This morning I had to take my car in for a check up at my Lexus dealership. I meet with the service rep and explain to her not to wash the car. Here is her response. "just so you know there is no charge for that" I respond "yeah I know I just would prefer them not to do it" she "why wouldn't...

do any of you guys play Madden, I got the new one and it is awesome. I am still perfecting my skills, but I do play online if anyone wants to play.

Dwayne just checking to see if you have any plans of carrying Clearkote products. This would really solidify premiumauto as THE one stop detailing shop. The Vanilla Moose and Quikshine are really impressive products that are priced reasonably, these are must haves. The rest of the line is...

I know we have had discussions about topping UPP. Most people claimed they saw no difference including myself. Last night due to it getting dark, I didn't have the time to let EX sit for 45 minutes, so I put S100 on over two layers of EX. When I put it on I didn't notice much other than the...

I have a client who just scuffed up the bumper on one of her cars, a civic all the way down to black. She doesn't want to spend money at the dealer. Is there any spray paint that I can use to make the bumper silver again.

I recently worked on this 2000 Jetta, it had alot of micromarring and a few swirls. The interior was trashed the light interior was covered with a gray film. Had to use a brush with some EFHI and alot of elbow work. Outside: DACP VM UPP Inside: 303

So I have been doing some experience with both UPP and EX, I like both products alot. They seem to be similar with subtle differences, the UPP seems to have more gloss and the EX more depth. Using QD's on both of these I have found that Clearkote's Quikshine is great on EX, it adds some gloss...

I posted some pics yesterday and they were not that great. The owner of the car took much better ones that show off the car much better. I used 303 on the inside. SFP, VM, S100 on the outside. AIO on the wheels, EF Black Saphire on the tires.

I did a detail for a fellow autopian, PCMike. He had some severe water stains on the glass and the left side. Also had some damaged trim, the guy even used Peanut butter as was suggested on this site. He keeps his car very neat and clean, I dressed the inside with 303. On the outside I used...

here are some pics from a job I did last weekend. The Jetta was extremely dirty inside, took me almost three hours for just the inside, I had to scrub every inch, used many q-tips. The leather went from light gray to yellow. Outside I clayed (pinnacle), then DACP, VM, UPP. This is a killer...

This week I spent a long weekend in New York and brought some of my detail supplies with me. Yeah this is how I relax. I had spectacular results with DACP/Vanilla Moose/Ultimate Platinum. I have previously used AIO, UPC, and even Menzerna FP before UPP all with great results. The Vanilla...

I just got my Poorboy's package yesterday. Last night I had to do some experimenting. The EX is very impressive, I put it over 5 layers of UPP, and it added some depth while keeping the high gloss. What have you guys been using as a polish before the EX.

So today I had to get acquainted with quite a few products that I recently received from both Clear Kote and Poorboy's. The test bed, my 2003 Gray Metallic IS300. One thing these are only based on one time use, so my results are not perfect. First up the Poorboy's Spray & Wipe. This is an...

I noticed in a different thread that someone had problems with applying Blackfire over VM. Just wondering if anyone else has had any experience with this. I was hoping to use VM with UPP.

Just wondering for those situations that you don't have electricity to work with, is it possible to power it off the car battery. I have a job this weekend, a Yukon with some swirls and the guy lives in an apartment complex with no electricity and wants it done there. Any ideas or should I...

I just went down to my local harley shop where I get my S100, they were out, the guy tells me that they have been selling alot of it in the last two months and that most people buy two or three, hmmm sounds like some autopians. The word is getting out. He says that I can get it at their other...

It seems that almost all new leather is coated, I have been caring for my coated leather in the same way as uncoated, using Lexol cleaner and conditioner. Just wanted to see if you guys treated coated and uncoated the same. I am thinking about picking up the Platinum Leather Conditioner and...

Guys, I need a little help here, I have a car that I am going to be working on this weekend, Blue Volvo early 90's. Swirls galore and there is alot of oxidation. A few problems, there is no electricity for a PC also the women is only a little concerned about the paint and only wants to pay for...

Unfortunately I can't search, so sorry I am asking things that are up already. I just ordered the two Menzerna Polishes and I am mostly interested in knowing how the Final Polish stacks up against other products, I know it has no fillers or wax. Does it compare to GEPC or #7. What pads have...

I just took a look at a truck I am detailing tomorrow (02 Escalade) and was informed by the owner that he has a gas stain on the plastic skirt. It is a white truck and the stain is about 2 inches wide and 6 inches long. It is only noticeable from about one ft. away. I have no idea what to try...
