    1995 Saab 9000 Aero

    Recently bought this car and, after sitting undriven outside for the better part of 18 months, it was in need of some serious TLC. Being a 19 year old car with 195k miles the paint is far from perfect and I certainly left room for improvement, but it'll do for what it is. Wash Clay M105 on LCC...

    2004 Volvo V70R Interior

    I recently bought this V70R. It was very cheap as a result of cosmetic issues, of which it has many. Hail damage, broken and missing trim, so on. Priority number one, though, was that poor interior! Pictures are a little lacking. My phone is broken and the only lens I have for my camera is a...

    303 Fabric Guard - Low temps?

    I recently acquired some 303 Fabric Guard for the first time, and slightly less recently a car to use it on. I have been planning on using it on my convertible top as part of its pre-winter storage protection (will be stored outside). That said, on the back of the bottle it pretty clearly says...

    Cleaned up my Miata a little today.

    Quick exterior detail, debadge, and a little painting. Wasn't really expecting much from the detail being white, but once I got started I was very surprised how much of a difference it made! I thought it was a slightly "off white", but nope!. Pretty much every major scratch the I had noticed...

    Lets talk outdoor winter storage.

    '04 Acura RSX-S

    Did a quick job on a friends' car. Could use a heavier cut but we were pressed for time and couldn't squeeze it in. Looks about 75% to me, but he was very happy. Certainly looks a lot better than it did! Befores: (Residue from claybaring, which I had him do as well as the taping)...

    '90 Saab 900 SPG

    Met up with Nick again yesterday to bring the paint back to life on his awesome Tally Red SPG. He had to show me rust on this car, I couldn't find any on my own... :shock: I didn't do anything with the SPG panels because it occurred to me that I don't know how they're finished... Wash Mothers...

    A little quality time with my car...

    Quick once-over with M205 on white LCC pad, 1 coat of Collinite 945, 1 coat of Mothers Reflections on my '96 Saab 9000 Aero. Pretty good for it's age, I think. Mostly original paint as far as I know (hood, pass. fender, front bumper, valence, and spoiler have all been resprayed at...

    Saab 9-3 Aero Interior.

    Over the weekend I finally got a chance to work on my brothers' '06 9-3 Aero Combi. I went over the exterior in the fall, so it wasn't too bad (winter definitely took its toll, however) but the interior was my main focus, though I still had some time to touch up the outside.. He doesn't have...

    Checking in from VT

    Well hello. I'm Brian, I'm 19, I live in Bakersfield, Vermont, and I drive a '96 Saab 9000 Aero. My detailing background started with a positive experience with a hand polish on my 9000 soon after I got it, which really got me interested in learning more. From there I got a job doing...
