I think the last thread I made was about a year ago, so a quick update will precede the jobs I've collected here for you all. Business has been up 30% each year since the start, but this year's Winter and Spring are up almost 60%. I held a GroupOn during the Fall/Winter of 2011 and had 150+...

Fourteen months since the last time I started a Before & After thread; countless jobs in that period of time, many good pictures and an equal amount of "why did I take a picture of that?" but all happy customers. :clap2: BBS Lips, in for polishing with 800/1000/1500/2000 and finished with...

Personally, I usually taken the least aggressive approach first but knowing that this Porsche had some serious swirling I jumped right into 105 w/ green on my Makita and polished the entire vehicle to find the 'hidden' defects. Followed that with 105 w/ yellow for half a dozen difficult spots-...

M105 on yellow M85 on green M205 on blue w/ PC Topped with Nattys Red Not pictured: Wheels got P21S, tires and wells got Meg APC. It was cloudy all day, rinsed and washed the car in the rain. Pulled inside for clay, masking and paint correction. Consistent representation of what I started...

From 30ft away the defects were clearly visible, paint had no depth: Photo removed in violation of forum rules From 5 ft away, the entire vehicle had significant scratches, holograms, swirls: Even closer, very condensed swirls: Washed with ONR, clayed with Meguiars...

Here are some notable details from the past month. Teton Homes 40' 5th Wheel Wash and Wax 40' and 35 gallons of water consumed. Removed the A/C and SAT covers on the roof, used frankensoap and both long telescoping and short handle brushes. Canopy was discolored due to standing...

I heard you like detailing, so I figured you could detail the van you use as a detailing van. Everyone I meet always asks, 'So you detail cars for a living? I bet your vehicle is always clean.' Completely the opposite. Except today the floor needed a good scrub and vac, nothing fancy in terms...

They said 'Treat it like a car, get every nook and cranny'- so I did. Usually a job like this takes me 7-8 hours and anyone who does RV services will agree that we use a broad stroke method rather than a detail brush method. Meaning that if it's cleaner than when you started and you take care of...

The first two are a pair of interior details; both of which were done with an APC, Woolite, detail brush, nylon scrubber and a few microfibers. Using kissmetrics (keep it simple, stupid) can produce a huge difference. A brand new M3 detail, fresh from the dealer who was instructed not...

I don't ever do these writeups so if it's lacking something you'll have to excuse me. The rain in CT has afforded me the opportunity- so here's what's happened at Eco Auto Detail this past week. The vehicles/jobs not included are a Highlander and Rubicon light exterior polish, a destroyed Yukon...

What kind of pump solution is there for someone who wants a low pressure garden hose fed from a trailer mounted water tank? I'd like an alternative to the pressure washer for early morning use and noise sensitive areas. Any suggestions? I've seen 12V inline water pumps with 3/4" fittings...

Salutations, The story starts like this; I owned and operated a small used car dealership until the end of last year after being in service and management departments for the six years prior. At the end of my lease my landlord decided to allow a zoning change in December, limiting my business...
