    Re: What did you do today, in regards to detailing?

    ClearVue18 great thing to let the kid help you out and help him out with money to get the sneakers he wanted. Not many take the time these days to let kids help out.

    Today is going to be a shopping day with the family. I will look for a little frame with wheels on it. To DIY it to the new nozzle head from Kärcher so I get a undercarriage wash system. Still not the time to take out the hoses and turn on the outside water outlet. Cause still have freezing temperature during the nights. Tonight we set the clock forward 1 hour for summertime. The spring is coming soon. And need to fix the last to do the spring detailing.

    Beadmaker are gifts for a couple of friends, though I might sneak a couple of squirts out of them just to see what the big deal is all about.

    is it me or does this kid know what He's doing ? the level of concentration & technique is awsome ! that was nice of you to trust this kid to help out. I would have been a little worried having Him walking around with that wand. but I'll tell you He's got this. you may have a future part time helper. I'm sure when this kid see's you using some of the tools of the trade His eye's will light up. He'll be all in wanting to learn more. nice job man.

    My customer told me he comes in her hair salon and sweep the floors there every day so I believe I can find him. That sounds like a great idea.

    "Sweeps the floors everyday", stories like this help restore my faith in humanity, especially with what young and younger people have for role models today in TV, music and sports! Self reliance IS a thing and when people notice what your doing when it's the right thing to do, well, "things begin to happen".

    Keep us posted and if need be, start a thread for it, seriously!
