    Ammo training on you tube

    Watched the new video from Larry last night. While I think Larry tends to run on, Having Kevin Brown with him is excellent! I had the pleasure of being with Kevin for 8 days a couple years ago and I can tell you he’s the nicest guy you could meet! This is an excellent chance to learn from him...

    1973 Mercedes 450SL, 3 shops said no Shine left!

    Previous client recently purchased this car and had taken it to 3 shops local to him who told him the paint was to far gone. One shop even tried a small section with who ever knows what and gave up! They didn’t even wipe off the product! Now just so you know, we were just looking for Shine, not...

    2019 Range Rover, thank you Griot’s!

    This long time client recently took delivery of the vehicle. Washed at dealership before coming to me. I think you know where this is going! I got the vehicle maybe a week after he got it, so no one else has touched it. As you can see, it was absolutely trashed. This was a very difficult paint...

    New Ford Raptor, hate these things!

    This previous client recently purchased this very nice truck and wanted to start off with the best, Modesta. I’ve done a couple of these and they just have so many stickers and plastic trim to work around! I must have used 10 miles of tape! One interesting thing was the top surfaces were much...

    New client who called before delivery and asked what to tell the dealership to do to his car when it came in. Obviously we told him to not allow them to touch it, and after signing the Tesla waiver, they left it alone. Only found a couple of minor blemishes probably from transport. Cutting done...

    Long time client recently found this rare optioned car. Last year for a manual and super charger and all the options. The only problem was it belonged to the owner of a dealership in Connecticut.

    2018 SRT Durango,Mopar 18 edition

    This is a new client who wanted to start off with the best protection possible, Modesta. This is a special low production model, only 250 made in this edition. I must say I’m pretty disappointed in the fit and finish from dodge. And I am a dodge owner! The vehicle is painted the base color and...

    Volkswagen Phaeton, quite a challenge

    New to this client, this car came from Texas and had a rough life! Client had front end repainted due to stone chips, and the body shop didn’t do us any favors. First repaint was wrong color! So after they got it right the car had 30 mils of paint on the front, compared to 8-9 on the rest! Along...

    Ford F-150 in show room condition my butt!

    New client who is a referral from a friend. He told me on the phone it was a 2012 one owner with very low miles. He said he babies it and it was in showroom condition. As you will see it was a little rough. And to make matters worse, he doesn’t use soap when he washes! We did teach him how to...

    2019 Hyundai Kona protected by Modesta

    Previous client just purchased this and wanted it protected before going to Arizona for the winter. I must admit I really like the color combination!

    1981 Porsche original paint gets Griot’s

    This new to my previous client 911 came in to “ make it better “. All in all a nice car. The more newer ones I do the more I like the air cooled ones! At some point in its life somebody thought it needed sanding? Lots of very deep sanding tracers that could not be removed safely. We decided that...

    2002 cobra in for recoating

    Coated this car about 2 years ago and since it pretty much stays indoors, the coating was holding up well. While at the shop for maintenance, construction work in the area resulted in some type of contamination to the paint. This required extensive decontamination both chemical and mechanical...

    Finally got to just wax!

    Although 95% of our work is Modesta, I still enjoy waxing a car. After doing a few of these civic type R’s, the local club has sent me more members. This new client enjoys waxing but wanted it corrected before he took over care. I find these cars difficult because of all the goodies stuck on...
