    Volvo S40 revisited

    I detailed this one in May of 07 along with their Accord and hadn't heard anything from them. I was worried that they weren't happy with the work even though they seemed ecstatic when I delivered the cars!! Well, when I picked the Volvo up, I found out why I hadn't heard anything....this car...

    '01 Yukon

    Got the call on this one and was told that there was a "smell" that they couldn't figure out where it was coming from. (that's always scary!!)

    Chevy Impala

    Got a call from a friend that wanted the, husband induced (LOL), water spots taken off the car. Upon inspecting that car, the spots weren't that bad.....but they were definetly noticeable. Plus a good polishing never hurts right? This was an exterior only detail so there won't be any inside...
