The Big Wrap Up . . .
The products and techniques talked about here are
best thought of as suggestions. They are by no means
the final word on the subject. It is however, what we have found works
well and feel comfortable with. But we encourage you to experiment,
observe the results and make your own judgments. This is what a good
detailer does. In doing so, you will become a better detailer and your
car will look better.
So why do we do it? It is a lot of work . Family,
friends and neighbors question your sanity. No matter how good a job you
do, there is room for improvement. And the harder you work, the quicker
it is undone by a mud puddle or tree sap.
Some people justify it by the envious reactions of
friends and strangers who wish their cars looked half as good. Others
point to the resale value of a car in excellent condition and insist
that they are merely protecting their investment. Individuals who use
left brain reasoning will tell you that a properly detailed car lasts
longer.
But those who use such reasoning are missing the
point. And if you consider washing your car to be a chore, then you are,
shall we say, "not with the program". The real reason can be found in
the automobile experience itself. Anybody can own a car. But having
respect for the machinery by keeping it new despite the ravages of
time, .... well, that takes someone special.
