This is a sales job remember you need to learn sales techniques ad well as learning to repair. Most that fail in this fail in the business.

Ive worked retail all my life. So I know how important the friendly customer service is. I found a kit but equalizer. The rock star. That name pops up alot when im doing research. So ive narrowed it down to the rock star or the biggest package from delta. I just dont want to get a job and not have the tools to do it. Thats probably the biggest concern at this point besides all the paper issues that are coming with my start up.

Ultrabond is a great company also, pretty expensive though. The tools will last forever.

I use a qtip and a wicking action, with the injector mounted over my stop hole. I do a lot of long crack repairs due the the sort of vehicles I service.

I don't care for long cracks and simply don't fill any. Never liked long-crack-repairs. I just ''stop'' cracks, drill, tab, fill.
Like Screenman, most work I do is fleets and commercial vehicles.

Ive watched some youtube videos and it shows them sliding it along the crack but its with some other system. Is that possible with this kit?
