    Not many LSP’s will play nice with the glass. I avoid spraying any on the glass and then give the glass a wipe down with my drying towel after drying the paint to just give the glass a tiny bit of the residual from the towel. Otherwise you’ll be buffing that stuff off the glass for days.

    I liked you straight forward presentation of products today. I feel your product choices are pretty solid, but I have not used any Superior products. I do use the P&S Interior products (except in my own car, in which I use Ammo Products) and they are much better (effective) and more cost effective than many other products. It seems you are targeting mid-market vehicles so you are off to a good start and I am sure you will refine a few of your product choices over time. I am a hobbyist who details family, friends and neighbor's vehicles. I use several higher end products that you are not using, but I am not trying to make a specific profit margin. There are detailers who target the luxury car market that use better and more expensive products. Perhaps that is in your future. I think you have made wise choices. I would like to say I enjoy you channel so far because you do a very good job in articulating your reasoning processes. You have an awareness and thoughtfulness that most small business owners do not. I feel you will succeed because you are very clear-headed, analytical and have common sense. You would probably succeed in any other similar venture.

So try this out in a 32oz bottle: * 13 oz P& Xpress * 13 oz distilled water * 3 oz Super Clean * 3 oz of your dressing of choice You can play with the numbers as you want more cleaning ability or more shine from the dressing.

    Jess looks like you have done some good research on your chemicals. I myself use different chemicals. I like for Adam’s car shampoo Adam’s wheel cleanser and they usually have a 30% For interior and wheel dressing I like Carpro Perl dilution. I like Koch Chemie Green Star and Pol star for cleaning dilution pennies. Floor mats Koch Chemie gummifix. Then I have a detail spray Adam’s slick & shine and there regular detail spray clay lubricant. I have Adam’s iron remover. And I use IPA for windows and for after I polish car before I do a sealant or ceramic coating.
