Detailing/scratch repair Largo/St Pete

PM sent. You still owe me a ride with my M3 sway bar btw!!

Did a test spot on my buddie's 03 Corolla. Apparently Toyota doesn't feel it's necessary to put a clearcoat on their cars. WTF!

Did a little ~8x8" section on the hood to make sure no paint would come off. The section I did looks like a mirror compared to the rest of the hood, you can see the reflection of the garage ceiling:

This is one of three cars I'm doing this weekend

Here we go. Car was in pretty good shape. Roof was overdue for clay as pictured below. Washed, clayed, Meg's 205 w/ LC white pad, Klasse AIO w/LC black pad, Klasse SG, followed by S100 carnuba wax.

Rub a dub dub:

Just the roof:

Hey I'm out of commission until August, I had neck surgery last week. I'll update this thread when I'm available.

Forgot to show off the Corolla.

Before shot, the whole car looked like this

Thanks man. How's the back holding up?

mbanks21 · 07-10-2014, 07:50 AM

Almost as good as JLo

mbanks21 · 08-13-2014, 12:35 PM

Alright guys, I'm going to start this up again but keep in mind this is a side job for me so I can only do maybe 3-4 cars a month. I'd prefer you drop the car off at my house (In Largo off 118/Belcher) but I can travel if you have water/electric/garage. Keep in mind most jobs take 6-8 hours. Right now I have Thursday the 21st available and the weekend of the 30th.

Pics from today's job. Coworkers 2007 FJ Crusier. Paint wasn't bad, had a few medium scratches and of course the window trim was crumbling apart. Fun.

Before:

Wheels were pretty gross:

Sccccccccccccccccccrath

No scratch

Sonax is amazing

Can I please have a quote? I live in St Pete and have a garage with power/water/beer. I have a E92 335i with swirl marks and a couple scratches. I might have a 535i that needs doing as well. Thanks,
Brent
