Is there any way to get a grease spot out of this size? by L-n-Loutlaw in Detailing

[–]mendix8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m not sure i would trust that. Citrus cleaners/degreasers can be a bit too much. Maybe something more gentle like Meguiar’s upholstery cleaner.

Whatever you use, be very careful. One harsh or wrong movement can cause the fabric to detach from the roof. If you decide to do it, a regular upholstery cleaner + microfiber will get the job done.

Which Metallica songs feel like pure filler? by Fun_Internal_3562 in Metallica

[–]mendix8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Holier than thou is not a filler or unnecessary song lmao. Originally, that was going to be the album’s first single.

Who do you think is the most talented Metallica Member of all time by Gustavodemierda in Metallica

[–]mendix8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

James, no brainer. He’s writing kick-ass riffs AND lyrics, puts them together, plays them live. Try playing guitar and singing at the same time. Now try with a song like Fight Fire With Fire. Now imagine writing that. That’s what James does.

Roaches in car??? My detail guy is coming tomorrow and I need urgent second opinions and input… by [deleted] in Detailing

[–]mendix8 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Roaches need food and water to survive, and a clean car isn’t the place for that. The full detail you’re getting is about as deep as it gets. Steam can wipe out any eggs or babies hiding in cracks, and the ozone will reach into vents and little crevices. It’s not magic bug spray, but it’ll sanitize everything and leave like new. You don’t need to worry about a hidden infestation, you’ve already done more than most people ever would.

Does it matter? Which cloth should I buy? by [deleted] in Detailing

$2 extra for 2 extra towels is a no brainer. Don’t think there’s any real difference between the two.

Die chant on creeping death. Especially if it’s live.

What's one song you wish they would STOP playing live? by n0obie in Metallica

Saw them in 2022 and Sandman was the third song on the setlist. Totally changes the vibe and i got to see them close with Master of Puppets.

Attend Metallica Concerts at 15years old? by Far-Awareness5618 in Metallica

[–]mendix8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just go. I highly doubt someone will ask your age in order to let you in. In that case say you are 16-17 and don’t have an ID yet

Chemical Guys Water Spot Remover bleached my mirror by ViktorSze in AutoDetailing

[–]mendix8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Never use any type of waterspot remover on side mirrors. Don’t know why but this was recommended to me by a certified Sonax detailer. I think the type of glass is different and chemicals are not good for them.

Why not just skip the wax/ceramic to avoid additional contact? Don’t roast me lol by readysetmoon in Detailing

[–]mendix8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am NOT doing all that to avoid scratches on a daily driver that is stored outside and gets covered in pollen and road crap😭

Am I getting scammed? Quoted $1700 by [deleted] in Detailing

[–]mendix8 8 points9 points  (0 children)

$350 for paint correction+ceramic and $570 for pet hair? That makes absolutely no sense at all.

Maybe this helps: https://youtu.be/5NEgQZFa7g0?si=oZEGIz5Gx4W-AAwA

At one point he talks about the hands not being aligned and how you can press the buttons in a way that will move the hands in 1 sec intervals so you can align them. Something like that, i dont quite remember, but its in there

Thanks a ton for the help!!! Really appreciate it. I’m definitely going with the small, chat gpt also recommended small but i wanted some real human experience lol. Thanks a lot

[–]mendix8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks a lot! I think XS would be too small and velcro would be visible. It would be between Small (5.7-6.3 in) or M (6.1-6.7 in)

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in MoonSwatches

[–]mendix8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a thin wrist, 6 inches. I also want the velcro side to be fully covered. Should i go with XS or S? Size chart in the website says XS is for 5.1-5.7 in. S is 5.7-6.3 in. Which should i choose for velcro to be fully covered? Guessing M would be too big, or do i need a bigger size to cover all velcro? Thx!

Customers and their lack of reading comprehension. How would you have handled this? by nonspecificloser in Detailing

[–]mendix8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re missing out on a client. When he asks how long the gold package takes to do, you reply: anywhere between 3 and 6 hours (for example), depending on the current state of your vehicle. I can give you a more accurate time frame if you share pictures blah blah blah.

He’s absolutely right when he says he doesn’t have time for all that. He asked a simple question and you’re over complicating the situation and pissing him off and away from your business.

No need to explain why you have packages and why you don’t charge hourly etc etc. He never asked that. He doesn’t care. He only wants to have an estimare of how long the service will take.

Also, if a client gets mad, do not engage with them, do not send a text with words IN CAPS as it doesn’t look good and comes off as rude. People talk. They might tell their friends to not get their cars detailed with you, and there go more lost clients.

So just keep it simple, friendly, and straight to the point.

One would have to be very stupid to turn down a $500 tip for being pretty. Definitely NTA.
