Detailing North NJ

1speedbike · 07-19-2009, 01:17 PM

I have HAD it with the hundreds of tree sap spots on my car! Nothing seems to work in getting them out, save for carefully scratching each one off with a fingernail and even then they don't come out all the way! Anyone know of a detailing place in North NJ that isn't too expensive (other than Ziebart in Riverdale)? It's driving me insane!

Bug and Tar remover and a microfiber???
I had some tree sap on the car and dreaded having to remove it. I was very surprised while washing, it magically disappeared with soap and water thanks to the clay/zaino treatment I did back in November (this was May).

Do you just do wash and wax or do you have a buffer to get out swirls?

Haha yes... my old car was black so I thought I could put in the time like I used to... but it's not working out so well!

I was backed into my buddy's house, in Wyckoff on franklin ave. That's awesome! Don't think my car has been spotted by anyone before except at meets =)

As soon as I saw it, I knew it was you...

I wash with this when the car is really dirty...

WASH

I soak the car in it for a minute or 2.. then clean it off. Takes everything off.
