannon A530, Kodak c875, and Panasonic DMC ls2s. I know about the kodak software and programs (and I like it very much), but what kinda software does the A530 and Panasonic come with? Is it as easy to use as the kodak easy-share or is it just an upload/view type of...

    I got my new laptop this xmas and I want to get a camera for an addition. I have a sh!t load of best buy gift cards that I need to blow, so I was kinda set on cameras there. I probably know that I can get better cameras for the money elsewhere (just like Best buy car audio). I was looking at...

    2002 JD 7410 and 7210. I did these Deeres early last year, and it was time for another cleanup. Last time they just sprung for cleaner/wax, but this time, they sprung for some expensive stuff.

    I did a bad thing today, I used Black Magic Wax!!

    I was on the way to do my normal wash/AW routine on my best friends mom's black denali. When I got there there was a note asking me to wax the top of the suv. I did not have any wax or polish with me so I panicked. I noticed an old bottle of Black Magic Wet Liquid wax laying there in the garage...

    My buddy's Chevy, and I bet you have never seen my truck like this!!

    Me and my friend Justin decided to get our trucks muddy one day just for the heck of it. No one in our town has ever seen our trucks no more than dusty, so we figured we would turn some heads. I got muddy on one of my farm paths, and he went on some of his jobsite paths searching for mud. I...

    I have got to get the swirls out of my running boards.

    I think they are polished stainless steel. They are a real eyesore. Nothing like having freshly polished everything, and then the running boards look like someone took a Brillo pad to them. I have tried the rotary and HT EC on a orange pad, got better, but still no removal. Is there anyway to...

    Anyone want to sell a Nextel Phone?

    I dropped my i860 in a pond the other day. I put it in the oven to dry it out and it works ok for a while and then it cuts off again. I know water is a nail in the coffin for nextels. I want the new i580 construction camera phone ( I love my camera), but at almost $300, it is a little pricey...

    I have been using it on some customers cars for the past month (been on a sealant kick), and on my parents trucks. All of these autos are garaged daily and are washed once a week by me with Duragloss Car wash soap. I cant even seem to get the beading to last a week. I put it on my mothers...

    When did you all move out of the house?

    I am 19 and I still live at home. I guess this is a confusing time for teenagers as when to move out of the house and go out into the real world. I attend college, but for the next year, it will be only 20mi from my house, so I prob wont move then. But when I go to NC state in fall 2007, I will...
