very good tips, 55 gallon and 5 gal

You probably dont care but if you guys are bored like me atm then you can stream all the latest series on Instaflixxer. I've been binge watching with my gf for the last weeks :)

@Mohammad Maximilian yup, have been watching on Instaflixxer for since december myself :)

+Edward Bautista I was in an Advance-Auto store who informed me they sell to all the local car dealers and suggested some retail products. None of the consumer stuff I have tried works very good like you said. One of these dealers was offering $8/hr for a detailer (good luck finding someone) LOL

+heavymechanic2 what do you mean good luck finding someone?

I meant to the dealer offering work for cheap, not you.

+heavymechanic2 oh yea thats cheap. sucks for that guy detailing that car. here we charge 180 for a full detail

Not all exhaust tips are created equal, so it depends on the material of the tip: chrome plated, machined aluminum, pot metal, etc. I use anything from steel wool, to Magic Erasers, to Scotch Brite scrub pads. It just depends on the exact situation.

***** There you go, yet another way that would be very effective. Thanks!

I learned most of the products through testing them myself. I learned how to develop an eye for details as a result from very picky customers who taught me little by little all the many things people focus on as their pet peeves. I have taken numerous classes for detail training, but my customers have taught me the most when it comes to dealing with them, and developing an "eye for details".

and there you have it folks, the very voice I mentioned in the video has spoken....

Auto Fetish Detail You're actually a tad bit wrong on this on Darren. There are a FEW companies that offer "industry professional products only". Such as Opti-Coat/Opti-Guard Pro from Optimum. The general public cannot buy this stuff, and they even took Opti-Coat 2.0 off the market (a diluted version for consumers) just so they can reign it in even more. There are a few other specialty coating companies that do the same, and you have to sign up with them and meet minimum requirements (purchasing, liability insurance, etc). But, for the most part you are correct. 99.99% of the products used in detailing can be bought by the general public at the same pricing. Even most professionals can't meet the "wholesale" pricing of some places, but "commercial pricing" accounts do exist for most vendors. Every shop/vendor I've placed orders with or walked into has asked if I was a business or hobbyist. All I had to do was hand them a business card and they signed me up for their "wholesale" accounts. Which is what I think most people are referring to. Do you get different products? No. Better pricing? Yes... if you meet the minimum purchasing requirements. Heck, the guy I get my towels from gives better pricing for repeat customers if you email him vs. buying online.

***** Yes Jason, you essentially said most of what I was pointing out in the video. Most nubes think there is a secret "place" to get all this cool professional stuff for detailing. There are just so many variables that go into play when someone out there talks about wholesale detail supplies. I too have what many call "The good guy" price. I only get a discount for being a repeat customer and it's a case by case based on the product I am buying. Most guys starting out in the business are not even close to the level of buying enough product to worry abut it. And yes, there are a few select products as you mentioned, that you have to be "certified" in order to purchase. But once again, for the beginners, this is a non-issue as they should be concerned with far more other things.

You only hid your address on one paper

tire shine will take it off.

Not sure what other detailers use, but I use Rapid Remover. Works excellent. You can find it at this page in the right hand column, half way down the page. I will tell you in advance that I am having technical issues with my sites right now I am trying to resolve, but the links still work.

You are right...I shouldn't have to explain myself on many things. But I take into consideration I am dealing with a very wide customer/demographic base: absolute beginners to experienced professionals.

Well that makes it more understandable from that point of view and it only shows that you care that much and people of your make up is hard to come by

australianmade74 most of the time you can't buy direct from the manufacturer , so why don't you enlighten us on your contact ?

can you send me the contact info on the manufacturer

So noted and valid observation. As I say many times, just like every other area of my life, "I am a work in progress".
