    Camaro RS dressed in Red Jewel w/ OptiCoat

    I haven't noticed any induced micro-marring from the use of MS. It is certainly more "slick" than a IPA wipedown, but MS wipe-down has saved me from having to do multiple IPA's to removal all remaining oils. What I mean by that is, sometimes the IPA dilution is too high and you need a 15% when...

    Camaro RS dressed in Red Jewel w/ OptiCoat

    Thanks everyone! This has quickly become one of my favorite colors out there. I wasn't aware that this was made for 2 years only- nice choice to limit this one. SR99, to answer your questions the MS wipedown, I've actually just recently switched to using MS vs IPA. MS seem to give a lot more...

    Camaro RS dressed in Red Jewel w/ OptiCoat

    Thanks! I absolutely love this color! I can't say I've seen any aftermarket tails, but I'm not a huge fan of the rear lights either. Especially since they're difficult to detail! Thanks! Thanks! I love the gloss level of OptiCoat! Absolutely amazing! Thanks Zack! Thanks Cam, I was...

    Camaro RS dressed in Red Jewel w/ OptiCoat

    Hello: I was recently contacted by this customer to do a full correction + OptiCoat for a local car show. Upon inspection, I figured 2 steps compound + polish would do the trick to remove the water marks and underlying marring, swirls, rids, etc.. Needless to say, after doing a test spot...

    2013 Mazda6 + Opticoat

    I couldn't agree more. Not in love with the older models, this one is great. Looks a bit like the new Lancer front end. Thanks Everyone. I do love the look and durability of Opti-Coat! I'm suprised with the advancement in the detailing products available, that dealerships still hack up...

    2013 Mazda6 + Opticoat

    Nothing special about this one- new car prep really. No noticeable defects, a few swirls but nothing major. Doesn't look like this one was washed very much by the dealer so damage was limited. Wash: CG Citrus Wash w/ Carpro Merino Wool Wash Mitt (2 Bucket Method) Megs APC+ on Tire and Trim...

    Dull E350

    This Mercedes E350 arrived this past week with 0 protection! Anytime a vehicle has no protection, things that seem minor like: brake dust, bug splatters, bird poop, road grime and tar, have a major affect on paint and can leave permanent damage. Needless to say, it was in need of some lovin'...

    Dodge Avenger- Worst Interior to Date

    It's hard to say what your market will allow you to yield as people are only going to pay so much because of what others will offer pricing-wise. My hourly rate for something like this is always always always, without exception, $40/hour. And I usually give a range and find out their budget...

    Dodge Avenger- Worst Interior to Date

    Thanks! It was a struggle, that's for sure! Megs APC+, High Traffic Shampoo, Degreaser, PC w/ Carpet Brush and Extractor. Agreed, this one was highly abused and never respected. Thanks! It was a challenge, and once the car dried (which it wasn't in the pics) it really came out better than...

    Dodge Avenger- Worst Interior to Date

    Thanks! I used a PC7424XP with Carpet Brush attachment to agitate then extracted. Mine too, I actually had to run water through it to remove any possible residue that might have not passed through clearly. Couldn't imagine the residual smell! I certainly hope not!

    Dodge Avenger- Worst Interior to Date

    :nomore: :nomore: :nomore: Ok, so now let's start turning this thing around- Carpet shampoo, citrus degreaser, APC+, and a few other cleaning chemicals. 50/50 anyone? I hadn't done the seat belts yet due to time constraints on the rest of the interior. That's...

    Dodge Avenger- Worst Interior to Date

    Every once and a while you get a job that just shocks you... and not the way you want to be shocked when you're approached for a "it's not too bad" interior detail. The photos show pretty well what we were up again. In this case, the scrubber attachment on the PC was my saving grace to break...

    Critical Details: Honda Civic - Headlight Restoration

    Looks like the PC 7424 Great results, btw! Nice to see the work being done as well. How do you like the PC compared to hand sanding?

    Volvo V70 Wagon

    Thanks! This one had so many little compartments that things could hide away in, it took some dismantling to mind them all! Thanks again! I was well pleased with the interior on this car. The owner was quite pleased! They were unsure if most of it would come clean, so they were thrilled to...
