for Junkman
 

I added +2 reps for you!

Thanks folks! I'm new to this rep thing. I haven't figured it out yet but I can see that it must be a good thing! :D

Junkman has a TON of automotive detailing knowledge. I'm going with what he says :tup:

I am still learning! You can never know it all and the industry continually changes. ;)

:iagree::iagree::iagree:

Hey Junkman,

what do those photos have anything to do with Bounce dryer sheets? Are you saying those swirls and scratches on your photos were caused by dryer sheets?

I agree with you, taking flashes pics will reveal scratches, if I take pics of the side, rear, top of the car where i never use the dryer sheets, i'm sure the scratches still reveal. In other words, the scratches were caused by a lot of things, not because of the dryer sheets if you know how to use correctly.

I'll wait for a sunny day and detail/wax my car then take a few pics with flash and post here.

What those pictures show is improper paint maintenance. It could be anything from cheap microfiber towels to washing the car with one bucket. Anytime you touch the paint is an opportunity to scratch it so if you decide to do so, you want to do it properly.

Now you say that you will take some pics after you do a detail. I can go take pictures of mine right now and it will be swirl free. That's because I practice proper paint maintenance at all times. That way, I am not constantly cutting clear coat off my car. If your paint is cared for properly, you can go shoot it now. Not after you have had a chance to correct it. Anyone can do that. I admit that I am OCD about my paint but it cost $7000 to paint it right. Not a ticket I care to pay!

^ junkman, i saw some of your videos. I have to say i'm very impressed. You're a real pro. Props to you. you're a likable guy.

Thanks man :)

I just like nice looking rides and I was always a fan of the Z from back in the 80's. I love what they've done with the car today and really hate to see them abused. If it were up to me, you would have to qualify to own certain cars!

Hey Junkman, is it necessary to wash all your cleaning supplies after every wash? I've been doing so, but the load size is so small since I only wash microfiber together.

It is not necessary to wash your microfiber towels after every use. I can get a lot of mileage out of one towel before it needs washing. It totally depends on how much wax or polish you ae wiping off the car. If you use too much, you will be washing more often.

That stuff is worthless. I wouldn't advise anyone to waste their money on that product.

That's fine if you feel that way my friend as everyone is entitled to their own opinion. I don't have to defend my abilities as my post speak for themselves. You can't please all the people all the time so your opinion comes with the territory. I will, however, say this.

There are those of us who take pride in what we do, how we appear and anything that is associated with our name. Most of that was instilled within us by our upbringing from parents who also carried that same pride. Not all folks can walk that walk and no one is expecting them to do so. We are the few, we are the proud.

With that said, continue to use those OTC products if they give you the results you seek. That is your right granted to you by the constitution of the United States of America. I on the other hand will continue to take pride in whatever I do, and will proudly, without hesitation put my life on the line if called to do so in order that you will always be free to feel the way you do.

Peace out bro'.
