You can be in for quite a long conversation, if you start talking "shop" with a detailer.
If you get on the subject of polishes and abrasives, debating about SMAT, or talking about
vinyl trim and tire sidewalls.` This is part of the love that many of us have for the business.
It is that love that makes us strive to deliver and "autopian" level of service.
`
For many of us, this love for the business compels us to test and critique many
different products and application methods.` Is there a "best"?` Hardly, but you can find
what works best for YOU.` Many of us become loyal to a brand when we find one that
works for US.` I have one brand that is my hands-down favorite.` What is Yours?
`
I`m also curious WHY this brand is your favorite.` Is it because a specific product works
better than anything that you`ve seen?` Do you just like the smell that one leaves, or you
like the cutting ability of another?` Do you not have a specific product, yet a whole bunch
of products, and you use what you feel like on a random day?
`
My answer is short and simple.` Optimum Products.` I was first introduced to their
Polish and Compound products and they simply worked.` Then, I hear about this Optimum
No Rinse.` I did not know at that time, that this was the product that would change how I
view car detailing, forever.` This is the product that allows me to get certain services done
quicker than other vendors, hence a cheaper price point for me.
`
What stands apart the most, from the Optimum Line of Products, is its owner.` Sometimes, brands
are defined by their owner.` You can have a great product, but customer service and interaction
with the owner were very sub-par.` This is anything but the case with Optimum Products.` Not
only has their Polymer system changed the way that I view detailing, but I just love the
interaction with him.` He is one of the most helpful and kind men that I know of, on the phone.
`
I just think that the owner`s attitude is one of the least-discussed aspects of an effective product.
Sure his product performs better than any other that I have used, but you wouldn`t know it if
you talk to him.` For a man who has changed many lives, he is quite humble.

Many of you new people might be wondering what we are talking about when we say Autopian.
I mean, what do we have that is unique to other people.` The answer is NOTHING.` Some of us
might have more experience than others, but what sets Autopian Standards High is the consistent
level of excellence.` Most people have the drive to make something look perfect, or as close as
possible.` What most people do not have is the drive to attain that standard consistently with
every job taken.` It is that desire not to take shortcuts.` It is having faith in your products and
methods.` It is knowing that you are going to give the customer a good product and they will
be happy.`
`
How bad it must feel for some of the other people who do a lousy job.`
While they are working, it could be in the back of their mind that the customer isn`t going
to appreciate this.` They aren`t going to be satisfied with it, so he doesn`t put his heart into
the work.` It is Autopian Standards to put your heart into every vehicle.` Unfortunately, our
customer`s timeline and pocketbook do not allow us to do the cars to our satisfaction every time.
