    Mint 2015 S8

    Hello Everyone! Yes, it has been a very long time since I`ve posted in general, and a long time since I`ve posted any work. I guess I just dropped doing it out of laziness. Anyway, Jim texted me the day before asking how I was and telling me about the post asking about me. I`m glad I was...

    A Special Treat: 1970 Olds Cutlass S

    This car was a treat for me to do for several reasons. The first and most obvious is that it was very cool to work on a classic car. Secondly, this belongs to a good friend who`s owned it for years. He finally got it painted this year about a month before he had me coat it. The paint left a...

    Audi Q7 Gets Self Heal Lite

    This car belongs to my neighbour. They are very proud of it and decided to coat it with Feynlab Self Heal Lite. Here it is as it arrived. Just dirty and luckily very little contamination. Bird Poop etching that I later compounded away. The vehicle was washed...

    Possibly The Coolest Thing I`ve Coated

    To be considered the coolest thing I`ve coated, it has to be better than a mahogany speedboat that I did last year. What could top that? Well, how about a completely hand built, custom designed electric car that is based off of a 1930 Bugatti Roadster? What`s better is that my 80 year old...

    Glowing White: 2018 Pacifica

    This gentleman found my website when he was researching the very best protection for his paint. We discussed price/value and came up with a choice of Feynlab Ceramic. Considering that`s topped with their incredible Top Coat, you`ve got an extremely potent combo for protection at a very...

    Doing My Buddy`s new Pacifica van

    My good friend from work just had their second small child and a larger vehicle was in order. The perfect, quintessential family vehicle is Chrysler Pacifica van, which happens to be made in my hometown of Windsor, Ontario. Here it is as it arrived: It was the "S" version...

    Makin A Blingy Benz

    I had the pleasure of doing a couple of his vehicles about 2 years ago. He drives 2 hours to see me and I really appreciate his loyalty. This is a 2017 E400. It needed to be compounded on the hood (see video link below), otherwise it was a single stage polish. This car was going to be...

    Resurrecting 2007 Escalade....Again!

    This vehicle belongs to a great customer who is always enthusiastically sending people my way. I had done the car for him in November of 2016, about 18 months ago. Those months had been hard on it. During this long, brutal winter, a broom had been used to remove the snow from the hood. There...

    Richy`s Out From Hibernation: 2015 1LE Camaro

    I do enjoy taking the winter off detailing, not that I have much choice given that I live in Canada and work from my garage. I do like the break I give my body and gives me a chance to review what`s new. A HUGE part of my distraction, since mid November was the addition of Stella to our...

    17 Year Old Pontiac Sunfire Wears Feynlab Ceramic

    This car belongs to my mother in law. I`ve typically used it for a test bed on new products and usually detail it once a year to apply the latest thing. Last year, I applied Richard Wright`s Gloss Shop coating to it. I must say, it held up well for the most part. Some of it had dropped off...

    My Father`s 2011 GMC Sierra gets Ceramic

    My father is 80 years old and used to build hotrods when he was a kid. He`s lowered this truck and had custom made fender skirts for it. Very unique looking truck as a result! I coated his truck at least 3 years ago. It was due. It also had some bad scratches in it from using the wrong...

    Solved My Karcher issue

    My old Karcher PW lasted approx 8 years. It owed me nothing. Finally the motor would continuously run when you released the handle. It also lacked a spool to roll up the hose when done, and I was envious of the new models that had that feature. So I bought a new one and sold my old one. The...

    2017 black BMW M4 Self Healed

    This gentleman was a referral. He was very excited to get his car done and is an extreme perfectionist. The front had been wrapped as had halfway up the doors. What paint was left was polished with M205 and a Carpro Gloss pad + 3401. The parts that could not get Heal Lite were treated to...
