Very nice, love that color. How do your clients maintain their vehicles? do you get them on a maintenance plan or do they go do their own thing?

I didn't expect to like that color as much as I do. Looks great on that car! :)


I'm just part time so I don't do any maintenance as of right now. I do provide them with a Word Doc that has articles, videos, and clickable links to product suggestions. I also offer them product at my cost and for this particular owner I actually just sent him some ONR, CarPro Reset, wash mit, and various towels free of charge...he's a very good client though. ;)

Awesome work as always Rasky! I have always had a thing for those old school Regals. Still beat myself up for not buying one a few years back.

That is an awesome idea. I have been wanting to come up with something to provide my clients with to help them understand how to keep their paint looking nice. I might have to steal some of your ideas, if you don't mind that is. :)

This is seriously some amazing quality work you're doing buddy. Very impressed. I was happy using the G21 with the Correcting Creme and microfiber discs. Looks like I'm going to have to play around with the yellow BOSS pads too.

Beautiful work! This thread is a big motivation for me, after not having detailed my truck in a long time. Sadly I hate to say much is the paint is beyond repair after parking lot damage and small hit and runs while I was home asleep. But I sure would like to get my truck as shiny as possible.

Great job Chad

May I ask what you use to get black tar off the rocker panels and lower panels behind the wheels? I've tried CarPro's bug and tar remover but didn't work very well.

Beautiful Chad !!!

I'll touch up any missed areas later with 3M adhesive remover.

Nice work on the A7. I had the pleasure of detailing an S7 and A7 about a year ago and the paint was hard as rocks. What did you use to polish it?

Thanks! Yes it is! I spot hit the RIDS with Fast Correct and Groit's MF pads followed by Correct Cream on yellow BOSS pads over the whole car.

I'm not typically a fan of green but loved the Mustang. Thanks for the under the hood shot.
