After a long 2 years of searching for the right combo of colors, price, and mileage I finally came across a car that fit the bill. I got her all washed up last night and unfortunately the previous owners neglected the paint so it does need some help. Most of the damage can be corrected with some...

This detail was supposed to start out as a bronze package detail which is a wash, wax, and interior detail. The customer told me it was bad which in my terms means horrible. I don't think there was anyway to brace myself for what I saw when it arrived. Worse part is last year I told her I was...

Today I had a Chevrolet Traverse come to my place to get a silver package detail which is the wash, clay, 1 step polish, wax, engine bay, and interior. It was in pretty good shape overall. The interior was just dirty with no stains so that made it nice. The exterior was pretty smooth for the...

If it has paint and chrome I can detail that too. My cousin brought me over his Harley Davidson Sportster to detail. Process was a strip wash with Chemical Guys Citrus Wash and Gloss. I used various size brushes to clean the rims and engine bay with Megs Super Degreaser. The rims got Poorboys...

I just finished this one up today and man did it beat me up. G8's have a lot of paint so trying to get this done in a timely manner was a challenge. I am pretty damn sore from head to toe from this one but its all in a days work. This customer came from Michigan and drove 3 1/2 hours one way to...

I finished up this detail yesterday. They went a silver package detail and it was in desperate need of some attention. The paint was pretty hammered with a lot of defects that were way too deep for a one step polish. The tires needed to be hit 2 times because of the amount of the dirt on them...

Today I finished up a neglected GMC Sierra Diesel. The inside was pretty dirty but nothing worse then I have tackled before. The exterior this time was just a one step with Menzerna Power Finish 2500 since that is the package the customer selected. This is a farm truck so I did find some hay and...

I got my first customer that went with my platinum package detail which involves a 3 step polishing process. The truck gets used at truck pulls and seems like a pretty damn fast truck. The interior was pretty well kept up, just had a few stains. The exterior was in rough shape. He said he clayed...

Well I finally have my car the way I want it with exterior mods. The car has really come along way since I bought up a little over a year ago. I debadged the entire car, lowered it on DNA springs, got the SE lip put on and painted along with the rear plastic bumper insert. I decided since I had...

This was the customer from today. The color was the same as my old blue GXP so I knew it had a lot of potential to look awesome. The outside was in some pretty rough shape so I busted out my Menzerna FG-400 on a white pad to get a good amount of cut and still be able to finish with a nice shine...

Well I opened up my detailing season with hands down the worst interior of a car to date. Not only was the car a mess the meteorologist screwed up the forecast (imagine that) and it was cold. I left my brushes out after I washed the car and they were frozen solid. Normally I don't post the...

With banners and signs that is. I finally got up my Ohio State Fathead decals along with some other detailing banners. I will warn you if you aren't a Bucks fan you may want to enter with caution haha. I can finally say the garage really feels like it is mine now. Enjoy the pics. As you can see...

There is a person that is local to me that makes custom signs that she paints and adds graphics and decals to. I am going to be getting one or maybe 2 for my garage if I can figure out what I want for the saying. On the 1 I am going to do for sure will be an Ohio State themed sign. My garage...

I will be ordering either the speedy prep towel or the nanoskin autoscrub wash mitt and was trying to decide on which grade. After doing some searching it seems that the overall consensus was to go with the fine grade. I detail as a side job so I see some pretty contaminated paint 80% of the...

I was looking at Menz line of polishes and saw they have a new polish that is coming out sometime soon. Has anyone gotten to use Fast Gloss or heard anything about it? Price tag is a little hefty which is why I figured I would ask here to see if anyone has any input? Thanks!

As some of you may know I work at Walmart and our Black Friday ad released. I was looking at the cameras that were in there because I was interested in getting a DSLR to use for my detailing pictures to get some better shots then my point and shot digital camera. These are the 2 cameras that are...

This was my last customer of the year and the husband of the Enclave that I just posted. Kind of glade because washing the truck in 38* weather with a real feel of 28* really isnt a lot of fun lol. This is also his 3rd time around with me and using my detailing services. He has also followed...

This is the second year in a row that I have done this customers vehicle. I can tell they took my advice from last year since the paint was in a lot better shape then it was the first time I corrected it. Inside was the same shape as before though. Enjoy the pics! interior before...

I've noticed on the last few details that I've done that PL is leaving a residue behind after I remove it. After I polish I do a heavy IPA wipe down which leaves the surface clean. I am having a hell of a time getting it removed with my waterless wash. Anyone else have this happen to them?
