Nicely done!
This is what a good forum is all about...
You're going to learn a lot and have a good time too!
Any updates?
How did the owner react when you returned to him the keys to a shiny, white truck without any concrete splatter?

Just a shout-out to Eric!
It was great meeting you and having you in my recent detailing class...

Mike,
Thank you for taking the time to post all of these pictures and give me a shout out! Being able to attend your class was a dream come true. After spending so much time on here reading all of your articles and watching your videos it meant a lot to have the opportunity to receive hands on training from you.
I learned so much over the weekend and it was nice getting a lot of tips on little things that have enabled me to speed up my detail process. The cars you got for us to work on were amazing and getting the chance to use so many top notch tools and products made it even that much better. A big thank you to you and the rest of the AutoGeek staff that made this possible.
Hi Eric,
Thanks for the kind words and also thank you for trying out the Back Set referenced in this thread to remove concrete overspray.
Since you tested out and posted your success story and pictures of removing concrete overspray, I've shared this thread with at least 2 other people dealing with concrete overspray on paint and I'm sure I'll be sharing the link to this thread with even more people into the future...
That's the power of a forum and good forum friends...

Amazing work.
So sad.....
I just received an e-mail from a guy asking
What to use to remove concrete splatter
I always point people to this thread. Now the pictures have disappeared. The info is still good but still...
:dunno:
I also heard Vinegar is supposed to help remove concrete/cement. Can anybody confirm that?
Thanks
:bump:
GREAT NEWS!
Eric sent me the original pictures for this concrete removal detail job. I've uploaded them and then inserted them into Post #6 of this thread.
Thanks Eric!
I know this will help others and give them the confidence to take-on any concrete removal detailing jobs using the Back Set by RoMix.
