Anthony! That's cool he helped you with this.

Wow, didn’t know Anthony co-owned. He’s a lot more than a detailer!

He stopped detailing. He sold his interest in the shop.

Awww. He was one of the best! Guess he traded in his buffer for a business suit

Not exactly, he's running it out of the shop location and from the NXTZEN website looks like Ron is involved too. Anthony talked about it on Autopia, I think, he was at SEMA last fall.

Now I think I vaguely remember something about that

I dunno, the NXTZEN address is the same as Concours Auto Salon, so I don't know what he worked out with Ron.

According to Anthony, when I talked to him on the phone, he is still very involved with training detailers to use the NXTZEN products and is STILL a "Detail Junkie," HIS WORDS.

So I wouldn't be surprised at all, if he still made it to the shop section and 'got his hands dirty' fairly often.

 

[Bill D]

He’s quite the talent. I hope never completely stops detailing

I'll just say 2 more things about Anthony and then stop jacking Don's thread. Anthony is the conceptual father of Opti-Coat and Opti-Seal. According to Anthony's account, he was having dinner with Dr. G after a training session for Optimum polishes at a GM plant, and Dr. G asked him what kind of detailing products he would like to see, and Anthony said "a sealant that you could just wipe on and walk away, and would last forever". So Dr. G went to work and eventually came up with Opti-Coat, developing Opti-Seal along the way.

Also, I'll credit Anthony with being I think the first detailer to post videos of washing with ONR, kind of ushering in the era of rinseless washes.
