Well, I got a call from a loyal customer yesterday wanting me to work on a car that just came over from Japan. Luckily, it was my last day off of school between semesters (96% average :buffing: ) and I was happy to help him out. Car was in worse shape than I had hoped, and was all...

So I was thinking for my upcoming season of detailing, I'd add anouther thing to my detailing check list on full details. I want to add undercoating to my list of things so I dont' have to waste so much dressing, and it will actually stay looking nice. Now my question is, what kind of...

Lets see it. We all must have some actions shots from our work. Here is one a customer took of me in the convention center, prepping his SRT-4 for the Sport Compact Nights show.

Well, I'm currently in the books to have some shirts done, and was wondering what my logo should be like? Anyone have any examples of what theirs look like? Here is my logo thats on my business cards: I don't really want to go with something like that, as its too long, and would look...

I've setup the basic structure, and am making final adjustments. The wording on the home page, and pricing page is not final. For the pricing, it will have a menu where you select your type of car, size ect, and then just basically it will give you a general quote. Links and tips for car...

Well, its cold up here, with LOTS of snow, but I still risked the elements to give you some shocking results on Collonite 476S Double Coat wax. It still beads like new! I was shocked, after almost 3-4 months, maybe 5 (my brain is cold), and it still looks like new. Its seen +30oC all the...

I just wanted to brag that the snow finally came. Guess this means I don't have any more cars to do. :getdown We went from no snow at 6 pm, to over 3 feet in my driveway at 4 pm today. This is taken in the afternoon. I had shovled aready in the morning. How fun. :wall

I searched for some results on extractors, but I couldn't find anything on what I'm asking. What I'm looking for, is a extractor thats neither cheap or expensive. I need something that will do a good job, and replace some physical labour demanded from the old brush and pail method of...

Had the pleasure to work on this 1992 Civic. I was surprised as when the customer described it as "just a civic". When he pulled up, I see a turbo/IC, customer interior, full bodykit, big rims, ect. Very nice. Anyways, it was a nice relaxing day today. Total detail time only took about 4...

Worked on one of the last exteriors I'll be doin this season. Of course it had to be a sucker of a job too. :( Took me forever to do it, but I felt good one it was done. The black paint on all the horizontal surfaces looked pretty decent for its age, but the sides were BAD. A trouble...

Subject: 1991 Acura Legend Condition: Sad Worked on a customer's 1991 Acura Legend today. Black, grey, and grit were the name of the game today. I don't understand, but I couldn't get much "slickness" back to the paint, even after numerous attempts at claying, and such. Surprisingly...

I was wondering how old normal 50 year old paint would be? Safe to wetsand? It would be on a 56 Pontiac.

Did a friends car today, just a 3 stage polish, with no major trouble spots. Processes: -Wash (done by owner) -SSR 2.5 on cutting pad -SSR 2 on cutting pad - Sonus "2"? Or something like that on polishing pad -Topped with express wax by automagic (what most dealers call their...

*UPDATED! Look at Second page! Just recieved the car tonight, so please wait patiently with this teaser. Before/afters to come tomorrow.

Man, today was definatly a headache. I resorted to some very un-ethical methods, that I will have nightmares of till I die. I think the first picture says it all, but I don't know, see for yourself. The stuff was there for almost a month by my guess, and had hardened. Customer...

2001 Altima. Ugly shape. Engine bay was just a quick wipe down, did 'er for nothing. Car is driven in rural area's all of its life, as the lady does lots of work out of town. Bugs littered the front end, along with 4 hours worth of tar. Processes: Wash with dawn. Clay 2x Varsol...

I recieved my container of Collinite 476S about 2 days ago; from Ed at No Swirl Polish Detailing. This review is compleltly non-biased and you can be assured I will give my honest opinion. When I first looked at the container, I thought "whoa, this stuff must be 30 years old!". The looks...

I have a update on #845 Insulator Wax. I applied it on the blazer about 2 weeks ago, and I thought I'd try and wash it to test the durabilty and slickness. I must say, I'm very impressed with the slickness of this wax. It is very close to the slickness that it had when first applied...

Before you read this, don't reply if you have some smart *** comment about asking things over the web and ****. Please, I don't need to hear it. Ok, as most of you all know, I'm young, 17 to be exact, and I've recently fallen victim to drug addiction. No, not myself, but someone very close...
