It's always a good experience when buying from Rick. I have made a few purchases from him, with the most recent being Deavers and RPG BSK. I always get a good deal and he responds quickly to any questions and keeps me in the loop. I would highly recommend him. If you need anything for your...

Karcher K5 Premium electric pressure washer - This is a decent electric pressure washer and At ~$250, this 2000psi machine does a good job and will handle anything you need for detailing (not so much for...
I would advise against a rotary polisher for all but the most experienced detailer. You can burn through clear coat in a heartbeat. Stick with DA. It's hard to do any real damage with a DA. As for pads, I'd recommend Chemical Guys Hex Logic. They are cheap and do a good job. For cutting, the Hex...
New vehicle paint is cured by the time you take delivery, so you are free to detail it immediately. As for sticking with a single line, you're really limiting yourself. You can see some reviews of different products here:

Not to be bearer of bad news, but that is an abrasive. Polish and compound contain abrasives. That's how they work. The micro-abrasives remove very thin layers of clearcoat to level the paint. The smoother the paint the better the shine. Also, I'll assume that you mean one pass not "one coat"...

I picked up two of these.

F11's main ingredient is silicone. If you know anything about automotive paint, silicone is bad for paint. Over time it will break down the clear coat and lead to premature oxidation. The short term effect is that it looks shiny and sticks to the paint very well (similar to silicone based tire...
Wax residue on black plastic trim is hard to remove. First try some IPA or CarPro Eraser. This will usually break down the wax so you can remove it. If that doesn't do it, a good steamer should work. Last option is Solution Finish.
