EXCELLENT LUKE - Great tip on washing and drying the surgical towels. That is something I did not know. The other tip to say is for a couple of reasons (1) do not press hard on detailing, not too hard that is as it can create seal issues between the glass and frame. Invites problems sometimes (2) the other reason not to press too hard is that it is a waste of your needed energy you want to use as the day gets longer and you still have jobs to do. I also want to say you are so right about not getting up to the edge of the window frame with the applicator. Get close, but no need to get right in there and be forceful. GREAT tips you made and techniques.

I've never seen a huck towel in the UK as no one uses them here that I know about. It's either scrim or micro fibre. Informative as always. Brings back memories of when I detailed, holding the rest of the cloth out the way of the glass. It's been that long since I've done it, completely forgot about how I did it. Don't use it you lose it!

Hey Luke, to clean the drops on the floor i use a old t-bar and mob on my short extension pole. Works great inside houses for residential work as well. And you don't have to bend over all day long. Sorry for my english, i'm Belgian.. love your video's man! Nico.

Very nice! If I know I'll be poling a lot of vinyl letters I carry a fixi-clamp with a towel already loaded in the jaws so I can just pop it on my pole tip and I don't have to mess with a loose towel each time.

Hey Luke long time no talk, been very busy getting my business off the ground 😈🤘 anyway, I have a truck similar to yours that I work with. And I have a 14 month old daughter that = car seat. So, I'm struggling with organization but if you don't mind sharing your truck setup I feel I could use some of your ideas. If not then no biggie, I'm sure I'll figure it out. Thanks man take care
