Wow that came out excellent, nice job!

Had a Harley customer ask me if I could ceramic coat the chrome bits on his 2016 Low Rider including the exhaust. I told him probably not but honestly not really sure since I never had anyone ask me...

^ This, that’s probably your issue. Make sure you clay bar the hell out of the paint first. Your probably just picking up a ton of contaminates.

You don’t need to be concerned using a white pad...

Just use iron-x, clay bar will cause the coating to fail prematurely. The only coating safe clay bar I know of is 22ple but I have not tested. Normally for my own car and clients I recommend -...

I have corrected several Toyota’s (newer) and all of them had a pretty hard clear coats and it took a lot of time to level down it the defects. Being a 2016 I can’t imagine that the clear coat would...

Yeah I can see where that could be an issue. 95% of my details are out of the sun so I’ll keep that in mind if I ever have to clay bar in the sun.

I bought one of these after being skeptical for a long time. After years of using clay bar It’s officially my least favorite part of the detailing process so I finally bit the bullet and picked up...

You sound exactly like me but I am in fact crazy lol. I am a Network Administrator of a large law firm and I still have a Detailing business on the side. I usually work my full time job between...

That looks fantastic, nice work! I find it hard to work with GM paint, well at least with the 2017 Silverado I just did a couple weeks ago. It had some hard ass clear coat....

That’s pretty awesome. I mean they better not be screwing up McLaren paint! I think they can afford to hire qualified retailers though.

Those are OEM optional I believe.

Finally got some above freezing temps this weekend and tackled this beast. I don't know what it is with this Chevy's paint but it was extremely difficult to work with, I still am not completely...

I agree with you, He was just in a rush to get into a new vehicle. When I bought my brand Accord I told them to not even take the plastic off and they were happy to do what I wanted. I wouldn’t have...

I just couldn't believe my eyes so I had to share this with my Autogeek friends.

One of my good buddies bought a brand new Chevy 1500 High Country from a dealer in CT. He immediately gave me a...

Excellent, That was going to be my next question if claying could possibly shorten the life of the coating. "Can I decontaminate using IronX" Guess the answer to that is yes. Thanks!

So this year I have been applying GTechniq CSL and EXO V3 to most of my customers cars. I have been super happy with the product and the feedback from my customers has been very positive. I had a few...

Wow, thats a lot of pads and polishers lol. I normally use 3 pads for compound and 2-3 for polish. Guess I need to step up my game. Thanks for the response!

Hi Mike, I have a question about the pad washer. I am thinking about purchasing the Universal Grit Guard washer today. Can this be used to clean the pads "on the fly" with my Rupes 21? I guess the...

Starting to take on a lot more volume of cars lately and I am considering to purchase a Grit Guard Universal Pad Washer while there is 20% off today. My main question is can this washer be used for...

Did you look on eBay? Might be more U.K. Lights there. Don't you guys have hardware stores that carry Par38 bulbs or is too pricey locally?

Oh 1800lm. Sorry thought you said 1200. It might be "overkill" but I don't think it will cause any issues. Is that your only option in the U.K.? If so, then I'd give it a shot and return if it...

Should be fine, I am using 1200 lumen bulbs and it's perfect!

Took on my first Motorcycle client today which was a very dirty and swirled 2012 Harley Road Glide. No where near as difficult as I thought it would be but had its challenges in the hard to reach...

I have been using Mr. Pink with my Gtechniq EXO for 12 months and the coating is still super hydrophobic and I don't see anything left behind.

This is the best thread....EVER. Absolutely love this setup and it gives off some serious light and should show imperfections with ease. My car isn't a good example since it doesn't have any...
