Kyle Clark - Scangrip Rep | AFO Project | DETALKS
Tuesday Feb 27, 2018
Tuesday Feb 27, 2018
Scangrip color match lighting has been gaining some serious popularity in the detailing community. Levi Gates sits down with AFO Detailer and Scangrip Representative Kyle Clark to discuss his role in the industry. What is Scangrip? Scangrip is a color match lighting system that essentially mimics sunlight. This lighting allows detailers to see imperfections and swirls in automotive paint for superior correction. Paint and body shops can also use the light for color matching paint and getting the correct color when necessary. Kyle gives us the rundown and review of the scangrip system along with his entry into the detail mafia.

MAIN SHOW #30 | Diets, Detail Brushes & How We Got Into Cars
Monday Feb 26, 2018
Monday Feb 26, 2018
Welcome to the big 3-0! We're thirty Main Show's in, yet we've never once discussed how we got into cars! Today, we fix that. (And buckle up, because it's a long one)
*BUT* before we dive deep into Civic hatches, SVX half-windows or 70's land yachts, we chat about our progress with our current weight-loss challenges, along with just how badly people want high-quality detailing brushes!
If you JUST want to hear about our car-loving origin stories, you can skip to 34:31 and that's pretty much all we talk about for the rest of the podcast!
OH! And if you want to see the cars we're talking about, watch the video version of this episode on our YouTube page here: https://youtu.be/_h0_m1Y8YQw

President of FLEX North America | AFO Project | DETALKS
Thursday Feb 22, 2018
Thursday Feb 22, 2018
The Air Force One Detailing Project had a handful of world renowned sponsors that arrived for the event. With FLEX polishers being the primary tool, Levi got to sit down with Bob Eichelberg (President of Flex North America) for an onsite DETALKS! Flex Polishers are one of the primary tools in the detailing industry. The Flex 3401 is the most popular as well as the polisher that was used on Air Force One. Flex polishers boast plenty of power, but also have the capability to "finish" the paintwork. Force rotation polishers are much different than a Dual Action or a typical Rotary. The Flex has a continuous rotation regardless of the amount of pressure used. Hence why it is a great tool when working upside down on the wing of a plane. Bob gives us a brief history lesson on Flex and how they got to where they are today. Even though the company originated overseas, the North American operation is bigger than ever!
