A Miracle Detailing
I'm fairly new to detailing I've only been doing this for a few years now. I got into this be accident. I purchased a vehicle that is painted black (the top half anyway).
Upon taking it to work to proudly show it off I parked in the inside parking lot. When the folks came out to see it in the overhead lights they commented on how the black paint looked like it was covered in spider webs. Yepper, it was covered in swirls so bad it looked like an army of spiders made webs all over the black paint.
I tried finding a local "detailer" to polish it and was unable to find anyone that even had a clue. I found lots of "wash and wax" folks but none of them new how to polish paint. So I started doing research on buffers, pads, products etc. and started learning and practicing. I will admit the first vehicle I did was my wife's car. Hey, I'm not going to learn on MY paint!
Well after a couple of years of practicing and improving my skills I've become a pretty good weekend warrior. I usually wind up with one vehicle to do at least each weekend. I enjoy doing it and I take pride in doing the best I can when I polish paint. So far everyone I've done tells me at least a WOW before I've even applied a sealant/wax.
Anyway, I'm glad to be here. I'm always happy to learn more and share what I have learned.
