Hello everyone!

First of all, I would like to say thanks to Phil at Detailer's Domain for his continued help and great discounts along the way! Simply said, he offers a great variety of products at unbeatable prices.

I am new to the forum but I wanted to start by sharing my collection which I hope will also help me from purchasing more! Indeed this is a nasty addiction. I find it best described by my order history...

My first order from Detailers Domain contained the following:
Detailer's Domain "Uber" Geninue Wool Wash - $24.95

Time for a new vacuum and glass polish...
Metro Vac 'N' Blow - $200.90 (For such a little vacuum, this thing packs a punch!)

Boars Hair Interior Detail Brush - $9.95
P21S 5 Liter Sprayer Nozzles - (2) $13.90
P21S Auto Wash 5 liter refill - $64.95 (I like to use this as a pre-wash, and it works great!)

Product Total: $236.65

**ALL PRICES ABOVE DO NOT INCLUDE THE 10% DISCOUNT GIVEN TO FORUM MEMBERS**

Now, time to add that up!

Not bad, right? I saved at LEAST 10% of that on each order.

And a picture of my car after a detail with Swissvax Devine by Phil at Detailer's Domain:

Yes, I do have painted reflectors now!

More to come after my detail with Swissvax Concorso!

Thanks,

Welcome to the forum. You have an amazing collection for just starting. Your car came out beautiful. you are headed in the right direction for sure.WOW

Nice collection and sweet looking car. Love that color.

Hey, Carl, great looking car! The only thing I see missing is some machine polishing action. From the pic, your paint looks to be in pretty good shape, but sooner or later you'll be wanting to polish that baby.

Can you make any recommendations? I am a bit hesitant because I have no experience with machine polishing. I guess you have to start sometime, right? I hear the Porter Cable is the most user-friendly, is this true? Thanks your your help in advance!

Welcome cinserrajr ! Nice collection you got going there.

Just like you i'm pretty new to the world of detailing. I know most of the people in here prefer a rotary polisher but i just bought the Meguiars DA polisher and it feels very safe for a newbie like me.

I have two VWs with very hard clear coat and i got about a 90% correction with the Megs machine on my first try. Used Menzerna polish and compound with Sonus pads...

Can probably get even better correction as I get more experience with the machine.

oooh nice collection and nice vehicle too

[supercharged]

very, very nice! So teasing!!!

Hey, Carl, I started out with the PC about a year ago and after doing 3 cars with it, I was like screw this, there has to be a better way. But like a lot of folks, was scared to go full rotary. It was about the same time the Flex XC 3401 was starting to show up. I picked one up last September and haven't looked back. I have purchased a rortary (Flex 3403), but haven't had a chance to bust it out yet. You have to be a little more careful with the 3401, but if cost is not an issue ($279ish), then it's the way to go in my opinion. Do some research here and on other forums for reviews and info. Let me know if you have any specific questions.

Perfect timing:
