Just a small job I did over the weekend on a 370z. Used carpro inside on the seats combining use of a nail brush and softer bristle boars hair brush. And a very diluted Apc on the suede. I think it turned out great.

Does anyone have any good websites to upload a logo and have custom shirts made? I have a friend locally who does tshirts for me but I'm looking to class it up a bit when meeting with clients for quotes or doing face to face time at car shows. I'm looking to buy a few dry fit polo shirts with...

Ok forgot the DSLR so cell phone only pictures will do. This is car number 2 for this client. 2009 Lexus LS460 was booked for a cquartz uk coating and basic interior. Interior was super clean so just was a wipedown and light vac so I skipped those pics. Started with DP waterless wash and...

Well I went to a local classic car cruise and handed out cards and a few months later i got a call from one of the cars that I really wanted to work on. It was a 1960 corvette that was just "buffed out" and I had the hard task of approaching the owner and offering my service and after today I...

Mike, I'm watching my classic car on TV and now it's different watching it after meeting you and Dennis. It's pretty cool.

This car came in today to get a cut polish and a basic interior which I then offered and upgraded to at least clean an protect the leather a little bit better than the bare basics. The car was swirled up pretty good. Started with the standard 2 bucket wash. and nanoskin then...

Did this job yesterday. 2005 Nissan altima in rough shape. I was experimenting with the Megs da microfiber system with my flex 3401. Started off with a wash with CG Honey Dew soap followed by dp road kill on some bugs and tar and tarminator on the remaining tar followed by iron x...

So I'm watching this Desert Car Kings show on velocity network and the paint and finish work on their cars they restore is so bad. Does anyone else cringe when watching all these new shows popping up with people flipping cars? I see so many swirls and holograms and massive orange peel and...

Well I have a group of civics coming in and this was the first. I used to own an 8th gen Civic Si and one of the local groups here has a few members coming in for some work. This car was in rough shape. Did the normal wash with CG honeydew and my foam gun followed by a nanoskin fine...

A new customer of mine brought this one over to get a good once over. He purchased it new and the dealer must have buffed it out before delivery because it had a bit of holograms and it was swirled up a bit. Started out with a wash with CG honeydew and cleaned the wheel barrels while still on...

A couple summers ago my Dad had his car painted from a red almost maroon color to his favorite black. Its been a terrible experience. The painter got in over his head on this one. He broke a ton of parts and couldn't align the doors and the list goes on. So we had to pay a real body man to...

I'm just wondering if anyone has an opinion if it's worth setting up to be authorized to do opti coat pro applications. I have all the requirements together but I wasn't sure if it's going to benefit me since I'm not sure how many cars I could end up doing with opticoat. I've done 2.0 but that's...

These are the jobs I love to do for people. A customer has had this car for a long time and loves it for weekends and nice days. Just got a house and a garage so he was ready to get the paint looking right for long term now that he can store it correctly. Started with a wash with CG...

So it's been ages since I've actually used a paste wax. For a long time I've been using p21s when I chose to use a wax. Latley I've been using sealants such as sonax net shield, menzerna PL, CG blacklight and jet seal. And the only other wax in my arsenal is CG lava. My car was super clean...

I've been busy with cars this month for side work. Here is a 2012 civic si with a full race brand turbo kit making over 400whp. Unfortunately car was broken down for almost a year and sat out and was neglected for that time. Did my regular CG wash wax wash with 2 buckets. Iron x then nano...

Well Canon is having a refurbished sale and currently my wife has the base lowest end Canon eos rebel dslr. It's on its way out and I need help. She is not a pro and just likes taking pictures. I'm looking at the t3i the sl1 and the t5i I'm thinking about shooting for the middle. She was set on...

Just the standard deal here on this one. Only 15k miles. Light swirls and a few scratches. Was fairly clean so I started with Dp waterless wash followed by iron x and a Nanoskin fine In these pics I haven't done the wheels yet because I started at 10pm and going to get out with the hose and...

Customer wanted an all in one job on this. Was in horrible shape and after the wash they decided to go with a one step polish job. Washed with CG wash wax Iron x and nano skin Then I ended up going with a megs mf cut pad and menz fg400 over the whole thing followed by megs finishing mf pad...

Does anyone have a link to a thread or article on some guidelines for using this? I've read so many mixed opinions on what a good thickness is. My car has been hit with megs d300 on a cutting mf pad and then v38 on a polishing pad. My thickness measures anywhere from 97 to 114 microns. So to...

Well I tried fg400 and I'm in love for a single step polish. I've been using CG v32 36 and 38. If I want to get more menzerna products to work with what are the must have polishes? I was thinking just sf4000 and possibly trying the sealant.
