Brian, beautiful collection of trophies in your stable.
Moe, Very fine work from an artist. I too , in my own way, share the passion for detailing. Big Daddy Kuddos to you Bro.

Thank you for the kind words SmoothCab. It's nice to finally have your work admired by those who can appreciate the hard work that went into each and every car. I started my company in 1995; it's just in the past year that everyone is noticing our work. I knew the day would come. I just had to find the right client to showcase my work. Brian was at the right place at the right time; and so was I. Not only does Brian appreciate the work as a client, he understands what was done to his cars. I hope he takes pictures of his new addition on top of the garage. It’s truly a sight to be seen. Seeing his collection and his home makes me want to work even harder to attain his level of success. What a life…
Please feel free to ask any questions bmoores...we might start this thread in the detailing forum if it becomes too technical and boring for those more interested in the cars than detailing tips.
Moe my detailing process goes something like this:
I use dawn to strip all wax off the car, followed by claybar and rewash with car washing soap (usually zaino). After that I apply a coat of zaino Z2 followed by their detailing spray. I don't use the dawn everytime I wash probably about every ten or so coats of zaino. Now that my car is three years old the paint is in better condition than most but being the fanatic I am I still notice some hairline scratches when i'm up close to the paint. While not noticeable while looking at the car from ten feet away it still drives me nuts I want to get that real think feel back in the paint. Any suggestions Moe. I'm willing to invest plenty of time.
Thanks in advance.

M3j0n, I'm not sure what flooring Brian has in his garage.
Ben, your routine seems to be fine. You shouldn't need to wax your car more than 3 times per year. If your car is at the level I think it is, and hopefully your detailing skills as well, you may want to invest in a Porter Cable Dual Action polisher. Theyr're usually around $130. Use the Meguiar's SoftBuff pads and their #83 compund w/ the 8006 pad. Then follow up with a good polish, I like Zymol's HD-Cleasne using the 9006 pad. Then apply the same HD-Cleanse polish by hand and you're ready to wax. I would recommend Zymol's Titanium or Concourse glaze. If you maintain your car weekly, you should get 3-5 months of not waxing. By the way guys, I'm starting a thread on the detailing forum out of respect for others who do not want to hear us talk shop. I'll post a link here.
