Default Reflections Auto Detailing

Hello all,

A while ago I posted a thread asking where everyone thought I should place a detailing business. I am located in Addison and wanted it to be close to that, but one bun in the oven later and I was not able to open that like I had hoped.

However, I am doing some mobile detailing until I [we] can get a place with a personal garage and I can work from there.

Here are some vehicles I have done in the past, I know none of them are 350z's (except the engine detail I did on my own) but being a Z lover, I decided to post here first.

If anyone is interested in having their vehicle(s) detailed, just shoot me a PM.

You pretty much need to re polish the vehicle to get them out. Those holograms are just as bad as swirls. It just makes me upset that body shops don't know how to properly do it.

Shoot me a pm, and pictures if you can. I should be able to get them out. As stated above, just needs a proper polish.
