    Re: Antique cars - need advice

    This is a great idea. I own an old Corvette convertible and the car is far from waterproof. A full wash means a wet trunk carpet so waterless washes work great. I am positive a lot of other older...

    You are completely right. What was I thinking? Hug first then smash! I always get those two confused dammit.

    Re: Driving behind someone, what frustrates you?

    Don't know if this was mentioned or not but sometimes it's not even a driver that frustrates me. Here in PA our highways are under continual maintenance (don't even ask about our Turnpike which they...

    Wow, I thought I didn't like my neighbors but they are a blessing compared to that. Unless we were close friends I'd be hard pressed not to grab my old Louisville and give him a few areas to polish...

    Re: Finding clients, need suggestions

    I would think word of mouth is huge in the detailing business, both good and bad. See if you can detail some friends and family cars at a lesser rate. Assuming you're going to do an awesome job, have...

    Re: remarks from neighbors 2

    I've used that line myself. I have a lot of employees too (I'm not a professional detailer) that ask me to detail their cars, but I have a real hard time taking money from them so I pass.

    Re: klasse is in the house

    Klasse AIO is pretty easy to use and works great. Keep it thin and you'll be fine. Using a DA makes it easy too.

    Klasse high gloss sealant is a bit more difficult. Apply it whisper thin or you be...

    Re: Replacement for Zaino Z-16-Tire Gloss

    You can find it on Autogeek by going directly to Optimum's page. It is a pretty good tool except you need to use a 32 oz bottle with it. An actual paint gun would be more universal.

    I actually use...

    Not that I'm defending this guy because I agree with everyone here. He should be in jail for admitting on camera that he murders 15 cars in 28 days. BUT, he did make that old beater look better and...

    Re: Custom interiors!

    LMAO! God I hope I don't have to detail that car. I agree that no human with a pair of testicles would or should be seen driving that car.

    Re: Please tell me I'm not alone.

    Little obsessed? I am full blown crazy obsessed. I run out to the garage every few hours just to see the different reflections as the sun changes. Then I wonder how I can make it even more shiny!

    Re: The Post a Picture of Your Ride as it Sits Thread

    Thanks! It truly is sitting today. I have the carburetor out and I'm currently re-building it. Well, my buddy is doing most of the re-building while I make sure the beer is cold, lol.

    No problem, to each there own! I personally like everything shiny on my cars. Shiny paint (especially polished black) and matte wheels just doesn't look right to me. It almost makes the car look...

    Re: Replacement for Zaino Z-16-Tire Gloss

    Here are some pics with Optibond on two of my cars using the spray method. I don't know how they compare to Z-16 since it is one of the few tire dressings I have not used, but this method delivers...

    I'm currently using Optibond and really like it. I bought every tire dressing known to man and never found one I liked. I honestly didn't like Optibond either. That is until a man named Richy shared...

    Re: So Many To Choose

    I agree those towels are not for waterless washes. Great for everything else though. I loke the 600 and have plenty of them but I also like CG's Sasquatch Maximus. Try a couple of those next WW.

    Re: CarPro Hydro2 vs Permanon Platinum

    That's it. It is hard to describe because it's not a typical streak mark. It's kind of blotchy and really shows up in sun light. The first car i applied it to looked like it had leopard skin spots. ...
