Yow! I hope your garage-keeper insurance is paid up!

Nice driveway; is that actually tile, pavers, or poured concrete with lines scribed?

Yes it is, however even with that if i cause damage (burn paint etc.) it's my dime.

It is actually a texture done by a company called Concrete Artisans in Lake Worth, Fl
Sadly, it looked much better hundreds of cars ago.

Yes it is. It was fun to do. Thank you!



Nice work, bet that ibrid got some work.

I did a lot of the vehicle with the iBrid. I did place that no other machine could fit.
So much so I used it a lot with the AC adaptor rather than the batteries.
Interesting...after a while the iBrid started feeling a bit warm.



Nice!

Thank you.

The client was good peeps too. That made it even better.


Beautiful car. The paint looks incredible!!

Thank you. That is very kind.

Actually no??? No more so than any other vehicle. Kinda odd isn't it?
Whether it's a Lambo or a Yugo. Paint is paint and work is work.

It still looks pretty cool to me--up north here most everything is asphalt although in some of the hoity-toity areas I've seen partial or full concrete pavers. Talking about me is reminding me of those pictures Mike@DedicatedPerfection posted of his work area with the tile floor and some other detailer's pictures from Europe with tiled garages...some interesting geographic and cultural differences.

Anyway, congrats on the detail, cool car!
