Thank you Doug. I'd like to say, I wouldn't be able to do it without the internet. Over the past year I've discovered a few groups of dedicated high-level detailers that share the same passion as I. Those groups have been a cornucopia of knowledge for me... which in turn has increased my skill set tenfold.

It was the first thing I saw when I walked it. Almost dropped my buffer!

 

[fatherdoug]

Almost dropped your what?

 

[Austin]

My college savings.

 

[fatherdoug]

Going to college? I used to think college was a necessary diversion in life. After 32 years of not using a whole lot of what I learned in college, I would have rather taken an 18 month certificate in a trade and made some money!

Good old Hindsight!

I honestly never saw myself going to a traditional four year school. And there's not really a trade school for my line of work (weird, right?). I've always considered a few classes at the local tech school during nights or weekends.

I thought about enrolling during my last slow spell but things picked back up again.

 

[Sparky83]

other reason i did was so i could learn something i was interested in... little did i know i had an actual natural talent at it...

That's my water based tire shine. Diluted at 5:1 instead of 1:1. It's nice to have something water based so I can adjust sheen on the fly.

I wanna try that on my truck tires next year for Rantoul just to see how it looks with the shiny white and flat black. .....

Wrapped up the TT-RS today, and boy am I glad that's over!

Before and after swirl removal. This is vital for exceptional gloss.



Coating curing on the paint.













Wheel faces treated to the same ceramic coating for protection.



Taillights polished.

i still say you need to come do my truck...

 

[BIGRED911]

Look what's back to life!

I hope I didn't scare him with my pricing. I'd love to take on that truck.
