Thanks Lars,
Do you have a complete interior/exterior package as well?

Do you mean the Ultimate Interior and the Ultimate Exterior combined?

Please email me and we can discuss :) contact @ makeitshine.ca (remove spaces)

Hey Kaval,

I'll definitely make an appointment with you sometime in the spring.

Too bad the exterior cleaning won't last - there's a tree over hanging my driveway...the bird poo...it's everywhere, everyday!

Remove that bird poo RIGHT AWAY! Pick up some Meguiar's Quick Detailer and spray it on. Bird poo is one of the worst things you can have on your paint as it will etch into the clearcoat.

No worries, just keep the salt off the car and let me know when u want to book!

About the Quick Detailer (can't edit posts, sorry for the doubling)

Spray it on, let it sit for 20-30 seconds then wipe it off with a microfiber towel. Wipe in an up and away motion so you don't drag the crap across the finish and leave fine scratches behind.

I haven't done a bike yet, but I'm always up to try something new ;) Paint is paint :p Funny you mention that, I was contemplating getting into bike detailing.
As for your pop's ride, send me an email, I'd love to hear more ;)

thanks for kind words!

the ultimate package varies between car. What I do is take a look at the condition of the paint and give you my recommendation to get the paint as close to 100% defect free as possible (100% correction is hard, and sometimes not the best for the paint because our vehicles are DDs). For the ultimate package, it can (and has) taken me anywhere from 7-20 hours depending on the condition of the car. The 1 step polish can take me 5-6 hours.

The synthetic sealant treatment is not diamond coat. It's a form of paint protection (the synthetic sealant) and does not do any paint cleaning or polishing; it's 100% protection.

Would it be similar idea to something like the Klasse sealant then?

yes indeed! Gotta use Klasse AIO first though (if it's the first treatment of Klasse Sealant Glaze).

Yes makeitshine sounds popular.

When I was at the dealer recently, I noticed they had a little price chart for detailing services that were not that expensive. How does this compare?
