Couldn't get any better pics...it started raining shortly after I got it completely cleaned...****** weather...but here is my new toy, I love it!!!!! As for the detailing, I used 3M SMR to remove some of the heavy swirling that was on the top panels of the car. Then used Vanilla Moose on...

Went and bought The Texas Chainsaw Massacre DVD today and decided to stop by Johnny Appleseed Park to get some pics of my car. Here's a few of the better ones I got.

Finally! The weather has warmed up in Indiana, although it's done nothing but rain for the past 7 days, and there's no end in sight. But, it did warm up and stay rain free for the majority of the day today. Long enough for me to wash the car, and try out Meguiars NXT. Basically, I just...

I ventured out today because it was FINALLY a nice day here in Indiana. Went to Walmart to pick up a movie and naturally wandered over to the car care aisle to see what kind of new stuff they have and to pick up some Invisible Glass. Got to the aisle and noticed a whole bunch of new stuff...

Any pro detailers deal with fleets? There is a main Verizon building no more than 2 minutes from where the shop is. Owner is in talks with the fleet company about getting their vehicles (200+ cars). I believe at this point it will just be for washing the outside. But how can you price out...

I have been left to come up with a logo for the new business. Basically the main part of the logo has to be there, in the color chosen, thats what the owner wants, thats what I have to work with. Basically I have to design around that. The main part is a red circle, inside the circle is an...

Well, I was contacted by a guy looking to open a detail shop about 2 months ago. Well, I met with him this morning where the detail shop will be located, he wanted me to check out the facility and location. Location is PRIME, the latest stats for this intersection that it's located at was...

I'm going to be ordering at least 2 rotary buffers this month, but would like some recommendations for some GOOD, reliable, durable pneumatic rotary machines. I've done some homework on my electric rotaries, but can't seem to find much info on good pneumatic buffers. Price isn't a huge...

I've been offered a job by a NEW detailing shop that will be opening in town here. I guess a couple of people I have detailed for in the past know the guy and said that he should get ahold of me. From what I've gathered so far he's going to have 3 guys doing the washing and vacuuming type...

Detailed a 96 Ford Explorer last weekend. Tar EVERYWHERE on this poor truck. Inside was as bad as the outside, but I didn't get any pics of the inside. This truck has 135,000 miles on it and the owner bought it new and informed me that it has been washed ONCE in it's entire life. Here's...

I was wondering if any of you gave any kind of discount if a place brought you a group of cars. I have a local business (concrete company) that has 6 vehicles that they want fully detailed (inside and out). And was wondering if you would give any kind of a discount for them bringing you that...

Well, one of the letters had started falling off the rear where it said "Aurora", so I decided to just yank them all off. Then went to the front and took off the Oldsmobile logo, came out good, went easy. Here's some pics... Glamour shot: :up

Went to the ACD festival this past weekend...one of, if not THE largest car show/auction in the world. Very rare, very expensive, very cool cars everywhere!

Had a nice Vette to detail today. Everything went smooth and the owner is VERY happy with it. He will be attending a show with a bunch of Vettes next weekend and wanted it to shine. Washed with Megs Gold Class, SEPC, S100. Didn't dress the tires per customer request. He doesn't like...

I haven't been getting around to detailing my own vehicle since winter ended. And finally took some time this past weekend and did the exterior and interior. Washed with Meguiars Gold Class, used SEPC for the first time and topped with S100. Inside I just wiped down with a damp MF, and...

Just finished taking some pics of an GMC Envoy I have been detailing today, I have the whole weekend to accomplish it so I'm just taking my time on it now. So far I have the exterior cleaned. Washed with Meguiars Gold Class, then used the Mother's Clay Bar, and topped it off with VM. Cleaned...

I have a show to go to next weekend, just a "local" show, more for people to get out and enjoy the weather. I've been prepping the car this weekend, and will probably do some touch up work next friday, till then the car will hibernate in the garage. Just thought I would share a few pics...

About a week ago I get ready to run to the gas station to pick up a few odds n' ends only to discover that the car won't start.:mad: Not a problem, I'll just run to the auto store (Hire's) and pick up a battery. Problem is, is the battery is under the back seat! So I take the back seat...

I have been invited/asked to go/enter into a local car show here. But I have encountered a problem. I went to the auto store this morning to find that the center cap on my front passenger side rim fell off. I am imagining that this will greatly effect any kind of outcome I will have in a...

As most are well aware of, I've been having problems with S100, so decided to start over. I put on some VM today and it left it perfectly slick. I know VM has a wax in it, but is there enough to protect the car for a decent amount of time without topping it with a pure carnauba?
