  • Any pro detailer tips for removing spray paint overspray on rubber trim pieces on the car?

    I have definitely have overspray on my car almost every day as my office has a spray shop nearby. I can easily clay bar the car without hassle but I have more concern of the rubber trim on the car. It cannot be clayed off, tried. It seems not many answers for this. Any suggestions? I intend to clean it weekly to prevent over-accumulation. I do have a method for cleaning but the manufacturer do not recommend on rubber surface. Looking for other viable options.

  • Alternate days to clay bar a car?

    I would like to know if using the clay bar at the stated rate will have any side effect on the car's coating? I know it is very excessive but not really much of a choice as the factory next to my office building is doing sand blasting quite recently which I have no idea why and causes the flat surfaces like the roof of my ride to feel like sand paper after mere 1 day. I'm a car crazy guy who like to keep it as show room shine as much as possible.

    Can someone kindly advise me on this?

    Also What is the main difference between detailing, medium, heavy duty clay bar? I know the main difference is the ability to clean the surface but will it do more damages as it's heavy duty??

    Thanks beforehand.

  • Microsoft Excel 2007 Qns?

    Any formula to hasten the process of entering data. I have a set of formula for each row of data entry but the difference is the the row number.

    As such I'm wondering if there is any formula for this instance. A specified sheet A row number 1 for the data. Then the next row I want to change the info to sheet A row number 10. Is there shortcut to turn this row number automatically without having to enter and change quickly rather than manually change all of them which is very tedious.

  • How to calculate no of fabrication on a piece of sheet metal?

    As title suggests, I like some opinions in calculating on how many parts can be fabricated on a sheet metal. Being new in manufacturing industry and company just expanded. Just took the reins to this new dept and want to implement new method to achieve better estimation.

    Logically we will take area of the sheet metal divide the area of the fabricated part to get the result. What I see that is fabricated material can position in different ways either horizontal, vertical, at an angle which can affect the result alot. Any advise on this?

  • Quitting a job....?

    I have just joined a big company as my first full time job after graduated from my studies nearly a month now and think that it does not suit me as initially I thought of giving a try since I am fresh to the workforce and cannot be demanding in my selection of jobs.. Firstly the environment.. (lots of office politics) but still acceptable, everyday meeting (something that I do not like) and most importantly is cannot adapt to the work, Currently I am still under probation period but after training for about 3 weeks includes 1 week orientation. I still cannot work properly and keep making mistakes and forget to send out daily reports/weekly reports..(apparently my mentor seems to be irritated by my progress), Does that means I am not suited for this job and should look for other related to my studies?? Will it affect my image that I'm a job hopper (personally I'm not)?? How shall I explain / resign if I still cannot work independently and keep making mistakes?? Thanks
