Default detailing 101

There is an art to proper car detailing and honing in on this art means the difference in a 50 dollar car wash and a 500 dollar show-ready detail. To demonstrate proper techniques, I mosey accross the street and shine up Bob the Neighbor's caddy:

Nice guide there You are def right about there being an art to it. I've seen plenty people try do all types of shit to their paint to get it like new again only to burn it/make it look worse than it did before (Hell, I've done it in the past) I still love some good ol' mother's can of wax for the regular stuff

Good advice, most people have no idea how to take care of there paint. Me and a friend of mine have a little detailing buisness we run out of his garage. We have about 20 or so regular customers that are our neighbors and friends or whatnot. Usually have a couple cars every weekend. Puts a little extra cash in the pocket. Were looking into getting a REAL garage and starting a detailing/wheel and tire shop.
