I know how you feel. Shortly after taking an interest in detailing, a friend took me to a high end exotic dealership in Chicago. Masteratis, Bentleys, Ferraris and Lambos littered the floor, with...
Haha I had this same problem when I set up AGO.net on my Google Reader. It doesn't display the emoticon images but rather the text code, so I see IM the man and thumbs a lot Im the MAN :xyxthumbs:
I have some history with HB, I have 1 aunt who lives off Beach Ave and another that lives in Newport Beach. Also got my first tattoo done at HB Tattoo on Beach Ave. Lovely place...
As long as we're all giving away our locations to strangers online... :xyxthumbs:... I lived in Aurora for 15 years, grew up near the corner of Eola and...
Wow very reasonable. I'll definitely be trying this out. If you want a real challenge you should come down to Champaign and try Fat Sandwich's Big Fat Ugly. Cheeseburgers, cheesesteak, chicken...
Sweet, my parents still live in Aurora, I'll have to catch this next time I visit. How much does it cost if you don't win the challenge? (not that I'm not up for it :xyxthumbs:)
Agreed, if anything a manufacturer will overestimate the amount of product you should use because 1) they don't want to risk shortchanging you on performance and losing a customer and 2) they would...
Good to know about the ease of buffing, I've tried DP's WW and it leaves a ton of streaks that require a lot of buffing. Ultima seems like a much more cost effective product and I'll definitely be...
I actually find the tip about using it on faucets to prevent water stains the most useful. Sure beats keeping a moldy rag on your countertop to wipe up the water.
Haha that's the part that gets me, just hearing about someone taking sandpaper to a $250,000+ car makes my skin crawl :eek: Granted, these are professionals with plenty of wet sanding experience, but...
My thoughts are that 1 step/product around the whole car would be the most efficient. When you consider all the pad, product and maybe even backing plate/tool changes you have to make in between...
I know if you're looking at this thread you enjoy perusing detail jobs just as much as I do, so I just wanted to share some pics of my first machine polished detail for you to...
I've bought 2 of those $5 packs at Walmart. They work great for drying wheels and getting smudges off trim/chrome, but that's all I use them for. I don't even like using them on my windows as they're...
Agreed, great photos of some less than popular detailing areas. You've really made something often overlooked, such as the trunk hydraulics and hoses, a real treat in these photos.
Well, basic Economics states that if incomes go down (and/or unemployment goes up) then demand for services (like detailing) goes down as well. The idea is to keep marketing to households with a high...
Unless someone chimes in as to why you shouldn't use Megs Ultimate Protectant on hoses, I'll have to recommend it. I did my engine bay at the beginning of the summer and it still looks like the day I...
