So, I take it that this is ONLY about products one buys at Autogeek and not about auto detailing products in general? If so I understand, after all it's owned and operated by Autogeek. It may be beneficial to have an area for products in general to post up about in case it works well and...

Well after 30 years in this business, the last 8 years having an actual physical location we grossed over 1 million in sales. We went from 3 of us to start to now having 9 employees. Detailing has changed for us in that we no longer do soccer mom cars, all details start at $600 so this weeds...

Hello, It's been a good long while since both visiting and posting anything in the forums but there's just been no time really as we have been slammed with hail repairs as well as our ever growing detail side of of things including PPF and wraps. We have outgrown our current shop and now...

It's been a good long while now since I have posted up anything cause 1) Our shop is very busy with a 3 to 4 week calendar booked out and 2) I'm lazy! So many of you have seen some previous Porsche Cayman engines we have painted and then lite up and that's what I am showcasing here today...

I have done a video, actually several videos.....but this is the one I have edited....on our methods for applying Opti-Coat. Hope you'll enjoy the video. Opti-Coat Application Methods - YouTube

Recently I ordered some brake caliper logos from xenonmods.com......oh about a month ago now and have received....NOTHING! Not even a reply to several emails, no help from paypal either. So this place is a rip off and avoid them at all costs. This is FRAUD and should be freakin illegal but...

I don't get the chance to post up much anymore but I figured I would take a few moments to post up some pics of our latest cars from the last few months. This is a Charger that came in for some added stripes. IMAG0368 by Concours Auto Salon, on Flickr Now after the graphics: IMAG0370 by...

Hello people, after our last Porsche Cayman engine we were contacted by another Cayman owner wanting some custom painting, install lights and then all covered up with a HIP Designs clear cover. We were also going to do a makeover on his brake calipers and some interior pieces but they decided...

This Speed Yellow CaymanS came to our shop with one demand from the new owner..."See what you can do with it" So we set about brainstorming what we all we can do. We wanted to remove the stripes and Porsche badges but the new owner had grown to like them so we will leave those for another day...

Several years ago I had the pleasure of introducing many in the detailing world, both Pro and non-pro, to Optimum products, mainly the Optimum Spray Wax. It was not taken with great seriousness at first but after people tried it many of them came to love the ease of use, the great looks, UV...

Some weeks ago we had a Porsche Cayman come into our shop and we had done a thorough engine detailing, painted parts plus added a clear glass cover and also some LED lights to show off the engine work. Well we just completed a similar job on a Ferrari 430 minus the engine painting. It did...

Did this white turbo the other day, we had it for about a week while we wet sanded the exterior, installed a clear bra on the bumper only, removed the rear quarter panel chip guard film and replaced it with some new optically clear film and also changed out the wheels. Don't have too many...

Hello all, Sorry, not many before pictures of this but it had your usual black swirls and marring......and only 2500 miles on it! It went through a 4 step polishing process starting with LC foamed wool and working through some cool new LC beta pads. I used 105, 205, Optimum Polish, Optimum...

Super soft paint on this Porsche. It is a repaint so that may attribute to the pain in the butt the paint was especially when most repaints are on the hard side. I had this Porsche in our shop for I think 6 days and it has at least 12 hours of work on the exterior alone. It was wet sanded in...

While I still hold Ultimate Reflections I now also have Concours Auto Salon which is our shop name. Please give my new site a look at and let me know your thoughts. I still have some spell checking/grammar things to handle, I also need to load up some more pictures and am now working on my...

This is just a short post of my process to correct the paint of a Porsche Carrera in 3 steps. 2 rotary steps and 1 orbital step. Here is what I started with. There were no holograms or swirls but it was covered with halo-scratches or marring. Here is another picture. My first step...

There is a local PCA show here next weekend and a few of my clients will be entering their Pcars, both in concours and display, and this beautiful Turbo Speed Yellow will be one in the concours. It really only needed a good washing and I'm guessing that it would of been the one to beat as the...

Video: Rinse & Wax This is a really quick video I did a some time back of how it's possible to wash with No Rinse and then wax that area in one quick easy step. No Rinse & Wax Enjoy, Anthony *Video title should read "Rinse & Wax" not Rinse & Wash.....my bad

I did a video demonstrating the versatility of Optimum Polish as I thought many of you may have had some issues and/or questions about its use and applications. Polishing with Optimum Polish video - Optimum Forum Anthony EDIT: Video #2 has been fixed. Thank You

OK, I was told that the Ferrari I did in my first video wasn't dirty enough so I figured I would demo it on something a bit dirtier. I found 2 Porshe's, one silver and one black, that had some grime on them so I did a panel on each on. Hope this better shows how the No Rinse can work on dirty...
