Hi Guys

Great site, have been visiting for a few days and really learned alot. Love cars and love clearning cars (neighbours think i am mad) :) .

Thinking of setting up my own Detailing business in the UK in the Fall, so guess i'll be after lots of advice:xyxthumbs

Used lots of products in the past includig Zymol and P21s both really good, but am now a Megs convert like the rest of ya.

Few pics of my car that i detailed yesterday i used:

GC Shampoo
Quik Clay (first time)
Show Car Glaze
NXT Wax (2 coats)
Endurance Tyre Shine
Quik Detailer just to tidy up!

Apologies for the quality of the pics the weather was awful.

Cheers all

Rob

Thanks for the welcome Mike

I've just been looking at Niz's Black Viper, a link from the 'How to use Scratch X' thread. WOW! fantastic shine, have to get myself one of those Porter Cables.

I'm in Naples FL. in March so maybe pick one up then..

Here's a reflection shot Niz took after polishing out his Viper's finish and using NXT Tech Wax,

Don't sweat it, my neighbors think I'm a lil bit crazy as well. Out there in minus 5 Celcius temperatures with the G-100 PC going at the Benz like a possessed man!:rofl:

But on the plus side. I've already got a few of em asking me to do their cars once the spring gets here. Have fun, and enjoy the wealth of knowledge alot of these guys have.
