Griot's Garage 6" polisher with 3", 5", and 6" backing plates. It was bought last summer, before the newest model came out. I've upgraded to a Flex, so I'm getting rid of this one.
I hate to bring a dead thread back to life, but I got to on this one. I've been thinking about using a rinseless wash on mobile jobs, but I just can't see how you could truly get wheels and tires...
Is it just me, or does cotton absorb moisture better than microfiber? I know that if you take a 500g microfiber towel and a 500g cotton towel and submerge both in water, the microfiber towel will...
I just ordered an 1800 psi electric pressure washer, and I'll have it next week. I've never had a pressure washer before. What steps in the detail process does the pressure washer really speed up the...
I've recently added HF acid to my arsenal for heavily neglected wheels. I've found that some plastic center caps are completely unaffected by it, while other plastic center caps will be bleached...
Well if you've ever polished a section to what seems to be a swirl free finish, then had an IPA wipedown reveal swirls that were filled and hidden by things in the polish, then I guess that would...
I had a tennant carpet extractor, but I love my rigid wet/dry vac so much that I was constantly reaching for it instead of the extractor, so I sold the extractor on CL (for $75 more than I paid for...
I was at Waffle House the other day, and there was this guy there cleaning the windows. He's with a commercial window cleaning company. Glass is one of my least favorite parts of a detail, so I ask...
MF pads are definitely gonna get ordered soon. I figure I'll use MF for cutting, but I'm concerned that they won't finish down as well as foam, so I'll use foam for polishing and 1 step AIO's.
I randomly saw this sealant mentioned in a thread and started looking it up. The product description states that it will hide light swirls, meaning it's got fillers. This immediately piqued my...
It's time to replace some worn out pads. I love my hydrotechs, but am wondering if the hybrids are even better. My philosophy is why would a company release a new product line unless it's better than...
I still had to go back with soapy water (or APC and water) and a rag or brush, but blowing them out first with the air compressor got A LOT of stuff out, like crumbs and dust. As an...
I bought a cheap air compressor the other day. This is the first time I've detailed with compressed air, and it was amazing! Blowing out air vents, buttons, door pockets, cup holders, and seams was a...
I think the way you did the invoice is perfect- a price quote and a break down of everything that's done. Make sure you list every detail. More steps on paper makes the job look harder to do and more...
I'm having a problem with my spar. I read about somebody using wooden popsicle sticks to stir the spar/ms mixture, so that's what I've been doing. You can buy brand new popsicle sticks from arts and...
Thanks for the info. The main reason I got the Tornador was to cut down my time since I'm about to try to pick up a few dealerships. They'll definitely be bringing the cars to my house, so powering...
