Thumbs up Re: Just had car detailed - pictures!

Mike at PROMOBILEAUTODETAIL.COM did mine recently too.[IMG]http://i766.photobucket.com/albums/xx304/harrisonr8/P1010021.jpg[/IMG] My car looked just fine to me before he started.Just goes to show you what a layman I WAS. The results have been very satisfying. I can wholeheartedly recommend Mike. DESPARADO can also give a perfect satisfaction testimony as well!! as DESPARADO has the cleanest white R8 around.

Cool Re: Just had car detailed - pictures!

The 1500.00 dollar one.a TOTAL detail inside,under,outside,engine every nook and cranny.I was hard pressed to find any places Mike failed to enhance. I watched most of the process, and asked what I could do to help...But Mike just said--sit back and watch the MAESTRO with the experience and his exotic products. Even the water was DOUBLE filtrated. He spent a total of 16 hours in two days to finish. One of the wax coats (after first clay barring) was left to sit overnite. After removing this first wax it was my option to clay bar again. Just for that extra bling. So my package is called Paint Correction with Full Detail. I went for the GOLD, because I took this R8 to the Italiano Concourso 8-14-09. I knew I was going to have some TOUGH competition!! My R8 along with 3 others practically stole the show. (From a photographers viewpoint). I **** you not...There was a swarm of picture takers around the R8s(mostly mine ,thanks to Mike) . I didn't see any swarm of picture takers attacking any of the other Ferraris, Lambos etc. at this show. My head HAS grown a bit larger. And my girlfreind who went with me, still hasn't stopped talking/laughing about our accomplishment. I do most of the work on my cars myself. It was a recommendation from DESPARADO (Bill) that made me decide to even let Mike touch my car. I am a big baby when it comes to my baby. Mike made my car look BETTER than new, light lenses, tires,wheels and all. He certainly puts meaning into the word "SHOWTIME" And his array of tools is amazing. I asked if his equipment was new? NOT...He cleans his tools as if they were an ENZO. He even has a Microscope he hooks up to his laptop,the thickest magnifying glass I have seen(apart from maybe the HUBBEL TELESCOPE!), A special halogen light that is brighter than the sun too.He brought his own tarp/canopy, as he did the job in front of my house.I really don't think a better job could have been done.Thank-you Mike !!

Smile Re: Just had car detailed - pictures!

The girly pic was taken while I was busy with the party. You betcha' I wouldn't have allowed any of those pretty fingers to touch. BUT I actually told my G.F. to lightly lay one hand on the R8 and one on the 356. She is smarter than to have jewelry on when getting touchy-feely. I have trained her well.
