    Why so many hours?

    I read a lot of write ups that give discriptions of what was done and how it took 20-50 hours on the paint. Why? If you’re working on factory paint with car wash damage and swirl marks, what in the world takes so long? If you’re polishing on paint that long, you’re either using the wrong...

    Zero bucket wash after several months

    This is my car after several months of no foam and the zero bucket wash method. No more wasting time foaming with special soaps, and no dragging around buckets. As you can see, no micro marring with weekly washes. Thank you for looking! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Ferrari 360, one step and coated at the same time

    Long time client wanted this recent purchase cleaned up. Not extremely bad but the typical used car dealership issues. Perfect for the new Dr Beasley Z1. After the usual zero bucket wash and decon, we used the Rupes 15 with a yellow Rupes pad and the Z1. Not chasing perfection as it had been...

    Meguiars M27 my initial thoughts

    Had the opportunity to receive M27 last week. After an issue at the dealership I won’t go into, I needed to polish my car. So a polishing with Griot’s perfecting cream on a Rupes yellow pad, then wipe down with alcohol got it ready. Used the G9 and a black finishing pad on the large panels and...

    New products, Aenso

    Received these samples today while at a benefit car show in Virginia. This is the new line of retail care products from Modesta. Designed, tested and packaged by Modesta. NOT re labeled! The minimal use I’ve had with these two, I have been pleased. Can’t wait to try the entire line up, should be...

    2018 Toyota Tundra, one pad one product.

    New client who only had 800 miles on this truck. Wanted it protected by the best. Fortunately only minor carwash scratches and one factory sand mark, which as usual the dealership couldn’t fix. Using the G9 on speed 5, a microfiber 5 inch pad and Griot’s perfecting cream took care of everything...

    Tesla re do with Modesta

    Long time client who had this coated when he first purchased it. Had the misfortune of having someone back into it! Front bumper needed replacement and it was painted off the car, however the body shop for some reason felt it necessary to buff a few sections with a wool pad which obviously has...

    My opinion of the G9

    I have had the opportunity to use this machine on 3 different cars. A Cadillac Escalade, a 360 Ferrari and a Toyota Sienna. All different paints and all types of damage. Ranging from minor car wash damage to parking lot scuffs. All done using the 5 inch backing plate. I will tell you this...

    New Tesla, do I need to say more?

    New client referred by another Tesla owner. As usual the dealership or whatever they call it treated him wonderfully! As you can see , they buffed the car with a rotary and wool pad, but somehow missed the 6 factory sand marks! We corrected with the 21 using a microfiber pad and correction...

    New client who wanted Modesta only after talking to other brands. Fortunately not touched by dealership and very few defects which were minor. Just marks from being wiped off.

    Wife’s new Tiguan, untouched by dealership, thank you!

    We just purchased this last week in stone blue metallic. An interesting color as it looks anything from grey to blueish to greenish. Thankfully it was just off the truck and not touched other than removing the cover from the factory. Got to do all the fun stuff this weekend. A few water spots on...

    I know it’s 20 years old but I bought a nice one!

    Client referred this car and the owner wanted Modesta. I got a brief look at it a month ago outside and I really didn’t think it was that bad! Stupid me! After my dent guy spent 2 hours on it, we saw what it was really like. We did find repairs to the right rear fender at 29 mils! And the right...
