Okay I made a thread here not too long ago maybe an hour heh. Situation is it has been outside with poor maintence because I have been at college in dorms. All along the side skirts there is caked on road grim/tar. I have tar/bird crap remover stuff. What would be the best method to get rid...

Okay so I have experience detailing. I have a PC and have used it several times for a lot of jobs. I recently commited one of the biggest mistakes of my life by letting a friend borrow my detailing supplies and my megs DACP has gone "missing". So basically where I am right now is about to...

Okay so I a 2004 Nissan Sentra SE-R Spec-V, man that's a mouthfull. SO anyway a long time ago I was detailing it and then got in a wreck and since then have let my paint grow into a miserable wreck. My already crappy/thin paint is swirled from being outside for months and washed and just no...

So I am going to be detailing a car tomorrow for one of my dad's coworkers. It is a white late 90s mazda 626. I am doing the interior and exterior all the way for only 50 bux. I have no clue why I said I would do it so low, but whatever it has been a long time since I have detailed another...

So I washed my mom's bmw today which I will post in click and brag but I just wanted to show you guys this pic in this forum as it applies here because it is a new product I wish to share and discuss :) Here is the insane tire shine after letting it dry for like 20 mins and I sprayed it on...

Don't know if you guys have noticed because I have seen any threads but the new NXT line of products have been popping up in Advance Auto Parts around nation. Anyone tested them out yet? Mine has gotten in a few recently and I was going to go pick them up tomorrow and test them out but was...

Okay so I was coming home from doing a detail on the Fronteir I have posted up in the click and brag and the freaking shop vac had tipped over and spilt out all the dirt/mud I got out of his carpets:( ALL OVER my back seat. I got most of it out but there are still spots left, but I got some...

I can't remember who it was and I didn't respond on the thread but I was wondering if anyone remembers the picture someone posted a while back. It showed how swirl marks appear. I believe it was a green just done in paint picture with scratches everywhere and then showed the ones that appeared...

I don't have 100 posts yet but I believe this post would be better fitted into this section of the forum. When I am polishing with DACP and my PC I quickly find what I think might be referred to as "dusting". There are like little pin size bits of polish thrown everywhere. They are not...

My friends uncle's 99 Frontier needed some TLC and he is a very kind guy so I told him we could do it no problem. He garages his car and also takes very good care of it but over time it collected some oxidation and swirls. My friend helped me do the detail and since I taught him how to work...

Okay so this morning I got up around 10. Went to pick up a friend and drop him off. Got some chickfila then I got cracking. Day started off bad. I washed car but then the dang sun started to dry it so I dried as fast as I could with the new Sonus WW which worked good. Then I clayed the hood and...

Well I am fairly certain the MF towels are not made to leave micro fibers over everything they touch. My MF have been washed several times in the washing machine and still leave little fibers all over glass and the paint when i wipe with them. Does anyone else have this problem? Maybe I just...

I've read in several posts about how people let Meguiars NXT Tech Wax or Klasse High Gloss Sealant Glaze cure for 24 up to 48 hours. What does this mean? I am confused and my use of the search button could only led me to people saying that they let a wax cure not matter what I did. -What...

Hey I am 17 and was thinking about starting up detailing on the weekends after around christmas time where I will be getting a PC and some other supplies. My main concern is that I am scared that I will mess up someones finish. Not from me being bad at detailing, I will make sure to have...

Okay here's the deal. Christmas time is a month away and my mom wants me to go ahead and get a list togeather. So naturally, I went to www.autopia-carcare.com and started searching around because I have been waiting for this a long time and never figured out what all I wanted. My main concern...
