So, many people have purchased high performance American vehicles from the Chrysler SRT line-up. Many of their models come with an artificial suede material on the seats. Chrysler calls their material "Preferred Suede." Anyone have some additional products that would clean these seating...

I know many months ago, there was somebody on the forum that detailed a car, I think it was a dark red honda sedan. There were pictures of it freshly detailed, and then there were pictures of the car a few weeks after the detail, when the owner took it to the car wash a couple of times...does...

I have been detailing cars for some time, yet I have always wandered a couple of things (I will try my best to explain what I am trying to say): Why do we have to use polish and waxes the way we do (in terms of having to apply a product, then removing the product off with a towel, and then...

What are some things that the general public does wrong when they try to detail their cars? I ask this because I am doing an informative speech for one of my classes and I am just interested to hear from you folks. I have my own ideas of what the general public does wrong when detailing there...

My Dad took the Crossfire to get its oil changed at the dealership. When my dad picked it up, he drove it home without knowing what was going to happen. Then, while mid-corner, the battery light came on, and the car lost its power steering. He told me that the car could barely turn, as if the...

I was thinking of detailing the Crossfire's engine bay earlier today, but my Dad took the Crossfire to get its oil changed at the dealership. When my dad picked it up, he drove it home without knowing what was going to happen. Then, while mid-corner, the battery light came on, and the car lost...

Yep, that's right. This guy drove this truck through the woods many times. Now it was my turn to bring it back to life. Sorry for the lack of good exterior before pics, but a lack of time made me rush the pics. The interior looks a lot better than it seems as it was caked with mud all over...

Has anyone tried this polisher? I am in the market for a rotary, but the $70.00 price tag makes me worried that I won't be getting a good product. Here is a link for more info: http://www.properautocare.com/veprcipo.html Also, how much time is really saved when using a rotary in...

Yes, I know that you should start with the least aggressive polish and use more aggressive polish if those scratches are not coming out, but my question is about when you DO have to use those aggressive polishes/compounds such as SFX-1. Why is it that after using aggressive polishes you have to...

These are my two choices. Because of scholarships, Pace will be cheaper to attend then James Madison (not by alot, though), and it is closer, but Pace seems a little less prestigious than James Madison. Any suggestions? These are my only options, and I am planning on majoring in Finance...

Does autopia-carcare.com have any coupons or deals going on for autopia members?

One of my customers had their car keyed up. Do you think that I can fix the scratches using the paint repair instructs mentioned in the Autopia "Guide to Detailing" CD (using touch-up paint, toothpicks, etc...) or should I just tell this customer to get the car repainted? It's a current-model...

As some would already know, the Metropolitan Vac'N'Blo has a tendency to overheat very quickly. Can anyone give me suggestions to reduce the vacuum's ability to overheat?

Guess what guys, my friend just got finished waxing her car, the WHOLE CAR. Including: the paint, rubber bumpers, rubber door handles, rubber door sealant, etc... Well, in a couple of weeks I might be detailing her car and I was wandering if anyone would have any products suggestions to...

After a couple of uses, it was the first time to take a look at the vacuum's bag...as expected, it was filled with dust and dirt. I emptied the bag out, but big clumps of dust remained. Is the bag on the Vac'N'Blo supposed to be replaced or is there a way that I can thoroughly clean it (such...

I am in the market for a new set of polishes. I have the Sonus DAS pad kit (the orange, green, and blue pads), and I am happy about them. But I was never really that satisfied with the Sonus line of polishes simply because they did not really improve my swirls after multiple passes with Sonus...

The car was cleaned over two days, with roughly 14 hours put into it. The interior was done on one day, taking 4 hours, and the exterior took nine and a half hours to complete. Any tips to make the time shorter (it was all by myself for this one, and when I was done I had suffered from...

I always thought that the Metropolitan Vac'N'Blo was a wet/dry vac until I got it. Thankfully, I don't want to return it because I like it alot. Well, my question is whether or not it is safe to vacuum the carpet with the Vac'N'Blo after I spot cleaned and rinsed (with damp towels) the carpet...
