It's always nice to see the car owner light up when they see what a proper cleaning and correcting job can do on even a mildly dirty interior. Unfortunately if I am prsented with an incredibly filth interior driven by someone that doesn't even notice it (female college student), and I take four shopping bags full of food wrappers, Starbucks cups, empty water bottles etc to the trash can, it isn't even noticed. I had a good friend ask me to detail his daughters car and I don't think she even noticed. Spends all her time texting and tweeting, hard to believe she hasn't crashed the car yet.

But back to your work, absolutely perfect. I hope you do get the chance to correct her paint. I just worked on an Olds with the same paint color and it looks soo much better without marring and swirls.

I have been using brushes on my Cyclo for years and they can't be beat. I may get several for my PC so I can more easily turn the speed down to control fling. I finally started using a Variac to slow down the Cyclo while using the brushes.

Some people are. Sometimes you have the chance to talk to them as you do your work, and try to "educate" them. The last detail I did (Friday) we spent 9 hours at this guys place and he was a great host, a total gearhead, and an engine builder who shared the same attention to detail as we did, only not in the interior. I think we messed him up! These are the good clients, who see it worth the effort to care for their finish. But others, like the twitting college student, just stay away from the job. I guess their passion is somewhere else. Oh well, those are the ones you charge every last minute ;) Don't let them get to you, man! You know the work you do is top notch, and there is nothing more satisfying than putting all your effort into something.

Great clients really motivate us to push harder! There is nothing like feeling clients start to "get it". Plus, is usually leads to further correction ;)

This client already lined us up with a new client, estimate to be performed this week!

Amazing work. The leather really seemed to need the most help on this vehicle and you guys were extremely thorough. The multi-step process on the leather was more of a restoration than a reconditioning. :righton:
