Hi,
First off I have to say thank you for the time and effort that AG forum members have put into providing so much helpful information. Lurking in this forum I have been able to find answers to just about every question I have had.
I have been trying to learn every thing I can about detailing. This started a couple months back when I bought a new car and decided to take my 01 TT off the road and fix it up. Then I started to look closely at my new (used) car and realized it was in pretty bad shape too. It was an executive fleet car in a prior life and looks to have been through many a car wash and dealership details.
So after reading info here and watching YouTube vids from AG, CG, AmmoNyc, and The Junkman, I believe the best thing for me to do is to start off practicing on my wife's Toyota :) then move on to my cars. I did do the roof of my TT because it was quite oxidized. I used CG V34 V36 and V38. It came out ok I would say. I do not have a garage so the car has been exposed to New England weather for 13 years.
My long term goal once my IT job is outsourced to China will be to sell the farm and move the wife and kids to St. John USVI, open a detailing business and tend bar nights.
Using:
Rupes 21 with 5" plate/washer mod
Rupes mini
CG Hex foam pads, Megs MF cutting pads
CG V Line, Menzerna FG400, SIP, 4000, 4500
CG JetSeal
P21S concourse
01 TT 225 Q
07 FJ Cruiser
08 S5
Thanks again,
Carl
