Arrow Intel486,

Any particular place you buy most of your car care products?

Also, do you work as a professional detailer? It seems you are very knowledgeable in this area.

From those pics, it kinda looks like you live in Metry.

Buy a lot of stuff online and by mail from places that sell products for professionals.

Getting ready to start doing mobile detailing professionally as in all the time. Right now I do it part time and my advertising is limited to word of mouth. It fills up my weekends pretty well though.

Yes, metry. OMG is it getting hot out or what?

I"m no professional detailer but I'm learning Well my old man and i have black trucks and what we do to remove them after a wash job, is we take the sprayer off the hose and run the water straight from the hose. This allows the water to stream off instead off dripping off. The streamng allows the water to just run off and allows for easier drying and eliminates water spots. The streaming creates a sheeting action which eliminates the water spots and makes the trucks look fantastic.

Yes, High volume free flowing water is great. The water will run off your paint in a sheet instead of droplets of water landing on your paint and sticking. I use it when I wash my own truck at home.

I can't do with when using a pressure washer though

I just found some stuff this weekend that removed the waterspots from my windshield easily.
It is found at Restoration Hardware.
It's called:
AMAZ - Water Stain Remover

It can be used on glass, mirrors, chrome, porcelain and tile.

It works great.

I agree with jpkaiser, A-MAZ is a great product. I just used it on my '91 which sits outside all the time. I pick it up at the glass shop.

Down the road from Nawlins...

I'm down in Gulfport, MS. Good to see a few of us aren't that far away. Sure would be nice to get some of us together on a weekend. Check out each others trucks.
