Last year I decided to try the Road Trip Grime Destroyer product by Surf City. Like many of you, I'd become pretty jaded by a number of products but it got some good reviews so I gave it a go. Long story short, it's magic in a bottle. Really. If it's not in your aresenal, you are REALLY...

One of our club members alerted me last month that she was taking delivery of a 2009 Mini. I told them to NOT let the dealer get near the paint, and I'd take care of it. So we made arrangements for me to detail it. They took delivery Sat June 27, and I detailed it Sunday June 28! We agreed...

So I had two details this weekend. An early 90s Mitsubishi Galant, and a 2000 Mustang. Both offered some unique challenges. The Galant probably hadn't been washed in several years and lives outside 24/7. UV deterioration had really taken hold. The Mustang is on it's third teenager though...
