This business is eager to please. How many businesses can you say that about these days? The Rag Company FTW. Even Chuck Norris likes them!

If the military taught me anything, it taught me the KISS method:

Keep It Simple Stupid.

Awesome vid Junkman! I found it real easy to listen to and watch without getting annoyed or bored like some of the other detailing vids out there.
Way to keep it entertaining and still informative.

Found this just in time to place an order tomorrow and feel like a PIMP.

Sounds like you are new to my videos. I have over a hundred out there and trust me when I say, they are NOTHING like other detailing videos on You Tube. Welcome to the party. You have only just begun

Watched the video and will be looking up more this weekend. Placed an order, can't wait to get those towels in! Any suggestions on keeping your whip clean during the winter?

For someone like me with a heated garage, I don't do anything different year round except I never drive it when the roads are dirty. Everyone's situation is different.

Just got done watching all of the Junkman's 2-Bucket Wash Technique on Youtube.. I feel so enlightened now haha! I never even thought of using a foam gun before! And the technique to keep the hose from hitting your car/tires is brilliant!

I did have one question though.. you never mentioned what kind of soap/foam you were using with the foam gun? Is it just regular car wash soap, or do you need a specific kind of foam?

Thanks a ton for your videos & insights!
