This customer came to me after having his civic freshly painted black, everything was done the right way, the car was completely stripped of everything including glass and seals so that no area was missed. He was then referred by his painter to a "detailer" in the same complex to perform a...

Ill start with the Mustang GT. This car is meticulously cared for, but unfortunately while sitting in a shop it somehow received a heavy dosing of contamination. I was called out to perform a test on a small portion, and was able to remove the contamination with a bit of work and sealed the deal...

This is one of my dream cars, the GT3 RS being my top dream car. ;) This car was very well kept and had all the options including the ceramic composite brakes. Nothing short of an amazing car! Unfortunately a rotary was put into the wrong hands and let loose on this unfortunate 911 Turbo! There...

Hey everyone, I may be coming out to California to detail several cars for a few clients but I am interested if there is anywhere that I should check out while I am in town. I am from FL and have never been to California, so I want to check out some places while I am there. I will be driving...

You may remember the detail article on this Benz that I recently completed. Presidential Detailed: 2006 Mercedes SL65 AMG - Tampa Racing Well, I was lucky enough to also detail its awesome twin! This car has every modification you can think of while staying tasteful! I was lucky enough to...

I was contacted about cleaning up a bike, the owner just picked it up a couple weeks ago and set up a detail to get the bike back in shape. It has its fair share or surface scratches/water etching/road grime from sitting/riding in the rain over the past few weeks. A quick swipe test on the...

This car is one of the nicest Mercedes that I have ever laid my eyes on, I was contacted for a full correction on both the owners SL65 AMG AND E55 AMG. I will post the E55 later tomorrow evening. When I first saw this car it was evening and even I was like, how can I make this look nicer?? haha...

The owner of the car intends to track this car, so we decided an all out correction would not be necessary. There was some swirling and a ton of buffer burn from a previous detail, most likely the dealership. To my surprise, I was able to remove 95% of the swirls with only SIP/Orange on a G110...

I am very excited to announce that I now have an on-site location with Proven Power Tampa! I have been in the market to find a place that suited me but didn't kill the wallet like a full stand-alone shop. I happened to run across a shop in Tampa called Proven Power and the Owners/staff and I...

Im sure your thinking what can you do to a brand new 2009 WHITE Mercedes with only 5k miles on it?? Well, believe it or not, there is still a big difference to be made! As well as needed a good clay bar session to remove the fallout, the owner confessed to running the car through an automatic...

This job was only a 1-step correction)basic) exterior detail, and with Nissans clear being relatively hard I was only able to get a small amount of correction even when using M105/yellow polishing foam using the KBPCM. Luckily this car was very well maintained, so it only added to the...

Due to time restraints and the severity of the paint issues on both of these cars I did not get a chance to document the details as well as I wanted, so Im posting them together. SR Performance sent me both of these cars once again, so I gotta give them thanks for sending me work! First up is a...

I finally got my perforated vinyls installed on my truck! It took me a while to decide on a design I wanted as I was trying to match the rest of my advertising media and I think it came out great! There are a couple very minor things I would change now that its on the truck, but I think it looks...

I had a slew of cars thrown at me over the last couple weeks from SR Performance. I do a lot of work for them once they are finished with the mechanical fix ups. This car in particular is their shop car theyve had for a few months now. This car has a GIANT single turbo setup with a built auto...

Hope this is the right place, I do a lot of work for a local shop here in tampa and I was called in to polish a set of exhaust pipes that came off a twin-turbo 350Z. He sold the exhaust to another member who owns a show car and wanted them polished before picking them up. I had no idea I would...

Like the title says I have a Lincoln Blackwood to do today, and I am a bit unsure of how I want to tackle the wood panels on the bed. Are they even real? Just wondering if I should polish them by machine or by hand? There are swirls in them as with the rest of the truck. Does anyone have any...

This car came to me for a full detail minus interior. When the owner arrived, he threw a curve ball at me. The entire car was repainted about a year ago, and the front hood and front fenders were just repainted 3 days ago! This is one of the first paint jobs Ive seen done right, the entire car...

I got a call this Thursday from Bobby, the owner of SR Performance saying he has a car he wants a black Cobra detailed before the weekend. the front bumper had just been repainted and didnt match the rest of the car now. I told him that since I would be starting Friday that I probably wouldnt be...

After a very fun weekend at Autogeeks Detail Fest, and a very informational class with Mike Phillips at the Meguiars training class it was time to get back to work on Monday morning. I had a beautiful black NSX waiting for me! I had just received my new G110 polisher earlier last week and was...

With all the Kevin Brown craziness/hype going on, I thought I would make a nice thread showcasing the results you can achieve using his method using a rotary which is slightly different from his method with the foam pads. I have been working with Kevin for the past couple weeks trying to perfect...
