Found: Good Detailer in S.Fl...

I can recommend Luis wholeheartedly, and FWIW he's the only person I ever let touch any of my vehicles with a machine. Here is a link to some of his other cars, and my Interlagos Blue in the middle

(PM me if you want his phone number and details)

how much did he charge you, and what did you get done? Do you know if he travels to fort lauderdale?

Yes he is mobile, as for the price you may need to call him so he can quote you. He did a non-corrective detail, wash, clay, wax, sealant. PM me and I'll send you his particulars.

MiamiDave recommended him and so will I. He did an amazing job on my car, 2+hrs just on the interior and wheels!

PM me for his phone number. He just did a second "detail" on mine today (really just tightened everything up), and I requested that he add an additional coat of zaino polish.

We also discovered a couple of paint dots from something that splashed up on the door I'd seen it there a few weeks ago, and just thought it was road smut! Thankfully came off easily with the claybar, helped by the coat of zaino which makes the skin slippery.

I'm waiting for today's before/after shots to see if the additional coat changed the look of the car (it's supposed to).

Here you go Dave. Thanks again for letting me work on such a beautiful car. Great customers like you make it worthwhile.

This type is for the car enthusiast by the car enthusiast.

Can't wait to show off some of my more extensive corrective details that really show off my capabilities.

----


Interlagos Blue M5

I worked on this car a few weeks ago. Owner was interested in putting down an additional application of a Zaino sealant. Nothing special, Light interior cleaning, conditioning of common areas, dressing of common areas, wipe down, and vac. Exterior paint was washed, spot clayed, and sealed with Zaino Z2pro.Exhaust was polished out with Klasse AIO and #0000 steel wool.

Before
As you will see, the car was very neat and not in much need of work, so I took the extra time earned to add special touches hear and there where I knew the customer would appreciate.







"Love Zaino's beading".

Before and after extra coat of Z2 pro. Can you tell a difference? I barely can.










Afters





All trim was previously protected with ZAIO, so this this I went over it with Optimum Instant Detailer

Ken/Luis that Space Grey looks great in those shots

I'm trying to compare the before and after to see if the additional coat shows up on the camera (I'm thinking the after looks deeper and more glossy, but could be time of day and camera angle-what do you think?):

After:

Luis ur work is well worth any kind of wait, AWESOME JOB!

Dave I think lighting always has alot to do with it, nevertheless in a couple of your after pics the Interlagos Blue looks so rich and deep. It really is an amazing color, I'm thinking thats my next color if I stay with the M5/6.
