detailing tip

not sure if any of u have heard of Red Hot (Red Hawk now) and Orange power, Red Hot is a detailers best friend, it will take just about anything off, its a really good cleaner, i dont think that u will find it in a store, u have to order it, but i recomend using this on your washer and coolant tanks, and use orange power all around your engine bay, let it soak and spray it off, also if u spray your car down with orange power and let it settle for a bit it will make your paint really smooth, then mix some redhot with your carwash and it makes the paint even better, when using red hot mix 50-50 with water, and u will need a heavy duty sprayer to hold up for the red hot, but u should have seen my wheels, they had years of road grime, havent been washed for prolly years, and had oil on them, i sprayed with red hot and scrubbed with a tire brush, they look almost new, trust me, u will have more than just one use for this stuff, but it is the best cleaner i have ever used

Red Hot will stain paint, and anything that can be stained. I haven't heard of "Red Hawk", but our distributor now sells "Red line". That stuff isn't as good as Red Hot was in cleaning the interior, but will also stain stuff. Make sure that if you have some overspray, you IMEDIATELY wipe it off. And don't spray it directly on vinyl or leather, or plastic. First spray it on a rag, then wipe the surface.
