Background:
A couple weeks ago, we received a phone call from one of our customers informing us that a brand new 2014 BMW M6 was on its way to his driveway. First, my customer inquired about what he should do to the car at the dealership, the answer was short and simple,
“Don't allow them to touch the car!”
During our two week communication period we exchanged ideas of what should we do to his new car, as we progressed deeper and deeper into our conversations we both agreed that a car of this caliber should be protected a little differently than the conventional way........ So we came to the conclusion that some type of coating should be applied......
If we go back to 2012, I started a thread out of curiosity about the so called “Coatings” The thread's name is Coating Frenzy and the link is below.

We don’t manufacture any type of vehicle coatings yet; the primary reason is that we have found out that past formulas had turned yellow and some have even cracked on the vehicle's surface, and this could be a huge liability issue. There's no denying that some companies have pioneered this revolutionary idea and have very successful programs and products, others are closing the gap very fast and others are nothing more than marketing hype, leaving the average consumer confused and making the true credibility of good coating products a tough battle.
As times are changing so is the product technology (Coatings) I began to learn more and more about this new technology so that at least I was up with the times, my curiosity was so much that I tested a few well known brands but unfortunately for me, I was disappointed with the ones that I tested, the lack of shine, lack of durability, the complexity of the application and removal process were the primary reasons that I was disappointed with this great technology.
Trying to look outside the box, I reached out to my good friend Robert DiTerlizzi, he owns and operates a detailing business by the name of Impressions Fine Automotive Detailing. After consulting with him about my customer needs he suggested a particular coating that he has been using, after reviewing some of the end results of this particular product, I felt that this coating was completely different from the others that I had tested. I decided to partner with Robert so that together with our Turbo Wax Products and his suggested coating we could deliver some astonishing results for my customer.
Process:
We started the job with the vehicle placement and evaluation,My customer went as far as taking all the exterior and interior protective plastic out himself! To avoid any mishaps. Besides a few light marks here and there the car was in very good shape for the most part, the odometer has recorded 150 miles.
