I can not express how excited I was to work on this car. I have been in talks with the client for a good 4 months just waiting for him to actually have the car. Well, the car came in on the 26th and we booked it for today. I told him to let the dealer know they were not to wash the car which...

I have history with this car. I used to do maintenance washes all the time for the original owner. Now there is another owner and my name was carried over. He called about some shingles that fell on the car after a roofing accident at his apartment. We looked at the damage and agreed to wetsand...

This is the second white C7 but first 2015 that I have detailed. I love the white but I'm still waiting for the Laguna blue haha.    I told the guy not to let the dealer wash the car when it came in. He went through with that and he said the dealer said it was a strange request but they...

This was a very special car and detail for me. I grew up with a Countach poster on my wall (as well as some other cars) and I have always loved these things. The car was built not thinking of practicality or comfort, they wanted a car to stand out, be outrageous, and that is what they got. The...

The car came in for consignment and I quoted a price for the paint and interior work that needed to be done. Client gave me the go ahead to proceed so over the last 2 days we knocked it out. The seats were removed to clean the carpets correctly. Seats and the rest of the leather were cleaned...

I noticed on the black pearl site that there are 3 different formulas. A glossy, clear, and matte. Has anyone tried all 3 and are there pictures showing the differences?

After a long while away I am making my way back home. I started on Autopia back in 2004/5 when I was first getting into this world of detailing. Over the years the forum became full of babies, BS, and was getting away from all that I loved about it. Lately I have had clients telling me they were...

I was told this was an RS7 but no badging so maybe S7? Either way, its sweet! Paint was in pretty bad shape and typical Audi hard clear. The guy was hesitant because he had never had a proper detail and wasn't used to it costing more than $100. After the pictures he was just fine with it LOL. He...

A great client who has more cars than I have seen and have been working on his collection for years now. He had to build a separate garage that holds an additional 7 cars to his normal 4 car garage. Huge Porsche fanatic, well German fanatic really. He did buy a 599 last year and is thinking of...

I have been away for a few years because I got tired of all the forum style bitching and whining. I have had a few clients recently tell me they found me through Autopia and that a lot of people referred them to me. I want to say thank you for the support and I will be back posting up here and...

I know this isn't the "designated" area to post this but nobody posts in the tx area so I'm hoping this gets noticed a bit more. I am looking to hire someone immedietaly for a full time position, experienced would be nice. Must be very detail oriented and have a love for detailing. If you or...

HD Fabric vs CQuartz Fabric. A few things about the 2 products. HD is an aerosol spray, while CQ is a trigger style sprayer. HD is $12.99 for a 10oz bottle while CQ is $21.99 for 100ml (3.4oz). The aerosol sprayer on the HD can, is a very smooth, soft (if that makes sense) type of spray...

Hello all. I received an email from someone who saw my work on some RS5's that I detailed. He is wanting to know if I can refer someone to him in his area for his RS5. Can anyone let me know who is recommended in that area? I looked on the directory but it doesn't tell me much about them. Thanks...

Last year i had my windshield replaced due to a nice rock from the freeway. This was in October 2011. When the new windshield was installed, 2 weeks later I applied Aquapel on the driver side, and G1 from Gtechniq on the passenger side. I have a few videos showing how the water reacts during...

Okay, so I have been trying to read up and get some information on this new towel some people are using. I have read a lot of the NanoSkin towel but when I go to DB's site I only see the pad you use with a polisher. Then I read about SM Arnold, who I have never heard of, and its called the...
