Myths. Heres
a few:
1)Ferraris arent fast.
2) there is no money in Paintless
Dent Removal
3) There was never a man on
the moon.
Ok, so those
ARENT myths, but, below you
WILL find some great detailing
myths...some you may be aware
of, and others might just
enlighten you..
Myth #1.
Detailing is easy.
Wrong. No trip to Pep Boys
for the wash bucket and soap
will make you a detailer.
Myth #2.
Washing a car is simple- anyone
can do it.
Wrong. Anyone can ATTEMPT
it, but many will cause damage
to clearcoats, interior, engines,
wheels and more.
Myth #3.
Waxing a car is easy- just
get some Turtle wax and away
you go.
Wrong again. Waxing a car
is a step by step procedure
that when done wrong can again,
cause DAMAGE. And Turtle Wax?
Be real..
Myth #4.
Coffee stains are impossible
to get out.
Wrong Joseph. These are one
of the easiest stains to remove.
Myth #5.
Gum and Melted crayons are
impossible to remove.
Yup, wrong. Im not going to
tell how to do it here though!
Myth #6.
Engine Detailing is simple-
just get a hose or a pressure
washer and you are set.
WRONG! Engine electronics
are VERY sensitive these days,
and you need to be careful
when attempting to work near
an engine. So, dont attempt
unless you know the steps.
HINT- pressure washers are
not a good idea, pal!
Myth #7.
Palmolive is a great car wash
soap.
WRONG. Dish detergents will
strip waxes and oils from
your paint...drying it out
and making it very ugly in
no time.
Myth #8.
Orbital buffers are great
for waxing. Your hand is just
as good, and orbital buffers
can cause damage if youre
not careful.
Myth #9.
Hi Speed buffers are the way
to apply wax like a pro.
Wrong, unless you like paint
or clearcoat burnt off of
your clients car. Try medium
or low speed.
Myth #10.
Waterspots cannot be removed.
Wrong-there are acids we use
to remove them nicely.
Thats it
for now. I could go on until
next Tuesday with common myths,
but we have some customer
cars to tend to!
