    After going through his website I noticed he does mostly new and exotic cars. I think it takes more skill and risk to restore something like this:

    I was emailed recently about polishing out this 1941 Plymouth. Maybe too far gone. What do you think?


    or this,

    Hey everyone, A guy I know bought a 2003 F150, 15K on the odometer, in a beautiful red metallic! The problem is that the dealership sent the truck out to a "professional detailing shop" who, proceeded to instill the worst rotary buffer burns and holograms I have ever seen, and I have seen a lot!!! I suggested



    point being on his web site it says "he is the best". I mean you can't get any better than perfect. And if you look at the difference between the look on a mercedes Paul Dalton did, and the mercedes Superior Shine did. Paul used an expensive Zymol wax and Superior Shine used #21. They both look very well detailed but man, you just can't get any better than this:

      I was bored and going though his website again today and noticed that he offers P21S, Meguiar's and Zaino waxes for an option. It's just that his favorite it Zymol. I also read an article that had every step he used on a black enzo. He does detail every little thing, like the whole inside of the rim (cleans, clays, polishes, waxes). He also details door jams and applies a protectant. Although he charges a lot, he does a good job, and people are willing to pay for his services.
