For the past couple months, I've been playing around with the new line of "Premium Custom Detailing" products, engineered under the direction of Garry Dean. Thus far the test vehicles I've had haven't been great for showing off the results. Well today, I got the chance to do a detail with...

I'm hoping I'm not the only one who has noticed this issue: The forum sidebar on the right side of the page (with the 3D Training Academy link, Ads, Featured Products, etc.) used to automatically "remember" that I wanted it collapsed when loading new pages. As of a week or so ago (seemed to...

Lug Bolt Guide Tools, Wheel Hanger, Stud Alignment Tool, Wheel Bolt Alignment Tool Since I seem to be getting more and more Euro cars lately that all have hub-centric wheels with bolts instead of studs, I've been discovering what a royal pain it can sometimes be to get the wheels installed...

Assuming the weather holds, I should be at NAIAS in Detroit on January 15th. Anyone else planning to be there/want to meet up at the show? We can all count the swirls..... :tape:

Since I'm not sure whether the source through which I obtained this wants to be named, he will remain nameless for now. I recently managed to get my hands on a gallon jug of the Europe and Asia market only M101 Foam Cut Compound, and thought I'd share a few pics of the product...

The owner of this 2005 BMW M3 Convertible contacted me a couple weeks back about getting it detailed before it goes into winter hibernation. Unfortunately he does not have a garage, so the car lives outside 24x7 and as a business owner, he has little time to do a lot of maintenance. Since this...

So earlier today information about GM's latest and greatest muscle car, the Camaro ZL1, was released to the public. Camaro ZL1 Dealer Reference Guide (PDF with full specs/options) - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums - Camaro5.com In the reference guide are a number...

This 2008 Toyota Camry was brought to me by a neighbor after one of his "buddies" did some collision repair work on a couple panels. The person who painted it did an absolutely terrible job of prep before he painted, and to make matters worse, the paint job was done outdoors with no protection...

So I'm browsing around over at ADS, and to my surprise I see another new Microfiber pad, which looks curiously similar to the ones David was recently sent by Dr. G. These ones are called "MicroShine" polishing pads, and they note that a cutting pad version will be "coming soon" as well. Anyone...

(Borrowed Garry's pic) I went out to the mailbox today to discover that I'd received my Cord Control Clip from Garry Dean. Perfect timing, too, as I was just getting started doing some polishing on a Mustang in the shop. Following an afternoon with a clip on my shoulder (not to be confused...

This show took place back on 6/19/2011, but I just now got around to resizing and uploading the pics. you can view all of them on my server (link below) but here are a few standouts: Index of /pictures/Olds_Show Had the owner been around, I'd have said something....

When I first encountered this 1999 (996) Porsche 911 Carrera Cabriolet, it was in storage at a climate controlled facility where I was working on a 7-series BMW (E38) with a friend. This car's owner came by to pick it up and due to a dead battery he was unable to get it started. While we were...

A few months ago I was contacted by a member on another forum via a referral from David Fermani (Thanks David!) to perform some paint correction on his daily driver Acura RSX. At the time, the car was in need of some paint work where a previous repair had started to delaminate. With the repairs...

This 1956 Chevrolet Corvette is owned by a gentleman who lives near my aunt and uncle in Grand Rapids, Michigan. While I do not typically do mobile detail work, my uncle offered to open their garage for my use on this special project and I simply couldn't pass up the opportunity. As with any...
