    A Steel Grey BMW 325i (E46) Detailed

    Well, I'm wishing the weather was a bit better, therfore I'd have a bunch more details, but all this rain has been screwing me up. The weather barely held out for this one, but I got it in :). This car belongs to a fraternity brother of mine. You will see his old car in some of the pics...

    Weekend Details - v. High Def Lex, 12 yr old P/U, + Swirly CTS

    First up is the Lexus. 1999 RX300 with only 16k miles!!! This car is a cherry. The owner (my client) has been my mechanic for most of my life. Everything works flawless on it. The paint is always in nice shape and the only problem it has had was acid rain etching on the glass which I...

    New "Oxi-Clean Max" to sub-conciously target mobile detailers

    Being mobile, you often lack the creature comforts of hot water availability. With Oxi-Clean and other carpet cleaning products, I find that the heated water acts as a catalyst with the cleaner to make it perform better. In the past, I have gone to the extent of either asking the customer to...

    GSRstilez's 100,000 mile photoshoot

    Touched 100k earlier this week and pulled quickly off the road to snap a picture. It was a bitter-sweet moment in that the car is really in great shape, but its going to be harder to sell a car over that 100k psychological barrier. I have a couple minor problems with her that I will have...

    UPDATE ON PAGE 3 First up, the ones to be sold. The owner told me they were pretty dirty and definately needed work. Definately had to agree with that statement, whole heartedly. I do appreciate the honesty of customers like that though. Most would just say, "Oh they're not too bad...

    Menzerna PG,FPII,FMJ > Atrocious Accord

    Wow, just wow. A mess is an understatement for this puppy. I think the year is around 1996 and if it was never detailed, it wouldn't surprise me. It had everything from heavy etching to oxidation to staining to SWIRLING and everything in between. This vehicle was a test panel for some...
