Simply breathtaking results to go along a breathtaking writeup!
I thoroughly enjoyed reading the detailed writeup and wouldn't mind if you wrote all of your C&B's like this. I definitely learned a lot from this thread on top of being amazed by your work.
I hope to one day do exotics, hehe.

Thanks Denzil. It seriously took like 3 hours to write this one up so I don't know if I will do another like it but I'm glad you enjoyed it. Its a lot of reading and probably overly redundant but thank you very much!

Thanks you lbcsublime. We charge based on an hourly rate so the charges depend soley on the amount of work done.

Very good work todd.
You have more patients in doing the write ups than I do. I have just started to take photo's again after nearly a year of not taking any. I booked marked your write up as an example.

Absolutely stunning work!
Great job on the detail, pictures and write-up!
It would probably take me more time to type all of that than it would have to detail the whole car
Nice work!!!

Amazing work as always Todd. I did a 430 last week that had that same Carbon Fiber rear valence, it looks awesome but it was definitely a challenge to get the scratches out. Excellent work.

Stunning work as usual.
What are your feelings on that prototype 4in pad? Can you say when it will be on the market?
Thanks

Re: 2008 Ferrari F430 in Rosso Corsa, presented by Bella Macchina
Thanks for talking so much time to write up your process. I very much enjoyed reading it and have bookmarked it for future reference. I have a few clients from my "day job" that own Ferrari's and I've always wondered if they simply don't care that the cars come less than perfect or just like in your case have a person they trust to make it 100% perfect.
Amazing work, it's got me interested in trying Zaino product. FWIW I love my 4" edge pads it makes life so easy when getting in those little spots.

Re: 2008 Ferrari F430 in Rosso Corsa, presented by Bella Macchina
I find it amazing that a small business owner who does work of this caliber is willing to share his secrets/pointers/tips with people that could, possibly, become a competitor of his someday. It just goes to show the quality of the people on this forum! Allow me to reiterate what's been said time and time again, thank you for a fantastic post!
