If your soap doesn't do that, then you're using some crappy soap.

Just used these cloths for the first time last night - highly recommended. No scratching anywhere, super soft and easy to clean.

Now for some new news. The Rag Company has implemented a new shipping policy. Until further notice, everyday is "PIMPIN" FREE FRIDAY!" That's right folks, every minimum order of $30 ships for FREE every day of the week! Add to that, most orders ship priority so you get your towels super fast. Just to give you an idea as to how fast (for those of you who don't already know), here's one of my orders that traveled 1,885 miles and made it to my front door in less than 48 hours!!!
As if that ain't good enough news, they have also implemented a discount for all military, fire/rescue and police members! The details are posted on their Facebook page. Enter your respective code and receive a 5% discount on top of their already shockingly low prices, It appears that The Rag Company is in a "sharing the luv" mood so get to gettin' while the gettin' is good!

PS I think I watched your video of how to use a Porter Cable a couple years ago when I first started to really think about buying a polisher/random orbital. |

Wasn't familiar with Junkman's videos so this was my first exposure. Sounded a whole lot like a sales pitch at first glance. Skeptical, I watched several more videos, and what do you know...
Sir I do believe I like the cut of your jib.

Junkman, you should get yourself a BRZ/FR-S for your weekend car.

I try to bring to the novice detailer the information that so many other folks make difficult to understand. Add to that, the many different opinions expressed on detailing forums is enough to drive you batty. What I try to do is make people think for themselves and use common sense to sift through all the hype. That's half the battle on the Internet and once you break down that barrier, this stuff starts to get real simple. My goal is to share what I know, what I find and to make learning about detailing fun. I want to bring my information in a format that your girlfriend will see you watching and find it interesting. As long as I keep it simple and fun, then I will succeed. I couldn't handle having two nice cars. The way people drive around here, I'd end up with ulcers.
