Things that make you say "hmmmmmmm"

Process over products.
Just ran across someone with a "Detailing" t-shirt so I struck up a casual conversation to see about products, etc., they were using. Found out a bit more than I bargained for - seems they NEVER use any kind of machine (never heard of a PC and Rotary "only puts in scratches" and is only used for body work), "sealants" are something that only new car dealers sell and is the same thing as wax (if you wax properly and keep your car clean - car wash is fine about once every other week - you can go a year or more before you have to rewax), and baby diapers to remove the wax.

I didn't bother to get his phone number.

Makes me feel a heck of a lot better about my own efforts!
 
People have been detailing by hand long before the PC. Doing things by hand isn't a bad quality in a detailer. That being said he sounded a little old-skool. He may be just not wanting to divuldge his "trade secrets".
