    Presidential Detailed: 2007 Honda Civic SI

    This car came to me in pretty good shape already, but the customer wanted it perfect! I switched up my normal routine of SIP/White, which Ive always had great success with on this particular type of car and I went with M105/Yellow Megs Polishing Pad using the KB method. This process was much...

    Presidential Detailed: 2008 Corvette Z06

    Well, I had a great thread planned out for this detail since I learned so much in the process of this detail but I loaded all of my process/before pictures onto my pc to make room for more pictures and my PC crashed and I lost EVERYTHING. Lucky I still had the second half of the pictures on my...

    Presidential Detailed: 2001 Audi S8 - 25 hours invested.

    I spent 3 FULL days straight getting this car back into shape. The owner of this car also owns the AC COBRA I detailed, and we went for the full "Presidential" Package on this one! The car wasnt in that bad of condition, it just needed to be polished and touched up in a few areas. There were...

    Presidential Detailed: 2004 Honda S2000 BRAKE DUST NIGHTMARE!!

    This car sees extensive track time, and unfortunately had a bad set of brake pads. The brake pads dusted insanely and instantly attached to anything and EVERYTHING!

    Presidential Detailed: 2001 Honda S2000-Not 56k FRIENDLY!!

    This car was also part of the 4 car job I had in Palm Bay, FL. This one was not near as bad as the red S2K I just posted recently, however it still needed a lot of attention! This car also just returned from a day of Auto-x'ing and was very dirty to begin with. It also had some very bad hard...

    Presidential Detailed: 2005 Lotus Elise TURBO!!

    This car also belonged to the owner of the red S2K I just posted. This car is absolutely INCREDIBLE! The owner said it should be pushing somewhere near 350whp and this car is super lightweight! This car is tracked/auto-x'd quite often and actually just got back from one just before I detailed it...

    Presidential Detailed: 2000 Honda S2000- PAINT RESTORATION

    This car was part of a multi-car job I went across the state for. The car was bought as a toy and sits outside most of the time in the harsh florida elements. Well the Florida sun has taken its toll on this poor S2k. The owner is looking to sell the car for pretty cheap and wanted me to clean it...

    Presidential Detailed: 2004 AC COBRA 427ci

    This car was brought to me by S&R Performance here in Tampa, FL. In the end we decided upon a "basic" exterior, 1-stage polish just bring back the luster but not really remove any defect beyond what my polish would do. We also did an interior detail, which I forgot to take afters of :mad: and we...

    Presidential Detailed: 2002 Honda S2000 aka Black Nightmare!

    This car had to be one of my worst enemies! I could not get a hologram free finish on the soft Honda Black paint for anything! I eventually gave up, let the owner take the car home and ordered some new "better" products to try and tackle it again. I started this car the middle of last month and...

    Presidential Detailed: 2003 SUPERCHARGED G35

    This is a return customer of mine, I detailed his white EVO a few months back and now hes got a new daily! This car looks very nice rolling down the road! I was surprised to find out how hard the clear was on this thing, it took two passes with M105/PfW at speed to even begin cutting. I ended up...

    I must say I was a bit nervous once I saw this thing coming down my street! I had never detailed anything of this size EVER! And it was my second truck since Ive started. I just had to come up with a game plan and go at it section by section, including climbing on top of the 37" tires and...

    Wax Streaking Problems..

    Ok, so on the last couple black cars I have done, after waxing I have noticed its leaving some kind of residue or something behind and streaking. It almost looks like swirls or hologramming. I know for a fact it is not either though as I can sort of move it around with a microfiber but the...

    After detailing Tim's RX-8, he brought me his mothers Chevy Avalanche. Not only was it in for a full exterior detail, I also had to remove the nearly disintegrated pin striping from the truck.

    This customer had seen some of my work online and looked me up. He just purchased the car and said it had only been washed twice since he'd gotten it!

    This customer had spoken to me about 4 or 5 months ago when he just picked up the car. I met up with him to look at the car and it was in bad shape from the start, and I mean BAD. Haha!

    Got another tricky one! HELLPPP!

    Ok, I am working on a BLACK Honda S2000. It was in rough shape when I got it, hit it with SIP/White and SIP/Orange on the hood/trunk. Car looks great, of course minus some hologramming. So I get all the way through my detail, mind you I cautiously looked at it with halogens with every...
