    Re: products you can't live without?

    Without a doubt, Optimum No-Rinse :props:. I seldom use a traditional car soap anymore, even during the summer.

    I agree, especially since I've just finished putting in some work on my vehicle this weekend. I used to think I would someday try to earn some extra money detailing on the side, but this is a very...

    Re: Premixed ONR

    Re: Method of Application?

    1.With the supplies available on Autogeek, it's not really necessary to use Dawn.

    2. UPGP requires 12 hours of cure time, so you can actually apply 2 coats per 24 hr. period.

    3. I haven't...

    Hats off to all of the professional detailers on these sites. Detailing has become a hobby/obsession for me over the last few years. I can't imagine doing this as a profession-it takes me a couple...

    I bought the Flex this year and still use the PC with 4" pads in hard to reach areas. The smaller pads really increase the power of the PC. I would theorize using the same setup on the more powerful...

    The reason I recommended Dawn just for this case is that he had already applied a couple coats of wax, IIRC. So if he uses Dawn to strip the wax he has already applied, I'm...
