Today's free "details"

This couple also sees me for massages. Very nice couple so I gave them early Xmas presents.



Today I was suppose to vacume the trunk, that I somehow forgot to do on 10.23.04. Since they were on their way back from LA & I had some free time, I gave the cabriolet a wash and waxed it.

I used PwC and NXT 6 weeks ago.

Today the paint felt ok, but there was no beading what so ever so I put a coat of FK1 pink wax on it. Felt so smooth afterwards! :D

AA on rubber/plastic.

So after I was done with the VW, I decided to give the Lexus a much needed wash. The paint however still felt slick and smooth so I didn't do any waxing. I want to see how long this combo lasts. Both cars sit outside 24/7



I took these wet pictures about 5 minutes after the rinse. Still looking very good.

You're too kind!



My friend's dad is having me do a full exterior this coming Saturday on their van. I told him the price, and he started to yank my chain. Apparently I was his daughter's first boyfriend, so that must warrant a discount! :p



How 'bout some pics of your car. That wheel/tire setup is too :cool:
 
Thanks Scott! I will definately keep you guys updated.

PS: If I ever get to my car (I finally gave it a quick wash today) this is what I decided on using:

Rotary

ip

fp II

FK1 2180 (sealant)



pc

pink wax



:D :D :D

I have gotten 3 (4th is coming this tuesday) full details because of the husband, so I am just returning a favor.



I washed my car after these 2 "with the same sheepskin mitt" and noticed light swirls all over the car. Paint also looks very flat.



BUt quess what I had saved just for you? An older picture! :D

Dang wheel buldge! How do you fit that vac in your car? Been thinking of getting a small one but it ain't possible!
 
What's H3S3T?



What size tires are the fronts/rears? Really cool look.



BTW, how can I sneak a detail in as a Christmas gift for my parents if that's what I do every week anyway? I need some cash :(

Holly/Sam/Thomas - 33 suppose to stand for unconditional love. (new age kind of idea) Don't ask! Sam is the child and we protect him with that sort of love.



Explain your question please? (you need $ and want to sneak a detail in as a gift?)

It fits perfectly on the back seat, I just have to be careful with the ins and outs.

this is a pretty large one, just get a smaller one. Those are verypowerful too and take up less space.

First off, All Praise the Rock God! Zepplin is playing on the Radio!



Anyway:



Alot of members detail family/friends' cars as gifts. How can I con my parents into thinking a detail is a gift, if I live with them and do it every week anyway? :lol



And since I can't do that, I need cash to buy real gifts ;)
 


BTW - where is the money that you make detailing? [/B]




Um... er...



The dog ate it...?



It all goes to products. I really should have started investing by now, even if I can't do it in my own name (age legalities). As of the 1st of the year, I'll be depositing $50 a month (atleast, more if I have any extra cash I might be tempted to blow) into a fund. The typical thing I learned in marketing class is that with an 8% interest rate, I can be worth like 1.7 Million by the age of 37 with this if I start at 18 years old. I'm just getting a head start.;)

I have met Robert Plant once - very down to earth guy. I am also a big fan.



Do you listen to radio?



I listen to the radio when I get bored with my many gigs of music on my lap top. If I hear a song I like, I er, get it.



I've recently taken up alot of the older rock. AC/DC, Skynrd, Zepplin, some 'Tallica, Hendrix, Black Sabbeth, Deep Purple, etc...



Then there's the new stuff that I love. Skindred is incredible!
 
ok - do this.



go to your dad and tell him that you really want to get something nice for your mom because you really appreciate how much she loves you. But you don't have enough dough.



After you get the amount you want from him, tell your mom the same. There is your needed money.



I DIDN"T TELL YOU THIS!!!!!! You should not take my suggestion. It's not a nice way to get money! :D
