Wow Scott, you take some good photos! One of my friends shot my motorcycle, and it also recently got selected to be in a magazine, but I need to get that and the Viper together one of these days.

I work pretty close to 35 and Beltline (not far from you Scott) but live in Mesquite. 2 hrs is a drive to detail someone's car for free :) I've got most everything I need to detail the car myself (in fact I detail co-worker's and friends cars most of the time), but if I do wet-sand this bad...

Oh, she's been broken in for some time now. I drive her a lot, and haven't been too easy on her since she's been broken in. I got mine for about $4k under sticker, but I guess winter weather had a great deal to do with it. I couldn't be happier with the car overall, it's just the small things...

Oh and cabin heat issues are non existant with the A/C on. It blows super cold on the low setting, and the heater in the mornings works hard too. LOL, Texas weather has us in the 70's during the day and 40's in the morning. The side sills have not felt warm during entry and exit, but I don't...

Yeah, I hang out at Lamborghini Dallas a lot b/c of my best friend, and he tells me that he gets a lot of long distance customers b/c the local dealers are not treating customers right. I'm surprised high-end dealers don't know how important customer service is. He has however seen quite a few...

Gary, I've been happy before on the Wolfgang/Souveran combination with the M3, and we'll see how it holds up on this car. Are you considering purchasing a 08, or are you planning to stick with the Z06 for now? I really haven't had any issues with this car, and have already put 850 miles on it...

Well, picked up my new 2008 Viper Coupe in GTS BLUE, on February 4th, and I've washed it several times since then, but thought I'd post pics after the Wolfgang Sealant and Souveran application. Saleen and the dealer did a good job of not putting swirl marks in the car, but not so great with...

Not useless at all, I enjoy seeing the photos! Jason

Wow, why does he have AP1 rims on it? It looks like a possible temporary set of wheels? Did the owner debadge the fenders? Great detail, the paint looks awesome! Jason

dengood1, The chrome wheels were what came with this particular Z06. The negotiated deal included him switching to the competition grey wheels, and after the deal was made, they said they could not do the switch. The owner of the dealership got involved and offered to powdercoat the wheels. The...

My best friend picked this up recently, and let me borrow it for a few days. I took the opportunity to clean it up for him, as he uses it as a daily driver, and doesn't really care about it that much, especially since it's black. It had some minor scratches that I was able to get out. It stays...

And some pics of the other cars that had been washed earlier that week. Wish I had more garage space to leave them inside when I work. Wolfgang Deep Gloss and Souveran Topped 2 months ago Souveran Applied in March to the M3 Jason

Here are some more photos. The car was a 2006 Lexus IS350 with the light grey interior (sorry no interior pics) Jason

You sir are correct! The silver Lexus is mine, the car that is reflecting the image was what I was asking about :) Jason

Well, a co-worker who has been wanting a detail for a while finally had an opportunity to swing by and get her cleaned up. The car is only a year old, and was in good shape. Mostly, it needed the clay bar (used with soap & water as a lube - thanks fellow geekers for that tip), but I hit it up...

Wow, congratulations! It wouldn't happen to be Chevron Jack or Tahiti that you are working on is it? You will love the H.U.E.T. training. Basic preparation in case the helicopter crash lands into the ocean, it was fun. Personal basket's are supposedly more fun ;) I'm a design engineer at...

Heh, yeah I've had my past 2 cars and 2 motorcycles custom painted, and I know exactly what you are talking about. After the bodyshop paints, they're *supposed* to colorsand, but some don't, and that will get some of the trash out. Unfortunately, on this car, it's the original paint from the...

Toto, thanks for the advice! I was thinking the bumps may be because I was operating at high speeds (2000+ RPM on a Orange Edge pad) or for a long time. I know that is a no-no, but I wanted to see what would happen (I have nothing to lose on this car :D). I bought a Fiber blend wool pad from...

Toto, I'm doing a Black 98 Toyota Camry that was neglected since the day it was bought basically. There is faded paint, horrible swirls, etc. I was testing one of the panels w/ compounding (3M) and PO106FF (used w/ Hitachi Rotary), and then a section w/just PO106FF, and another section w/1500...

Anyone know about a 2005 Audi S4, and how hard the clearcoat is? Also, a local detailer told my friend they are super thin, and they don't do paint correction on them, especially with a rotary. Thanks!
