    00' Bowling Green Corvette in from Vegas!

    This was our first official out of state detail. Though he wasn't in town just to see us, his friend (who actually was the first person to drive over 100 miles for us to detail his Z06) had bragged about us so much that, he figured while he was in town from Vegas, he'd have to have us polish out...

    08' Jet Black 335i BMW - The Anti-Christ of paint

    Ever since we started detailing I've heard 2 things..Corvettes have ROCK hard paint...and Jet Black BMW's are the most difficult to finish down. You can always cut harder with rock hard clears...but finishing down soft paint...thats a specialty all of its own. We got a call to do this car...

    See, told ya so. This was actually a cold call from a guy who owns a small used car dealership a couple miles from where we live. He LOVES his truck...loves it. And I will say it was very very clean. He is one of those, wipe it down every day before and after work kind of people. He wanted...

    48 Hour Restoration - Black 2007 Escalade - Correction & Opti-Coat

    I'd first like to say, this was probably our biggest turn around so far...and not just due to size. We both took a lot of time to do this baby, and additional time went into taking the pics and making the write-up, so, if you have the time...take a minute to read through and not just scan it...

    06' Boxster Vs. Windows & Wheels w/Rupes!

    We got a call the other day from the owner of an 06' Porsche Boxster, saying he needed a detail before the weekend. With a little schedule re-arranging we were able to fit him in today (Friday). He said the swirls on his hood were pretty bad and the rest of the car, though clean and well...

    So usually when a guy with an FR-S contacts us lately, he wants HIS ride done...well...not in this case! I was contacted this time about us doing his girlfriends Charger...a purple one he told me. My sister Dani lit up right away when she heard that. As usual we set up a time to bid it so we...

    Raven Black FRS - Correction and Opti-Coat Pro

    Well this is a first for me, I'm doing a write up on a car we just finished yesterday. I'm trying to stay on top of these things more! A few weeks back we had done a different FRS, this one was Asphalt Grey - and in very bad shape. Only a few months old but hammered already from the local...

    Asphalt Grey FR-S - Dealership Holograms/Swirls removed & Opti-Coated

    A few weeks back i received an email from a fellow detailer, Greg at Reflections Detailing out of Utah, saying that the owner of an FR-S, who belonged to the same forum as he did, had made a post complaining about the holograms/buffer trails and swirls left on his brand new FR-S. Apparently the...

    A couple of weeks ago I received an email from a client saying he had a black Z06 and that it looked like the previous owner had run it through the tunnel of death! Lots of swirls and paint defects and he was ready to get it detailed ASAP. We set a date for the following Monday for him to drop...

    As the title reads, It all started with a scratch... A bit of background on how this detail came about. We had done a polish out on a beefed up Camaro SS (aka Blue Monster) that had been over sprayed at one of our bigger Chevy dealerships in Az. The owner worked in the...

    This car was Satan...07' Black, tinted clear, Lexus LS 430 correction...wow

    I'm finally getting around to doing this write up. I think the reason it has taken me so long is because I wanted to not think about this evil car for a while! Why? Well...this was done in mid-summer in Arizona...think 110+ degrees. The car was black. The car was dealership-afied on more than a...

    This was by far one of the most interesting details we ever came across.
