I had some P21S laying around... so I decided to do a little detailing last night. Damn black car is already covered in dust after about 5 miles.

Hey Everyone... I havent posted in a long while. I hope all is well on Autopia. Anyway, I recently got a new SUV... a 2005 Mercury Mountaineer. I just detailed her today and took some pictures. I used up my old Z2 and topped with S100. Tell me what y'all think!

Hey guys, im new over here but not new in the detailing world. Anyway, I just listed my PC 7336 on ebay. I will sell it to anyone on detailcity for $65, or you could just wait it out and possibly get a better deal if you are interested...

Dave and I have talked a little bit about aBay, and how much more usefull I thought it was when it was an actuall forum where people could post questions about the individual items so everyone could see. I know I barley look at aBay anymore, and I think it would be a good idea to bring back the...

Anyone know of a good Meg's distributor in Houston, or surrounding areas? :confused:

I just picked up my PC 7336sp at Lowe's, and now I have a few questions about pads. First, which would be better for light SMR, a yellow or an orange pad? The orange pad apealed to me because the CMA site says you can use it for polishing/smr/waxing, instead of having 3 different pads. Is it...

not orange. Well, it is orange in real life but my digicam seems to be over exposing all the pictures I take in any sort of light. So here it is, the PINK VW Bug Convertible. If anyone knows how to fix these, feel free to. I would appreciate it. Heres what I did... I started out with...

I have an orange car im working on, I just used IHG after a nice dawn wash and I am already impressed. However, since I have never detailed this color orange, I would like Autopia's help. This will be a quick poll, I would like to know which wax/sealant would offer the BEST possible...

For Christmas this year, my mom got some Microfiber dish towels in her stocking, seeing them on Christmas day, I imediately took the towels and gave them the CD test. They passed, not only did they pass... but with flying colors. I rubbed as hard as I could and did not manage to get one micro...

I was curious to find out how many offer rain checks to their customers. I recently started providing anyone that paid for more than just a basic wash, a 24 hour rain check, where I will come out the next sunny day at the owners convenience and re-do only the outside at no charge. I...

Why exactly do we detail? Is it the money? a hobby? time to relax? I think for me its more of a hobby than anything. I used to help my dad clean the car when I was just a toddler, and I have been doing it ever since. It also just lets me get out of the house and do somthing, its a time...

I am not using Z5, only Z1 and Z2. My last coat of Z2 on the Land Cruiser was in early October, so about 3 and a half months ago. My question is, If i want to put another coat of Z2 on today, is it nescesarry to use Z1 first? The water still beads, and the finish is still pretty slick...

For all the Professional's out there, what would you say the most popular car is that you detail? For me, I would have to say it would have to be a tie between the Lexus LX470/Land Cruiser and an Expedition.

What do you use to carry your supplies in? I can't stand having so much crap in my trunk that restricts the amount of stuff you can carry, and ends up everywhere after you take a turn too fast... I found 2 DeWalt carriers on wheels. Both are filled to capacity, but they hold nearly...
