A continuous supply of air at 12-13 cfm is a high demand from a home compressor. My old shop compressor was an 5hp Ingersol Rand, 2 stage, 230v single phase, 80 gallon that was rated at 15cfm@90psi....
The alcantara headliner is pretty easy, if you don't smoke or have kids putting their grubby paws on it, the only cleaning chemical you will normally need is water. A couple times a year, brush it...
Another good way to avoid chipping your paint with a pressure washer is to always point the nozzle at the ground and away from the car before pulling the trigger. One the start up pressure can be...
One of the problems with durable knee ads like Snap On or Alta is that they use rivets to attach the hard shells onto the pads. The rivets are recessed but it they can still scratch your paint. If...
Gravity will help and hurt you here. Whatever you use you just want to clean the fabric shell and not get the insulation wet. If you blot the stain with a damp...
I recently got a gallon of the Mckee's iron remover. It may not work quite as fast as Iron X, but it still works just as well. It's $20 less a gallon, doesn't smell as bad and if you get it on your...
I have the adjustable height heavy duty Gorilla platform from home depot. The extendable leg stabilizers help a little, but if I really need to lock it down a sand bag across each of the lower cross...
Did you have any work done on the brakes? Brake fluid can discolor paint like that and a little bit of brake fluid goes a long ways. If you didn't you might want to get...
I'm sure the glaze is doing the same thing as the glass polish Mike Philips recommended. If I was detailing professional i would give the glaze/polish a try. If it's one of those things that can...
That's a great explanation for why my lawn mowing business failed. I developed a reputation for good and inexpensive work. I couldn't afford to do both, and customers would be indignant about...
I don't have any experience with hydro blue. I don't think that my cars get clean enough for a sealant/wax/coating with just a pressure washer. I don't use a foam cannon often, but even when I do...
We had two F650's that were parked on the back of the lot and were infested with mice. It was around $2000 per vehicle for hazmat cleanup and all that was left of the interiors were the steering...
Before you ass-u-me that acetone or other solvents won't damage your clear coat, spot check an inconspicuous area first. Spot test, wait a week, check and make sure that clear coat hasn't been...
I don't know. I remember when a 30 car pileup would make national news, and the big ones, 100+, happened maybe every coupe of years. Now it seems like there are four or five 50+ pileups a year and...
Dawn dish soap has a PH of 7.4. There are plenty of PH neutral flooring strippers. PH neutral doesn't have anything to do with stripping wax and sealants. If anything in the Dallas area I would...
I've been happy with Griot's, I go about about 4 months between applications, it'll still be hanging on at 6 months. I've found that when possible using spray detailer instead of glass cleaner will...
Looks like the remnants of a botched clear bra removal, i.e. solvents and scrapping, except I would have expected the line across the hood to be better defined.
From personal experience pre-treating a spot directly with dawn will work, but removing the soap will be more work than some of the other alternatives. If you don't get the soap out you'll end up...
