The red stain below is from a Honda I detailed a few weeks ago. The stain is 2 years old and I thought I would have no luck in removing it at first. Here is a BEFORE

I have no BEFORE pics of this Porsche as it was so overcast and cloudy yesterday that none of the swirls and scratches showed up in the pics I did take:( I do though have one BEFORE pic of the rear exhaust area and pipe and you can see where the exhaust hazed the paint making it cloudy and...

This was one sad Porsche, lots of scratches (minor) and just all around beat up. Tons of paint chips that made the front end look like it was sandblasted. I took some BEFORE pics but it was so cloudy and overcast yesterday that none of the scratches showed up. I did though take a BEFORE pic...

Did a interior detail on a black Honda (I already posted the exterior pics) which was pretty nasty with spilled coffee and gunk in general. The passenger side had the worst of it as the red stain is 2 year old Gatorade and then we also had some coffee mixed in on the sides. I first tackled the...

This is THE worst case of overspray I have ever seen or ever had the pleasure of detailing. I have yet to complete the detail so don't expect any AFTER pictures just yet but I do have several BEFORE pictures and they are SCARY:wait This client went on vacation and left their car parked at the...

I have heard through the detailing grapevine that California is really cracking down on chemicals and their distributors. Companies that you order from are being fined and threatened with lawsuits if they continue to ship certain chemicals and products into California. It seems that detailers...

Had several washes and 2 details today and on the black ML, which was in some sad shape, I teamed up with Ron, a new member here at DC and also a newb to San Antonio. He did some PDR work on the ML and also used the Cyclo to polish out one side of the ML. Got all the dings out.....Ron does some...

After reading the post by Clean Dean on hand detailing I felt prompted to post up some pictures of this detail I did on a dark blue Honda even though I don't have all the AFTER pics yet. My battery died after the second picture:angry I'll have the rest of the AFTERS next week. Now I have done...

As many of you know my dad passed away this past Wednesday and I wish to thank Poorboy (Steve) and the many other fine overly anal detailers on this fine forum who have sent me and my family their well wishes, love and prayers:) It really warmed my moms heart to know that people she had never...

Hello and greetings to all of my detailing friends, both pro and amateur alike. I have not been posting lately on the boards to much as my father is ill and dying. I am not writing this as a pity party but to just let you all know that I may not post up any pictures for a few days and I may...

Had the pleasure of detailing this beautiful 911 this afternoon, listened to some jazz and had plenty of water to drink as it was a scorcher:scared Started with the motor area. I wet the surrounding paint work down with water and then sprayed Hi-Temps Xtreme Clean APC over the engine and let...

Had rain here for days and days so I knew yesterday and today, first sunny days in over a week, would be busy. Did several details and lots of washes. Here are a few of them. First up is a wash and vacuum on a silver SL500

Did this XJR over the weekend for a client who traded the car in today for something new. Since he was getting rid of it he wanted me to just tune it up a bit (his ex-wife has had the car the last several months and ran it through car washes) so I took it home and it gave me a chance to mess...

Client is trading in this XJR tomorrow and he asked me to "tune it up" for him. His ex-wife had it for weeks prior and it showed:( I don't have any full AFTER pics but I do have some JUST prior to final waxing pics. I also only have AFTER shots of the interior. The interior was not horrible...
