This is not a lighting trick. This is what it looks like when you remove 130k miles of carbon buildup from your exhaust tips. 1 product. 2 microfiber towels. 2 variations of sand paper. Do you see the difference?

Has it been a minute since my last post? It has, but for good reason. October is my last month detailing until 2027. We are already fully starting winter projects here at the Allison residence. That does not mean we do not have openings. So for my last "Be-Nice" winner and for Michael Moroni , please take note of the following openings. I am tracking both of you, so if I need to make a few exceptions to the following, that is perfectly fine. If you would like to get your vehicle cleaned up for winter here are my current available appointments: 10/13, 10/15, 10/27, and 10/29 all at 4:30PM. I also have 10/18 and 10/24 at 10AM. Until then, enjoy this short clip of the next generation learning the proper way to detail:)

Today was another great day for detailing. I was given the privilege of detailing another "Be-Nice" winner's vehicle. If memory serves me correctly they wished to be left anonymous. So I will only post a few interior completed photos. Thank you for all that you do and keep up the great work! It also reminds me, Tyler Gardner, do we still have one more to give away?? Have a great evening everyone!

I know this week has been quite. From a 4-day work conference for Veterans Affairs, to driving to get yet another vehicle, and my son's FB game. I have been busy. And although my son is only 14 (turns 15 in Feb)..... I think this is a pretty sweet first car. I also think I have his full attention now when we start to not only detail the car (it came dirty) but also upgrade/maintain it!!! Teach them young everyone. Although for the next 18 months, this car will be "free" for him.... it will not be once he gets his license. He is already talking about getting a job which is another reason for the purchase. Anyways, here is his 2015 Lexus IS250 F-Sport AWD.

It was another busy day at the shop. This Telluride is all cleaned up and ready for its next adventure! No before photos as it was really well maintained but just needed the Sal's touch.

No long post this evening. It was a fun evening of watching the C Squad FB team win in overtime! I do have some comparison photos from this Dodge Ram however. I believe a major improvement was made.

Long read..... Time to call it for tonight.... I have 10 hours invested into just the interior of this vehicle and I still have some finishing work to do. But that can happen tomorrow morning as 6am comes pretty quickly!

I am going to take a moment though and try to really drive this home. I detail because for whatever reason, I love doing it. For everyone out there, that old saying is very very true. If you are able to do something you love, it is not a job! For myself.... It is a challenge.

The challenge is simple. Work hard. Provide amazing results. Repeat. No amount of money can ever replace the amount of satisfaction you get when a customer tells you their vehicle is the same or better than the day they bought it. Just happened again today and I am beyond grateful. Hell, I just had a customer this weekend come and buy, although I tried to give it to them, the interior cleaner I use. Along with proper instruction. That is a story within itself....but then again, it was not for a pastel yellow Ford Focus....;)

Back to point. I do not believe that the service I provide should cost you $300, $400, or God knows what. This does not include paint correction or ceramic coatings..... just your average detail. Take the time to look up the national average for product costs for an average detail. $10-$25 dollars per vehicle.
Here is what truly grinds my gears.....in this area, the big name detailers are going to discredit me. I either don't know what I am doing or use cheap product. For the record, everything I use is between $45-100 per gallon.
The best part though is you can take the most expensive brand, extremely priced, and there is literally a YouTube video of how to make that same product from under your sink.... let that sink in. We all use products that work for us. And that formula is ever changing. I do love the hate though. I am willing to bet that I am 3 digits cheaper on this Ram detail. I would project half if not better. Here is an early teaser though.
