    Chrome/Aliminium Window surrounds on Audi S8

    Hi Team, this question has probably been done to death already but I didn't find anything with a search. Has anyone had any joy with bringing back the appearance from the milky white staining that Audi's (and most other Euro's as well for that matter) seem to get on the metal window...

    Old Suede Dashboard 73 Ferrari Dino

    Sorry guys no pictures to show what I'm attempting to tidy up but one of my good customers has a 73 Ferrari Dino that is in great condition for it's age. It's by no means a concours car but mostly original hence the problem I'm facing. The dash is original and looks to me like it was...

    Another Aston - She's abeauty though

    I'd heard about this car coming to New Zealand about 6 months ago and we've been eagerly anticipating it's arrival. With only 77 of them worldwide I think our wee country is pretty fortunate to have one come here. Aston's as everyone knows have great paint but they seldom arrive from the...

    It's been an interesting week.

    I know you guys hate posts with few detailing 'details' as per technique but I couldn't resist a post about the vehicles that I had through in the last 10 days. It's been ages since I had such a varied week or so. It started with one of my dream vehicles. The Stillen Ford GT. I'd been wanting...

    Matt Black finishes?

    I have a couple of regular customers with BMW cabrio's one a 645 and the other a 650, they're both black. They clean up nicely (the 650 has almost white leather and it's a mongrel to keep clean) but I'm at a bit of a loss as to the best product - if any; to use on the matt black area behind the...

    04 Mercedes 500SL

    While I wait to hear back about one of my vans that has just been stolen I thought I put up a post about a Mercedes that we corrected the paint on last week. (we have GPS tracking in the van so it's all quite exciting and the police should be on the scene any minute) Anyway, a regular...

    Kiwi's anywhere?

    I'd be keen to touch base with any Kiwi Autopians if there are any others out there still. There are to many amazing cars around for there not to be surely...

    1994 Chev Corvette

    We don't have too many of these driving around here but they come out of the woodwork for car show season and I reckon they're a great looking car. This one is pretty immaculate for a 20 year old girl but even though the owners have looked after the paint well there are a few signs of aging so...

    Shocker- The before photo's could bring tears to your eyes.

    Recently I recieved a call. The customer was quite distressed, somewhat concerned that they may be needing to repaint a complete vehicle. To Cut a long story short, this sales reps car had been spattered with paint overspray and a 'reputable mobile detail company' had been called in to help...

    1997 Ford Falcon GT

    NZers usually don't support Aussies in anything, it would be quite wrong not to keep a frienly rivalry going except when it's ANZAC Day which is tomorrow -Lest We Forget. However the Australians do make some pretty awesome cars and they're not bad people really :p The 1997 Ford Falcon GT...

    G'day from New Zealand

    G'day from Auckland NZ, while pretty new to the online detailing community I've been polishing cars and doing minor stonechip and scratch repairs for quite some time. We've recently began to get increasingly involved in the real enthusiast side of car presentation and the more I look into it...
