There are lots of how too's on the internet on cleaning cars. I find this guy really easy to follow, and he doesn't make overt product placements.

Nice video. I'm surprised he didn't mention using a separate bucket for rinsing (Not just for wheels and paint). Good tips though for sure.

I learned a lot from adamspolishes detailing instructional videos,

I find him easy to follow and it's nice to have things broken up in chapters.
Besides that he makes great products imo.

Not sure where you are but I do 1 on 1 training with enthusiasts. I have had a few guys spend the day and I set people up with product ideas and a suuplier.

Speaking of products, Gary Dean (who does the Opti-guard treatments in Tampa) has a whole line of products that he's created as well. I'm going to start using his stuff in my garage after seeing it in use first hand.
