    Horizon Detailing - Custom S60 R Major Paint Correction

    Hi guys, Been really busy and backed up on getting write-ups out but I'm working overtime to change that :) Here's a beautiful Volvo S60 R, and very rare in this color combo as the owner told me. I believe it was in the teens or single digits of this color scheme. The car also had a bunch...

    An Essential Book for Detailing and Life

    Now this book isn't detailing-related per-se, but you need to pull in customers to get cars to detail! This book will help A LOT with that. An amazing book, definitely one of the best I've ever read. It will improve your people skills by leaps and bounds. And it's from 1936. I would really...

    Rough roof, smooth car?

    Hey guys. Hope everyone is well. I recently detailed a 2006 Lexus GS430 that had been bought used. Everything went well, car had about 68,000 on it but there was one problem. The roof was very rough, almost like overspray, which I suspect it is. However, it was odd because the overspray...

    2006 Jeep SRT8 Correction - Horizon Detailing

    Hey guys, Just a short write-up for this one, didn't get too many correction pics as it started and was quoted as a 2-step correction but ended up needing a 3-step as many of the scratches were quite deep and the paint was a bit more finicky than I thought. Medium hardness but for some...

    FL Detailer Needed

    I have a pair of G35 coupes looking for paint correction I believe. One's in Jacksonville and the other is just outside of Daytona Beach. Let me know if you're in the area. Must have some kind of portfolio or a detailing write-up. Thanks!

    Beat-up 2009 IS250 Revival

    This car came to me from a friend looking to refresh her car, I haven't seen it in at least a year. That's probably not the only thing it hasn't seen for a year, I would say a wash is up on the list too. This car had the toughest brake dust I've come across so far. Also, I was using my...

    Horizon Detailing: Trashed 2004 Acura TSX

    VIDEO AT THE BOTTOM OF THE POST Ok, so this car was so trashed that I decided I'd enter it in the monthly competition. I didn't take as many pictures as I would have liked, but you get the idea. The story behind this detail is the car was purchased at night and when the owner saw it in the...

    Horizon Detailing: 2008 BMW X3

    This BMW X3 was a client of mine that I got while I was down at my beach house. The paint was in incredibly good condition when I got there, I was very surprised. It was weird because the paint was in great condition, but everything else wasn't. The rims were coated in brake dust on the...

    Horizon Detailing: 2005 Jeep Grand Cherokee

    This Jeep is my Mom's daily driver, and it has been used like one. The paint was beat-up, has never seen a detail before or a wax. It is a blast to drive with the 325 hp and 370 hp. I was going for about 98% correction, all swirls gone with just a couple RIDS left that were just way too deep...
