This is a couple of pics of my Kitchen during my S-100 fiasco.......

I don't normally post pics in the forum, But I had to this time. I was doing my neighbors truck for his return home as a gift from his wife. I was gonna get the wheelwell nice and clean. I wanted to turn the brown to a satin black...........I found out that the well is a painted red.:bounce...

I've noticed a few new detailers on here from the puget sound. I know there are others that have been on here awhile from Seattle area. I was thinking, maybe somtime this summer, we should have a deatilers get together.

I have one of those green power boxes in my front yard. Well today I looked at it and got an idea. Since some of my customers come to my house for a detail( like the Mazda in the pic) I would use the green box as a chart. Heres what I mean. I sectioned it into 4 sections. I can than...

---------------------Beware it is a long Post--------------------------------- I am obviously using Autopia to gain detailing knowledge as far as waxes sealants procedures and such. My question is, where do I look to "study" up on non-detailing detailing info. I am not so simple...

Sorry for the rookie question. How do I know whether to use compound or SMR. :nixweiss

This may seem like a weird question. For my interior scent I use a small piece of cloth with some cologne stashed in a not evident place. Since it is quality cologne it stays for some time. When I don't notice the scent anymore I take the cloth and "swirl" it in the air. My question...

If I am not mistaken,debadging is the process of taking the emblems off your vehicle. My questions..... 1. How do I know if it has the "Two Way Tape" process,or the peg that would leave a hole if removed. 2. what would you use to remove the gunk left behind.

How far are you willing to travel to do a vehicle. The reason I ask is one of my new customers wants to give her mom a deatil from me for mothers day. The mother lives 2 hours away from me (one direction). Since I am new and need a good customer base (she lives in a rich area) I will most...

I finally did some detailing on my truck. I usually spend most free time on my wifes car. Thought I would post a pic to get some feed back.

I have some Meguiars body scrub for clear oate vehicles. My question is, can this be used on vehicles with only a single stage paint job. My assumption is that products that are safe for cear coat are safe for single stage due to the fact that you can't use overly abrasive products on...

I am not talking about car wax. I am talking about wax as in melted crayons. I learned this trick from walking in during one of my wifes candle parties. To removed melted wax from carpeting, place a paper bag over the melted wax. Use a hot clothes iron and run it over the bag. The wax will...

I did a QD on my wifes Car today (Champagne colored 2000 Intrepid). This was the first time that I used Meguiars Endurance. I must say I love it :up . One coat makes the tire look great and it feels better. With a second coat you can see an even bigger difference. Add that to the plaesant...

I found some information on hjere about Liquid Glass after I found it at a local Autozone. I was already planning on getting S100. My question is, Can I layer the S100 over the Liquid glass.

My friend has an Aluminum tool box in the bed of his truck. Since joining Autopia he wants every aspect of his vehicle looking great. What can he use to enhance and brighten the box. :confused: :nixweiss

A friend if mine has a white"haze" on his black plastic wheel trim. When it is wet it can't be seen but appears agian when it drie. I suggested a good vinyl cleaner to see if that worked. Are their any other suggestions?

I was calling local motorcycle stores to find s100. One store said that they don't carry it but they would order it for me. My question is that they have a product called "Bike Bright" made by Blue Coral. I was wondering if anyone has heard of it and/or knows if it would work for cars (He...

I was told that the wax i use is most likely a cleaner wax. How is this different from other waxes. And how can I tell if other waxes I plan on buying are cleaner waxes. :nixweiss

I know that most of the products talked about on here are sold online (Klasse,Zaino,etc.). What are some of the better products found in stores. I would like to get a good base of products to have around while waiting for shipments.

While at Wal-mart getting a clay bar I saw a black and decker sander. It is 5.5 amps with 10,000 rpms. Above it you could buy a velcro backing with a cotton bonnet. It was only $40. I know that it isn't as powerful as what you pros are usuing but for the proce I figure it could be a good...
