    Just a simple wash and wax..... so why is there a crowd gathering?

    We were recently contacted by Bugatti USA to detail a Bugatti for an episode of Jay Leno's Garage. I was pleasantly surprised to find out it was going to be "Sophia," a 2013 Bugatti Veyron Grand Sport Vitesse.

    I first laid eyes on her in Monterey when we were sent there to detail a number of Bugattis.

    That is where I fell in love with her! As a matter of fact I kept the decal that she worn during Monterey car week and put it on my van (seen here behind the Thunderbird) as a memento of the summer Sophia and I spent together.



    While in Monterey we dialed her in proper with a very thorough cleaning and polishing. Today she would only need a little luv'n to get her ready for the show.

    I lightly polished and waxed her beautiful exterior with my G110v2, Microfiber Finishing disc and D301 Finishing Wax.







    We happened to be very near the home of a client of mine that owns a few exotics. I invited him over to see Sophia. He arrived in his 458 Italia that we detail for him on a regular basis.



    About two hours later she was look'n sweet again.

    Then it was time to tuck her in ... The gentleman helping me with the cover (or am I helping him?) Is Bugatti driver Robert "Butch" Leitzinger.

    Sweet dreams Sophia.









    I LOVE MY JOB!!

    I'm so jealous!!! Beautiful work takes a lot if trust by the driver to have u touch that car. That's when u know your doing great work that people notice and that you take pride in your work.
