Is your new Supa a corded or battery? I'm torn between 3401 or XCE8-125. There have been a few mentions on this forum of the battery powered XCE being a bit down on power compared to the 3401. I...
I do it a bit differently though as I'll usually give the cool engine a light mist of cleaner / degreaser or soap. I'll agitate the dirtiest areas then give it a nice...
Thanks again for posting that Guz. I do think I may be getting a mix of products on the paint and they're not getting along. Could be the Chemical Guys soap I've been using. I've used a very basic...
I've always been a big fan of 303 Aerospace Protectant. It's a little pricey but does a great job. It's fairly water soluble but once it's completely dried and cures, it seems much more durable. ...
Mike, I'm a professional detailer since 1985. I've been using Renny's Beadmaker product for the last couple of years. I love it. Recently, I've had some issues with slight hazing after...
I can go over client cars with Beadmaker just as fast as I can go over them with quick detailer and in my experience Beadmaker offers incredible durability and protection along with looking and...
The 303 Graphene is a neat product, but I am right there with you on the stickiness. Very odd. I haven't tried topping it with Beadmaker. I'm a professional detailer since 1985 working at a very...
Looks nice. I've used this stuff on a few interiors. A classic Range Rover and a '73 Rolls Royce. Great results on both and yes the technique is kind of odd. I'd like to try it on some truly...
Just applied CQuartz 2014 formulation (not UK as far as I know) to my 2007 Mini Cooper S. I've been a professional detailer for over thirty years now in the San Diego area. Did a full paint...
Romans5.8, I was in no way denigrating the guys' setup at all. I think it's awesome. I've just never had a problem with a client allowing me to plug in if electricity is available close by. In...
I don't know why it's taken me so long to join a detailing forum. Lots of shared interest here. Probably because I spend enough dang time on the internet as it is!!!!!
I run a couple of sportbike forums and do the same thing. We're pretty wide open but occasionally you still have to give someone the boot. Of course they come back under a new IP, new...
I almost always plug in but a generator is nice to have if you're totally remote. As far as the water goes, I would never use tap water to wash a car, at least not the ultra hard stuff we have in...
Thanks guys. I don't do much volume, so you don't have much to worry about as far as competition :) I mostly work for about half-dozen families that have been clients for many years. I pick up a...
Bob, no doubt you are correct. It's not 100% carnuba wax, so no doubt there are other ingredients. I just meant that it's not going to pull much of anything off your paint. Maybe a tiny bit of...
I have used this product regularly for the last year or so on many different cars of all colors that get used in many different ways. Daily drivers, show cars, vintage racers, antiques, new exotics,...
Other than my intro, this is my first post on this forum. My experience mirrors the OP. I have been detailing cars at a high level since 1985. I thought I would finally try out a clay alternative...
Greetings fellow Auto Geeks. My first name is Gregg and I have been a professional detailer since 1985. I look after car collections, buy and sell cars for clients, and of course, do very high end...
