DarrenWS6,

Could you please fill us in on what products and process you used to detail a Chevy into a Ford?

You sure do. You'll like it. Cut it with a little bit of Vodka... it's fantastic.

It's nice to have all the great products we have today... and they do help. However, as you guys already know, it's still all about "process", correct tools, procedures and and as MP would say "passion".
Sound familiar, JP??

Gip, wash solutions is in the middle of moving their warehouse right now, when are you coming through town? It may be possible for me to give you a bottle of my stock then I can pick some up later.

Ahhh -- there certainly was a day when I would wax-on about the attributes of various QD's and their proper application.

I guess having a 2-year-old boy has bludgeoned some of the OCD out of me, as these days I'm generally just happy if the vehicle has had a recent wash......

Try getting in touch with me around that time. If you are really coming through FW and not Dallas, I can pick up some up for you and have it at the house so you don't have to go into the "city"

Just thinking outloud.

cool .. YEs, we always take 35w around FW and on to Waco ..

I never go through Dallas unless I have to .. takes too long, and then dumps me on the wrong side of Houston, which adds another hour to the drive.
