This customer found me through the Optimum website. After looking at a few detailers and talking to them and myself he decided to bring his car to me for an evaluation. This customer lives 2 hours from me and he was willing to drive the car up so I could take a look at the car and recommend...

It's been awhile since I posted here. Been really busy since Spring has finally arrived here in Mass. I also have been working on my new shop. I move in May 1st. Luckily I know the guy that is in the shop now so I've been able to go there in the evenings and start painting. The shop is a...

I'm going to be taking a week long vacation in Nags Head, NC on the Outer Banks Oct 27-Nov 3rd. Anyone from the area want to meet up or can suggest anything to do (bars, restaurants, events, etc)? As of right now we will be taking my detailing rig down (the HHR SS), which is not exactly the...

This car was restored at a body shop/restoration center. The job they did with the paint was sub-par for a classic like this. There are sanding marks in the primer throughout the entire car. The roof was especially bad. There was a good amount of sanding marks left from the wet sand and buff...

Well I tried out GTechniq C4 trim restorer yesterday and I was very impressed. Now my problem....How long does the product need to cure? I applied it to my girlfriends Equinox and within an hour it started pouring! And now there are some water spot stains on the some of the plastic. Just...

I was contacted by Christian (therock0720) a fellow forum member looking to get the severe swirls taken care of on his 99 Mitsubishi Eclipse. We worked out a deal that I would give him some training on polishing with a DA and he would help me with the correction. Took him a panel or 2 to get the...

This car is from a new customer of mine. He's the president of a successful local auto auction. He has 75 "recondition specialist" that work for him yet he hires and outside detailer to deal with his cars. Certainly not complaining. He started me out by having me detail his 2013 Escalade...

I have a Bentley Azure (I believe...pics below) lined up for a pretty standard interior & exterior detail tomorrow. No polishing and no real heavy contamination other than the rims have a decent amount of brake dust and there is some road grime. Just wanted to see if anyone had any experience...

I was contacted a few weeks ago by a local hotel that was looking to get their vinyl decals removed off a couple vans. They were recently bought out and are changing the logos. This weekend I tackled the job. Saturday was the first van which I received some help from a local forum member...

Yesterday, I had the pleasure of working on this 2009 BMW E90 M3. Beautiful car and color. The customer had purchased the vehicle from Texas and there were a few concerns he wanted taken care of. His main concern was some rock chips and the exterior. We agreed upon a 1 step polish and rock...

I've been getting more and more boat details lately. Most have not been an issue. However, I've recently been getting a few details at a marina. For those of you who detail either your own boat or do it for work, what do you use to wax in direct sunlight? It's not exactly like I can pop a...

Customer found me online in searching for a local detailer to restore the finish on his 96 Lexus LS400. The car had been previously detailed by another local company that the owner was not happy with. The other detailer left some holograms and lots of splatter all of the place. After having...

This is one of my sister's friends cars. He takes part in Mini's on the Dragon each year in North Carolina. He is there actually right now. He had some sever road rash on the front of his Mini. Upon initial inspect I actually told him he should look into a repaint. But he was just looking to...

This was my detail from Saturday. A friend of mine wanted to have his 2004 Mercury Mountaineer detailed inside and out. I went up to his shop and did the detail there. The interior plastics and leather were pretty dirty and the interior needed an overall thorough cleaning. Interior Process &...

Well, I've been working on setting up an appointment with this guy for over a year now. He's the brother in law of another buddy of mine. Anyway, finally was able to set up an appointment with him today to get his Escalade done. It wasn't that bad except the paint is in horrible condition...

Yesterday I did this Ford Explorer interior and exterior detail. The exterior wasn't anything really to write about, so figured I'd do a write up on the interior only. Customer was looking to get the car cleaned up for her son who she gave this SUV to. It's been severely neglected over it's...

Well, last week I went down to Abilene, TX for my brother's wedding. His wedding was the 10th, but I went down the weekend before for his bachelor party and to spend the week with him. Well, I decided to ship my detailing stuff down so I could tackle his lifted F350. I forgot my camera so I...

Well, I finally stepped up this year and got myself a booth at some of the local car shows and a few bigger ones. The biggest one right now is World of Wheels. Which I'm just waiting on my package to show up. I talked to the guy in charge of vendors yesterday. I'm also part of another big...

I apologize for the late review of this product. With the holidays, a death in the family, and the flu I've been busy. So I finally got around to testing out the product. I attempted to shoot videos with my IPhone 4 but they came out awful and I can't edit them cause I don't want to spend $30...
