Since I am now on the prowl for a new job, I ran across this You Tube (does have some cursing) vid. YouTube - Job Hunting: Detailing Cars With Master C   http://youtu.be/wnd04N5xHIM At least it was not a Lambo or something. I think that you will cringe a couple of times, at least.

I am looking for someone in the Kingston, Ontorio area to take care of my client's 74 Triumph TR6. He will be moving to this area shortly and needs someone to care for his car. I just finished detailing it today after a pretty long paint correction session. Overall the maintenance should be just...

Of course, for us, the fun stuff happens on the outside of the car. Getting the paint gloss and the clarity just right, is partly why we all got into detailing. The fact still remains however that no matter how good the outside is, we all spend most of the time on the inside. I think it was...

When I arrived in the shop ready to work, I was surprised by a delivery from UPS. It was the HD UNO Total Auto polish sample that finally made it from DavidB. Karma is funny how it works because on this same day I had a Midnight Blue 2007 Lexus 350 ES scheduled for just one of our regular full...

I am not one to get upset about much, but when it comes to an investment where you feel like you are getting taken, then that can be another story. On May 10th, 2009 I decided to join the NAPDR (Detailers Association) in hopes that it would provide my business with critical industry news, a...

There is nothing like working on a classic and this to me was one. The owner of this vehicle did not want anything fancy. He comes from 2 generations of BMW owners and is very proud of this tradition. However, he has decided to part with his M3 and ask if I could do some things to spruce it up a...

Well in life you have good people pass your path and then they leave. Thomas (TDEKANY) is packing up and finally off to Oregon with his wife. And just as it should be Thomas and I finished off doing a BMW M3 (which is for sale) just this past Saturday. Thomas you have taught me a lot...

Well as Thomas has left our regional vicinity of North Virginia:sadpace: he was kind enough to refer me to one of his clients with a Mercedes GL 450. The customer that he referred me to was an awesome client who wanted to maintain his vehicle as best as possible. I went and picked up the...

This 2003 Dodge RAM 2500 was a rarity where you have a King Cab and a Full Bed along with of course the Hemi. MAN what a truck, but it surely was hurting when it came into my shop. The owner asked for a lundry list of items to complete this detail and that is where the story begins. On the...

About a couple of weeks ago we got a call about a metallic grey Mazda 6 that had an issue with acid rain on the hood, roof and trunk lid. When the gentleman brought the car over to the shop, the car was sporting the Zaino shine, so I knew that this person must have tried almost everything that...

I have been wondering about this process for a while. Normally I use water and I have also used clay lube. Something, however, has always seemed intriguing to me about using steam. If anyone has seen a steamer, you know the cleaning power that it has. This along with the temp of the steam would...
