    Another Magnum is My victim

    Hey everyone, this is my first real post on the site and just want to introduce myself a little and what I do. I started detailing about 5 years ago for a near by used car dealership. I worked there for about 2 years before getting a new job. Since leaving the dealer I have been detailing friends and family vehicles on the weekends and evening. The thought of starting a detailing business has lingered in my mind for over a year now, I have done the research and am officially starting! This is my Second official Customer and thought it would be appeailing as it is a magnum!


    Now I have to worn you these pics are going to shock and scare some as this car is horrific. I took these at their apartment before it got to late so I could get some decent pics! Yes we do pick up/Drop off service, We also have Mobile Detailing as well. Couldn't do this one mobile because of the building they live in!

    Interior:



    Gotta love when people tidy up their cars for you a little













    Exterior:

    These cars are famous for Bug Splatter,


    Hub Caps Havent been cleaned in a while and are heavily soiled with caked on brake dust




    Back View


    And Last but not Least....The Engine







    It appears as though I have a lot of work ahead of me! I'll have pics up tomorrow of the during/finished prouct. This customer is receiving:

    Complete Interior Detail
    Complete Engine Shampoo and Detail
    Complete Exterior Wash, Clayed, and High Speed Polish using a 3000 rpm variable speed buffer with Foam Pad.
    Rims and Tires cleaned/Dressed

    This Customer Also has a little damage done to quarter panel so if anyone here is into body work or knows of local shops that are decent post them up and I'll have the customer come by and take a look at the site!

    Thanks for looking!

    Welp, that's cool and all. Welcome to the forum!.



    But hey bud, just a heads up. If your promo'n your business, you need to sign up as a vendor. IMO, your right on the boarder.
    From wild to extra wild we got you covered with crap ya never knew you needed.





    The first 6.1 transformation and it all went down hill from there.

    Question

    The owner of that car should be ashamed of themself.

    My car is actually cleaner today than the day I picked it up from the dealer. It's in showroom condition after 15 months of daily driving.

    I noticed the owner left his wallet on the front seat...not a good idea...

    Good Lord. Have they never heard of a trash can?

    If you can solve your problem, then what is the need of worrying? If you cannot solve it, then what is the use of worrying?
