Thanks to all who responded. I have indeed completely my transaction with Mike and am eagerly awaiting the gift certificate in the mail for my husband's car.

What a good forum you have here!

Thumbs up Follow Up To the Hubby's Christmas Gift

I wanted to post an update for you on the Christmas gift car detail, so here's the short version...

MIKE LUCA IS THE MAN!



Here's the longer version...

As you may know, I bought my husband Ed a gift certificate for a detail from Mike Luca from Sweating the Details, whom I found by coming here to ask for a recommendation.

Well, yesterday morning, Mike came to Ed's office condo to do the detail. Since I knew he would be there, and I was out running errands, I stopped by to meet him. For those who have never met Mike in person, he's super duper nice. And lemme just tell ya'll, don't be messin' with him either. Man, he is workin' out or SOMETHING!

But I digress...

Mike discovered that Ed's car (a Nissan X-Terra) was indeed as bad as I said it was (I gotta say I feel kinda bad about that, Mike)

Anyway, Ed said Mike was at his office for about five hours or so and although I haven't even laid eyes on the car yet, Ed can't stop raving about how amazed he is. In fact, he said it looks like Mike switched his car out for a new one! He went on and on about how clean the steering wheel is and how everything looks brand new! What cracked me up was when he said, "The ONLY thing Mike didn't do was repaint the words on all my dashboard buttons!" LOL...

So I wanted to post this publicly to say WAY TO GO MIKE and I can't wait to get you over to the house to detail my Acura soon! It was and will continue to be money well spent, and in fact, just this morning I referred you to a friend of mine so hopefully she'll be calling you too.

THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!

Monica aka Shoeless

That's great that Mike was able to do a fantastic job on your husbands X-Terra Monica. It took him over four months to redeem it though? Wow, no wonder Mike had more work to do!

Wow Monica...I don't even know what to say but thank you so very much for the kind words and the business. I truly appreciate both.

My details are my "signature"...something I take great pride in.

Hope to see you soon and thanks again!!

Mike

Ha! You are too modest! I'd fully trust you with my car.

Tandem detail? That sounds a little kinky...

Anyway, Mike, I just met a guy when I was at the gas station. He was washing his windshield with the ol' gas station dirty water squeegee thing and we got to talking for a minute. I told him about what a great job you did on Ed's truck and told him what I paid you. I got his card so I could email him your contact info and web site info, so hopefully he'll call you. (he has an Isuzu Rodeo and the outside looked pretty clean to me) I didn't get a gander at the inside. His name is James.

Rock on my detailing friend!

Monica
