Just curious as to how many that are out full time detailing on your own, or with your own company........would you make the leap again? Not what would you do different (although feel free to throw that in,) just would you do it again period? Yes or No.

Anybody have experience with replacing the solution pump on extractors? More specifically, I have the sensei heated 100psi model and I have to replace the pump. The d@#$ thing happens to be $200. Can I replace it with a similar model? Or does it have to be an exact replacement? I would...

Not sure if anyone has a want or a need but it looks like the old 6.5 greyhound clone engines are going away at harbor freight and being replaced by a different brand. Anyways, they have the old engines on closeout for $75. Just an FYI.

But I got a new truck.......well new to me 2006 Tacoma with only 21k on the clock. V6, 4x4, Off Road and SR5 Package. How did I ever manage without a truck? Life is so much more convenient with one. :D

So my boss comes in my office and says "Mark, I need you to find out what in the hell this thing is." Apparently one my co-workers found this among some paint supplies in the storage room. It could be completely un-related to painting but thought I would post it up here. I told him I was sure...

Any body know where I can find these things in stock? My dad wants to start working on his 68 camaro and wants some of these so he can push the car in the corner when he's not working on it. I've seen a few online but was wondering if anyone knows of a store who carries them. Anyone using...

I've seen QW+ mentioned a few times on the board and have always got the impression that the users feel that it is a very under rated product here. Well, I just so happened to pick up the last bottle during Poorboys warehouse clearance sale. According to my first use, Quick Wash on my GF's...

Am I allowed to post the link to a craigslist ad I found? I frequently check the local sites to see who is advertising this way......and who can spell. This ad I am speaking of, the guy actually boasts not using a clay bar or buffer yet is advertising a "Full Out Detail." Maybe it's just me...

Just wondering if anyone had made the switch. I know alot of folks have upgraded from the PC to the flex, just wondering if any cyclo users had done the same.

I know I'm probably not alone in this so I thought I'd throw it out there. I've long desired to do detailing on the side.....well because I just like doing it, and the thought of getting paid for doing something I like has a nice ring to it. I've done a few details here and there for friends...

Just a general question really. We use them here at work for some general degreasers and such. I was looking at their website and noticed they have a full on array of automobile cleaning chemicals. Just wondering if anyone has used them and if so, what have you used.

A full 12 oz. bottle of the Carnauba Finishing Glaze. Would like to trade for some Chemical Guys Extreme VRT/VRP dressing.

is it working? I can't for the life of me see any buttons that say New Post or anything of the sort?

Don't mind the title, it just seems that my storage space for supplies is shrinking too fast. I was looking through the products saying "Hmmm..I've used this once, not for me, probably won't use it again. Yet it still sits on the shelf collecting dust. I've pretty much found what I prefer to...

What's up folks. My uncle gave me a call today and told me that his van was back from the shop. He was involved in an accident and the air bags were deployed. Well now he says he can still smell the dust from the airbag. Anyone deal with this before? I'm guessing my extractor will take most...

Okay, I'm posting this thread and my face is about as red as a ketchup bottle. I'm working on a black 2004 acura TL. The paint is coming beautifully except for some stubborn sap all over the flats of the car. I tried claying, nothing, rubbing alcohol, nothing, bug and tar, nothing. I've...

Okay, so my dad's birthday is coming up and he is in deperate need of a new washing brush. Try as I may to get him to try something different, this is the only thing he will use to wash his Trailblazer. So now I'm thinking, instead of him going to the local truck shop and buying the synthetic...

Hopefully this helps someone out. I have a couple bottles that don't have the markings for dilution ratios. I hate having to sit their and figure out how much for how much??? So I made a chart for the common size bottles or containers you may encounter. There is a pretty simple formula at...

Hey everyone, just wondering what the extractor users here are using for shampoo. I think the only designated extractor shampoo I have seen is from Chemical Guys. Can you use a diluted APC, or stick with a shampoo compatible with extractors? I understand the need for a use of a de-foamer when...

Hey everyone. Just wondering if there is a way to resize a bunch of pics at once. My digi pics come out at 2304x1728 and I was wondering if there was a way to resize a group of them at once. It's a pita to resize one by one.
