Dave is a amazing Detailer and has given a bunch to the detailing world. He has a bunch of guides over at detailing world. He is also making some videos which are excellent as well.

DW Guides

His DA and Rotary are good reads as well as his washing technique.

Although someone on this board thinks both autopia and detailingworld are only for advanced detailers these are two amazing places to get information on everything.

Thanks!

FYI, I also post over at DW and the owner of the site is very pleased that I do. Someone on this site needs to get their facts and quotes straight.

I always find Dave KG's posts interesting... he does invest a lot of time in documenting stuff like this which is cool. Its time consuming to gather that kind of info accurately.
