What a beast.
38 footer wash
Wouldn’t have been so bad if my pressure washer didn’t just randomly die on my half way through. 🤦♂️
Cleaned up the roof/seals, wash with wax on the body, cleaned all glass, wheels/tires, and removed all rubber marring from the slide out seals.

15 year old vinyl lettering is so much fun!
-no one, ever. 👎
8 hours later and all company lettering and adhesive is removed. This was a deletter only. No polishing to remove oxidation as the trailer is onto its new owner.
Unfortunately, there is no quick and easy way to remove old, brittle, thin lettering. Lots of elbow grease, trying to no burn your finger tips with the heat gun, and not overwork your fingers by lifting it off without ripping it into pieces. Even eraser wheels are never a gaurantee as I found only using it for 1 section of adhesive made sence. The rest was able to easily be removed with chemical means.

Always a great feeling to continue to serve repeat clients 🙏

When using the right chemicals make all the difference in removing stubborn old brake dust…. Just a quick wash on my sisters truck because I couldn’t stand these wheels anymore 😝

Car washes are not your friend.
They ruin your clear coat!
This Explorer had less than 60k miles! It really needed more polishing but that is more time.
Interior detail
2 step paint correction
Ceramic coat paint/glass/trim/wheel faces/door jams
We are focusing more on ceramic coatings and maintenance details these days so reach out if you’d like to get on a monthly, MOBILE, maintenance schedule!

Late night to wrap up ceramic coating a Tremor. Next to it, under cover, is the 1973 Baja Bronco I ceramic coated as well.
Paint, glass, trim, door jams, and wheel faces. That canopy adds a lot of extra surface area!

Made a trip to Roseburg Saturday afternoon to ceramic coat this sweet . It’s way too big of a bike for my short little legs 😂 I think there is a height requirement before riding one of these.
*Long post alert*
Of all the details I have been trusted with over the 3 short years in business, this is by far and away the one that I will not forget.
Jake contacted me through a friend about getting his truck cleaned up before Friday AM (5 days away). When he called I was already prepared to say “I’m sorry, I’m too busy and cannot right now”. Which was true, I still had 1 job to finish, and another showing up soon. But after talking with him, there was no way I could say ‘No’.
You see, Jake’s grandpa bought this 1976 F100 brand new off the lot. It passed through to his son, a coworker, and back to his Grandpa a few years later where he drove it daily. As time would have it, Grandpa aged and Old Blue sat for over 20 years in the garage where he would say “One day [I’ll get it running again]”.
But time went on.
Recently, Jake put some hours into getting it running again and he said his Grandpa was so proud and happy. Jake tried to give his grandpa a ride in it, but he was not able to get in and said maybe another time. Sadly, very shortly after that, Grandpa passed.
Jake really wanted to get Old Blue cleaned up so he could give his Grandpa one last ride to his final resting place. Between my regular day job, I worked tirelessly on restoring as much as I could on this.
Afterall, I saw myself as Jake and my love for my Grandpa I had. It was as though I was doing this for my own Grandpa as well. After riding along in it to my favorite “after” photo location, I captured him with it.
I received a loving note from Grandma and an invitation to attend the funeral.
At first I obliged and thanked them. But the next day, I had nothing going on during the service so I drove to Lebanon to pay my respects to Grandpa. There, I also met Grandma and shared a tearful hug as she told me about Grandpa and Jake’s loving bond they shared. They even shared the same birthday together. We said our goodbyes and I left.
To all the Grandpas out there.

After an almost 3 hour motorcycle ride this afternoon, I stopped by to check out a few of the classics. Naturally I had to have a photo taken with the one I recently detailed. I wish I brought my bike next to it for a photo though. Oh well.
Great day for a long ride with a friend!

1973 Baja Bronco by Bill Stroppe and a 2021 Baja tribute Bronco.
A childhood dream turned to reality. The story behind this 1973 Bronco (last photo) is pretty cool. And of course that is only the condensed version.
The top of the bronco was poorly finished when painted. Terrible orange peel that we needed wet sanding down to 1200 grit in many spots. After wetsanding and polishing down to a glass finish, I applied a ceramic coating to the interior, door jams, exterior, wheel wells, engine bay, even underneath the body, drivetrain, & frame rails where accessible.
The tribute Bronco, which spent its first year on back order from , received much of the same treatment.
The following weekend they were both entered into the car show. The 1973 received 5th place out of 200 for its first show ever.

I got the opportunity to polish and ceramic coat this absolutely gorgeous Chevy this week.
Look for it this Friday evening. I need to be there so I can take more photos of it because I am terrible at before/afters.

Last week I went out to to clean up their Mack dump truck, interior & exterior detail with polish of their Ram pickup. Also did an interior clean up and polish on this excavator cab.

Hello again!!
If you have looked for me on Google lately, you may have noticed it says “temporarily closed”. While that’s partially true, I am doing mobile for now and very much limiting myself to referral-and current/past- clients only. Very limited openings, and even less interior-only detailing. For this, I apologize but I can refer you to a few other detailers.
I’ve been radio silent for awhile now but it’s about time I make a few posts again! Not only have I been working my regular job with a lot of on-call time which makes it challenging to dedicate time to detail without having to drop everything and rush off to an emergency.
I have also been getting some fantastic details lately! Like this OSHA approved set-up to polish and ceramic coat this gorgeous RV front end. The more you look, the worse it is 😂
Thank you all for the support! 🙏🫶

This alone makes me want to start mobile detailing regularly 😆

Pre-Sale detail time for this Ram.

These minivans are pretty slick today. Nothing like the old square body dodge caravan like when I was growing up 😂

“Nice truck”!

Today’s neighborly detail.
I’ve picked up and delivered several elders vehicles to detail for them.
This customer recognized me from my website while I was at the park with my youngest son.
I delivered an exterior wash, door jam cleaning, and an interior detail. As well as a headlight restoration which was really needed.
Another happy customers!

Escalade interior looking 🤌🔥

Hard to deny the beauty of this little car!
![Photos from PNW Auto Detail's post](https://img4.findglocal.com/664/437/723683616644372.jpg)
When this F150 came to me, it had seen some cleaner days for sure. Full interior detail, exterior detail, paint correction, and 10 year rated System X Max ceramic coating on paint, wheels faces, and door jams. Along with a glass coating.

Still like the convenience of the car wash?
I get it.
What it does to your vehicle is remove an important layer of clear coat that protects your vehicles paint from UV damage leading to clear coat failure, oxidation, and fading.
This 2018 Ford is a victim of car wash damage. Stayed tuned for final results.

Been a little radio silent lately (ok a lot), but we are still here. Here are a few vehicles over the last couple of weeks.
Due to the significant uptick in my fulltime job responsibilities, I have scaled back from detailing lately the last couple of months and am only scheduling 1-2 on weekends only. Unless you have a vehicle that can stay overnight, I am currently booked out to the end of April.

Did you know we also detail bikes??
Just like any adventure, the worst part is always the clean up afterwards.
A thorough cleaning on this Trek Fuel EX mountain bike followed with a polish and applying a ceramic coating on all *safe & appropriate* surfaces! Now mud (err, clay) will wash off so much easier afterwards so you can prepare for the next ride.

A 20 year old Highlander with original floormats still looks pretty good. Of course the drivers mat is a little worn and permanently altered, but nonetheless, good condition overall.
Interior detail with extraction of seats and floormats. A rinseless exterior wash, and headlight restoration.
And a 5⭐️ Google review left!🙏
