Security camera footage...
..reveals a business owner who regularly forgets to take before pictures.

All jokes aside. A friend brought me his recently acquired Honda Fit to have the nasty interior in for a full detail. When he dropped it off he said, "I tried plast-x, but that lasted a few hours. Do whatever you can to make these better. I can't see anything at night."

Here are mediocre pictures of the quick restoration. If you have trouble seeing at night, or just don't like the look of cloudy or foggy lenses. Stop by The Wax Shop for some clarity on the issue.

The husband's truck...

I got busy Friday and didn't get a chance to post the husband's truck. This Silverado is an absolute gem. If I remember correctly, this is at least the 8th time I've had an opportunity to wash and protect this truck.

A handful of years ago we got him the fender flares and protected the inner metal of the bedsides. That will hopefully keep this truck standing tall and ready to haul many years to come.

As requested, we also cleaned the interior of his windshield. We will do that for anyone at any time. Just stop by and ask us to clean that pesky hard to reach windshield.

If you want to keep the paint looking the best on your vehicle, call or text us today!

Returning clients are the best.

This couple has been bringing me their vehicles for over 5 years for routine maintenance interior and exterior protection.

When they bought this terrain a couple years ago, The Wax Shop was their first stop. We helped them by outfitting the whole vehicle with Weathertech HP floor liners. A rubber style liner that fits the vehicle perfectly and helps to keep the carpet floors looking new.

Yesterday was the wife's terrain, today is the husband's Chevy Silverado. Stay tuned for that gem. I'll post about it later today.

If you have questions about protecting your vehicle from the elements, whether it's interior / exterior or both, feel free to stop by the shop.

Getting a vehicle for a good deal is great. What do you do when that vehicle has survived 5 kids and years of neglect? ? ?

Bring it to The Wax Shop! We spent the extra time needed to get this filthy interior clean and comfortable to drive. The gross feeling (and smell) of just driving this traverse into the shop was enough for me. We don't want anyone driving around feeling like they need a shower when they get home.

The customers were in shock when they came to pick it up. They couldn't believe we were able to get it as clean as we did. I reassured them that we do our best to touch everything you can see and some places you can't see. Those hidden places also hold smells, trash and dirt that can be a future problem. There was so much change, pencils and junk stuck in the track, they wouldn't move. By going the extra mile, we were able to get the second row track system to function properly and smoothly.

Call or text us today to schedule your vehicle for an interior detail.

A little while back a friend brought us an unusual project. This never titled, never rode 1993 Moto Guzzi Daytona 1000 has given it's new owner something to brag about. Taking home best in show at the AMA motorcycle hall of fame bike night on Saturday. Thanks to Merkle's Cycle & Storage for the opportunity to care for such an incredible machine.
