From what I've seen most HVLP's are requiring 9-12 CFM. I don't have a ton of experience with HVLP spraying at this point, so very open to input and things to consider. For power source I have a skid mount in my van - the heart of which is a 9 hp Honda motor which I can use to give me direct...

Hey all, I'm going to be doing some HVLP spraying and was wondering if there is a recommended portable air scrubber I could use to help handle the typical lingering plume of product in the air. If any extra specifics are needed just let me know - any recommendations are very much appreciated...

Hey all, Looking for some recommendations here. I own an auto detailing business and we specialize in paint polishing and applying ceramic coating. At our shop we have a nice 80 gal IR compressor thats been a complete beast for us, but I'm in need of a reliable compressor I can put into our...

Hey man, It kind of depends upon the type of grime. If you're dealing with something like tar, then a product such as Tar X (or a similar type of tar remover) will work. If it's just really baked in lower body grime, then a citrus based all purpose cleaner (diluted down 1:10 typically) can...

Whats up everyone. Hope you're all having a good weekend so far. This past week at the Windows and Wheels Detailing Shop we decided to get together and shoot a "How To" video of how we go about doing our maintenance washes...with a little extra. This was definitely a team effort. I...

Lol, well, we do get contacted from people all over. Some actually do come in from out of state for us to work on. He has homes both here in Az and up in Canada. After he picked it up in Canada he drove it to Az and right to us :3gears: !

I agree, the grille is much nicer and i like the rocker kit they added as well. I liked the Blue/Black combo of the one we did - I havent yet seen the red in person though. I can't argue the shark grey z06 love though lol...it is awesome. Thank you! My Camaro is a daily driver (about 70 miles...

Lol, pretty extreme! We've done crazier things but I thought these two lovelies were worth posting :) Ideally the results from this work should last years. The quickest way to undo the work done here, like anything else, is with poor maintenance. Tunnel car washes, brushes and other abrasive...

They did do a great job designing it. I was soooo iffy about the C7 when first released, but i'm quite fond of it now as well. Have you seen the new Camaro ZL1? I was kinda "eh" about the new Gen 6 SS (I have a Gen 5 SS), but when i saw the new Gen 6 ZL1...I found much love for it lol! The fact...

The next morning when the owner came to pick up – he was quite blown away (which never…ever…gets old). Serious gloss: The Z06 turned out equally as stunning: Now our “house policy” is – if you have CQuartz Finest applied to your car – we do the first follow up wash. While we...

It’s March 2017 - the weather is getting hot here in Az and so are the cars in the W&W shop. Last week we had a lot of gloss and a lot of horse power sitting in the shop. Two C7 Corvettes – one a black convertible and the other a Shark Grey z06. I don’t care who you are – getting to come to...

Hey everyone, Finally wrapped up editing a video thats been sitting in Final Cut for longer than I care to admit! I put together the best "touchless" wash process I've come up with so far. I've tried several different products and techniques and while I still say a full hand wash is idea, this...

Thank you! If it was a boat or an RV with super thick gel coat - then i would be comfortable using a chemical cleaner to remove the oxidation. But with this paint being the age it was and the history behind it, i did not want to chance using a harsh chemical on it. Rather safe than sorry with...

Hahaha, i couldn't agree more. I dont think they've gone this many years preserving the original paint to go and have it re-painted anytime soon, so I'm pretty sure she's safe the way she is :) Thank you! Yes it being in Arizona helps - but they do still drive it quite a bit. After we did our...

A bit more to go... Yeah the GMC emblem...Dani did her toothbrush trick to it again too...came out pretty nice. All the front grill chrome, headlight areas, edges of the engine bay etc....yeah...all that...done by hand as well: Door handles...and around them...yup...you guessed it...
