    Didn`t expect this...

    lol, if you have to have directions on how to start a std, well...lol
    Thanks Dodge but it would probably help more to remind them to take out of gear before releasing clutch after startup.








    Adapt/essence




    And that was on the lower vertical panels btw

    Upper areas are worse but harder to capture





    Same process as before


    Tools


    Adapt and essence for the win

    I`d say its at 92-95%

    This is the absolute last time I don`t call the client and advise it will cost $X more if he/she wants it done right. I`m purging labor time and products here.

    I am now behind schedule and have to hope it doesnt rain or something. I planned to have it coated by now.

    I need a nap. 12 hours in since i started to wash it and still not done correcting the whole car.

    This should have taken 12-15 total at my std pace. Panning out to be another 20+ hr new car detail.

    Warning!! Car may strike unintended objects if clutch is released while in gear.

    Is there a warning on the gas cap discouraging huffing and siphoning fuel?

    Hope you are able to get your correction done soon.

    Your work demands a premium price. I`m not sure what you are charging, but I would add 20% to it. You deserve it.

    Finally over, lol

    Zero outside pics

    Sad times

    BUT i got a $100 tip and he said he is going to try to "borrow" his dads viper to bring to me this winter

    And he said he would only bring it to me if i charged him double what i did for his car as he said "You`re running a business, not a charity..don`t forget that or people will take advantage of you"

    I liked that guy before, Really like him now

    He drove 92 miles one way to drop off a car with 2500 miles

    Ahh, the things we do
