I first did this car 2 years ago in preparation for a car show. Spent 4 days working the paint till it was flawless. The car tied for first place with 99.8 points at the show. Client called me up to give the car a freshening up for another show. It didn't need as much work this time as...

When I was contacted by the owner of this car, I knew it was gonna need some work. However when I saw the state it was in, I realized it was gonna need a lot more. After discussing options for reviving the paint on this Evo, the customer decided to only do the exterior, even though the inside...

This is one of my favorite AMG cars. This thing just sounds mean even with the factory exhaust. It was a pretty simple detail since this car is well cared for by the owner. Before pics actually look pretty good since it wasn't very dirty but I thought I'd include them. There was no beading...

Forum member PMed me about this and it sent shivers down my spine. I guess the dog jumped up on the hood and had a little party. So I came out and evaluated it. Took a lot of time and effort but it came out pretty good. There were several DEEP scratches that didn't come out, but overall the...

I've been hearing rumors that Sal sold Zaino to a larger company. Anyone else know about this?

This works for any wheels with clearcoat on them, which is 90% of wheels out there. Polished wheels tend to look dull after a while. Why? Well they have clear coat just like your paint, but most people never wax or seal them, so the clear oxidizes. And people use a wheel polish (designed for...

I recently did a detail trip to socal and took care of a few members down there from a GM performance message board. There was originally going to be more cars, but several people flaked, so I decided to turn it into a working vacation. Got to hang out with a friend and visit my ex (we're...

Well as per usual I'm pretty stacked up and behind on my photos, so I'm gonna group several cars in here to catch up. Its car show season still so things are still VERY busy for me with constant calls, PMs, and emails. So here are a few of the cars I've been working on. First off is a...

The owner of this beast contacted me back when he picked this up and we kept in contact about the car while it was in the body shop for the next several months. When it was all done and ready for wetsanding, it was dropped off to me for a few weeks. The process for this car was pretty...

Ok guys, I finally went through the 3900 pictures I've taken over the last 2 months (so not kidding) and sorted them out. Here's a pair of ZR1 that got some love. Both Z's got a wash, claybar, Zaino, interior cleaning, clean/condition all leather, and the black one got some paint correction as...

No, its not a blower or anything super cool like that, but this was a necessity for all my supplies/equipment. Its a ReTrax sliding toneau cover. Installed it in under 2 hours with a little help from my dad to lift it into the bed. I think it looks great. It locks in any position and slides...

Thanks to Resource Media, my website is up. Earlier this year I asked what I could do to improve my business this year and almost everyone said a website. So I got to work on it. I still need to add a few things to it (About me, Services, Current projects, and add more cars to the gallery)...

The owner of this Camaro contacted me after having his car repainted recently and requested a full wetsand and correction. He drove it up to the Bay Area (several hours) and left it with me for about two weeks while I did my thing to really bring out the potential of this car. When I saw it...

Its been a little while since I posted, things have been crazy busy with 70 hr weeks lately and I'm way behind on posting up pics, so this will be a brief one... This was a 2-step paint correction to fix severe swirls and holograms after having the roof and hood painted, along with some...

After a lot of hard work and a very busy schedule for quite a while now, it was finally time to upgrade my daily driver. Most of you know that I've been making my Honda Civic work for my daily and detail vehicle. It could fit pretty much everything, but it wasn't fun and I really did need more...

I've been absolutely swamped with work lately so this will be brief, but I had a couple vettes come in for me that the dealer wanted my special touch for so they rang me up. Not much to say, just did a wash/clay/Zaino x2 on each one, and the upgraded leather doors, dash, etc on the ZR1 was all...

This client came to me from a local message board. It had some pretty bad waterspots all over the car and a fair amount of swirls and the paint just didn't have much shine anymore. So I made the journey out there and spent the rest of the day and late into the night bringing beauty back to this...

This Trailblazer SS came to me from a local forum member and long time friend. This is his wife's daily driver which she also races at the dragstrip. Has intake, LT headers, Corsa exhaust and a 100 or 150 shot of nitrous (depending on what jets are in it at the moment). He wanted a 2 step...

This week's project, full wetsand and buff. More pics coming in about a week...

This customer has been doing business with me for a long time with numerous vehicles dating back over 5 years ago, so I set him up with a courtesy basic detail on the house as a thank you. He took the opportunity to upgrade to a 1 stage paint correction while I was at it. I got about 80%+...
