    Suggestions for Paintless Dent Repair in North Carolina?

    I dinged up my front bumper/quarter panel my new car in the snow last weekend. The region hit was covered by clear bra--so I think dent wizard, a little polishing and a new clear bra should do the job (thank god for the clear bra). Can anyone recommend a good paintless dent person in the...

    New M35 on Zaino

    I sold my 2004 V70R last week and this past week I brought this baby home, 2009 M35 in Blue Slate. I had a clear bra and tint done same day I bought her (terrific guy in Morrisville who runs a shop called Total Vehicle Protection). I think the tint (35%) really helps the look on this car...

Today I just did a fourth SG layer (all using Bill's great WOWO method). The car looks very nice (2004 Titanium Grey V70R) but I wouldn't mind...

    1st Detail with PC

    I just finished my first detailing of my V70R with a PC. I picked up the car in February and had 4 coats of Zaino on it. I liked the shine and durability of the Zaino but I wanted to try a different look and wanted to try out the PC. Here's my steps; wash Clay Wash dry Painter's tape...
