For those of you who are sat there thinking, Gigi is biased, Gigi would say that, she's all about CND. I'd like to point something out to you.
Gigi knows that I use NSI L&P but when I asked for her help she didn't turn me away, far from it. What she cares about is helping tech's to become great techs.
Her thinking is based on facts, she has never said; 'because I said so' she has always given examples, given links and suggested books dvd's etc where we can see for our selves the truth of things.
Her comments and findings are shared by me and many others, if some of you find yourselves feeling defensive then I suggest you take a step back and work out why you feel that way.
Do you practice safely and cleanly? If you do then you are not being lumped in together. So you shouldn't feel insulted.
Mixing products; how I wish we could, so many companies have one or two products that I love, it would be great if we could use them all.
Let me ask you this, what happens if you mix, cilit bang with washing up liquid and bleach? All good products, all will clean things but use them together and you are likely to end up in hospital with damaged lungs.
Fact, some things far from working together work against each other. Not as dramaticly as my example but if you find you have product break down, lifting, cracking etc and you have been puting products together that were never intended to go together then can you really say it's because someone is biased? Or could it be due to your lack of education? There is far more to being a good tech then placing a perfect bead in the right place. Good tech's know why things work together, or don't, they have more books on their shelves then the ones they had to buy, they find their interest is snagged by many side issues and understand that those side issues help them to grow. Questioning 'why' is good. But mulishly posting, do I have to, when the last 300 answers have been, yes you do have to is pointless, follow the facts, educate yourself beyond the basics and answer the question for yourself.
Your customers deserve the best.
Great thread Gigi:hug:
