Here are a couple of different cars that Anthony and I have worked on during the last week.
Not much heavy paint correction with them but the finished product really looked good. Lighting was not so great for the MB but you get the idea.
Correction was with the rotary and the cyclo as well.
cars were toped with Opti-Seal and the new QD witch really enhances the gloss and slickness of the Opti-Seal. They go great with each other like Peanut butter and Jelly.
Enjoy!

You lucky bastards There are like 3 Porsches in my whole city and you guys get them all the time.

I keep waiting you use this quote when you miss a spot, but I cannot find one. Exceptional work guys, very encouraging! Keep up the great work.

BTW: you forgot the pic where the fly trys to land on the paint, but instead slips on THAT SUPERSLICK FINISH and falls to the ground, hehe

My new OCW and QD are on the way (Thanks for the QD Ron!). I Can't wait to try them!!! So let me ask you this: how long after the initial OS application B4 you apply the QD and in the situation where I have one layer of OS and intend on adding a couple more (one after each of my next two washes), can I use the QD without interferrece.

TIA

He's just jacking with you guys!

I would recommend applying the QD 30 minuets after OS.
The OS is solvent based so you wont have any problems with another application after a QD and a wash a week later.

Dang, both look awesome! They look dripping wet! I can't wait to try the new products!

I don't believe it matters if your detailing Porsche's or minivans, just be the best at it.

I told my kids that if all they are going to do is flip burgers for their life then at least be the best at it!

I admit I would rather detail a garage queen but remember that even though I get a lot of nice cars to detail many of them treat their cars like trash cans so Ron and I get a lot of pigs even though they have a Porsche, BMW. MB or Ferrari emblem on them. We just don't take pictures of them all.

Oh, I know I'm just jealous. Minivans pay the bills and let me play!

Don't forget the A8 with the sticky center console buttons and that bag in the trunk.

Do these vehicles have the "secret" professional product you mentioned on Detailing Bliss?

[Charlies02GLS]

That OS/QD combo looks awesome on the silver.

What did you all use on the SL500's wheel well liner? It's got a nice clean matte finish to it.

Hey nice eye for the smaller details We used the Optimum Tire Shine applied via an air gun and compressor. For you pros out there you should listen to Ron and I on this and get an air compressor and gun to apply your dressing. It takes a time to get used to it but after a few cars I'm positive you'll prefer that method over the traditional spray bottle application.

Thanks for the kind words from everyone.

Great tip – thanks!
Time to get a air gun any suggestions?
