This car was really enjoyable to work on. The paint wasn't silly soft like some BMW's can be. It had it's fair share of buffer swirls, holograms, and my personal favorite, deeper circular scratches from some sort of contaminant, being drug all over the car by the dealership detailers. I was...

Here is another detail I did last week while vacationing/detailing in Cali. This is one of my favorite cars to work on for a few reasons. First and foremost, it's a great car. I'd work on it just to be able to start it and hear the V10 scream. Second, it's a pleasure to polish. Porsche...

This is the second time I have buffed this black Turbo out. It's been a couple years and unfortunately another detailer got his hands on it since last time. In addition to the normal wash marks it also had some holograms, deeper buffer swirls, RIDS, and some fairly deep straight line...

First a little background on the car. My GF bought this car about 4 months ago with 11k miles. We have since put another 9k on it with summer road trips. I went with her to get it and could see some serious wash marks and buffer swirls. It had just been "detailed" to go on the lot. Once we...

I originally posted this over on MOL but thought some here might also like it. Their is a link at the bottom to my follow up post for those interested. Well I finally got around to compounding my GF's new car today. Compound a new car you ask!?! Well yes! It's a 2008 Subaru Impreza. We...

Well, a few weeks ago I went out to wash my truck and noticed I had a fair amount of fresh tar on it. So I decided I should probably get that off.....next thing you know I spent all day on it! Guess that's how it goes sometimes. Anyway, here was my process and some after pics. No...

Hard to believe this is the first time I have taken pictures of my car after a detail. I bought it in 1999 and spent the next 4 years driving it daily. Around 2003-2004 I quit driving it in the winters. It's got just over 100k miles and all original paint. Anyway, on to the detail and the...

When I get home in a week or so I will try to get some pics. But for now words will have to do. I have an area on my car that neither my Makita or my PC can fit under. It's the rear hatch under a wing. I generally use ScratchX on it when I buff the car. The car has some pretty deep...

I have been wanting to use the new Meguiar's D151 Paint Reconditioning Creme and a couple days ago I had the perfect chance! It's an 08 Jeep Patriot that had minor to moderate swirls and some minor hollograms. It was a one step job and I usually would go right for the M66 on a car like this...

It's been a while since I posted a C&B. This is a one of my personal favorites and one that I have wanted to do for a long time so I figured I would share it! Just one before and no sun or defect removal shots as the color just washed out in the sun and defects couldn't be picked up by the...

This Vette' almost ended me. It was the most difficult paint I have ever worked on. It was really hard but also liked to mar up very easy. It had really deep rotary swirls and hollograms from the used car lot I assume. Here was my process: Gold Class wash with Chenille mit, Wheel Brightner...

This car has less than 400 miles and some light DISO. Sorry about the lack of before and during pics but I was on a tight schedule. Anyway, here are the limited afters I have: Looks mean from the front. Low and wide. Half the car is engine! Closeup of the rear quarter...
