This was sent to me by a fellow Canadian. We are concerned about your country`s direction too!! If you place a frog in a pot of boiling water, it will immediately try to scramble out. But if you place the frog in room temperature water, and don`t scare him, he`ll stay put. Now, if the pot...

I did an F Type Jag for a gentleman about a month ago or so and he was kind enough to refer a friend of his who also owns a brand new F Type to me for Finest treatment. (I gotta pick better friends so I can own one too!! LOL). When I saw it I convinced him to have me do the wheels and I`m glad...

This lady found me through her website and brought me the car to examine. Someone had really messed up the paint. In one area of the hood it was badly scratched from their "repair" but the worst was these huge touch up spots that were a different colour. It looked like this 12 year old had a...

I kept getting these messages from Photobucket saying I was getting close to my limit of pics on their site (I use the Pro version for more storage). To try to free up some storage, I wanted to erase an old directory of shots that I no longer reference. I deleted the wrong one, but when it asked...

This car was a referral. I love referrals as it means someone you have done work for is putting their reputation and word on the line for you so I take them seriously and try to make sure both people are very happy. The owner of this car is the wife of someone who used to paint cars on the...

I`ve been lucky enough to have 3 weeks of vacation from work. During the first week I banged out 4 cars back to back, ending with the `17 370z. Tomorrow my family is heading out to a place in Ontario called Grand Bend. It`s on the beach of Lake Huron and we`ll be there for a few days. Got...

I had this car booked for a while and the customer was gracious enough to let me bump his slot a few times, so I took care of him by doing his windshield for free with Forte. This is a brand new Nissan 370z Nismo edition. Glorious. Gorgeous. Pick whatever "G" word you want, it was...

I bumped this up to get it done for a fellow LEO co-worker who is getting married and wanted it done in time for his wedding. It is new and was getting a one step and a double coat of Gloss Coat. I didn`t get a lot of before shots as I had already done 2 wheels when I realized it. Regardless...

This car was booked to get whatever coating I thought the customer would like. It was going to need some heavy correction, so I went with my entry level coating: Gloss Coat, albeit with a double coat to save him some $$. Here it is as it arrived: It was extremely hot out and I...

La Bella Putana indeed. This gorgeous red Alfa Romeo was slated to get dressed in her best...her Finest in fact. I made an interesting discovery during my journey with this car that I`ll share shortly. This was to be and inside and out job, although I did not shoot the inside. This car is a...

I don`t suffer from it (that`s probably debatable, but bear with me), but I am going to call a meeting at my house for people who suffer from OCD. My plan is to point out how dirty it is and let things unfold as they may...

This is supposed to read F A I R Y tale ending. No idea why the forum would block that?? Oh, well, now you know what was blocked out. This gentleman found me via my website. He brought the car around for me to see in the Spring, but I was booked up until now. It sure looked worse now than...

This gentleman found me via my website. He was looking for the best for his brand new 2017 Jaguar F Type R. We were intending on pulling the wheels but it turns out the locking wheel nut key was missing so that had to be skipped and I will get it back to do the barrels and calipers once it is...

I was really looking forward to doing this car although I knew (or suspected) that the paint would be extremely challenging. There were 3 things that were going to be new for this detail: #1: For the first time ever, I had someone come to watch me detail to learn how I do things (more on that...

I tried to copy over this thread from L2D and AG. I wrote it on L2D and copied and pasted it (like I always do) to AG where it obviously worked fine. The words pasted, but none of the pics did. Can an Administrator help me so I may copy this thread over here too? Thanks in advance. 19 year...

4 years ago I had my garage floor coated. For anyone interested, here was that thread: Rich's Garage Makeover On another note, due to Mike`s recommendation and great results he was getting using Malco Brake Off, I bought some and did a review. Here is that review: The Good, The Bad & The...

This female customer of this beast of a vehicle (how cool is that?!) was a referral from another job I did a few years back. They have kindly sent me quite a few people. This was to be a wheels off, Finest detail. It`s a 2016 and it only needed a one step, save and except for a few light...

Anyone try it yet? Their Flat Top is great. I just saw this on Corey`s site and ordered some based on the writeup and discussing it with him. Given some of the rock hard paints I`ve had lately, I think I can really use this. Let me know what you think of it. I`d probably be using it with my...

I`ve had several people comment on something I`ve done with my website that I am sure has driven some people to use me vs someone else. I ask each customer to provide feedback for the job I`ve done and I have a section of my website called "Activity Blog" which is where it gets posted to. This...

This gentleman found my via my website and wanted the Finest for his baby. He`s been wanting a convertible Mustang for years and finally indulged. He wanted it to look as good as possible and have the best protection available for it as well. I had that covered! This was going to be a wheels...
