This has been one part of my detailing regiment that I feel could improve. I simply can't get rubber floor mats clean. My process involves using a strong cleaner and agitating with a brush then a pressure wash. The texture of the rubber just seems impossible to clean. Any tips?

I have tried way to many types of sprayers and bottles. the ones I have now are junk I got them from a local store and they work terribly even the brand new ones. I end up using old CG bottles which are ok but not large enough. Any tips I want something that's good but not hugely expensive.

Picture this... you have just poured your hear and soul into a long 14 hour detail. You haven't missed one bit of grime or dirt on the car, the rims and wheels look brand new. You have polished the paint to produce mirror reflections. The surface has been coated multiple times with wax. She...

Sometimes I like to add this onto some of the SUVs I detail. Other than this I just make neat parallel lines with alternating up and down strokes. How do you think this looks (hopefully I will get better at doing it). I think it might add a nice personal touch, but lets hear some opinions.

I have been meaning to try this for a while after hearing that it was a great combo from Barry Theal and Accumulator. So here is some of the detail on a beautiful G35 coupe. The car had bad swirling and some deeper scratches. There were also holograms courtesy of a previous detailer. Also the...

I recently got a call from a friend who was selling her car. The vehicle was an older Mazda 3 that had light colored cloth seats that hasn't seen a good detail in ..... well ever. See for yourself the toll the years had on these seats. So I got the car started with my detail process. I...
