Just popping on to give some advice!

Some environmental fallout is heading our way. The smoke and ash from the Minnesota and Canadian wildfires are getting bad. Aside from the personal health hazards [which I'm not qualified to talk about].. there are other hazards you should be taking into consideration [which i am slightly qualified to talk about! πŸ‘¨β€πŸ”¬]

Wildfire ash can certainly damage your cars paint physically and chemically. The ash and particulate that falls onto your car is abrasive which can definitely mar and scratch your clearcoat. My suggestion is to not wipe it off your painted surfaces.. glass is ok. Leaving it on your car is not ideal either. When mixed with the dew in the morning, rainfall, sprinkles, whatever the water source, it turns alkaline. It can lead to waterspotting on paint, glass, plastics and etch into your clearcoat and ruining your ceramic coating and PPF.

What to do! If youre the type that is a DIY'er.. wash your car with a pH neutral soap. Most all over the counter soaps are neutral or the one on my website is as well πŸ™ƒ. If you cant find time to do it yourself, this would be the only time I suggest you go to an automatic car wash, preferably a touchless.

Be safe and keep your car clean! 🫧πŸͺ£

This 2008 zo6 C6 corvette got it all. This was by far the most indepth.. lets call it, restoration, Ive done. Front to back, top to bottom, nothing was overlooked. From paint correction to touch ups, installing aftermarket parts to protecting everything, this zo6 looks like it just rolled off the assembly line.

Full Breakdown:
- 3 step paint correction & wetsanding

This Ferrari 308 GTB is 1 of 100 that made it's way over from Italy. What makes this even more rare is the fact this was made entirely out of fiberglass, except the hood which is aluminum. Later models have an all metal body.

After months of restoration work, paint and body by Tony Hilt, I finished up the paint with a few steps in the polishing process and a nice layer of ceramic coating.

The Ferrari is now going back to the owner for final assembly! Ciao! 🀌

Do you Mopar fans know what you're looking at? 1 of 6 made, factory promotion 'Cudas for the 1971 model year 🀘

Before I got my hands on it, Tony Hilt had resprayed a few items and worked his magic to bring it back to showroom condition.

I performed a 1 step polish to rejuvenate the previous restoration and ceramic coated all painted surfaces. Still has some minor mechanical maintenance being done so the Shaker isnt on just yet.

I know you're thinking.. Ryan, who's this Tony guy you're talking about? Well, expect more collaborations coming between us. He is my cousin and responsible for my chevy s10 that many of you know. 22 years ago [although I feel it's only been 5] he did all the body work and paint to it, among other things and to this day still looks like it rolled out of the bodyshop yesterday.

If you're in the market for a high end restoration on your classic, exotic or eclectic, custom paint and body work, please contact him or I and I will forward his information!

🚫 My books are still closed. I have a plethora of appointments I need to get through before I can even think of scheduling.
