    Anyone Can Professionally Detail Their Own Car





    Gary Kouba of Perfect Auto Finish, outside Chicago, has just released a

    DVD in which he demonstrates the auto detailing techniques he uses and

    which have given him legendary status among car enthusiasts. Kouba`s

    new DVD is appropriately titled, "Keep Your Car Looking New For Pennies

    A Day."



    Kouba has conducted over 200 car care clinics for car clubs, schools,

    libraries, community groups and other organizations in the Chicago

    area. He generously shares his experience through local newspapers and

    professional trade journals. He moderates multiple internet car care

    forums and is widely known as the "go to" guy for car detailing

    questions. He has detailed cars for Oprah Winfrey and Paul McCartney,

    as well as exotic car collectors and ordinary folks who love their cars

    and want them to look their best.



    "It isn`t that complicated," Kouba says. "By following some basic

    steps and using the right car care products correctly, anyone can

    detail a car like a professional, save hundreds of dollars, and have

    fun doing it." It really doesn`t take that much time either, he

    adds.



    Many people learned to take care of their car`s finish by washing it on

    the weekend, drying it with a fluffy terry bath towel, and perhaps

    laboriously applying a coat of wax.



    "Unfortunately, this isn`t the best practice with today`s dual-stage

    paint systems," Kouba explains. In fact, that terry towel may be

    contributing to swirl marks and micro-scratches in the paint, and the

    wax will only last a month at best. And if you don`t remove the

    contaminants and micro-particles on the paint before washing it, you

    just may be

    grinding them into the clear coat, actually damaging the paint. In the

    old days, owners would apply rubbing compound, a practice that Kouba

    warns the novice to relegate to the history books.



    In Kouba`s new DVD he explains the proper steps to obtaining a

    beautiful, deep

    finish. He demonstrates using a clay bar before washing, a technique

    that many people have never heard of but one that safely removes tiny

    particles from the paint before washing so that they do not grind into

    the paint during the wash process. Kouba`s DVD takes the viewer through

    claying, washing, polishing and sealing the paint. He then

    demonstrates his techniques for cleaning and protecting the interior,

    including door panels, dash, gauges, carpet and seats.



    Kouba also shares valuable advice about avoiding excessive services

    that dealers try to sell to new car buyers, such as "special` paint

    sealants costing up to $1,100, which knowledgeable owners can apply

    themselves for less than $5.00.



    Many people are confused and overwhelmed by the car wash, wax, sealant

    and detail products available today. Kouba cuts through the confusion

    and explains which products to buy and which to avoid. "By following my

    simple steps you can have a car that always looks new," says Kouba,

    adding that "you`ll save a lot of money, have fun, and be proud to say

    that you did it yourself."

    When it comes to promoting the merits of detailing, you are a one man consumer awareness campaign.
