Hi guys, I just wanted to re-introduce myself back to the forum. I see a lot of new to me guys on here and alot of the veterans from before.....like Bobby G, I'm glad to see you haven't stopped dropping the knowledge Bobby!
For all the guys who (may) remember me from before, its good to be talking with ya again, to the guys who don't, well I'm sorry I wasn't more memorable lol and to the new guys, I look forward to discussing the wonderful world of detailing with ya!
I stopped detailing for money about 10 months ago. I was blessed enough to be slammed with jobs but it wore me out. What did it for me was an oxidized 5th wheel RV that I buffed in the middle of summer, in 90+ degree heat and in the sun....for a week and half straight by myself. I would come home from a 10 hour shift and work on it until dark for about a 1.5 weeks e-v-e-r-y-d-a-y, and still working a 60+ hour work week. It was rough to say the least.
Once I completed the RV on a Friday night, it was picked up about 6 that evening and a 85 Vette was dropped off that was getting the whole deal, complete correction and all the works in and out. The RV wore me out and I had to have this thing ready for a Sunday show. I completed that and decided I was working waaay too hard, I didnt' have time with my wife and new daughter....so I cancelled the work I had lined up and stopped. I would do one here and there for friends but nothing like i was doing.....which was constant.
Needless to say I couldn't stay away any longer. Im going to give it another go....just not all out this time, maybe 2-3 a month. Spring is almost here and Ive had a couple calls so Im thinking hey, if I can keep it enjoyble and not have to meet crazy deadlines I should be happy.
Anyway, there have been a ton of new products released and the Bigfoot has my attention. Im' looking forward to it.
One other thing, show n shines are still amazing, Im glad to see the talent hasn't left this place!
