Hello from a young enthusiast from Las Vegas, Nevada

Hello everyone,

I've been a member here for a few years, but I don't know that I ever made an introduction. My name is Bradley from Las Vegas, Nevada. I work at Lamborghini Las Vegas in sales and am coming up on my 20th birthday, but more importantly I have been enjoying car detailing for the past 4 years. Being a Huge auto enthusiast, I realized in the early months of owning a beautiful car that taking top notch care of my auto would become a hobby and not just a chore as it (unfortunately) is for most people.



Little backstory...I started with a stunning new '07 MINI Cooper S I acquired as a first car. My upbringing taught me to take very good care of my possessions, and I soon realized when it comes to my car, a simple buggy bath was not cutting it. Dirt in those little crevices... Brake dust in the wheel barrels... Yuck. I started losing sleep! I took to the Forums and started learning all I could, from products to application. Every weekend my car gets pampered whether it needs it or not, even if my friends/girl think I am nuts. ;)

Loved that car, but after some years I moved onto an Audi B7 A4 Avant tuned completely by STaSIS Motorsports.

A month and a half ago I traded my Avant (after just 5 months of ownership) for my B7 S4 (painted in rare Lava Grey). This car is unbelievably clean. Not a single swirl or RID anywhere to be seen. Just a claybar was all it needed to take this beauty to my (still novice) standard. I don't have any pictures of it yet thanks to my schedule. :/



Thanks to everyone's contributions to this forum I have learned tons so far! My next tackle is learning the best technique in dealing with Audi S4 Platinum leather.. This color attract every ounce of dirt! I love the challenge. ;)



Cheers
 
Wow! That was some nice, clean cars. You have good taste and a great attention to detail, welcome and please post more often!
 
Thanks for the intro! You have great taste in cars. I had a Mini and am an Audi lover, too. My past Audi's have all had the platinum interiors. My current 5 year old S4 is flawless inside. My personal choice of leather maintenance and protection has been Zaino Leather Care and Leather Cleaner. Cleans great. Is super easy to use. Smells wonderful.



Good luck!
 
^Thank you both for the kind words! I just bought the cleaner and rejuvenator products from Leatherique, I heard from another S4 owner that this is what he uses with great success on his platinum interior. Also, my family just picked up another sweet addition to the stable, a low mileage Jet Black 2001 Z3 3.0, 5 speed manual. I've been driving it all weekend, I've loved this car since I was 6 years old. :D



Cheers
