    Blended Paint/Clearcoat

    My drivers side doors and some of the quarterpanel a pretty darn hazy. Before I do any correction I'd like to know what I'm getting into. Growing up around the bodyshop I can definitely tell the sides been repainted and blended into the quarter. Normally it's wetsanded and buffed and it isn't...

    Jetta Cleanup

    Yea, finally got around to editing the pictures I took last weekend. My camera is on its last leg, so only half the pictures I wanted looked right. I mostly have befores of the interior, the lighting the next day was really wigging out the camera. You can see fresh from the car lot and it's a...

    Bought Me a Gas Saver!

    So recently I've been driving over 80mi a day for work and the Frontier was just killing me on gas. Filling up at a sum of over $65 every 4 days was getting old. Plus at 70K miles, it needed some rigorous maintenance. I figured I'd use that money for a nice down payment. The Equinox is being...

    Oxidation, Or?

    This spot on the hood started to develop about a month ago. Noticed it one day after washing the truck. Now, it seems the hip and back of the hood is doing the same thing. I realize my sealant (PB EX with Carn.) is about the end of its rein, but the truck still beads decent. Is this an oxidation...

    Washing In The Sun

    I know this is regarded as a no-no in the detailing world for the most part, but I've found it near impossible at my home. My garage cannot handle the water without dragging everything out, would be very time consuming every weekend. There is not a time of day that the sun does not hit my...

    2007 Nissan Frontier Nismo - Winter Detail

    This is my baby so to say. I spent almost a year finding the exact one I wanted. It was almost flaswless besides a few swirls and scratches. The goal wasn't complete correction, as this is my daily driver and I'm sure someones will stick a cart or door in it again. I do not have too many befores...

    2008 Chevy Equinox - New D/A Test

    Just got in my new Griot's Garage 6" DA and have been itching to try it out. I'm still very new to this, so you'll have to bear with me. Also learning how to capture defects, but I think I got it to where you can see. This is my 2008 Chevy Equinox. Bought it for a deal (Less that 15K with 50K...
