    Re: Advise need for mobile part time start up

    Most people spend less than 3 minutes looking on my site. I want them to quickly and easily find the info they are looking for. Sometimes those fancy sites have to much going on.

  6. Re: Enter HERE for a chance to try New Griot's Garage products!

    The Boss 15 has become my favorite polisher. It's actually the only Griot's product I have ever used so I would love to see some of their other stuff. Count me in.
  7. Re: Pros, how long do you take to do a "full detail" on a sedan?

    It depends what you have for equipment. It would take me between 3 1/2 and 4 1/2 hrs depending on condition. By full detail I'm referring to my deluxe detail.
