One Hell(cat) of a ride - 11 Hellcats details & counting (enjoy the pics)
Windows and Wheels Auto Detailing, Dodge Hellcat's and CQuartz Finest just seem to go hand in hand.
Its been just over 1 year now since our first detail and CQuartz Finest install on a Dodge Hellcat. Since then we've done a total of 11 Hellcats (and plenty of Scat Pack / Scat Pack Shakers as well).
Being that we all have a love for sweet cars, I wanted to share some of a nicer photo's we've taken of some of the Hellcat's we've worked on.
Enjoy!
From our first Hellcat detail...pretty cool background:
While we have done many colors, white has definitely been the most popular. After full correction and Finest - even white glowed.
We've got them in black or white
Owner of this Hellcat called it his "Bad *** family sedan" lol
Most recently we did two Bright White Challengers - one with Brass Monkey Wheels, the other with matte black....both were pulled and coated with 2 coats of CQuartz Finest:
Wheels back on - and coat #3 of CQuartz Finest being removed from the paint in our polishing room:
The week after we completed the above Hellcat, another Hellcat.org member brought his in - they were basically twins
A little sun down shot:
Of course when it comes to black - we specialize in making it look flawless:
This one came with quite a few defects (sanding marks mostly) from the factory:
After full paint correction and polishing to a high gloss...it looked the way it should:
This one was taken this past week - After a full year of daily driving - having us wash it Bi-Weekly make sure the paint still looked wet.
We have also added on clear bra (paint protection film / ppf) to our list of services. Suntek being applied to protect the full front of this beast (hood,fenders,bumper,mirrors). This owner also added on a piece behind the rear wheels to protect from kick up...you know...incase he were to spin the tires
We've also had the pleasure of working on the metallic black (also with brass monkey wheels!)
When your paint looks this good - you have no reason not to Smile!
Oh yeah!
This is the only Plum Crazy Hellcat we've seen so far...this was after polishing to prep the paint for clear bra:
Baking on CQuartz Finest to hard cure it and get that last bit of extra gloss:
I think it worked - what do you think?
Of course as mentioned, all of these lovelies have been protected by the best, CQuartz Finest - the most exclusive paint protective coating around.
As said in the title - it's been one hell of a ride working on all these beautiful beasts. We never get tired of hearing them roll down the street to (or from) our shop.
Hope that everyone enjoyed the eye candy.
We constantly update our Facebook ( www.facebook.com/windowsandwheels ) with new pictures of whatever we're working on that week if anyone cares to follow our
fun journey. We also post up pictures and videos of detailing tips for those DIY'ers out there - gotta pay it forward!
Thank you as always - feedback is always welcome (and encouraged).
Take care all!

Even the red tape job on the black Challenger looks cool. Congrats on the Mopar business.
Bi-weekly wash, wow! Even if I had the money I don't know if I could legitimize that. Good for you and you business though.

Amazing work as always! Looking forward to my first Hellcat... I have one booked for later in July. Any tips on what to use for compound and polishes? Car is brand new coming to me straight from the dealership.
Thanks in advance! and keep up the great work!

Lol, by bi-weekly i mean once every two weeks, not 2 times a week (that would be pretty crazy!). Thanks for checking it out - i liked how the red tape looked too

Hello Ian - congrats on booking your first hellcat .
Thats great its coming straight to you...even if its filthy thats what you want - no hands on it before you.
Ive used a few different things depending on the condition - HD Adapt worked great for us but depending on temp it can be a bit hard to wipe off. M100 with a MF pad or M205 with a MF pad followed up by a foam pad and Reflect is great (IF you even have to do multiple steps). If you only have to do a single step then Reflect or 205 on a medium pad will do the trick without much fuss. The hardest one to work on was the gloss black Charger...the rest weren't too bad

Great stuff Will. Congrats on the new shop first time I've seen it , looks awesome. I remember when you guys were working out of your garage at home and kicking out some serious results. I wish you continued success my friend.
There really is a world beyond wax!

Quick pass of HD Polish with a white buff n shine pad on my Billet Silver Scat Pack and it was popping! The car was sitting on showroom floor for a little bit so it had a couple of light mars / defects to get out.
