All it takes? I didn't ask how to go about detailing a car and/or getting results like you achieve. I only asked where to purchase a foam cannon... So if you mean do I think a foam cannon is all it takes to achieve foam, then I would have to say no. Foam cannon, soap, water and pressure washer is all it takes! I previously had no luck with a google search, but just now did a google search again and found it, so I must have over looked before. Regardless, it would not have killed you to help those of us who could not locate it online, since I am clearely not the only one asking you As far as fitment issues and not recommending them, thats good to hear and would have been greatly appreciated when I as well as several others inquired about the foam cannon in several of your post! Simple responses like that greatly help and are much appreciated. All you ever mention is a "modified version"... not why you modified it, or where we can purchase I do like your post and enjoy looking at your pics, but would also greatly appreciate responses to the questions us forum members ask. Its a forum and everyone is going to ask the questions in your post before we do a search, its life, and will always be like that regardless of how many or how often people say to "search". And even if they did search, the only thread that will come up mentioning on where to post is this one and is by myself, not you. PURCHASE FOAM CANNON HERE http://www.pressureparts.com/Pressure-Part-344030.aspx |

Sounds good to me. Take care!
A forum is a place to share information with one another. If you don't plan on helping your fellow forum members, then there's not much use for your posts other than just visual. Seeing shiny cars gets kinda old unless we're also learning how to achieve these results. So unless you plan on answering questions and not ignoring them, I have no problem with you not posting here anymore.

I think u all are taking this the wrong way! If u look at teh date of when the OP first started this thread I think its right when FIMINUS started posting here and maybe Darkcloud thought he was a spammer or something!
Either way Fiminus u do GREAT WORK dont let the few haters make u stop posting here. Its quite obvius u have alot of time and money invested into your hobby and yes what works for some people doesnt work for others!!

Fuck off shitbrick, what do you know little 81 with your 6 posts or are you hiding under another name? You don't know shit. Get out of my thread.

Sure the cars he detailed and this is the detailing section, yet all he was doing was posting pictures and there is a section dedicated to posting just pictures which was all he was doing. Which started the thread.

Yeah, not from bumping threads.
I wasn't hating on his work. His work is near perfect. My only single problem was he joined and flooded the section with pictures. Theres a picture section for that. People come to the detailing section for help, info, or to gain a better detailing knowledge. FMINUS was not looking for help or info, and didn't offer to share much knowledge. He has since begun to help out a little more.

Here is an example. whytboy posted back on 12/7 for help in buying a foam cannon http://www.e90post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=100101 . FMINUS Obviously has a really good one and has a decent amount of knowledge in the category. Several days have gone by and there are 20 posts with not much help. Yet there are picture threads started by FMINUS throughout this time frame and he didn't have the time to help a guy out yet he did have the time to post a new car he detailed with 15 uploaded pictures.
Get the point.

I don't hate your or am I trying to hate on you, just wish that you would maybe speak more openly of your ways or maybe give tips, not just post "FMINUS DETAILED: XXX CAR" with a bunch of pictures and no info. Or maybe when someone asks some questions, help them out. I've went through nearly every one of those threads and you hardly ever reply nor gives tips on how you performed the work. There are several professional detailers on this board and all of them will offer all the help they can providing every tip they know to help the fellow members out. They don't lose anything from doing so, yet you seem like you have these uber super secret practices that no other detailer in the world knows of and don't want to share anything. That is all.

Wash, clay, polish, seal, then wax? Nothing special? Many of the "professional" detailers do not like what I use, and I dont like what they use, but we all achieve the same results. I dont get what there is to tell? And THERE ARE NO SECRETS?!?!? |

He has begun to list the products he uses, which is a start. But in every single one of those threads there are a couple questions of how something was used or how it was performed and he doesn't answer. I don't understand the need not to answer or the reason to keep the info to himself.

You seem to have a great deal of wealth on the subject. Some dudes honestly will seriously need you to walk them through a step by step of how to properly wash a car. People don't understand that detailing is a lot more in depth then a typical car wash until they find out and will then need to be walked through it. You may think it's boring or maybe even above your knowledge but your work is great and the more knowledge you can spread the more great looking cars there will be driving the roads.
