I started at 14... It's been great to me all throughout high school (17 now btw). Congrats on starting your own gig!

The $30-40 hourly rate seems pretty common on this forum.. To me, if I can earn...

It will cut your work time and make your life easier... IMO, invest in a good one, otherwise it is useless. Expect to spend between $350-500. Good luck!

So to clarify, is there any possibility of a PC7424XP being useful on a boat detail? I have a boat scheduled two weeks from now and may have to buy a rotary... Thoughts?

I am interested to see what can be done about this... Traditionally, matte doesn't get buffed at all. BUMP

Hey AG,
It's about that time, when I must order another six pack of 5.5" pads for my PC... I am coming off of six LC-CCS 5.5's, and to be honest, I'm not overly impressed. In comparison to...

Good morning AG! It's been a while.. A friend of mine bought himself a 2011 Mercedes-Benz E350 in Obsidian Black. It is a gorgeous car, with the AMG-Style Wheels, Tan Leather, Etc... He asked me what...

I recently bought a black 2003 Hummer H2, and I LOVE IT! They are a great choice, impress clients as somewhat of a specialty vehicle, and the gas isn't as bad as it would seem...
However, the...

This is my problem! Didn't understand the use of it so discarded without thinking... Hopefully I have some sort of replacement available around here, otherwise I'll be making another order today....

Good morning autogeek!

Today I am performing a full detail on a 2012 VW Passat TDI. The customer wants me to apply Simoniz System 5 to the paint for added winter protection.

I was unsure about...

Gorgeous truck! My father drives the Raptor regularly, as a gm of local ford dealership. IMO, the trim isn't very welcoming to protectants. It seems different, and may not even require any...

Also, be careful when working with black or dark colored paints. I don't recommend using aggressive clay, unless needed. I scratched up an Audi a4 pretty badly, and it took several more compounding...

IMO, Turtle Wax is usually NOT the "go-to" in my cabinet. However, their Ice Synthetic Polish is able to hide paint imperfections such as minor scratches and front end pitting rather easily. I apply...

I give you props x1000 for trying this on a Shelby!! The risk was worth the reward. Great job!!

Well, I'm glad that some of you were able to snatch some up... Every year they have a sale on things like applicator pads, brushes, etc. for like pennies on the dollar. If they closeout all Mirror...

Hey Autogeek,
I just went to my local auto parts store for some sanding discs, and noticed some Final Inspection on the clearance rack next to some of the discs I needed.

So, out of curiosity I...
