Master Toto, It don't seem like the cars are around long after you finish detailing them.

I totally agree, seems like every car that Toto details either the owner is right there to pick it up or it gets sold right after Toto is done with them.

Well done Toto

Gary: that's just the way the dealer likes it LOL! Actually the white car and the black X5 I'm doing now are pre-sold (as was the Z4 I did last week). He wants me to do any pre-sold car first...for obvious reasons. Then, I move to unsold units.

Working on the Black X5 now that was busting my chops swirl-wise until I tried some new 3M products the dealer just received.

3M stuff huh, I've herd of these products not sure how good they are though. I have noticed that they use these products lots in professional auto body shops. Looking forward to see what you think of them Toto.

Nica: 3M stuff is definitely coming from the body shop environment. They have field reps who make sales calls on body shops and sell pretty much bulk sized quantities.

There products work, no doubt about it. So do all the Auto Geek products. For instance, the Trizact Perfect-It compound is very similar (to me anyways) with Optimum Hyper Compound.

The Trizact Swirl Remover is a new product and it's tough to find a comparison. I suspect it was formulated for use with a rotary and their new swirl removal pad (very, very soft light blue waffle pad).

I'll take some pics of the system.

Toto have you tried 3M's SRC (Scratch Resistant Clear) polish yet?

[Totoland Mach]

Russecu: No, I haven't, but will mention it to the dealer. He has a 3M rep call on him from time-to-time. Also, he is friends with the PDR guy that does work for him and is 3M knowledgeable.

Thanks for the info

Thanks I called a bodyshop supply around here and they haven't heard of it. I asked if they carry the 3M line and they did. I am guessing its maybe like the Menzerna that we hear about but I am not putting it in that class b/c I haven't seen any pics or heard any reviews about it. It definately seems more expensive than most of 3M's polishes and compounds. I think it is Finesse-it SRC. Thanks
